Killarney Veterinary Clinic is a small-animal practice (corporate group ownership isn’t stated in the information available to us).

Ark Veterinary Hospital is a companion-animal clinic and hospital offering medical, surgical and dental care for dogs, cats and rabbits, with orthopaedic work (including bone fracture repair) listed on its website. The site also states it conducts one-to-one consultations with a “generous time allocation,” and that it can see emergencies during a stated window (12pm–5pm). In recent reviews, owners describe getting same-day help for urgent issues (e.g., a dog’s ear problem) and note specific handling approaches for stressed cats—one owner says their cat’s vaccination was done without sedation using gabapentin, with a much better recovery than at previous practices. A minority of reviewers report problems with front-desk manner and empathy during difficult situations, including an owner who felt there was “no sympathy” when their dog died.
