My partner took our reactive girl Layla to Companion Animal Veterinary Hospital for the first time today and he saw Ben. We cannot thank you enough for listening to my long list of worries and finally finding a practice that ensures their vets practice fear free techniques. Cannot recommend you guys enough - thank you again! Will see you soon!

I would highly recommend Companion Animal Veterinary Hospital. We were always made to feel comfortable there and last week they were very professional and caring when we had to make that hard decision for our dog Sammy to have his angel wings.. We then received a bunch of beautiful flowers with Sammy's paw prints. It's the extra detail that means so much. Thank You for your compassion.

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 ❤️

Took my elderly rabbit in for a checkup and the staff were absolutely wonderful to my partner and I even though they were quite busy. Our bunny was handled with care by everyone that touched him.
The new building is a convenient location and they seem to still have dedicated parking out back. I think you can access it from the side street parallel to Baan Baan.

So incredibly impressed with this veterinarian clinic, every time I have called with an emergency their friendly staff are always happy to help regardless of how busy they are and have taken in the animal. They are professional and kind dealing with vulnerable people who want the best for their animals. Thank you for helping animals in need without any hesitation.

I am very glad that we found this vet when our cat wasn't feeling the best, they fit us in after we had been calling all around the Illawarra for a vet. They have great customer service, remembering who our cat was and following up on him afterwards

I've only been met with the upmost compassion and incredible service. Their knowledge is beyond amazing and their separate areas for the cats is great.
Thank you for helping ease my anxiety and always being understanding with me, it goes a long way. I couldn't thank you more or recommend a vet more.

I recently had to say goodbye to my beloved dog, and I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the exceptional care and compassion the team at Companion's showed us during this incredibly difficult time. From the moment we arrived, the staff were warm, understanding, and patient. They gave us space to say our goodbyes while also providing us with gentle guidance through the process.
They wereincredibly compassionate, explaining everything clearly and making sure we felt supported throughout. They allowed us to be with our dog until the very end, which provided a sense of peace amidst the sadness. The clinic’s environment was calm and comforting, which made a world of difference in such an emotional moment.
It’s never easy to make the decision to let go, but the kind and professional service we received from Companion Animals Dapto made the process as peaceful as possible. I’m so thankful for their kindness and expertise during such a painful experience.

Since the moment of my gorgeous girl's diagnosis, I found empathy, kindness, and a fully informed explanation of available treatment options. Throughout my girl Lily's illness, everyone I had contact with at Companion Animal Vets has helped me process and manage from a dark place to the other side.

Thank you Companion Vet team for looking after our dog Chloe. We were told about all available treatment options and we were able to make an informed decision about what would work best for Chloe. Good news is, she's good as new now (well, as good as a 13 year cocker spaniel can be). Thanks guys.

Always lovely, timely and understanding of all situations, i cannot recommend them enough, thank you for helping my fuzzies in need. - Aragog and Lola-Bean.

I ordered my very fussy dogs food through this vet and it arrived the next day. When I went to collect my bub was asleep in the car so the staff brought the card machine and food to the car for me. Great service all round!
Nicole Chambers
I am overwhelmed by the support & friendliness I received from Companion Vet Dapto on the heart breaking decision to put our beloved dog down of 14 years. From the word go all the staff were so sympathetic to myself & my families needs. They gave us a quiet room to sit in while I was waiting for my family, then put all of us in another room with Roxy to spend time with her for the last time. Sam who did the procedure was very professional & understanding, giving us quiet time alone with her after it was done.
I would definitely recommend them to anyone whose animals mean the world to them, they are all one in a million & I thank you all so much.
Also for the thoughtful flowers that were left at my door, the day I picked her ashes up.

Can't thank them enough for their help with my dog. Highly recommend you checking them out. It's a good feeling when your dog isn't afraid of going to the vet probably hear it a lot but they have my vote.

The level of care and kindness the team gave to my dog was second to none. After being in their care for a week she has come home happy.

The staff are caring and compassionate. We were gently guided through a difficult situation and never felt like we were being sold a product, but provided a professional service with options. An excellent veterinary clinic.
Jake Kearns
Very nice staff, they went above and beyond for my little Bonnie who was covered in ticks.

Friendly place. Love the reception cat. Staff were knowledgeable.

I received a kitten from the cat distribution service. The vet is caring, and has a quick and efficient service. Completed a kitten microchip and 3 courses (starter) vaccinations. Very impressed.
Adam Forsyth
Have used this vet multiple times for my pet cats, rats and dog.
Always very professional and have undertaken life saving surgery on one of my cats.
Couldn’t recommend more.

Was in need of prescription type dog food that is in short supply after recent fire at dog food company's manufacturing site here in Australia .... Needed to keep pup on this food as in middle of an allergy type trial ... my vets in Kiama had none available and suggested I ring around ... Dapto had some and were very helpful on the phone. When I went to pick it up they have aghod parking area off a rear lane with rear entry ... they have a cool corridor with all pictures of pets ... they have a cat hotel and have some gold cat rating (I'm a dog person but even I was pretty impressed) and have a totally separate area for cats to the main area for their whole vet visits. The lady who served me was again very helpful even offering to help with the dog food bags even though she was busy and I was not a usual customer. They had a good range of products and seemed to be well set up... I I needed vet care in that area or my own long term vets in my area were not available I would seriously consider going here.

Exceptional vet practice, our Golden Retriever was cared for by this incredible team of vets, nurses and support staff throughout all stages of his life.
Now we start the journey again with our new pup and I couldn't even think of going somewhere else.
We travel to Dapto from Kiama because of how well this team treats the animals in their care.
I would highly recommend Companion Animal Vet Hospital to all pet owners in the Illawarra.
Pierangela Casarotti
I'd like to compliment Vet nurse Cal for his professional and gentle manner for coming to my home to give Poppy his arthritis shot. I was anxious and thought it may have been a bad idea but it turned out well. Took 5 minutes and no stress for either Poppy or me.
Thank you
Tia Donovan
Thank you to the whole team for always having great customer service and treating my 2 girls like their own pets. Massive shoutout to Emily tonight for putting up with Bounty and Chino being anxious for their appointment. Emily took her time and helped create a calm environment for our appointment.
Matt Johnson
Took care of my dog for the majority of his life with various surgeries and other issues and were there for his recent passing. Genuine animal lovers with compassion and understanding. I little bit expensive but absolutely worth it for the level of care and professionalism. I'll definitely take my future dogs to them for as long as Matt is at the helm.
Tina Czarniszuk
Always available in emergency and very good with animals
Hollie P
The best vet for our whippet Mimi she unfortunately has had to have 2 rounds of stitches for 2 seperate injuries and the vets and team were so lovely and kind. Bec and Mel were amazing with Mimi and I can’t fault our experience. Thank you for taking care of Mimi x
