Emergency veterinary services in Cardiff

“Always a calm and caring environment. Jess is extremely efficient and knowledgeable. She takes time to explain treatment options and costs involved clearly. Although busy the whole team takes time to ensure both pet and owner looked after with dignity and respect.”

“I brought my dog to Vets4Pets Newport Road after a rough experience at another vet in Cardiff. There are a few things I appreciate about this hospital: - The vets are skilled with good bedside manner, and I was impressed that they offer sonography, radiology, and orthopaedics. They also take the time to talk through your pets care with you and make sure that you understand everything. - They offer emergency services. Although my dog's case was pushed back a day, they helped another pup with an urgent surgery. I am from the States, and these cases nearly always get bumped to emergency clinics and speciality hospitals. - They respect my knowledge as a licensed vet nurse in the States. Other vets dismissed any concerns or knowledge I had of vet med. I've been in the field for 16 years, and I am a skilled nurse, so I appreciate that being recognized. - Their prices are reasonable. - Most of the staff handled it well when I was upset when my old dog's case was deferred to the following week (there may be some lingering irritation with me from some staff, but that is okay). The only issue I had was with an estimate being a little off, but that happens in vet med. They were able to fix some things to honor the price they quoted me.”

“We cant thank the team at Valley Vets enough for taking care of our boy and us, at a really difficult time. The team were so caring and compassionate, they treated our dog as their own. Forever grateful for how they acted in his last moments.”

“I have been with Richard and Vale Vets for the last 10 years and I have had nothing but a great service throughout those years. More recently this past December my dog Lexi who is now 13 years old went in for a general check of health, but Richard discovered a mass growing in her stomach. It was not looking good for Lexi as she was an older dog. We didn't know how she was going to react to surgery, we didn't know whether or not she would survive the anesthetic and we did know how much of the mass had integrated into the rest of her body. We made the decision to go ahead with the surgery to give Lexi the best chance of surviving. Richard and his team went above and beyond to care for Lexi and I could never have asked for a greater group of people to care for her. Somehow Richard managed to remove a two kilogram mass from Lexi, Lexi only being 18 kilogram to start with. The surgery was successful and Lexi had come out of the anesthetic. We went in to the surgery to meet with Richard and to see Lexi for the first time, we were given all of the options where it was a 50/50 chance whether or not Lexi would survive the night and we made the decision that we would care for her at home regardless of the outcome, which we had the full support of Richard and his team and again I echo that they were amazing and went above and beyond their job and they there responsibilities. Richard didn't have to do this but he kept in touch with me. He was about to go on holiday with his family, but he kept in touch with me all the way through the night to make sure that Lexi was still going strong. Lexi made it through the night. Lexi was back at the surgery the next day to have a check up, watching her walk back into the building was one of the proudest things I've seen that old dog do. She was greeted with affection from everybody and by this time everybody had heard the story of Lexi and everyone was truly amazed that she had pulled through what was a horrific surgery. We are now three months on and Lexi is doing better than ever. She is running around with our kids, still thinking she is still a puppy. Lexi would not be here if it wasn't for Richard and the team at Barry Vale Vets. We could never thank you all enough.”

“This is the best cattery I've come across, and I'm typing this a little reluctantly because if everyone finds out they may not have space for our cats when we need it. The premises are secure and clean, and the staff know all the cats very well, and deal with them all as individuals.”

“Couldn't speak more highly of this Dr Doolittle branch. Have been taking my Dachshund to them for coming up to two years and each visit is excellent. Fenella the Vet and Lucy support staff are just so kind and are happy to explain anything to you! A***”

“Really friendly staff. Dogs didn't even realise they were in a vets! Excellent care for both pets and humans.”

“Just fantastic. Our dog injured a paw and was really suffering. A phone call secured an appointment (as and/or when) We took him to the practice and he was seen and treated within 20 minutes. Every member of staff were sympathetic and really helpful. Brilliant.”

“This practice is wonderful. Every member of staff has been kind, friendly and efficient. Yesterday, my daughter and I took her very ill chameleon there and we spoke in depth to Sophie and after her examination of Audrey my daughter decided that euthanasia was best for her chameleon. We waited in a private room and said goodbye to her. Adina, veterinary practitioner, was brilliant, so empathetic and sensitive, arranging Audrey so prettily at the end. We highly recommend this practice without reservation.”

“Staff very friendly & always have time for you while attending the practice. Reception & consulting rooms extremely clean & tidy along with the weighing area. We have attended this practice for many years & have always been happy with the treatment all our dogs have received from Sara & other attending Vets.”

“This was a visit for a "free" vet check for any lumps . We had only short wait to be seen, waiting room was air conditioned and had drinking water available for our pets. Vet was informative and took time to explain options to us which was much appreciated. Gave costs for any future treatment which was very welcome. Transparency and clarity, Thank you!”

“I've put my cat in my parents' home for now. This vet has helped me and my cat a lot in the past year. My cat was spayed and neutered here.Astor has been very healthy and has only contracted conjunctivitis once and had a very small patch of shedding on his legs. The vet and other staff at this shop have been very friendly and patient, responding to emails promptly and providing me with all the paperwork I need. The vet is always busy. I always wanted the best for Astor. And I feel necessary to give them a favourable review.”

“I love taking my dog here, The staff are friendly, caring towards the animals, They take the time to talk/advise you in person or over the phone. It never feels like your on a time scale here, Highly recommended.”

“I have been using the kennels for many years We like to travel and I feel so happy to know that my precious pooch is being cared for with exceptional attention He’s an old dog now at 13 but full of energy and is always excited and happy to go there In my opinion it’s a great place to send the special pets in our lives You can enjoy your holiday safe in the knowledge that they are being cared for to the highest standards”

“Lovely welcome by the vet, great explanation about the care of my cat and next steps needed to protect her. Looking forward to our next visit x”

“I have only just started using this vets .I took my rabbits in for check ups and a neutor. My poor cat then got unwell and valley vets was my choice of vets after seeing how kind and gentle gordan was with my rabbits .unfortunately diagnosis wasn't good and the rest of my beloved Jessie care was handled with Laura. Last night we gave our Jess her last kiss goodnight .laura and her staff were amazing and compassionate to not just the cat but to us her owners.i would 100% recommend these vets ! .”

“We received excellent service from fabulous staff after an emergency with our Labrador on Christmas morning! We had an appointment within an hour of contact and when we arrived were seen straight away! Our dog is nervous attending the vet but after successful treatment and the care of the staff he was absolutely fine!! A huge thank you to the staff at Vets Now!!!”

“Everyone at this surgery was so calm, understanding and made our dog (and us) feel really at ease. The vet spent time to answer all of our questions and gave us great advice. The receptionists were really helpful too! Thank you! :)”

“I visited Fairwater practice this morning concerned about my 12 year old dogs teeth and whether or not he would need a scale and Polish under general anesthetic. The vet explained that at 12 years old my dog doesn't need any procedures that aren't necessary.Once he checked my dogs teeth and gums he said the best thing to do would be to carry on brushing daily as we are doing at the moment , they weren't that bad , I appreciated his honesty as it saved my dog and us a lot of stress and money .”
