The Little Vet Company – Vets in Market Drayton
Clinic Overview
The Little Vet Company is a small veterinary practice (no corporate group mentioned in the available information). Based on recent reviews, it appears set up for both routine appointments and same‑day urgent assessments, with diagnostic work-ups (scans and blood tests) and considerable support around end‑of‑life decisions. Owners repeatedly describe being given time in the consult room and clear explanations of options and outcomes.
Concrete examples mentioned include: fitting in a guinea pig at short notice and performing a pregnancy scan; running scans and bloods for a suddenly unwell dog; and offering at-home euthanasia so a pet could pass with other household dogs present.

I can't thank The Little Vet Company enough. I'd originally booked in all 3 of my female guinea pigs for yesterday but had to cancel due to other circumstances coming up. I suspected my guinea pig Clover was pregnant, so I rang to see if they could infact squeeze her in, which they did 1 hour later. They did a scan for me, and confirmed Clover is a mummy to be. The two ladies who helped me were amazing đź‘Ź you can tell they have a strong passion and care for animals. Thank you again

The best vets locally by far! I was so fortunate to know some of the vets from my previous vet- as my dog had an autoimmune condition which wasn’t common- luckily they managed to book her in with some of the some vets that knew her- unfortunately I lost my dog- but the compassion showed by all at the vets was brilliant- no rush to get out so they could use the room- they allowed time and patience- 5 star

Our first visit here yesterday was with our elderly dog. Sarah was super lovely with her and informed us of all the possible outcomes for her. We felt it was a much more personal service that we have missed out on for a long time! We have moved over to these vets permanently now and look forward to the friendly approach we received. I would highly recommend them.

Took my French bulldog to the little vet company because he suddenly was taken ill at 9 years old, they quickly did scans and bloods but sadly he had cancer of the liver and there was nothing that could be done! Polly the vet let us stay with I’m for as long as we needed and when the time came to put him to sleep sat on the floor with us and fed him gravy bones ( which he ate) as she injected him , I can’t thank her enough for the positive experience of end of life for him! This veterinary has the personal touch ! Keep up your fantastic work!

I am so happy I moved my dogs care to The Little Vet company. When it comes time to say goodbye to one of your pets, it is never easy but Dermot and Tracey were brilliant. They came to our house so Shadow could pass at home and my other 2 dogs could say goodbye. You could see their real care for my boy and for me. I can't thank them enough for giving Shadow the passing we felt that was right for him.
