Lara is a full-time university student doing a Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Sydney. Originally from a farm in north-west NSW, she has grown up surrounded by animals her whole life and has cared for cats, dogs, horses, cows and many other small animals! Once she has completed her degree, she would love to move back out to the country and work as a vet in a mixed practice. In between studying, working, pet sitting and dog walking, Lara is a passionate athlete and runs for the Sydney University team, as well as participating in many other teams sports with uni. While she doesn’t have a pet living with her at the moment, she’s currently saving up to bring a new doggy member into the family to join her in her active life!
