Park Pets Veterinary Clinic describes itself as an independent, family-run, single-site clinic with no links to corporate chains. It’s set up for more involved medical and surgical work as well as routine care, with in-house diagnostics and a stated capability for complex soft-tissue and orthopaedic procedures (including laparoscopy and arthroscopy). The website also states access to a 24-hour emergency service. In the latest reviews available to us, owners repeatedly describe pets staying in the clinic for procedures/surgeries and receiving frequent updates (phone calls and texts) during admission, plus follow-up calls after procedures to check recovery. Several reviews mention surgery for serious issues (including removal of a cancerous tumour) and detailed explanations and planning around treatment.

Barrowside Veterinary Hospital is a Veterinary Council of Ireland–accredited hospital (per its website) that treats companion animals as well as farm animals and equine. It’s set up for both routine care and urgent problems, with 24/7 emergency care stated on the website. Across reviews, owners repeatedly mention fast access (including same‑day appointments) and practical, hands-on care such as house calls, rapid blood-work turnaround (reported as “all back in an hour”), and treatment for serious emergencies (one owner says their puppy was saved after an intestinal blockage). Reviews also show mixed experiences over time: one owner reports two earlier “bad” situations, but later describes excellent help from a newer vet who responded even after the clinic had closed.

Farney Veterinary Services is a small-animal veterinary practice (no corporate/vet-group ownership is stated in the information provided). Reviews repeatedly point to a hands-on, personal style of care, with particular detail around support for older pets and end-of-life decisions: one owner describes being given “space and time” when saying goodbye to a 15-year-old dog and feeling the team “didn’t just give up on him” beforehand. Several owners also mention the practice looking after multiple dogs and helping with stray cats, and one notes the clinic has been “recently…revamped.” Reception is frequently mentioned as welcoming and helpful, including a “resident cat” that greets visitors.

Monaleen Vets appears to be part of the Rockhall Veterinary group (the clinic website sits under Rockhall Veterinary, and reviewers reference “Rockhall branches”). Based on the information available, it’s set up for routine consultations and ongoing care, with a stated 24‑hour emergency arrangement through a partner night-vet service. Clinic-specific details owners mention include: - Cross-clinic coordination to secure an appointment when another branch had no slots (a next-day booking was arranged at Monaleen). - Gentle handling during a cat consultation, with practical advice given. - Time taken to talk owners through difficult decisions and explain options clearly (including staying late “off the clock,” per one review). - A recommended cat collar sold at the clinic that an owner says didn’t irritate their cat and stayed on when others hadn’t.

Jerry McCarthy Veterinary Clinic lists a broad set of general veterinary services—ranging from routine prevention (vaccinations, worming, microchipping) to in-clinic diagnostics (digital radiographs and ultrasound) and procedures such as neutering and dental care. The website also states the clinic is available 24 hours for emergencies. From the latest reviews available to us, owners most often point to practical, decision-relevant experiences: dogs (including very large dogs) being handled in a way that keeps them calm, appointments/bookings described as responsive, and advice described as straightforward—one reviewer specifically notes they weren’t pushed to buy food or products. One detailed review describes a puppy being diagnosed with ear mites and treated, with guidance given on ear cleaning and grooming at home.

The Donkey Sanctuary is a donkey-and-mule welfare organisation (not a general small-animal veterinary clinic) focused on sanctuary care, rehoming, and practical support for owners. The website positions it as a specialist authority on donkey welfare and knowledge-sharing. Recent reviews focus more on the visitor experience than clinical care, with repeated mentions of clearly marked walking routes/trails, staff who explain what they’re doing, and a dog-friendly policy during visits. Practical specifics mentioned include free entry and an “adopt a donkey” option (€25 for one year).

Palmerstown Veterinary Hospital describes itself as a private practice and, based on both its website and recent reviews, it appears set up for routine care plus a strong focus on exotic pets (small mammals, reptiles, birds, and other non-traditional species). Owners repeatedly mention being able to get help for species that many general clinics don’t routinely see (for example guinea pigs, rabbits, ferrets, a royal python, and even a betta fish). Communication and transparency come up in case-handling too—one cat owner reports being updated before/during/after a procedure and contacted the next day, and another review notes repeat prescriptions and quick questions handled via a pet app.

Cavan Vet Group Pet Clinic is part of Cavan Vet Group (a small-animal and farm-animal practice, per its website). Based on the services described, it’s set up for routine preventative care (boosters, vaccinations, parasite treatments), diagnostics (including dental X‑ray), and surgery, alongside health plans. From the latest reviews available to us, experiences are mixed: several owners describe thorough routine appointments (e.g., a dog receiving an annual booster with an exam and bloods taken), while a small number describe serious concerns, including alleged missed/delayed diagnosis and feeling their pet should have received urgent surgery sooner. Concrete specifics mentioned: - Health plan (“Pet Plan”) described by an owner as a monthly payment that covers routine items like vaccinations and worming tablets (with extra charges still possible for tests like bloodwork). - Vaccination/booster visits and blood testing explicitly described in reviews. - Two separate 1‑star reviews allege failure to diagnose and/or delayed surgical treatment for serious conditions (including one case involving anaesthesia for investigation and another involving a bleeding issue where surgery was reportedly needed).
