We are proud to care for the animals of Orkney, in sickness and in health.

With our accumulated local knowledge we understand Orkney life, and we do what we can to make life as easy as possible for our community, with examples of this in action every day.

At the heart of everything we do at Northvet is the concept of family. Our team has formed a close bond over many years of shared experiences and we hope our clients feel included in that warmth too.

We have a fantastic range of skills in our team and invest in our equipment and facilities to be able to offer a wide range of services from our three branches in Kirkwall, Harray and Stromness.

We have been fortunate to grow a talented team locally as well as welcoming new members from further afield, giving us a skilled group with a range of expertise and further qualifications, meaning we can offer services such as orthopaedic surgery.
