Vet services and prices
What we do at Larkfield Vets, how long it takes and what it usually costs. The vet confirms the price before any treatment.
What we do
Every visit starts with a 20-minute appointment with a vet or nurse. You get a price before any treatment, and the vet explains the choices.
Health checks and vaccinations
Nose-to-tail check, weight, teeth and the vaccines your pet needs for its age and lifestyle.
From $58
Neutering
Spays and castrations for dogs, cats and rabbits. In at 08:15, home the same afternoon in most cases.
From $190
Dental care
Dental checks in every consultation; scale, polish and extractions under anaesthetic when needed.
From $240
Surgery and diagnostics
Digital X-ray, ultrasound and blood tests in our own lab, so most results come back the same day.

Nurse clinics
Weight checks, nail clips, microchips and checks after an operation, with a veterinary nurse.

Emergencies
Day-time emergencies are seen at the clinic; at night your call goes to our out-of-hours vets.

Pets we see
Dogs, cats and rabbits make up most of our day. We also see guinea pigs, ferrets, rats and other small pets; ask reception which vet to book.
Dogs
Puppy courses, yearly boosters, neutering, dentals, senior checks.
Cats
Cat-only waiting room, Thursday cat clinic, kitten courses.
Rabbits
Combined yearly vaccine, teeth and diet checks, neutering.
Small pets
Guinea pigs, ferrets, rats and hamsters, by appointment.
Surgery and diagnostics
When a check is not enough, most tests can be done the same day: digital X-ray, ultrasound and blood tests in our lab. Operations happen on weekday mornings; your pet goes home in the afternoon or stays in the ward overnight.
- A written estimate before any operation
- A phone call from the vet when your pet wakes up
- A free nurse check two to three days later
