Takurua Vets is an independent companion animal veterinary clinic in Upper Riccarton, Christchurch. We provide thoughtful, practical care for dogs and cats, including routine health care, urgent care, after-hours support, dentistry, diagnostics, imaging, surgery, and inpatient care.

From 3 August 2026, we will begin closing at 10pm as we develop the next stage of our twilight urgent care and after-hours service. Over time, this service is expected to grow toward fuller overnight care and eventually 24-hour veterinary care.

Our approach is calm, considered, and patient-focused, with a growing clinic-wide commitment to fear‑free handling, pain‑conscious care, clear communication, and good clinical judgement.
