About me

Hi, I'm Dr. Agata Rybicka

Dr. Agata Rybicka · Founder of SenCareVet
Caring for a pet is never just about medicine. It is about the bond, the memories, and the love we share throughout their lives and beyond.

I'm a veterinarian with a PhD in Veterinary Oncology, and I have spent most of my career in animal health research and industry. While I no longer practice in a clinic, I remain passionate about helping pets and the people who care for them.

Over the past 15 years I have designed and led veterinary clinical trials across Europe - in oncology, immunology and neurology - headed R&D teams developing new products for pets, supervised PhD and Master's students, and published peer-reviewed research on canine cancer. Today I direct an animal-health research portfolio spanning multiple species. SenCareVet is where that science meets what I care about most: the everyday wellbeing of pets and their people.

I'm also a pet owner myself. My adopted cat, Toulouse, reminds me every day how much joy, comfort and companionship animals bring to our lives.

Like many pet owners, I have experienced the loss of a beloved animal, and I understand how difficult it can be to navigate illness, uncertainty, difficult decisions and grief. Sometimes what we need most is simply someone who will listen without judgment - and understand.

Through SenCareVet, my goal is to help you feel informed, supported and less alone - whether you're caring for a senior pet, facing a serious diagnosis, or coping with the loss of a cherished companion.
