Accountants for Vets
Accountants who understand what makes veterinary practices tick. We help vets across Cardiff and South Wales stay on top of the books, plan for growth, and keep more of what they earn—so you can focus on the animals, not the admin.
Everything under Accountants for Vets
From daily bookkeeping to year-end accounts and tax planning, we cover the full financial picture for veterinary practices—whether you're a sole trader running a mobile clinic or managing a multi-vet surgery.
Bookkeeping and Cashflow Management
Daily transaction recording, expense tracking, and cashflow forecasting tailored to veterinary practice rhythms.
Tax Planning and Returns
Identifying veterinary-specific reliefs, capital allowances on equipment, and ensuring you're not overpaying HMRC.
Payroll for Veterinary Teams
Processing wages, pensions and auto-enrolment for vets, nurses, receptionists and locums—on time, every time.
Practice Valuation and Growth Planning
Financial insights to support expansion, equipment investment, or preparing your practice for sale or succession.
How we support veterinary practices
Running a vet practice means juggling consults, surgeries, client calls and staff rotas. The last thing you need is uncertainty around your accounts, tax deadlines or whether your numbers add up. We work with veterinary practices across Cardiff and South Wales to take that weight off your shoulders, giving you clear visibility of your finances and proactive advice when it matters.
Our approach starts with understanding your practice. We know that veterinary income can be seasonal, that stock management matters, and that capital purchases—from ultrasound machines to surgical tables—need to be planned and claimed correctly. We set up your accounting systems to reflect the way your practice actually works, not a one-size-fits-all template.
We handle the numbers so you can focus on the patients.

What's included
We take care of bookkeeping and transaction coding, so your records are accurate and up to date throughout the year. That means no scramble at year-end, and you always know where you stand. We process payroll for your vets, nurses, receptionists and locums, handling auto-enrolment pensions, PAYE and National Insurance without fuss.
When it comes to tax, we identify the reliefs and allowances that apply to veterinary practices—capital allowances on equipment, business use of your car, and any qualifying R&D or training costs. We prepare your self-assessment returns if you're a sole trader, or your company accounts and corporation tax if you operate through a limited company. And we keep you ahead of VAT obligations, whether you're on the standard or flat rate scheme.
Cashflow is critical in any healthcare business. We help you forecast income and outgoings, flag potential shortfalls early, and advise on timing for large purchases or expansions. If you're thinking about opening a second site, buying into a partnership, or planning your exit, we provide practice valuation and scenario modelling so you can make informed decisions.
Local knowledge, sector focus
We work with practices throughout Cardiff, the Vale of Glamorgan, Rhondda Cynon Taf, and across South Wales. That means we understand the local business landscape, from the cost of commercial property in Cardiff Bay to the nuances of serving rural communities in the valleys. We're also familiar with the regional veterinary networks, referral relationships, and the practical realities of running a practice in this part of the country.
Veterinary accounting is a niche. We've made it ours.
Whether you're a newly qualified vet setting up on your own, an established practice looking to streamline your finances, or a partnership planning for the next five years, we're here to give you clarity, confidence and year-round support. No jargon, no surprises, just solid advice you can act on.
