Services
- •General veterinary care for pets including cats and dogs, with one reviewer also describing treatment for a tortoise and medication provided during the visit.
- •Home visits, which are a clear focus of the service. Reviewers describe these as especially helpful for nervous pets, hard-to-handle cats, and situations where owners wanted treatment carried out on site.
- •Home euthanasia, including respectful end-of-life care at home and help arranging transfer to a local crematorium.
- •Veterinary certification, as listed on the clinic website.
- •Pet travel paperwork (AHC), also listed on the clinic website.
- •Review examples include a suspected grass seed problem in a dog’s paw being managed conservatively with Epsom salts rather than immediate surgery, and support across different species on the same premises.
Pricing
A very limited amount of published pricing suggests the clinic may sit around average, but this is based on very few comparable services. Reviewers also describe the home-visit fee as minimal, and one compared the clinic favourably on cost against Medivet.
