Marine Potin

Posted on April 6, 2026 by Sam -

Originally from Brittany, France (the crêpe capital!), Marine is one of our dedicated and enthusiastic veterinary nurses, bringing a fresh perspective and a genuine love for animals to the clinic each day. She began her journey in the veterinary industry in September 2024 as a kennel hand and receptionist, quickly working her way into veterinary nursing through her passion and eagerness to learn. After gaining experience at another clinic in Cairns, she joined the Southside Vets team just before Christmas 2025. She is currently studying with ACVN as she continues to grow her knowledge and skills in the field.

Marine loves the diversity that comes with veterinary nursing – no two days are ever the same, and there’s always something new to learn. While she is still discovering her special interests, Marine is excited to continue developing her skills and finding her niche within the profession.

At home, Marine’s world revolves around her partner Caleb and their two adorable dogs, Sammie and Izzy. Sammie is an almost nine-year-old Mini Foxy x Chihuahua (who technically belongs to Caleb, but Marine swears loves her the most), and Izzy is their cheeky one-year-old Jack Russell Terrier x Chihuahua who was recently adopted an joined the family.

Outside of the clinic, Marine enjoys staying active and outdoors, whether that’s horse riding, scuba diving, or recently perfecting her swing on the golf course. After a busy day, you’ll often find her unwinding with a walk or playtime with the dogs, or relaxing with a well-earned glass of wine.

With her warm nature, growing skillset, and passion for animal care, she is a valued member of the team and someone your pets will feel comfortable with from the moment they meet her.
