Nestled in Dapto, NSW, the Companion Animal Veterinary Hospital is your go-to spot for dedicated pet care, serving both pets and their families with genuine warmth and expertise. Established in October 2009 by Dr. Matt Young, a local who’s as much a part of Dapto as the community itself, this hospital is more than just a veterinary practice; it’s a place where every pet is treated like a member of our family.
Our team is trained in gentle, cat-friendly handling techniques, we never scruff, and we always work to reduce stress and anxiety. Being cat friendly is a big part of our commitment to providing truly fear-free care.
Staff are very welcoming and extremely knowledgeable. Service is great and the set up is terrific for all animals. I love the separate cat waiting area to ensure that your pets stress levels are kept as low as possible. Thank you to all the staff for everything you do ❤️
