Find Trusted Vets in Wales

Last Wishes Mobile Vet provides at-home pet euthanasia, with the vet described on the website as RCVS-registered and practising since 2014. Recent reviews repeatedly describe a home visit being arranged (sometimes for the following day) and the vet (Carlos) explaining the procedure step-by-step without rushing families. Several owners also describe aftercare being handled, including cremation and the return of ashes (one review says within a week), with keepsakes such as paw prints mentioned.

Rhyd Broughton Veterinary Group is a multi-species practice (cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets and hamsters) offering routine care plus a boarding cattery, with Cat Friendly Clinic Silver status. Reviews repeatedly mention easy access to appointments when pets are unwell (including one case where reception booked two alternatives) and clear explanations of “what is happening and the options available,” including in emergencies. Out-of-hours visits are specifically referenced, including end-of-life care where owners felt euthanasia was “absolutely the right decision” and described staff support as exemplary. Owners also mention a paid “pets health club” membership that includes consultations.

Four Crosses Veterinary Centre describes itself as an independent mixed animal practice that has been caring for animals for over 50 years. The website states it runs its own out-of-hours service from the Four Crosses branch, with two vets on call for emergencies—something multiple reviewers say they specifically wanted (and one review describes receiving helpful phone advice late at night for a suspected caterpillar-related irritation). Reviews also point to quick appointment availability and generally positive experiences, but there are also accounts of poor front-desk interactions out of hours and a problem during a nail clip that left a dog with a bleeding paw, plus a complaint about missing transferred history notes.

Cater Veterinary Practice treats “family pets” and is set up for routine consults as well as more sensitive appointments (including end-of-life care), with out-of-hours care mentioned on the practice website. The site also references a Pet Health Club® Plus plan that includes consultations. It’s also listed as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility.

Caerwys Veterinary Surgery’s ownership/group isn’t stated in the available information. Based on the evidence provided, the practice is set up for everyday small-animal care with an emphasis on fast access for urgent problems and supportive end‑of‑life care. Specific examples mentioned include being seen quickly after a Sunday morning call, a home visit for euthanasia to avoid stressing an elderly cat, and follow-up gestures after a loss (a condolence card, plus keepsakes like paw/footprints and a child’s bereavement book). The clinic is also listed as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility.
