Mariska

Hi everybody!

My name is Mariska and in June 2016 I graduated as a veterinarian nurse at Groenhorst College, which is now called Aeres MBO Barneveld.

After years of working in the hospitality industry, I finally dared to take the step to still do the thing where my passion lies, which is being a vet nurse. During my education, I had the opportunity to do many fun internships at, among other places, the Kerkewijk veterinary clinic in Veenendaal. During those internships, I soon realised that this was what I really wanted to do. What I like about the profession is that together as a team, you do everything to make sure both owner and animal go home happy.

I currently live in Amsterdam with my boyfriend and two cats Rhonin and Kyno.
I have always been a tremendous animal lover. For instance, I rode horses from childhood and could always be found at the riding school. My father breeds zebra finches. As a result, I always took all injured birds home to nurse them. But my heart secretly lies most with cats! That is why I can be found at the Sarphatipark Cat Clinic.

Hope to see you soon!
