Dublin Bay Vets: Reviews

Fantastic experience: We wish everyone could find a vet as wonderful as the team at Dublin bay vets. Caoimhe and the team saved our cat's life while we were on holiday abroad. They took the time to explain the surgery and what they are going to do over the phone and then sent us regular messages and photos the following days to show us that he was resting well. They took care of him as if he were their own cat, and the whole team was extremely attentive. To Caoimhe and to the team, there are no words strong enough to describe how grateful we are for what you did for Tsele and for us. Thank you for everything.

Fantastic experience: Wanted to say Thank you to Dave and the Team. They were so helpful when we visited the then for a Pet Passport for Barni. We went out of these way to accommodate us when we had to change our appointment and got our passport through right away. Barni is a nervous cat and they made her visit as stress free as possible. I wanted to let you know Barni did very well on the ferry and is now setting into her new home.

Fantastic experience: Huge shout out to Colm. The empathy and compassion he showed us while we had to say goodbye to our Charlie was comforting. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: We had an experience 18 months ago with a dog we had rehomed from a friend. She became suddenly quite ill after we'd had her a short while. We took her to Dublin Bay vets and Dave was absolutely fantastic with her care and tests to find out what was wrong. We made a decision after consulting with her previous owner that she return to them, Dave and the team looked after her, made contact with our friends vet practice and made the transition to their care seamless. She is now well and happy and living back with her previous family. We then adopted a little rescue dog in December last year, Holly. She's has had quite a few issues and the care and attention, which included phone calls to check on her after visits and procedures, has been excellent. Dave, Sinead, the nurses, reception staff etc. are all so helpful the clinic is pleasant and always spotless. Very happy with the practice and very grateful for their care of Holly and help in the last year. Hopefully we will see less visits this year

Negative experience: would give 0 stars if possible. I chose Dublin Bay Vets because of their good reviews, thinking I had found the best professionals. It was the biggest mistake of my life. My brachycephalic dog had severe pulmonary edema. They made me spend over €3,000 on tests, then recommended palate reduction surgery. I trusted them and went ahead. After surgery they only gave corticosteroids, never tried to drain the fluid from her lungs, and claimed she had “chronic bronchitis”. She couldn’t swallow the antibiotics – they simply said it was fine to skip them and never offered injections or nebulisation. For weeks she couldn’t eat or drink properly and was choking constantly. I carried her to the clinic 3+ times a week in the middle of summer (no car), begging them to listen. I told them something was seriously wrong – she was in extreme distress. Their answer every time: “She seems okay” and “I’m so sorry to hear that”. Six days post-surgery the vet saw us quickly, said she was fine, I could give normal food and refused a bronchodilator. If I had followed that advice she would have died that day. 20 days after surgery they finally gave me a feeding tutorial. I had already been doing it correctly thanks to AI guidance. I got a second opinion from my family vet 14,000 km away. He immediately saw the massive edema on the X-ray (something Dublin Bay “never noticed”). He prescribed diuretics and proper treatment. When I begged Dublin Bay Vets for the same medication, the vet literally said there was no reason for it. I found Cherrywood Vets (non-Irish vet). They saw the same problem and started the correct treatment immediately. My dog finally improved; her lungs cleared 50 % in days. Later we moved to Village Vets where they added inhaled corticosteroid, exactly what EVERY other vet had recommended from the start and what Dublin Bay refused. After months of suffering and over €9,000 wasted, the lung damage was irreversible. I buried my girl two days ago. It was too late to save her. Dublin Bay Vets will probably reply with some polite technical excuse to fool the next client. Don’t fall for their friendly act, they are trained to extract money with a smile while keeping your pet sick and selling expensive food that makes things worse. They seem competent only at trimming nails and emptying wallets. Stay far away. Go to Village Vets instead. Trusting Dublin Bay Vets with my dog’s life is the worst thing I’ve ever done.

Sarah Crean Posted on Google 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: I would like to thank Dublin Bay Vets , for the great service we have received for My dog Ernie and his cousin Bella . I know the staff truly cares about my dog, they treat us with the upmost dignity and respect and I trust them with my dog’s care. I highly recommend this team of experts for all of your pet’s needs from immunizations to serious health issues. Thank you

Majki Gyongyi Posted on Google 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been bringing my cat to Dublin Bay vets for the past 3 years since we rescued him. They were always very friendly and professional, but truth to be told we didn’t need anything out of the ordinary for the first two years. In the past year Goose (the cat:)) has had some issues. We’ve been to a few different clinics and hospital for out of hours appointments and was told to bring him back to his regular vet. That’s when we met Dave. Hands down he’s the best vet I’ve ever met. Great attention to detail, always remembers to follow up on things, looked into things I mentioned in passing and got back to me about what he found even though I wasn’t expecting him to do so. Before I met him I was thinking about bringing Goose to a cat specialist clinic (just to make sure he gets the best care possible), but now I would not bring him to anyone else. He gets the best care possible!

Simon dk Posted on Google 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: Always so lovely, kind and very understanding of our dog not being happy about being there and the scared in the closed rooms. Freyja says thanks for the cares ( and scares ).

Frank Posted on Google 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent vets, Heidi got her anal glands removed after 9 years of going once every 3 weeks, I decided to get the operation done. Recommended by my local vet that Dave is the best in tricky surgery's. Recovery was tuff , for all. But now that's it over, I am happy I done it and Heidi is doing great, I even think she is happier now. But every vet and nurse in there is very sound/knowledgeable and thanks to them all. Frank & Heidi

Fantastic experience: I brought our dog Kaala here today, and I can’t recommend this clinic highly enough. Dave, who has been caring for Kaala since 2023, helped us with a minor eye issue and provided detailed guidance on monitor it and what treatment options are available. The follow up email was very clear and professional. Definitely better than most human healthcare! Thank you for treating Kaala with such kindness and care. And thank you as well to the lovely reception team. Highly recommended!

Inna Somers Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely stellar service, amazing, attentive and caring vets, knowledgeable and supportive staff. Always reliable in case of emergency and so helpful in timely updates and follow ups. I'm slightly jealous that my kids can't get treatment there too ( as we have to put up with the horrors of Temple street and our dog gets a royal treatment at the vets). Absolutely best experience with the vet ever, wholeheartedly recommend! Inna

Fantastic experience: We have had lots of visits to Dublin Bay vets with our poppy and these guys are absolutely phenomenal. The staff is amazing and so welcoming and this is such a comfort to us and to poppy. Thank you so much for taking care of her we really appreciate all that ye do !

Martin O'Gorman Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I switched to these guys as I was unhappy with my previous vets. The staff are so friendly and the vets are compassionate and caring and professional. I felt they spent longer with my dog and gave greater consideration and thought than I have seen with other vets. Cannot recommend highly enough!

Nicola Madsen Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: The best vets my family has ever had. Dr Sinead and the team are wonderful. My dog got very sick around this time last year and thanks to Sinead she is back to her happy healthy self after a year of medication. When our previous dog was near the end of his life the team were extremely supportive and caring. We couldn't have asked for better.

Brian M Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Have had many occasions to visit Dublin Bay Vet over the last few years and I can't recommend them highly enough. They provide a friendly & efficient service which is rare these days. Always greeted with a smile by reception staff and same again with vets and nurses alike. My pup loves going in there even after a recent spay. There after care service on Whatsapp is a game changer too.. Highly Recommend.

patricia collins Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Dear Caoimhe, now that things have somewhat settled after our beloved Toby's passing. I just have to write and thank you for making his passing such a comfortable one. The dedication of you and your team, and the kindness shown to Toby and his humans were unequalled. Your professionalism and efficiency was always evident and served as a great boost of confidence to us. We will never forget our little fur baby Toby. With our grateful and very best wishes to you all. Trish and Frank Collins.

Tea Hita Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I recently visited Dublin Bay Vets in Clongriffin with my four cats, and I couldn't be happier with the care they received. The staff was incredibly welcoming, patient, and attentive from the moment we walked in. Each of my cats has different needs and personalities, but the team handled them all with expert care, making each one feel comfortable and safe. The vets were thorough in their examinations and took the time to explain everything to me clearly, which I really appreciated. It’s obvious that they truly care about their patients and are passionate about their work. The clinic itself was clean, well-organized, and had a calming atmosphere, which made the experience less stressful for both me and my cats. If you're looking for a vet that treats your pets like their own, I highly recommend Dublin Bay Vet in Clongriffin. A top-notch service from a dedicated and compassionate team!

Karen Mary Brady Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Vet Sinead Doyle looks after my rabbit Benedict so well. They always fit him in for an appointment if I’m concerned. He’s very anxious and she is great with him and always checks how he is doing. Rabbits are given a separate room so that they’re not scared of dogs and cats in the waiting room. Always a very calm and pleasant experience visiting Dublin Bay.

Kai Hamer Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Colm and the team were incredibly professional and kind. They provided support to me for a pet passport for my travel to the UK. The appointment process was quick and easy. When we arrived, they were friendly and welcoming even when we showed up with all our luggage when arrived directly from the airport. Colm answered all my questions and concerns. I left their office much more relaxed and reassured. I honestly can’t recommend them highly enough. I’d give them 10 stars if I could.

Ever Kelly Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Me, my mom, and our family cat, Willow, were trying to reach the UK and Dublin Bay made the stressful journey smooth and spectacular. We needed a EU pet passport and they worked with us from the moment we made the appointment in the states to even after we received our passport and left the building. It was a quick, painless, and most importantly, a friendly experience. The vet walked us through all the steps he needed to take to write the passport so we understood what he was doing the whole way. We even came straight from Dublin Airport with all of our luggage and they let us keep it in the lobby and watch it for us during the appointment and helped us call a taxi and carry the luggage out to the taxi when it arrived. Since we came from the airport and had been traveling, they even gave us extra litter just to make sure we had plenty for the rest of the journey. The experience was amazing and totally recommend whether you’re in the Dublin area, but especially if you’re visiting because it can be hard to find somewhere to trust when you’re new and/or not from the area. 10/10 Dublin Bay Vets you’re amazing!

James Hodkinson Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Lovely vets. Highly recommended (Just wish it was cheaper but that isn't a Dublin Bay Vet only issue, costs are ridiculous everywhere) Brilliant with both my cat and dog.

Sarah Hoban Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Had been attending here for over 4 years with our special girl Daisy. Daisy had been diagnosed with diabetes and a skin disease prior to attending DBV, and we were at a loss with how to manage it. We loved our girl and would've done anything to keep her healthy and happy. We switched vets because we felt Daisy was not receiving the adequate care she needed in a nearby vets, and we were also in desperate need of good education as owners and guidance to give her the care she required at home. I cannot put into words the incredible care she received from the minute we walked in the door, and the invaluable education and empowerment we were given as owners. Throughout the years Daisy had been diagnosed with multiple different conditions and cancers, multiple times requiring surgery. Each time we were fully informed of the risks going into the surgery, and were updated regularly. If I could give DBV a million stars I would. It's been 5 months since we put our precious girl to sleep and the dignity she was given, alongside the support we were provided before and after has made the most traumatic event bearable. It has given us so much peace. I would like to think most people would want to give their pet the best care available, and I have to say if that's the case then DBV is the vetinary practice for you. The whole team from front of house, to the vets themselves are incredible. I would like to lend my biggest thanks to Donal, who without, I fear we would not have been afforded as much time with our sweet angel. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, we are eternally grateful to you all. The Hoban family.

Tatjana Imhof Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: The team at Dublin bay vets isn’t just incredibly thorough in what they do, but also always put a smile on your face. Our Ella twisted her claw badly this week and had to be seen immediately as she was in pain and bleeding. She was treated very fast after my arrival and I still can’t get over the little art they put on her bandage. Way to make the owner feel at ease!

Simona De Robertis Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Dublin Bay Vets have been looking after Buttons since I adopted him one and a half year ago. Buttons has always received top notch attention from all the team, who have also been excellent to provide reassurance to an anxious cat mum. Two weekends ago, Buttons had a very serious issue which required an emergency visit to DBV. Philip and the team did all their best to stabilise my little fella and facilitated his transfer to the pet hospital, where he spent the weekend. After he was discharged, Buttons was cleared to return into my care. Since then, the DBV team has been in contact daily with me with updates on his test results and always ready to provide answers for all my questions. Buttons is now well and back to his silly self. I cannot thank Philip and the team enough for saving my little boy’s life and for supporting me in this difficult time. If you are looking for a team of dedicated, caring and compassionate professionals to look after your precious furry companions, look no further! Simona and Buttons

Graham O'Rourke Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Last Friday we had to put our beloved Husky Skye to sleep after an amazing 15 years. A huge thank you to DBV, the way everyone treated and looked after Skye in her final few months of poor health was nothing short of amazing. The genuine care and advice we could not of asked for anymore. As hard as Friday was for our family the way staff conducted themselves with the respect and care we were shown really helped us. Donal that carried out the procedure was so gentle and caring. Further more to this the card we received unexpectedly in the post was a moving gesture that we will cherish forever. It is absolutely amazing to have Skye’s prints forever. Service like this needs to be recognised, you made clear that your practice isn’t just a business. You have immensely helped our grieving process ❤️ Thanks so much from the O Rourke family

Cara Doyle Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I could not recommend Dublin Bay Vet enough. I came to them after my doggo had a traumatic incident and a now highly anxious owner. They made me feel so heard and ensured me Louis would be always looked after. Anytime Louis has had to go to DBV including an overnight stint, he is provided with the best care and the need to care and support by all the Vets, Nurses and staff is second to none. They are simple incredible and Im greatful for the support they give me too. They also are so great at communication with you through updates etc which has been really lovely. I always feel Louis gets the best care and I wouldn’t go anywhere else!

Natasha Nolan Posted on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: We sadly had to say goodbye to our 10 year beautiful husky and these amazing humans were wonderful and helpful from start to finish. They provided so much support advice and help. Thank you so much DBV

Anne Patton Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I took my son's dog,Harry here+we saw a vet called Billy.I was " blown away" by the unbelievable standard of care that Harry rec'd from Billy.He went above+beyond anything I've ever seen in a vet's office+I have been taking my own dogs for ovet 25 yrs.now It's a most welcome place..enhanced by smiles+warmth from those lovely girls in Reception and a wonderful understanding of animals+the pain their owners/ carers feel when they're suffering. This is Harry's new " go to" vet's office..It's open from 7am..7pm...unbelievable,it's fairly priced,but,what's more important is that you know that the doctors +staff care. Anne.

Fantastic experience: Jellyqueen ‍⬛‍⬛ my beloved 16 year old and very stroppy cat now suffering some age related illnesses - is so much happier with Billy and everyone at Bay vets ! Very accessible and very caring Vet practice with great communication and follow up . All staff are kind and dedicated animal lovers.

Fantastic experience: My dogs unfortunately got very sick independent from each other in a few months. We had seen multiple vets in Dublin bay vets due to my work schedule and they all were able to address the root cause adequately. The supporting team is also very helpful! Highly recommend this place, they are above average!

Elaine Marie Walsh Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: When the vet I had been with for many years retired I had to look for a new one. Believe me not an easy job but when I found these guys they were very helpful. Nothing was too hard and no question asked was left unanswered. They had looked after Sally and Luna extremely well and I would happily recommend them.

Jennifer Mackey Reilly Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: We are on day 2 of recovery after having our beautiful girl JJ, spayed. The team made the experience so seamless and as an anxious dog mom they provided updates and provided assistance via text and checked her wound with pics prior to her official check up tomorrow, Sinead, Ophelia, Toni, Eric & Donal have all been so kind and helpful and provided so much reassurance and we even got some pics via WhatsApp before we picked her up yesterday which was wonderful to provide my autistic teenager as he was anxious about his furry companion. This has been my 3rd spay/neuter with different vets and I can confidently say this experience has given me the most reassurance and watching the staff interact with our little love was wonderful, they’re so kind and gentle the DBV team are earth angels! Thanks so much for your extraordinary care and compassion during this stressful time. It’s much appreciated Here’s some pics of Jj recovering supervised by her big brother, Beni

Joanne Green Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have attended Dublin bay vets several times with my young rabbit. More recently he was poorly and needed surgery to remove bladder stone. He was taken in the same day it was agreed he needed surgery as he was in pain. I got regular updates throughout the day by the vet and the team and was re assured he was being well looked after. Following procedure lots of follow up with regards to how he was doing and very detailed information on his care going forward. Highly recommend Dublin bay vets, have also mentioned to local pet shop that if people are looking for trustworthy caring service I recommend Dublin bay vets. The staff clearly care for the animals and are really pleasant and helpful to deal with.

Stef M Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Can’t recommend this vets enough. I unfortunately had to say goodbye to my dog of 17 years and the team were so helpful and compassionate. They made my nervous and snappy little boy very comfortable before we let him go and we were given as much time as we needed with him. They followed up with a beautiful sympathy card with his paw prints and a handwritten message. We just received his ashes today in the most beautiful and carefully packaged box. Couldn’t recommend them enough, they made a horrible situation as seamless as possible.

Alison Hayes Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Philip and the whole team at Dublin Bay Vets have been fantastic with the care of our aging dog. She’s had a few eye problems and the team are so caring, competent and kind to her when she has to visit. Very accommodating towards emergency visits too!

Aisling Murtagh Posted on Google 2 years ago

Negative experience: Started off as a super practice with excellent empathetic and knowledgeable vets. Now there is constantly new staff so that they cannot build up a relationship with your pets. Some new staff not only lack knowledge, empathy and experience they are also rude. After using this practice for nearly 4 years I had to remove my pets from their care.

Kathrin H Posted on Google 2 years ago

Negative experience: Overpriced meds They charged 172€ for standard blood pressure meds worth 100-110€. The price at 2 different vets elsewhere was 110€ (online 100). The possibility of a prescription was not discussed. There is no reason for 56% surcharge compared to other EU countries with even higher cost of living like Southern Germany. The price in Uk is also 100-110Eur. @Colm: it was for the meds as clearly stated in the invoice (detailed below now for even more transparency). An apology and a refund would have been better when I FIRST approached you about this matter with the aim of finding a solution. Amodip 1.25 100 (qty) 172€ Blood pressure monitoring 57€ Repeat consultation 38€ Total. 267€ I didn’t ask for 2+ 3. She was under supervision of a cardiologist before - that recommended a new check only much later. I provided that info in writing from the specialist and translated it. So 267€ to get the box of blood pressure meds, including 172€ for the actual medicine

Crystal Martinez Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Incredibly grateful for the team at Dublin Vets. My husband and I are here as expats and about 3 months in, our dog Till had a lump. Dublin Vets got us in same day, ran tests and unfortunately, but accurately, diagnosed him with cancer. Billy and team provided my husband multiple options and were on call to answer any question that we had so that we could make our care decision. Their team was with us the entire time, making sure Till was comfortable and providing education until the day came when we had to say goodbye. He was our first baby that has passed and the team was kind, loving, and compassionate. We were able to be with our boy in a calm and peaceful environment- knowing that we had a team of wonderful people caring for him his last months. After he passed, they checked in on us and dropped off his prints and the most beautiful card. We get to take him home with us and remember him, thanks to Billy and team. We can't thank you enough for your kindness and will be bringing our girls in soon to get their check ups

Shannon Lenihan Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dublin Bay Vets, the nicest staff. They have the highest standards. Constantly in contact about your animal. Nothing Is too much. Our puppy Bruno loves going to the vet. Ciara & Jess are amazing, always calming a worried dog mam. Donal is the best to our boy and very patient. Also, Billy was so gentle with our boy getting his vaccinations. The whole team of staff are next to none. I wouldn’t trust any other vets. Thank you everyone.

Martin Cowley Posted on Google 2 years ago

Negative experience: Very inexperienced practice.thus place after spending 500 e on my dog. They were looking for more tests ,TLI for pancreas insufficiency,by this stage ,I felt scammed, couldn't understand how earlier tests couldn't show problem. After 3 months. I went to different vet ,who spotted problem immediately. From visual RECTAL test. And viscosity of stool. Dublin bay vet did this at first. But failed to spot problem. Or maybe they were taking me for a fool ? Experience. !! You can't buy that. There's your answer Colm. Experience !!!

Fantastic experience: I recently visited Clongriffin Vet with my beloved cat, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment I stepped into the clinic, I was greeted by a team of professionals who exuded warmth and expertise. The staff at Clongriffin Vet went above and beyond to ensure that both my cat and I felt comfortable throughout the entire visit. Their genuine care and kindness were evident in every interaction. They took the time to listen to my concerns and answer all of my questions with patience and understanding. Not only did the team demonstrate exceptional bedside manners, but their professionalism and knowledge were also truly impressive. It was evident that they were highly skilled in their field, providing top-notch veterinary care. From the initial examination to the final treatment plan, I felt confident and reassured that my cat was in capable hands. The clinic itself was clean, well-maintained, and equipped with modern facilities. This added to the overall sense of professionalism and reliability that Clongriffin Vet exuded. It's clear that they prioritize the well-being of their furry patients and strive to create a comfortable environment for both pets and their owners. I highly recommend Clongriffin Vet to all pet owners in need of exceptional veterinary care. Their team's kindness, professionalism, and dedication to providing top-quality service make them stand out in the field. Thank you, Clongriffin Vet, for taking such excellent care of my cat.

Fantastic experience: A very friendly practice with dedicated and friendly vets and nursing team. My two dogs Luna and Reina receive excellent care there. We have had a lot of visits recently and all the team are so helpful. Philip has done a fantastic job in getting a diagnosis for Luna and explaining all the possibilities and options. It is easy to book appointments and if there is ever any concern about an animals health they will do their utmost to fit them in.

Jenny Mulry Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dublin Bay Vets were like the comfort blanket I never knew I needed. The vets, in particular Philip, explain everything so well. Those who manage the reception/anxious parents and patients are so welcoming, friendly and facilitate appointments without delay. I couldn't recommend them highly enough... Jx

Fantastic experience: I have a very nervous dog, but since I started bringing him to Dublin bay vets it is less stressful for my dog and me. All staff are helpful and understanding.

Patrick Dowling Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, great docs. Getting there is a little tricky if using Google maps. Easier to map it to the train station first, then the vet. Parking is usually close and easy.

Rebecca Griffiths Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Had my first visit here this month with my little Chihuahua Percy. I’m so glad I found these guys online because they’re the vets you need in your life They got me in straight away and was seen by a lovely vet Lucia. From start to finish I had a very positive experience and felt Percy was in great hands. The facility is spotless and modern, the staff are super friendly and caring and the prices are very reasonable considering most vets will cost you an arm and a leg they do there best to keep costs down. I’d highly recommend and will be back with our fur family again.

Aoife Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love it here!! If I could give 6 stars, I would. All the staff are so unbelievably friendly and welcoming, and they take care of each other and the animals so well. The vets are so skilled and passionate and were all an absolute pleasure to work with, and thank you so so much for this amazing opportunity , I'm just sorry it wasn't longer!! I hope to see you again in the future! Make sure to keep up the stellar work - Aoife P-S <3

Fantastic experience: Absolutely wonderful vets and such beautiful people I rang by chance to see if I could possibly get my 2 furry babies in their second vaccine as they were due the booster with the original vets that I go to, however the original vets did not have any availability today and I was under time pressure before the vaccines run out which is why I had called Dublin Bay vets in a panic as I am due to travel for 3 weeks on holiday and I had realised this vet clinic is a stone throw away from my home ! From the moment I had called , Dublin Bay Vets could not of did enough and had booked Me in for that day and told me not to worry that they would be there to help. And that they did, The Vet was so so lovely, so warming and really got to know My 2 furry babies before He then gave them the 2nd vaccination as I needed for them The clinic is beautiful, such cool vibes and meditation/ calming music for the animals which I adore I am so glad I had came here and I will now be back to them in future , My 2 babies where happy and I loved the approach everyone gave in the clinic, from the moment you walk in then to meet with the Vet, He was so lovely so welcoming and warm Thank you again for your help and many warm wishes Keep up the great work!

Fantastic experience: I visited Dublin Bay Vets for the first time today with my 10 week old pup for vaccination and worming. The initial welcome from the reception staff was very warm and friendly. Then we met the vet,Billy,and he couldn’t have been better. He put both me and my pup at ease straight away. He was very pleasant and informative and answered any questions I had. This vet was recommended to me from a friend and I am glad I chose them as I know both me and my pup will feel very comfortable visiting in the future. Thanks guys,keep up the great work. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: This vet practice is truly amazing. All the staff go above and beyond to care for the animals but also give time to the humans. Never feel rushed or silly for asking question, ever little detail is explained and then the follow up care is just the cherry on top .10 out 10. Thank you to all the staff of Dublin bay vets

Fantastic experience: Our dog has been a patient of Dublin Bay Vets for nearly 2 years now. Every single communication or visit in this clinic has left us with a smile on our faces. While we, humans, might not have been the easiest patients to deal with at times when our dog was feeling poorly, even then we've received nothing but the best care for our dog and understanding for ourselves in difficult situations by the DBV staff. I am highly recommending this clinic to all pet owners!

Fantastic experience: Lovely staff. Dublin Bay vets care for my animals and we were so well looked after when it came to end of life for one of my very old cats. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Roo has been here many times for different reasons and every time I can tell she is well cared for. You can tell all the staff absolutely love each dog and know them by name when they see them. They are all so gentle with the dogs.

Valentina C Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: You guys are amazing and will only use your services,even if we'd move 50 km away. Your staff always goes above and beyond to make one feel at ease and you can see their love for pets. Nissi always felt at ease with Colm. Thanks for looking after him. Always friendly, caring, professional and kind team. Really appreciate your working hours and empathy.....would be amazing if you'd also open a pet hotel for your usual regular clients ...now that Covid is gone,everyone travels more.There are not enough in the city..

Sophie Butler Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely excellent staff and facilities, my epeleptic cat is a patient with DBV and I would not trust her in anyone else's hands, after a poor experience in a near by vets with my other cat i decided to swap over to DBV and have never had a single issue, the vets I have dealt with (Etain & Sinéad) have been nothing but helpful, kind and compassionate towards me and my animals since attending there, whenever I have to leave my little kitty in for her routine testing my mind is always at ease knowing the safe hands she's in. I've owned animals my whole life and am aware of how dear vet bills can be, I'm always pleseantly surprised with how reasonable the pricing is compared to other practises especially considering the extremely high standards DBV hold themselves to! Thank you so much everyone in Dublin Bay Vets! You have a customer for life here!

Peter Gallagher Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: My daughter and I brought our Cockapoo up to Dublin Bay Vets today. Kobe was feeling sick over the last few days and was listless and getting sick. Lorea was the vet we met today and she, like Sinéad before her, was absolutely fabulous. Lorea and Sinéad have considerable expertise and a phenomenal manner. We couldn’t recommend Lorea and Sinéad highly enough. This is an exceptional good veterinary practice.

Marija Malina Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: We absolutely love DBV. They are so supportive and caring! All the staff is so friendly and accommodating. Every time we go in, without any hesitation they give our nervous dog space (usually a separate room) and plenty of treats. They are always a phone call away, which we really appreciate. We couldn’t recommend them enough!

Katriona Maher Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I found Dublin Bay Vets to be a very modern practice with great systems in place for caring for pets in purpose- built consultation rooms and for communicating with pet owners- via email and messaging - with up to date information on appointments, treatment etc The calm friendly, unhurried atmosphere was very welcome. Vet Sinead was very understanding and helpful and gave Yoshi ( and me!) all the time we needed - there was no rush. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed - all the staff I met could not have been nicer. Based on my experience I cannot recommend Dublin Bay Vets highly enough.

Virginia Asumendi Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great service from the whole team at Dublin Bay Vets. I have been bringing my dogs to them for the last year and a half. They always take the time to examine my dogs properly and to explain what's going on. I would definitely recommend Dublin Bay Vets.

fiona nevin Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Wonderful team here at Dublin Bay Vets. I have been bringing my dog here since he was a puppy and they always put him (and myself!) at ease! They really take their time to make us feel welcome and cared for. 5/5 service and I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Karen Brady Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Nurse Sarah is so caring, kind and highly skilled. I knew that my rabbit was in safe hands with her. She looked after her so well and educated me with fantastic nutritional advice. Highly recommend!

Alanna Galvin Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent and friendly service. Their practice is such a calming place to walk into. They really took the time to make sure that my nervous dog was happy and comfortable during her visit.

Clare Chambers Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Dublin Bay Vets highly enough, my sincere thanks to Eric and the team, Dave, and most of all Vet Caoimhe, their care of animals is second to none, my Jack Russell is 17 years old and nervous. The care they have taken with him is I am sure above and beyond any other veterinary practice, and the aftercare and follow up phone calls show their dedication to the work that they do. I would highly recommend them, and won't ever bring my boy to anyone else but Caoimhe now, she was so patient with me and really took the time to explain all of my boys medicine to me, and overall the team at DBV always take such care of him, and are extremely obliging in cases of emergency. Thank you to all at DBV from Clare and Pip.

Sinead Maire McManus Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Always a five star, professional service from vets Donal and Colm, whenever our kittens or puppy need anything. They have gone above and beyond to make their first few experiences at the vets stress free and relaxed.

Martin Lynam Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Met Colm today with my Dog Kai, had been to another Vet and not happy with his diagnosis as felt wrong. Colm met myself & Kai and put me at ease immediately. He was very knowledgeable and I felt Kai was in safe hands immediately. He gave a different diagnosis to previous and explained and showed fully his findings. I would fully recommend this practice and the professionalism of its staff from first contact to last.

Jimmy Burke Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Fantastic pet Palace. I have to be honest I have had dogs all my life and sometimes I have to take them to see a Vet. A few times I have been a bit disappointed. Now Dublin Bay Vets are in a different league. I am so impressed with the quality and team work the care and attention my sick dog got was amazing. We got a few follow up calls days later to see how we were doing. My dog is in great health and I'm so happy with the Best Vet in Ireland. JIMMY IN SUTTON

Deirdre Walsh Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent, professional, friendly service in a relaxed setting. My extremely nervous dog was treated with so much kindness. I really appreciated the follow up text to make sure Buddy was OK and to contact them if I'd any questions. We'll definitely be back and would highly recommend Dublin Bay Vets .

Justine Leitarte Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: My corgi Cinnamon has been with Dublin Bay Vets since she was a puppy and we have been there for her health checks, neutering and any other procedures in between and have nothing but good to say about the amazing staff and great doctors. They always made time for the appointments on the day of when we called and followed up on Cinnie's well-being after the procedures via texts or emails. Vets there are very diligent. Because of additional checks that one of the vets did whilst we came in for a limp that Cinnamon had at the time, she got early diagnosed of a hip dysplasia, which allows us to manage her condition early. We just moved to another country and having Dublin Bay Vets assist with any pre-departure requirements was extremely helpful. They also sent Cinnamon's health file to my email, so we can share all the details with our new vets in Berlin. 10/10! :)

Ana Maria Ioan Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Very kind & helpful veterinary team. Calming atmosphere. My dog is very nervous, especially when going to vet, but this time Wolfie had a comfortable experience. Thank you Dublin Bay Vets! See you next time

Ian Goode Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: We've been bringing our 1 year old pup Mac to Dublin Bay Vets ever since we got him. Their staff are incredibly knowledgable and friendly to boot. Mac had to have some overnight stays for pancreatitis at one point and we got several phone calls a day with reassuring updates. He's been thriving ever since following their advice. Moving away from the area soon and devastated to have to find a new vet!

RUKS k Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Fantastic vet every single staff member is amazing. As new pet owners they answer all your silly questions and also give valuable advice. The whole team is kind, patient and very welcoming. The clinic itself is spotless and our dogs loves going to the vet!!! That would be the most important review, I guess!!

Annique van Niekerk Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best vet we’ve ever used. They offer a really amazing service with people who really care about your pet doing well before, during and after treatments. They even send a reminder text for monthly mediations like dewormers, which is incredibly helpful! They have also caught some issues other vets have missed. Can’t recommend them enough.

Carolyn Sheridan Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Rang Dublin Bay Vets as we had a dog emergency situation and my own vets wouldn’t see him. Dublin Bay Vets took him in immediately and were so caring and kind to him. I would highly recommend. So reassuring to have vets take your dog’s health as seriously as you do.

Hoof Hearted Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Caring for a Maltese while owner is away. He was displaying symptoms that owner described required a vet before. Rang DBV just before they were due to close. Reception said they would check with vet. Vet rang back and said to bring him down, they would wait. Got seen and sorted. He is now having a nap after being restless since this afternoon. They will ring me tomorrow to see how he is. Great service, thanks.

Jessica Ryan Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Incredible. Had my very nervous dog in for a check up and subsequent dental treatment and could not be happier! All staff are so kind and friendly, immediately made my dog (and me!) feel more comfortable with the whole experience. Everything is explained in detail and most importantly you never feel rushed out the door! Amazing service at really a competitive price. Opted in to the GA support for my dogs dental treatment and it’s as if she was never under anaesthesia at all - amazing. Thanks again guys, we’ll see you soon!

Gemma Maher Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had my dog booked in with Dublin Bay to be spayed and I was very nervous as my girl is 6 so was unsure of her with the anaesthetic and that. The guys at Dublin bay really put my nerves at ease with all the reassurance and sent me a text message the minute her surgery was over to let me know how it went and how she was, and another to check in on her the next day. I Have never experienced such good customer service when it comes to veterinarians. So pleased she was in great hands. Excellent service

jenny stanley Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Unbelievable service. Everyone is so kind and helpful. They checked up on my sick cat and made both my animals feel comfortable during their visits. They are punctual and have a very easy online booking system. Cannot recommend enough. I hope their high standard of service continues as the clinic continues to grow. Thank you for your care!

Kat G Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Amazing place, all the staff are very friendly. Great veterinary care at a fair price. Very calming atmosphere, all the vets truly care about the pets and make sure you understand everything about your pets needs and veterinary care.

Mimy Trocks Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Always very helpful, informative and accommodating. They truly seem like they care for each pet that they look after and always pay full attention and interest to each patient. We've moved away from the area, yet still visit them; even registered our second doggie with them. Highly recommended. Leia and Cayde can't wait for their next visit! :)

Michele Ridgway Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I am very happy with the care and service from Dublin Bay Vets. The follow up is very good - it’s nice to receive text updates on the condition of your animal if they are having a procedure and to get the text a couple of days after to see how they are recovering. Also easy to park, clean and fresh examining rooms and nice people.

Xavi Reilly Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Would like to thank Donal and his team at Dublin Bay Vets for all there dedication , help advice and treatment of our dog Buster who was diagnosed with cancer last year and unfortunately had to be put asleep today.From day one they were truly professional in the way they helped our dog and cared for him until it was time for us to make the heartbreaking decision to have Buster put to sleep. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Nikki Krajisnik Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Dublin bay vets to anyone looking for a new clinic for their pets or looking to change vets. The clinic is clean, calm and inviting and the staff are all amazing. Our dog is quite nervous and I am always so appreciative of their patience and understanding. Our vet donal is great I am really happy with the care provided here. Honestly think Dublin bay vets are the best clinic to go to

Fernandino Silva Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: This place is great. It took me a long time to find a Vet that I can trust to have my dogs looked after. The reception is cozy and plays an awesome calming music, the nurses are amazing and really interested in wellbeing, the vets are thoughtful and really seem to care about my dogs. Definitely recommend these guys for everything one might need.

Eleanor Erel Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Our new puppy unfortunately encountered a very nasty accident and Dublin Bay Vets were our miracle- they looked after him immediately and kept me informed in the most professional manner. Thanks to the care by the whole team, our little guy is already bouncing back and we are beyond relieved he got a second chance. Thank you Ravi, Colm, Emily, Sarah and everyone who looked after our Bowie. You are absolute superstars and we cannot thank you enough!

Siobhan Gallagher Posted on Google 4 years ago

Gemma O'Moore Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Unfortunately we had to put our dog to sleep and they were so kind and respectful of all our wishes. They answered all our questions with full honesty and compassion. I would have no hesitation in recommending to all. Thank you for helping our Molly when she needed it the most

Mel Ob Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: We had a great experience here, our dog Roxy had had three tumours removed with stitches, the operation was so well done that Roxy was back to herself within two days. She is an older dog and we were expecting different. The vet really did an excellent job. The whole experience was very calming for us her owners aswell, it was like our worry was taken off of us, there was no stress. We would very much recommend Dublin Bay Vets, even the receptionists are amazing, very professional, straight to the point and very welcoming. Money well spent.

Anatolie Rosca Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Amazing Vets, they have provided me with a remedy for a long lasting problem with fleas for my pet cat Mia. They also helped Mia with skin conditions. The rate if healing I found astonishing. I'm very happy with Dublin Bay Vets and will continue to go to them for any other problems with my cat. Would recommend anyone to bring their pets here as Dublin Bay Vets is superior to other Vets in the area

Charlotte L Posted on Google 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I brought my 3 month kitten here urgently because my local vet was closed and wanted to immediately check on my kitten as she had an accident with her eye while playing, and her eye was all red. They booked me in for an appointment very fast. This vet was the best i’ve ever visited, such a professional team and will now be my permanent vet with my new 2 kittens I’ve just adopted. The vet was so friendly and professional and my kitten who is usually so shy was visibly comfortable with her. The vet even checked up on me and my kitten 3 days later which shows they care and that’s the first time I’ve seen that from a vet practice. The whole veterinary practice looked so modern and clean inside and there was calming music playing in the background. My kitten Sushi is much better , her eye visibly looks back to normal and I will be taking my kittens back here for their vaccinations soon Thanks!! ⭐️
