Her career began training for British Horse Society (BHS) exams through which she achieved the BHS stage 4 (full) and stage 3 coach and has enjoyed a successful career both coaching and riding at home and as far afield as New Zealand.

Meet Hayley
Hayley’s path to Veterinary Physiotherapy began after growing up with many family dogs and horses, which oftentimes develop orthopaedic conditions that come with life, such as arthritis. By helping these animals, a passion for Veterinary Physiotherapy was born.
Hayley graduated university with a Bachelor's degree in Veterinary Physiotherapy and has treated many animals since working as a freelance Vet Physio, including professional agility dogs and working dogs. Hayley also holds a level 4 qualification in Animal Massage (Cert HE) and a level 5 qualification in Veterinary Rehabilitation (FdSc). Fully insured and registered with the International Register of Veterinary and Animal Physiotherapists (IRVAP), continued training is undertaken to ensure your dog receives the latest in veterinary care and physiotherapy treatment.
Hayley has found a distinct love of helping our geriatric, golden oldie canine patients find a new lease of life through veterinary physiotherapy. Our mission is to make every dog as comfortable, happy and healthy as possible, regardless of injury, age or condition.
Meet Maddie
Maddie is a qualified Veterinary Physiotherapist, holding a four-year Bachelor’s degree from Harper Adams University, which included a placement year with the Queen Mother Hospital for Animals at the Royal Veterinary College. She has been fully qualified since 2022 and joined the Wobbly Dog team in May 2023.
Maddie is registered with the International Register of Veterinary and Animal Physiotherapists (IRVAP).
Maddie is passionate about helping animals feel their best and has experience treating cats, dogs, and horses. Having grown up surrounded by a wide variety of animals—including cats, dogs, horses, tortoises, fish, and hamsters—her love for animals began at a young age. Her approach is caring and evidence-based, with treatments tailored to each individual to support recovery, improve mobility, and enhance overall quality of life.
Outside of work, Maddie enjoys gundog training and low-level agility with her cocker spaniel. Through this, she has a strong appreciation of the vital role physiotherapy plays in both the prevention and treatment of injury.
Meet Francesca
Francesca’s passion for animals began at a young age when she started riding horses. Her interest in the clinical side grew when her dog was diagnosed with hip dysplasia, sparking a deep curiosity for alternative treatments beyond traditional medications.
​
Since physiotherapy and hydrotherapy for animals were not well-developed in Italy, she decided to follow her dream career and moved to the UK in 2017. Here, she completed an FdSc in Equine Physical Therapies and Rehabilitation, followed by a BSc (Hons) in Equine Science, and earned a MSc in Veterinary Physiotherapy from The University of Nottingham.
​
Francesca's eagerness to learn is ongoing, and she is always keen to explore new rehabilitation techniques for canine and equine patients or expand her knowledge of pathology and physiology.
​
She is registered with the International Register of Veterinary and Animal Physiotherapy (IRVAP).
Our physiotherapy team are all members of the International Register for Veterinary and Animal Physiotherapists (IRVAP) which holds members to the highest standards.
One such standard is the completion of 25 hours of continued professional development (CPD) each year. Through CPD new skills are learned and old skills are fine-tuned whilst keeping up to date with the latest clinical research.
