Vetcare Carlow

Vetcare Carlow is part of the Vet Care group (described on its website as four Vet Care practices) and offers consultations as part of a Pet Health Club® Plus plan. Reviews repeatedly describe the team taking on urgent problems that other clinics turned away, including an “emergency matter” for an injured dog where owners say it was “no hassle” to be seen. Owners also mention dental care (with pets coming home “in great form” with “lovely clean teeth”) and practical handling for difficult appointments—such as vaccinating a reactive dog outside to keep them more comfortable. One review also notes the clinic is spacious and “well-supplied with pet products.”
