What pet owners say
Highly recommend West Vet! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Our dog Archie has received exceptional care and treatment here, and we are incredibly grateful to the whole team. All of the vets and nurses are so friendly, compassionate, and genuinely caring towards animals. A very special thank you to Dr. Sara. She is always patient, thorough, and willing to spend time carefully explaining Archie’s condition and treatment options to us. During a recent and very complicated bacterial infection, Dr. Sara truly helped save Archie. She is not only highly professional and knowledgeable, but also an incredibly kind and caring vet. We trust her completely and feel very lucky to have her looking after Archie. Thank you again to everyone at West Vet. We would absolutely recommend this clinic to anyone looking for compassionate and professional veterinary care for their pets.

We have used West Vet for years, Sara and team are so caring and competent you can tell they are genuinely passionate about animals. Sadly today my girl had to be put to sleep. Sara made what I was expecting to be very traumatic a calm and peaceful event for Luna. Sara came to our house and gave her the sedative whilst she was lying next to our other dog chewing her bone and being told what a great doggie she is by us. She fell asleep whilst living her best life- I couldn’t have hoped for more for her. Thank you for the kindness you showed all of us Sara humans and doggies

I have had the joy and pleasure of working with particularly Dr Sara and the lovely ladies at the front desk since I added two pups to our lives. Dolly and Barney looovvvee Dr Sara and there is always laughter and hope and a lot of love from all the staff. We are seeing them on Monday for the first time in a little while and I am not sure what they will think when they see the latest photos.

Sara, Joyce and the team treat our dogs like their own as they provide the best care possible. We travel across Christchurch purely for them

We have had the pleasure of meeting three of the lovely vets here and they have all been amazing to all of our animals. They are upfront with costs so nothing is ever a surprise. We needed a last minute appointment on Saturday and they somehow managed to fit us in. Also the receptionists are absolutely lovely as well. Highly recommend and thank you west vets.
