I definitely would Not Recommend this practice if you care about your pet at sll. My beautiful dog Milo was misdiagnosed at this practice. As a result of this misdiagnosis, they carried out an unecessary operation for a blocked bowel, which he did not have. At Cara Vets he picked up MRSA and MRSP, resulting in an incredibly painful dying off of half the skin on his tummy over the day and a half after his operation, whilst at the practice. I was not allowed to see him during this time. After which they finally rang and told me he needed to be brought to UCD Vetinary Hospital Urgently, and I needed to get a taxi to bring him there immediately.
Milo spent five weeks in isolation in UCD, as they tried to cure the MRSA and MRSA. Milo shrunk to skin and bone, and was shutting down as a result of the isolation. At the end of his time there, it was discovered he was misdiagnosed in the first place, and never needed the operation carried out by Cara Vets, where he picked up the MRSA and MRSP. Milo only lived for some weeks after his release from UCD Vet Hospital.
Cara never apologised for what happened to him, and charged me over 800 Euro for carrying out the operation, despite causing a further bill of over 2,000 Euro in UCD to deal with the MRSA and MRSP.
I found the Practice Manager at Cara to be very unsympathetic to the pain and suffering caused, and only interested in their 800 Euro.
I would Definitely Not Recommend the practice under any circumstances.

We went there once and would not be back. Our small puppy got an eye infection and we did overreact, it was weekend (as it is in those cases) and this place was the only one around which was open. So we went there (thinking it will be our puppy’s VET anyway). The first thing I heard was that I must have an appointment to see the Vet but instead of sending us away, which I wish they did, they took us in with all the puffing and annoyance one can show another human being. We heard how we should have had an appointment twice from receptionist upon arrival, twice from the Vet and at least few more times after the visit, while making the payment. I did not hear half as much about my puppy's health as I heard about the appointment I did not have. I did so much of apologizing I felt as if I ruined someone’s wedding day. They charged us of course, handsomely for their precious time (still, not a smile between the two of them). We had many questions about the puppy but we left with no answers feeling as if this is one of those places that operates on “one appointment per one issue only” basis. Please note we paid full fee for the visit, another fee for an eye test plus medicine so it is not as if anyone was doing us a favor of any sort. This is the closest Vet clinic around but we prefer now to drive across the town to the VET that actually does his job for the right reasons. (I'm giving two stars because the eye drops worked).

We've been going to Cara for over 6 years with our bunny Biscuit. A lot of places treat anything that's not a cat or dog like an afterthought but Cara have always been exceptional. We had a tough time last year, it was very touch and go but Cara were with us every step of the way and kept us informed. Luckily she came through and is back to loving life! Every time we bring her in she gets 5 star treatment and I always feel confident leaving her in the hands of Jenny, Syd, Tracey, Kirsten, etc. The biggest plus for me is that you can tell they actually all care which is worth its weight in gold. Keep up the good work!

I think Cara have let themselves down badly they let a two year old and a five year old Little boys go to bed tonight crying their eyes out not knowing if their puppy poppy was dead or alive. Instead of being compassionate as their mission statement states they Are their vet witheld all information regarding the puppy unless he was given 100e. This is putting profit before compassion and is unprofessional in Every way. Its a Total disgrace to see a family sobbing and still dont know if poppy is dead or alive. Im a Staff nurse and thank god that Our Medical profession Are not allowed to put profit before health . Disgrace and shame on you Care vet Group.

Great people and very accommodating. We left our cats a few times in the morning before going to work and picked them up in the evening no bother, no charge, kitties very happy. That's very handy when you need to get them neutered, since there's no operation at weekends in any vet. We even got a handy nail cutting job free of charge that i've never been able to reproduce that good myself. Price wise they're quite good and are willing to give a bit of discount if you have more than 1 pet.

They charged us of course, handsomely for their precious time (still, not a smile between the two of them). We had many questions about the puppy but we left with no answers feeling as if this is one of those places that operates on “one appointment per one issue only” basis. Please note we paid full fee for the visit, another fee for an eye test plus medicine so it is not as if anyone was doing us a favor of any sort. This is the closest Vet clinic around but we prefer now to drive across the town to the VET that actually does his job for the right reasons. (I'm giving two stars because the eye drops worked).

Not my go to vets for everything. One of the vets talks to my cat like they are a child, freaks us out. Rosemary is lovely on reception. Some of the nurses are not the friendliest. Always left waiting a long time even with an appointment. Not my fav vets have to be honest. Its just handy.

Outstanding team. Expert care. Staff are calm, gentle, kind, compassionate and caring. Technologically advanced. Hugely knowledgeable. By far the best pet care in the Dublin area.

Everyone at Cara are most courteous from the minute you walk through the door..what a warm welcome and the care and love shown to our dogs over the past 20+ years has been superb. Unfortunately we lost two dogs during that time and the compassion shown by the attending vet and nurse was lovely...and Fred and Rosemary also were so sympathetic. Thank you to all

We've been going to Cara for over 6 years with our bunny Biscuit. A lot of places treat anything that's not a cat or dog like an afterthought but Cara have always been exceptional. We had a tough time last year, it was very touch and go but Cara were with us every step of the way and kept us informed. Luckily she came through and is back to loving life! Every time we bring her in she gets 5 star treatment and I always feel confident leaving her in the hands of Jenny, Syd, Tracey, Kirsten, etc. The biggest plus for me is that you can tell they actually all care which is worth its weight in gold. Keep up the good work!

I think Cara have let themselves down badly they let a two year old and a five year old Little boys go to bed tonight crying their eyes out not knowing if their puppy poppy was dead or alive. Instead of being compassionate as their mission statement states they Are their vet witheld all information regarding the puppy unless he was given 100e. This is putting profit before compassion and is unprofessional in Every way. Its a Total disgrace to see a family sobbing and still dont know if poppy is dead or alive. Im a Staff nurse and thank god that Our Medical profession Are not allowed to put profit before health . Disgrace and shame on you Care vet Group.

Syd, Tracey, Rosie and all the nurses at Cara care are beyond amazing, they really care about your pets and do everything they can to ensure both your pet and you are happy and reassured. Whenever our cats go in for surgery ( it happens more they you would think... ) they always keep us updated throughout the day meaning I stop worrying :) We lived in town for a while and used to drive past numerous other vets with a screeching cat in the car just to get to Cara as they are so good.

I would like to thank Sid Nagel; and all his woulderful and caring staff for helping my dog Miss Shelby with her cruciate repair to her rear right stiffle; on 21st October 2014. She is back to herself walking and running as normal. Her operation was a Fantastic success.I would highly recommend Cara Vets to you. Once you go there with your pet you will never want to take your pet or pets anywhere else again. 5 star treatment.

Great people and very accommodating. We left our cats a few times in the morning before going to work and picked them up in the evening no bother, no charge, kitties very happy. That's very handy when you need to get them neutered, since there's no operation at weekends in any vet. We even got a handy nail cutting job free of charge that i've never been able to reproduce that good myself. Price wise they're quite good and are willing to give a bit of discount if you have more than 1 pet.
