Our team of passionate pet and farm veterinarians are based across New Zealand's South Island with 24 clinics serving Canterbury, MacKenzie, Otago, Nelson/Tasman and Marlborough.

OUR SERVICES

Vetlife offers complete, optimum care for pets and for farm/production animals.

We understand the emotional connection pet owners have with their animals, and we provide warm, personalised care within our clinics to ensure your companions receive the care they deserve. Vetlife also offers a number of catteries in convenient locations.  If you have a farm or a lifestyle block, Vetlife has dedicated team members who can come out to your property and treat your stock on-site. We can establish a plan to maximise our time on-farm, thus ensuring we create a solution tailored to your operation to keep your animals at peak production.

OUR CLINICS

With clinics in Canterbury, MacKenzie, Otago, Nelson/Tasman and Marlborough, we can help you in your community.

Being locally owned and operated, Vetlife has extensive knowledge of the Otago, Canterbury, MacKenzie and Marlborough regions.  Vetlife is well established with four decades of operation under its belt, and we have working owners. As we are run by vets, we have a thorough understanding of local animal needs, issues and deficiencies, and our focus is on the long-term health and well-being of animals within your community. We are your animal health partners and we will deliver the best outcome for your animals, whether that be by routine treatments, emergency surgery, retail needs within a clinic or expert advice on increasing production on-farm.

“Really good service especially as it was after hours. The vet was really good with the dog and couldn't have been more helpful. ”
