"It doesn’t matter if it’s an ear infection, tummy upset or broken leg – they can all come in and will be treated by experienced veterinary staff ready to help.

"We hope our service will give pet owners peace of mind – they now have somewhere to bring their pets when they are ill over the weekend, not just during the week," Dr Hill says.
