The nurses are so kind, and our anxious rescue dog now walks in wagging. I wouldn’t take him anywhere else now.

We tried a few clinics after moving to Burleigh, and this one stands out. Unhurried, kind and great value. Our dog agrees!

From puppy shots to her first dental, they’ve looked after our cavoodle beautifully, and we trust them completely.

FAQ

Everything your pet needs, in one local clinic

How often should my pet see a vet?

We recommend a health check at least once a year. Puppies, kittens and senior pets usually need to see us more often.

Can you see a sick pet on the same day?

Yes, we keep same-day appointments for sick or injured pets. After hours, we’ll refer you to a nearby 24-hour emergency hospital.

What does a grooming visit include?

A hydrobath and blow-dry, brush-out, clip or trim, nail clipping and ear cleaning, plus a quick health check while we’re at it.

Can I book my pet’s visit online?

Yes, you can book online at any time through our website, or call the clinic on (07) 7010 3961 during opening hours.

Which vaccinations does my pet need?

It depends on age and lifestyle, but most dogs need C3 or C5 and cats F3 vaccines. We’ll set up a schedule that suits your pet.

How can I tell if my pet needs a dental?

Bad breath, red gums, tartar on the teeth or trouble eating are common signs. A quick check with one of our vets will tell you more.
