Welcome to Castle Vets in Dorchester and Weymouth

Trusted, local, independent vet care.

We are an independent vet specialising in small animal care in the heart of Dorset. Our vet clinics are based in Dorchester (Poundbury) and Weymouth and we serve all the surrounding villages from both our branches.

Our friendly and very experienced vets and nurses are here for you seven days a week. We offer comprehensive, modern facilities with ample parking. We offer appointments from 8am until 7pm and provide a 24 hour emergency service to our registered clients, so you can see us whenever you need to.

Join us on PetsApp today!

We are proud to announce that thanks to our various wonderful technology partners we have rolled out our text based chat app.

You can use the app to talk to our team about general enquiries, for making medication requests and for booking appointments. We also have the ability to provide video consultations when needed.

We think this will be an essential addition to our ongoing service through these difficult times and in the future.

Castle Vet's lovely. Welcoming! Organized! Knowledgable! And friendly!

Private practice so helpful and very careing. Piece of mind.
A very caring vet with very helpful staff. I've always managed to get an appointment quickly. Would highly recommend.
Have just registered our new pup here after the passing of our old Spaniel. Staff are friendly and ready to answer any questions. Appointments run to time and good parking outside.
Lovely kind staff. Great facilities.
Communicated and were responsive, not used their services with a visit yet...
Every time we've had to use Castle everyone you come in contact with is helpful and friendly. Thank you
Lovely people friendly service
Highly recommend, We've used this clinic for over 10 years and wouldn't go anywhere else.
Got an appointment fairly easily for my pet, but only annoyance is that you can't go in with your pet due to Covid! Could if owner went in instead of staff. Their excuse is not enough room to social distance. But they're very good with animals and explain everything. I'd be happy to wear gloves, etc to be able to stay with them
Excellent service. Vets obviously love the animals and deliver the best care.
Always there when you need them and all the staff are wonderful with the animals and their people , I couldn't ask for a better vet practice. P. S. Please include Broadway practice with this comment x
Fantastic! I can't fault at all... Looked after my cat so well and very reasonable prices
Absolutely outstanding service. All staff wonderful and the vets are incredible. Highly recommend
