She co-starred as Grace Sherman in Cedar Cove, and has had major roles as Muriel in Virgin River, Jean Loring in Arrow and Celia Hudson in Nancy Drew. She has been involved in a number of television movies. Rothery began dance lessons at age nine, and in 1995 looked upon that as the beginning of her career in entertainment. Her first professional outings as a performer were in the musical Bye Bye Birdie at age 13 and in the Marpole Community Theatre's production of The Sound of Music at age 14. As a youth, she danced on The Irish Rovers variety television series, and at age 18, she first appeared on television with a Canadian Broadcasting Corporation television special for Halloween. From ages 19–27, Rothery switched to radio, variously working and performing for CJAZ-FM, KISS-FM, and CKWX. For her performance in A Delicate Balance, Rothery was nominated for a Jessie Richardson Theatre Award (2006–2007) in the category of "Outstanding Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role, Small Theatre". In 2008, she was nominated for a Leo Award (in the category of "Best Performance by a Female in a Short Drama") for performing in Coffee Diva; she was nominated again in 2009 ("Best Supporting Performance by a Female in a Dramatic Series") for her work on The Guard. Two more Leo nominations were for acting in The Collector, and portraying Janet Fraiser in Stargate SG-1.
