The practice offers a comprehensive range of services for pets, horses (equine services), and farm animals, catering to the diverse animal health needs of the community. They ensure expert care across all species, from routine check-ups to more specialised treatments. Shetland Vets is characterised by its dedicated team and a commitment to serving its widespread island community. They offer 24-hour service to ensure continuous care and regularly conduct island visits, including weekly trips to Yell and monthly visits to Whalsay, a service they have maintained since 1986. The practice also demonstrates an environmental commitment, striving to reduce its ecological impact and stocking sustainable pet products. For pet owners, the practice offers a Pet Health Plan to help spread the cost of essential treatments, including vaccinations and flea/worm control, with discounts on long-term medications and dental procedures. Clients can order repeat prescriptions online for collection at one of their three surgeries, requiring 24-48 hours' notice. For the outer islands, specific arrangements are in place for vet consultations and home visits.

  Excellent care and compassion. Our dog had a large bite in his tummy and we were seen as an emergency. Throughout the consultation and the after care discussion we were at ease with the advice given. Fantastic way they treated our dog who was extremely frightened and upset by being attacked. Superb staff and extremely clean kennels and rest area. Can't recommend highly enough. Thank you.
