We can offer flexible working hours to get the best work / life balance for everyone.Very low turnover of staff resulting in a stable team who work well together, supporting each other, as well as clients and their pets.We have been established for over 60 years and strive to provide bespoke individual care for all our patients, owners and staff.The low number of clients per vet enables the team to spent more time on each case. We get to know the owners and their pets as individuals and treat them as such.
We are located in Blackburn, Lancashire in a small town near the Ribble Valley and Forest of Bowland with easy access to the Yorkshire Dales and Lake district

We try to accommodate everyone's requirements and work together to meet everyone's needs.Just ask for your ideal rota and we will do our best to work with you.
