Receptionist

Read Emma Barker bio

My name is Emma and I am a receptionist at Companion Care Scarborough. I joined the practice in October 2017, I have been here for 6 years now. This was my first time working at a Veterinary practice and I am loving the fact that every day brings something different; with the bonus of getting to meet all the lovely animals and clients.

I have 2 rabbits called Yo-Yo who is a Lop and Dottie who is a Netherland Dwarf. Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my fiancé and kids going for walks along the beach and going to see the steam trains at North Yorkshire Moors railway.

Christina Kaye

Veterinary Care Assistant

Read Christina Kaye bio

My name is Christina, and I am a Veterinary Care Assistant (VCA) which means I get to help to care for animals all day. I studied animal management at Askham Bryan College and have gained my level 2 diploma. I started my career here at Companion Care Scarborough just a few months ago which I have been very excited about as I have a passion for animals and love being able to care for them. You can also find me working on reception from time to time as I enjoy the personal interaction involved in building and maintaining good client relationships. When I'm not working I like to spend my time taking care of my own fur babies: I have 2 rabbits and 2 cats. My other passion in life is painting as I am a very creative person and I find painting is a very good outlet for my creativity.

Companion Care Scarborough is committed to bringing you affordable, high quality care via a modern, well equipped practice, including a lab, pharmacy, digital x-ray and ultrasound. Plus, on site car parking too!

The friendly team can't wait to meet all of their new clients!
