Support team

Heidi had previously worked for the Morley brothers at the Bridge Street Veterinary Centre for four years before becoming a civil servant. She then changed her career to that of a dog walker/dog groomer until in April 2015 Heidi joined the team at Tone Vets as a receptionist. Since then she has been a very valuable member of the admin team and recently was promoted to the position of practice manager. Heidi’s philosophy is simple: treat those around you fairly and with respect; a principle she follows in life, but will also apply to her colleagues and the clients of Tone Veterinary Centre.

When not at work, Heidi enjoys long country walks with Benny, her working Cocker Spaniel, who’s philosophy is even simpler; enjoy life to the fullest at full pace!

Sasha joined the practice in August 2019 – after working for eight years in two local veterinary practices. She is a qualified pet bereavement counsellor and has previously completed her animal first aid training. Outside of working, Sasha has the travel bug and loves to see and experience all corners of the world – she enjoys hiking mountains, wildlife photography and getting lost on the hills with her rescue pooch Bobby. She recently climbed Mount Kilimanjaro and whilst doing so, raised money for the charity Bobby was re-homed from.

Janet has worked at Tone Vets since 1998 and qualified as a veterinary healthcare advisor in 2005. Her hobbies include long walks with her Miniature Schnauzers, Millie and Poppy, spending quality time with her family, card making and reading.

Julie has worked at the practice since October 2011. Julie is a local girl who has previously worked at the County Hotel as a receptionist and Monkton Elm Garden Centre where she opened and managed the coffee shop. In her spare time she enjoys long walks with her dog Oscar and spending quality time with her family.

Liz joined us in October 2017 after working as a retail manager at Monkton Elm Garden Centre, where she ran the Pet and Aquatic Centre for over 20 years. She has owned pets all her life and currently shares her home with four whippets and a Belgian shepherd dog. Liz’s hobbies include art, photography, and dog showing and she is a Kennel Club accredited dog show judge.

Leah joined us after working at Monkton Elm Garden Centre, supervising the pet department. Leah has helped raise money for many animal charities such as Marine Conservation Society, Romanian rescue, Bug-life, The Cinnamon Trust and Secret World. Outside of the practice, a day well spent is with her three rescue dogs - Luna, Thor & Tala, volunteering for the cinnamon trust, live music events, and doing aerial hoop fitness.

Alex is new to Taunton and joined the Tone Vets team in December 2020. She has worked with animals previously as an animal nursing assistant and spent some time volunteering at London Zoo under the Animal Welfare officer. She has grown up with lots of animals of her own and is looking forward to meeting everyone and their pets! In her spare time she enjoys reading, spending time with her bearded dragon Gary and exploring the local area.

Rosie recently joined the practice in September 2021 after moving to the area from London in 2020. She’s always loved animals and is excited to be part of the team at Tone. Her hobbies include reading, playing board games, pampering her six hens and walking her dog Teddy.
