About Animal Emergency Australia

Tanawha, QLD, Australia
501-1000 employees

We believe in making the world a better place for animals, one life at a time. Growing from a small company looking after the sickest and most critically ill pets, we now provide emergency vet care and general practice vet care across Queensland, Western Australia, and Tasmania.

A passion to help remains at the heart of our business, and as the crisis over the future of the veterinary profession deepens, we see an opportunity to build a different kind of company – a movement from vets for vets – one that is purpose-driven and has the wellbeing of veterinary professionals at its heart.
