Absolute game changer! The application was easy and quick, the docs I had to upload confirming the vaccination had an error but this was not rejected or passed back as an issue to me. Instead, Christoph contacted me and my vets and got it sorted with them directly! Whenever in contact with me, he was so polite and friendly! The payment options are also very convenient and the cert costs half the price that my vet asks! I was kept up to date and everything was confirmed and ready for pick up. The directions to the place were detailed and we had no issue finding the place,which is so conveniently located just by EuroTunnel. The pick up was easy and quick and again the service we received was second to none. I could not wish for anything more. I will not use any other services ever again! Thank you! PS. at least you know what you are paying for! ;)

Absolutely amazing service! They are incredibly responsive and called my own vet to request the details from our dogs, and they were very flexible with the collection time as our ferry got rescheduled. The paperwork was very well explained and we crossed the border without issues. And also important, the price is amazing compared to other vets. We will definitely use them again.

I recently used Easy Pet Travel for obtaining animal health certificates for my two dogs, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with their service. The vets were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, answering all our questions with patience and expertise. They guided us through the entire process, ensuring we had all the necessary documentation for a smooth journey. Their professionalism and care made a potentially stressful situation much easier. Highly recommend Easy Pet Travel for anyone traveling with pets!

Really easy to arrange online. Collection was quick, friendly and the document explained as it was our first time travelling with our dogs. Much more cost effective than using our own vet. Would highly recommend and would use again for any future requirements.

Just a quick review for Dr Birgit. We took our little 7 year old Chihuahua x Yorkie( Lily) to Birgit when she was diagnosed with advanced lung cancer. That was over 7 months ago and Lily is doing fine. Quality of life is excellent and shows no signs of deteriating. In fact She's as active and cheeky as ever. I think the outcome with a traditional vet would have been pretty poor and would have meant a lot of vet visits and separation not to mention some big bills. We have not been apart from Lily once and could not be more pleased with her treatment and of course the fact that she is still with us and doing so well. Thank you Birgit. You are wonderful.

I cannot thank Birgit and her incredible team enough for the care and support they provided for my beloved dog, Blue. From the very beginning, Birgit’s holistic and natural approach to veterinary care was exactly what I had been searching for. Her expertise and the wonderful therapies and remedies she recommended gave Blue a longer, happier, and healthier life than we ever imagined possible. The entire team at the practice has been so kind and compassionate. Every phone call, every medication order, and every word of support meant the world to me during some very difficult times. They genuinely care, not just for the animals but also for the families they help. When we sadly lost Blue, at age 16, the thoughtful sympathy card they sent with personal messages from the whole team brought us so much comfort. It was such a kind and touching gesture. Blue was a truly special dog—a beautiful soul who brought immense joy to our lives and touched the hearts of everyone who met him. He wasn’t just our pet; he was family, and in many ways, he rescued us as much as we rescued him. Birgit and her team gave us precious extra time with him, and for that, I will always be grateful. I highly recommend Birgit and her team to anyone looking for compassionate, expert care for their pets. If you’re considering holistic and natural veterinary care, don’t hesitate to get in touch—you and your furry friends will be in the best hands. Thank you for everything you do—you are all amazing. Much love Tracy

In late September 2023 my Labrador sustained what I thought was an injury to his lower back. He was very distressed and in a lot of pain. Naturally I rushed him to the vets and after a couple of weeks on anti-inflammatory and pain relief drugs he wasn't better. We were referred to specialist vets for scans, MRI's and tests to discover he had a degenerative condition called IVDD (bulging discs). Treatments were offered but all of them were invasive, carried huge risks and crazy expensive with no guarantee of success. He was also on very limited exercise which, any Labrador owner would know is very hard to manage because as a breed they need lots of exercise! After researching his condition and looking at alternative treatments I started taking him to hydrotherapy which is where I was recommended Birgit. Being keen to avoid surgery/invasive treatments and the damaging effects of him taking long term drugs I contacted her and we began our journey of acupuncture, Chinese herbs and homeopathic treatments. Birgit has been incredible, she has worked her magic and as I write this today I have a healthy well exercised Labrador not needing surgery, invasive treatment or drugs. I honestly can't recommend Birgit enough, we are both so grateful and I will ALWAYS champion the holistic route for any of my pets health needs. Birgit, we both thank you so much, you are so very special to us.

I wanted to post a recommendation. My little rescue cat Lily, was diagnosed with stomatitis a year or so ago by conventional vets. I did not resonate with the treatment they wanted to give her, so went holistic via research on the Internet. However after some months of improvement I went to Birgit for an assessment. To cut a long story short, my Lily is impossible to get to the vet, for me anyway, but lovely Valentina, the new vet, has made several visits to monitor Lily's progress and supplements, and give her acupuncture. I just wanted to say that after Valentina's visit today, our little Lily called for us and showed herself rolling around showing her tummy, something hardly ever seen. Even though I have done lots of research for Lily's health, it is so reassuring to have Valentina to look at her and examine her every so often as Lily also needs acupuncture for her emotional health and it is obvious that she is much happier. And also Valentina is wonderful in examining Lily in corners, in cupboards or other hidey holes. Nothing is too much trouble. Thank you so much Valentina and Birgit. Our dear little girl is so much better after her hard start in life.

On Wednesday morning, my doggy was still in a lot of pain with her back from a visit to the seaside the Saturday before. By Thursday evening the treatment had worked and she was able to jump back on the sofa, as well as run around with her brothers and stand up at the window again. We're so pleased - thank you from us and Sylvia :)

I cannot express my gratitude to John and his team for the dignity and respect he gave to my beloved cat, Thomas, when it was time for him to pass 🙏 He turned a heartbreaking event into a beautiful moment that will comfort me for years to come. I highly recommend.

Great service and great vets. John and Saba were so attentive with my girl and kept checking up every day before and after her surgery. They were both so kind and answered all my questions. I would recommend them 100% I will now register all my dogs with them. Thank you for all you've done for me, Sigrid and baby x

John and Saba were absolutely amazing with our recent tragic and unexpected loss of our cat Bella. John saw us without hesitation and spent 1hr with us 10:30pm to 11:30pm Friday night. He administered multiple medications and pain killers to make Bella more comfortable over night. We then called John and Sabba out for a home visit on Saturday morning when we had to make the devastating decision to put Bella to sleep. John and Saba dealt with Bella and us with great compassion and we can’t thank them both enough for their kindness and efforts to make Bella as comfortable as possible and to allow us to say goodbye to Bella at home rather than having to take her into the practice. We shall be forever grateful ❤️ xx

After having bad experiences at another local vets, I transferred to Heronden and it was the best decision I have made for my two dogs! The team were all so welcoming and accommodating with my many requests and concerns and always made an extra effort to make it a positive experience for my dog. The vet (Katie) took time to explain everything to me in detail which really helped ease any anxieties caused by previous vets. She was patient and kind to my dog and paid great attention to his reactions to ensure that he was comfortable. Would recommend this practice 1000%.

We have recently joined Heronden Vets after a bad experience at a previous vets. All of the staff have taken time to get to know Roddy and reassure him. He gets spoilt with lots of treats and fusses. We have decided to take Roddy along weekly to try and get him used to it, all of the staff have been so patient and understanding. Thanks to Heronden the vets has gone from being a bad experience, to a much calmer and relaxed environment for him. Thank you for allowing us to work through this, it wouldn't be possible your support.

Today was my first visit to Heronden Veterinary Practice with my dog Teddy. Very easy to find, good size car park. Receptionist was very welcoming and friendly, made a great fuss of Teddy, which he loved. The vet was also very friendly and helpful. He was great with Ted. I'm so glad I made the change 😊

One of the most compassionate yet professional vet practices I have come across. The staff are lovely and my dog loves going in there. We had an excellent experience with his neuter surgery where he healed beautifully. And more recently a last minute need for travel paperwork and they went above and beyond to help get what was needed. Highly recommend this non corporate practice. Michele and Maui

Many thanks to the two lovely ladies who came out to us Wednesday to put our dog to sleep. You where both great and caring. Your pricing compared to another vets in deal we was with was half the costs quoted by them. So happy with the service, we will be bringing our cats to you and any future animals we have. Alex

Dafne vets have always gone above and beyond for my Doggies! They have always been professional but with so much compassion! I am so grateful to Nikos and his team for giving my beautiful Girl Lottie an extra 18months with us! The team and Yoni couldn’t do any more to support us and give Lottie the dignified, compassionate care when it was her time to cross Rainbow Bridge. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Tracey, Nick (and I know Lottie would agree.) Xxxx

I came to Dafne Vets a couple of months ago for a referal and have never left! I couldnt have found a better veterinary hospital! They are truly kind, knowledge, take the time to explain everything, and most of all treat your pet as if it was there own in such a loving way. The first time I walked I, I was greeted so kindly, by Sara at reception, who was knowledgeable and put me at ease immediately. We had a truely wonderful vet Emilia who I can't thank enough! She looked at Milo referral documents on her day off. Did an altrasound, and investigated throughly, he had a small surgery, the stitches were so neat and he's healed amazingly, she is truly a gifted vet, treating Milo as if he was her own. I now never need to worry, and feel lucky to have found such a great vet and veterinary hospital. Thank you, Milo Robins and his mum ❤️

I signed both our Cats up with Dafne Vets this January after a difficult time with another practice. Our little girl Mabel has been cared for so well. Firstly she needed to have all her teeth extracted which was worrying for us but was carried out with absolute care. She is now a different little cat. Yesterday I needed to take her back as she was very lethargic. Again she was treated with care and professionalism. I highly recommend Nikos and his team at Dafne Vets

Fantastic new vet practice in Chartham. Clean and modern facilities and friendly staff. I urgently needed an appointment for my dog but was registered at a different vets. Despite this they gave me an appointment at very short notice. The veterinarian Charlotte was fantastic - she did a thorough examination, explained her observations clearly and gave useful and practical advice. After a stressful few days she really put my mind at ease. A big thank you to the Vet Shack team!
