We have found Slaney Vets to be incredible. Both for long term care of our older dog and for acute care for our other dog. Also for our hens and cats. We used to have to drive to bray for poultry care. However Slaney do a great job for them too. The communication from the team is fantastic, we always know we can trust the teams words of advice and that our animals best interests are at the heart and centre of this practice. Michelle and Katie have worked miracles time and time again with Ispin and Paidi. No stone left unturned. The receptionists and other vets around too have always been so welcoming and caring. We've had big and small animals for years and years so have experience with quite the list of vets over the years across Kildare and Wicklow. Slaney Vets have come out on top and I'm so happy with every aspect of the care they provide. Thank you so much for keeping our animals safe and sound.

I’ve been a client of Slaney Veterinary Centre for many years, and I honestly can’t recommend them highly enough. The level of kindness, compassion, and personal care they show is truly exceptional. They currently take care of my two dogs and and six cats and multiple other pets over the years, including all the strays that have crossed my door, with the utmost professionalism and genuine concern for their well-being. Every member of staff—from the reception team to the vets and nurses—makes you feel valued and supported, there is always a smile waiting. It’s not just a vet practice, it’s a place where animals (and their humans) are treated and supported. I always feel confident that my pets are in the best hands here. Thank you all so much for everything you do!

I can’t say enough good things about Slaney Vet Care! They took such great care of my cat, Popcorn. From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive. The vet took the time to explain everything and made sure Popcorn felt comfortable during her check-up. I really appreciated the personalized care they provided. Popcorn is doing great now, and I couldn’t be happier with the service we received. Highly recommend! Thanks so much Michelle and the team
