The practice has been servicing the community for the past 30 years.
"We are a solid bunch here at KVC and your pet's care is our priority," manager Donna Simms said.
"We pride ourselves on honest and affordable treatment for your pets, and as a result we are dedicated to providing high quality, practical and cost effective veterinary care along with friendly, compassionate service."
Donna has been with the practice for the past year.
In all, eight staff work at Katherine Vet Care, including veterinarians, veterinarian nurses and Donna.
"We are good at what we do and we support the community when we can," Donna said.
When your pet needs care, it's important to seek professional advice so you can make an educated and informed decision on behalf of your pet.
The clinic caters for all animals and is one of the best equipped in the Northern Territory.
"Katherine is a great place to live, plenty of new opportunities and the people of Katherine are a pleasure to live around," Donna said.
Katherine Vet Care is an important part of the community, taking part in a number of events and projects.
"We work with Katherine Town Council on their Doggy Day Event, sponsoring the event and setting up a photobooth for people to take photos with their pets," Donna said.
"We also support the Top End Rehoming Group to help promote animals up for adoption through adoption day events or meet and greets with animals.
"The team works closely with the Katherine Horse and Pony Club by hosting the Katherine Vet Care Centre Novelty Gymkhana events, an equestrian day event comprising races and other competitions on horseback for youth."
Katherine Vet Care has also supported the Katherine Show over the years with their animal events.
Last year the practice donated prizes for the annual dog jumping and agility competition.
"We also sponsor local Katherine Junior Rugby League," Donna said.
