Featured Clinic Overview

Updated January 2026
Independent Clinic

Shetland Vets is a veterinary clinic founded in 1985, offering routine pet care alongside equine and farm-animal work, with a stated 24-hour service. Reviews most often describe clear, step-by-step explanations during appointments, overnight inpatient care for a cat, and a notably dog-friendly approach for nervous or rescue pets (including letting a puppy explore staff-only areas and inviting “hello visits” to keep vet trips positive). One reviewer also notes that veterinary care “is not cheap,” without giving prices.

Shetland Vets is an independent veterinary clinic founded in 1985, with three surgeries and a “24 hour service” stated on its website. It appears set up as a mixed practice: the website lists care for pets, equine, and farm animals, alongside “Isles visits.” In the latest reviews available to us, owners most often describe being seen quickly for urgent problems and being talked through aftercare—one detailed account mentions an emergency appointment for a dog with a large bite wound, with staff handling a frightened dog gently and keeping owners at ease with the advice given. Clean kennels and a rest area are also specifically mentioned in that review.
