Here’s five great reasons for you and your pet to use Vetkind
Our Services
Vetkind offers everything you would expect from a vet and more.
Here's just some of the services we offer.
Vaccinations & health checks
Whether you are getting a new puppy or kitten, or need an annual booster, we can advise on which vaccination protocol is appropriate for your pet.
Pet Microchips
Microchips are essential for reuniting lost pets with their owners . They are a legal requirement for dogs and are advisable for all cats.
Flea and worm prevention
We can advise on and prescribe the most appropriate parasite prevention products for your pet to keep creepy crawlies at bay.
Acute medical conditions
We can examine your pet if they are under the weather to advise on and carry out any treatment or investigations that may be necessary.
Management of chronic & geriatric conditions
As our pets age, we sometimes put medial conditions down to ‘old age’. We can help you recognise the signs of common geriatric diseases and manage these diseases in the comfort of your own home.
Blood pressure check
High blood pressure is a threat in older cats that can easily go unchecked until it causes serious problems such as strokes and blindness.
Pet travel
We have a team of four approved Official Veterinarians. We can assist you with pet holidays and exports.
Home Euthanasia
We understand making the decision to say goodbye to your companion is an extremely stressful and emotional time. At Vetkind, Martha and Mhairi, & the team will be with you every step of the way.
Home-visit nurse
A visit from our nurse can be just the thing for you and your pet. Just like our vet visits, we offer long appointments of 30-40 minutes that allow us to get to know you and your pet and address any concerns or questions you might have.
Surgery
Whilst we love to come and see your pets in their homes, some things need a little more of a specialist environment and equipment.
What do our customers say?
"Martha provided an excellent kind, caring and compassionate service to us in our time of need when she helped my Issy pass away, would highly recommend Vetkind."
– Kelly"Excellent service. Highly recommend. They love your animals. I wouldn’t take my cat to any vet other than Vetkind. They come to my home and attend to my cat. Totally stress free for us both. Wonderful."
– Marilyn"Thank you Mhairi! Excellent treatment and peace of mind. It's great to not have to bundle the cat into a carrier, will definitely use again!"
– Hugh"Absolutely lovely vet. Came on time, was very kind and bribed the cat with treats. No rush at all, sat and had a nice chat to address all of my concerns. Worth every penny and what a relief for my cat, who didn't need to got to a clinic. Thank you!"
– YuliyaMeet some of our happy pets
Red, Colinton
Red always used to get anxious going to the vets. Now, Mhairi visits Red in his home for his annual boosters, and occasionally when he hurts his shoulder, an old injury that sometimes flares up when he runs round too quickly!
Yasmin, Morningside
Yasmin is terrified of travelling in the car to the clinic. She has high blood pressure and has it checked in the comfort of her own home every few months by Mhairi. A big paws up for not having to go in the cat carrier from Yasmin!
Leila, Musselburgh
Leila loves when Martha comes to visit. Leila suffers from car sickness and gets herself into quite a state when she has to travel which is stressful for her and her owner. They have Martha over for Leila's annual booster and to apply flea and worm treatments as Leila is a bit of a hunter! She absolutely loves Martha's calming spray and the cat treats she carries in her bag.
Angus, Leith
Angus the cheeky ferret developed a problem with his adrenal glands, causing discomfort and hair loss. Martha visited him at home and fitted an implant to reduce his hormone levels. Although there isn't a cure for his condition, he has more energy and his hair is growing back. And as a bonus, no car journey to the vets!
