Larissa grew up on a property just outside Gympie in SE QLD where her family had at least one of every animal possible. It came as no surprise when she announced she wanted to be a vet as Larissa was often found out in the shed or paddock nursing a sick and injured animals back to health. Once she was a little older, Larissa took charge of her family’s cattle and sheep and became heavily involved in the genetics and management side of the farm, a role she still enjoys from afar.
After moving to Townsville, she now lives with her two dogs, Aisla and Zuri, and in her free time she can be found showing her dogs at a Dog Show, kayaking, camping or gardening. Feel free to ask her anytime about your house plants too as she has over 40 and is nearly as passionate about her plants as she is about animals. Larissa has a very keen interest in all things horses but also firmly loves working with all creatures great and small. She is very much looking forward to being able to provide the best care possible for you and your pet and can’t wait to meet you all.
