Meet the team
I graduated from Hanover Vet School in 1992 – over 17 years ago! I moved to the UK in 1997 where I initially worked here at Horwich as a vet. In 2002 I was delighted to become a Joint Venture Partner at Bolton Companion Care, alongside Victoria and Jill.
We look after all kinds of small animals, and my special areas of interest are dermatology and internal medicine. At home I enjoy the company of my cat Tommy and in my spare time I like to read, travel or go horse riding.
Nancy qualified as a Vet in 2001 from the Royal Veterinary College in London, though she is originally from Manchester. Returning to near her home town, Nancy has worked at Companion Care Bolton since May 2007. She is interested in all aspects of small animal medicine. She lives near the Peak District with her husband, 2 children and their cat. If she gets any spare time she enjoys reading and yoga.
Victoria Armstrong

Victoria qualified as a veterinary nurse in January 2000. After joining Companion Care in February 2000 she became a Joint Venture Partner in 2002. She enjoys all aspects of veterinary nursing and loves all animals, but ultimately sees herself as a cat person. Victoria has a particular interest in small animal behaviour and weight management.
In her spare time Victoria enjoys amateur dramatics & can be seen treading the boards with her husband at Adlington Music & Arts Society. Victoria has a Staffordshire Bull Terrier called Daisy & 2 cats named Elphaba & Nesarose, after characters from her favourite musical, Wicked.
Jill qualified as a veterinary nurse in 1990 and joined Companion Care in 1997, becoming a Joint Venture Partner at Bolton in 2002.
Jill has a keen interest in preventative health care and enjoys working in the operating theatre.
Outside of work Jill lives with her husband and two rescue cats, and she spends her time looking after her horse and competing in dressage competitions.
Emma qualified as a Veterinary Nurse in 2004 and has been here since May 2006. Emma loves her job and has a particular interest in small animal nutrition and is currently working on the “Hills Veterinary Nutrition Advisor” course.
Outside of work, she has had many pets over the years including a cat, hamsters and rabbits. Emma is also a keen follower of football and is a season ticket holder (mentioning no names!).
Keeley qualified as a Veterinary nurse in June 2010. She joined Companion Care (Bolton) team in March 2016. She enjoys nursing in-patients and assisting in the operating theatre. Outside of work Keeley enjoys spending time with her partner, 2 children and her 2 cats.
Cara has always wanted to work with animals, studying Animal & Equine Management at college. She joined the Companion Care Bolton team in July 2016. Cara lives in Manchester with her partner, two children and her cat Missy. In her spare time, she enjoys reading and baking lots of scrummy cakes.
