Hear from our dear friend, Dr Jane Goodall, on how we are creating a better world >
Our established and reputable veterinary clinic has been delivering veterinary care to our community since 2015.
Our team of dedicated veterinary professionals are committed to meeting the health care needs of your cherished pets.
Cherished Pets joined the growing community of B Corp certified companies in August 2017. B Corps use the power of business to solve social and environmental problems, and are certified to meet rigorous standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency.
We hold ourselves accountable to this ethos. For us, becoming a B Corp meant solidifying our purpose and becoming a champion for the business for good movement.
The Cherished Pets Model of Care
Since 2015, Cherished Pets Community Vet Clinic has been providing human-animal bond centred veterinary services in the Geelong region. Our innovative social enterprise model prioritises inclusion and accessibility and is propelled by our commitment to fostering social impact.
Our Ocean Grove clinic operates a private GP veterinary service with fees set at the market's median. A percentage of veterinary fees in our private clinic combine with funding from the Cherished Pets Foundation, to support the delivery of social veterinary services. By using our veterinary services, every pet’s visit contributes to community wellbeing.
Our Social Hearted ® Model of Care bridges the gap between animal welfare and human health and wellbeing, delivering accessible and equitable veterinary care to vulnerable and disadvantaged people and their pets.
