Compassionate Veterinary Behaviour support for dogs, cats, and the people who love and care for them.
In-person consultations across Wiltshire, South Gloucestershire, North Hampshire, and West Berkshire, and remotely across the UK.
Welcome to Alongside Animals
I’m Hannah, an experienced vet with a passion for and specialist qualifications in cat and dog behaviour.
I’m an RCVS‑regulated veterinary surgeon specialising in clinical animal behaviour and working as a veterinary behaviourist. My qualifications include an MSc in Clinical Animal Behaviour; membership of CCAB, APBC and FABC; ABTC‑ATI; KPA‑CTP; and Fear Free Certified Professional status. I provide compassionate, evidence‑based behaviour support for dogs, cats and their people across Wiltshire and nearby counties, with remote consultations available UK‑wide via veterinary referral.
Are you feeling overwhelmed by your pet’s behaviour struggles?
Is your pet’s behaviour causing stress, worry, or disruption at home? I offer personalised, welfare-based guidance to help you understand the situation clearly and take confident, practical steps forward.
This isn’t about quick fixes; it’s about providing support for genuine challenges, using science-led compassionate techniques to help you, your family and your pet.
For more information, see my Pet Owner’s page.
Are you a veterinary surgeon looking for help with a behaviour case?
Are your clients struggling with their pet’s behaviour, but you feel you don’t have the time you need to help them?
I offer both history‑based case reviews and full behavioural referrals, working with you to ensure each patient receives the most appropriate support.
If you want to refer a patient, complete the referral here.
If you want to request a case review, contact me here.
Are you a behaviour professional looking for support with a case?
I can provide collaborative, welfare-oriented advice for accredited clinical animal behaviourists (CAB or CCAB) that is both practical and affordable.
I’ll work directly with you to understand the situation, offer clear recommendations, and provide written guidance that you can share with your client and their vet.
A fresh perspective can be a valuable asset, and I’m here to support your professional judgement at every stage.

Hannah has shown great understanding of my Spanish rescue terrier, Eddie, who is much calmer and less fearful now. You can’t underestimate the value of the specialised knowledge of a vet behaviourist for complex issues like aggression or anxiety. We highly recommend Hannah, who will show understanding of whatever pet behaviours you are struggling with.
