Active Pet

My wife Karen and I have been recommended to take our Golden Retriever to see Philippa by our orthopaedic vet to have physiotherapy with her because of a very unusual and rare condition he has which Philippa is very knowledgeable of and will be able to help us. We have spoken to her twice. We were anxious and upset but she completely put our minds at rest by explaining to us calmly and what to do up to my appointment and not to worry and she has been so kind and helpful and superbly knowledgeable about his condition. Philippa took so much time to explain to us what our gorgeous boy has and we have every confidence going to visit her. We would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone who needs to go to Active Pets she also has a lovely receptionist, Hope, who was so kind and helpful also. As We all know when our pets are unwell it is very upsetting but to be able to speak and see someone who is professional, kind and caring is a huge relief. We are 100 per cent confident she will help us and she comes highly recommended from a top orthopaedic surgeon who we have known and trusted for decades.

I love Philippa and all the staff at active Pet almost as much as my dog does, they are friendly, helpful and genuinely caring towards the best needs of my pet. After every visit my dog feels better and more comfortable to move around and the treatment makes a big difference to her overall demeanour.The team at active Pet help make sure my Dogs life is as happy and comfortable as possible.They communicate well with my other vets to make sure both teams are working towards her needs and keeping her healthy as possible.

Great service and the staff are all so caring and supportive. Our 14 year old choc lab Rolo has been able to keep mobile and relatively pain free for many years with acute arthritis, due to the ongoing care and treatment he receives at Active Pet. We cannot express enough our gratitude for all their dedication and genuine interest and support.

An excellent service is offered by Philippa, Michelle and the team. They are very experienced and seek to provide solutions that help your dog deal with arthritis (in our case) and have as full and pain free life as possible.We have been taking our now ten year old Flat Coated Retriever Branston to Active Pet for a couple of years now and he is undoubtedly a healthier and happier dog as a consequence. He has acupuncture, laser and radial shock therapy at each visit and he is well chilled with the experience each time.What I particularly like is how closely they work with our own traditional vets....which provides a joined up approach to treatment.

Astro has been coming to Active Pet to see Phillipa since August 2017. Back in May he had a collision with another dog and damaged his right hind leg various treatments and rest didn't help and he was still lame. After the very thorough initial consultation, Phillipa decided to treat Astro with laser and Acupuncture.We have had weekly sessions and now we are beginning to see some pleasing results. He is no longer lame and he is walking straight.Astro loves coming to see Phillipa and she is always very welcoming. She always tells me that she is at the end of the phone if I have any questions regarding his exercises or any problems.This week I thought that we had got a set back with Astro and I rang Active Pets for some advice. He was immediately booked in for Phillipa to look at, luckily it was a false alarm but it so nice to know that Active Pets are just a phone call away. I look forward to Phillipa's continued support and treatment with Astro.

Mowgli my cat was Philippa’s first ever client and we are still frequent visitors here after he had a very bad road traffic accident a few years ago. Without Philippa’s care and attention Mowgli would not be as active and pain free as he is at the moment and I can not recommend taking your pet to active pet highly enough! I was sceptical at first that complimentary medicine could have such amazing results and these combined with medications keeps Mowgli happy and healthy and I could not ask for anything more and the team at active pet are always on hand when ever I need them!

We come regularly to Active Pet with our two dogs, one sadly after a road traffic accident that resulted in him losing a leg, and later with our other dog who has a back leg issue. We have always had wonderful care and knowledgeable advice from Philippa and her team, her reassurance and kindness in the early days with Archie were wonderful.

We’ve used active pet for both acute rehab as well as long term maintenance.The staff are super friendly and knowledgable and my dog absolutely adores coming for her treatments.To have my dog well cared for by dual skilled and qualified vet/physios is a non negotiable for me as an owner. I want the best for my dogs long term health and I truly believe she get that by being treated at Active Pet.Thank you all

Active Pet have done such a great job at helping my 10 year old Golden Retriever with her arthritis. I have been taking her for laser treatment and in just a few weeks, she has changed from a limping, sleepy, older looking dog to a lively, happy, full of life girl. Great advice and support from Phillipa and the team and a warm welcome whenever we go. Totally recommed getting in touch with them if you have a dog who is slowing down.
