Service area and travel

Standard prices apply within the Gentlekin core area: locations normally reachable within about ten minutes. For homes in the nearby extended area, £3 is added per visit. Further locations are quoted individually. See Areas Covered.

Medication and complex care

Straightforward tablets, drops or topical medication are included in the normal visit price. Injections, complex medication schedules, wound care, animals that resist treatment or visits needing substantially more time are priced following assessment at the meet-and-greet, and only offered where care can be provided safely and confidently.
