Donna has been working closely with my assistance dog Narla. Helping us keep Narla fit and healthy to perform her daily tasks. We would be lost without her and highly recommend! A book of knowledge and support

In August, our pup Hector tore his left CCL (after already tearing his right CCL in 2022). We really wanted to avoid surgery and take a more conservative management as he had a very difficult recovery with his first surgery. And thankfully, we found Donna. She has given us clear guidance that works with our schedule, not against us. Within 2 months of working with Donna, Hector is enjoying his walks, bearing weight on his leg, and seems so much happier. If an issue arises, she is always available to adjust the plan. We know this recovery process will be long & slow but we are elated by the progress he has made in such a short amount of time. I highly recommend Animal Physiotherapy!

Donna has been amazing helping my aging guinea pig who has arthritis! Even after just one month of exercises we saw a huge improvement in his mobility. I would highly recommend Donna and Animal Physiotherapy.

Our vet recommended Donna to us so we could help build our dog’s strength and mobility. Donna has been incredible. She gives clear and helpful advice and now our dog is stronger and happier. I would highly recommend Animal physiotherapy!

I have been visiting Donna for a little while now with our 10 year-old Labrador who was experiencing some lameness. I simply cannot fault her service, her friendliness, the depth of her knowledge, or the positive results we are seeing after just a few sessions! All of the treatments and plans are personalised exactly to our dog's needs, and she is always at the end of the phone if there are any questions or anything to discuss. Since our dog is in her senior years I am planning to keep up the sessions with Donna on a long-term basis to ensure she is as healthy and happy as I can possibly ensure! The reviews here speak for themselves - use Donna with absolute confidence!

Donna is amazing!!! She has worked with both of our dogs, most recently Louie. When we first arrived he was struggling with his leg post op and is 80% better already, she will give you manageable targets to work towards and will take into consideration both pet and owner. She is very friendly and is amazing with animals, we would highly recommend her to anyone.

Donna is absolutely amazing and such a lovely person. Sadly our little Cavalier King Charles Spaniel had to have her back leg removed due to cancer in her knee. She has been seeing Donna for 2 1/2 years now and has improved considerably, to see her running you would not know she is missing a leg. She loves seeing Donna, she is very, very knowledgeable and passionate about what she does. We highly recommend her. Thank you Donna x
