🐾 Mobile Vet in Roslin, Midlothian

About Mobile Vets

A mobile vet visits your home to treat, vaccinate and check up on your pets - removing the stress of car journeys and waiting rooms for both you and your animal.

Home visits are especially valuable for elderly pets, nervous animals or households with multiple pets that would be difficult to transport to a surgery.

A good local mobile vet builds a relationship with your animals in their own environment, often spotting things that a stressed pet in a clinic might not show.

About Roslin

Roslin is a village south of Loanhead, known worldwide for Rosslyn Chapel - the 15th-century collegiate church whose ornate carvings drew global attention after featuring in The Da Vinci Code.

The chapel predates the fame by five centuries and its Apprentice Pillar and ceiling carvings are genuine masterworks of medieval stone carving.

Roslin Glen, a wooded valley along the North Esk below the village, is a country park with walking trails, a ruined castle and rich wildlife.

The Roslin Institute, part of the University of Edinburgh, is based nearby - it was here that Dolly the Sheep was cloned in 1996.

The village itself is small and quiet, with a pub, a chapel visitor centre and a strong sense of place that belies its size.

About Midlothian

(opens in new tab)

Midlothian is a compact council area immediately south of Edinburgh, stretching from the city bypass to the edge of the Scottish Borders.

It takes in the valleys of the North and South Esk rivers, the northern slopes of the Pentland Hills and a string of former mining communities that have reinvented themselves as commuter towns and growing residential centres.

Dalkeith is the administrative centre, but Bonnyrigg is the most populous settlement - and Penicuik, set against the Pentlands, has the feel of a self-contained town in its own right.

The Borders Railway, reopened in 2015, connects Newtongrange, Gorebridge and Eskbank to Edinburgh Waverley and has driven significant housing growth across the region.

Midlothian is one of the fastest-growing local authority areas in Scotland, attracting families and professionals who want proximity to Edinburgh without the city price tag.
