The cheapest vets in the UK for a booster vaccination
Rabbits. Check what each price includes before you compare.
A low price with nothing in the "included" column may mean the vet has not said, not that nothing is included. Open the practice for the detail.
What the price covers, and why it varies
The standard definition: Vaccinations booster (including consultation)
The price depends on the size of your pet. Practices set their own weight bands, so a "medium dog" at one vet may be a "large dog" at another. If your dog is near a boundary, ask which band applies.
Other prices in the same group: First consultation, Repeat consultation, Out-of-hours consultation, Nurse consultation, Nail clipping, Anal gland expression, Microchipping, Animal health certificate, Vaccinations – primary course, Kennel cough vaccination, Pet care plan (monthly). All 36 treatments.
Common questions
How much does booster cost at the vet in the UK?
Typically £79 for rabbits. That is the middle price across 295 UK practices that publish one, so half charge less and half charge more. Independent vets typically charge £70.20 and the big chains £85. The cheapest town with three or more priced vets is Uxbridge, where the typical price is £52.80.
Does the price of booster depend on the size of my pet?
Yes. Most practices price booster by weight. Typical published prices: cats £73.50; dogs (all sizes) £72; rabbits £79; all pets £65; other small pets / exotics £62.09. The standard list uses cats and five dog sizes (small, medium, large, extra large and giant), but each practice sets its own kilogram limits, so ask which band your pet falls in.
How can I pay less for booster?
Compare the vets in your own town first: the gap between the cheapest and dearest is often larger than the gap between towns. If you are near Uxbridge or another of the cheaper towns listed above, it may be worth the drive for a planned procedure. Ask for a written estimate before you agree to anything, which practices must give for treatment over £500.
What does the booster price include?
The standard list defines it as: Consultation/clinical examination by vet surgeon, administration of vaccine by vet surgeon or RVN. Inclusive of all core vaccines. The price includes the consultation. Published prices include VAT and are for a typical case. Complications cost more.
Why do vets publish the price of booster?
Because the competition regulator told them to. It found in 2026 that owners could not compare vet prices and that prices had risen faster than inflation, so every practice now has to publish the same 36 prices, including booster, on its website one click from the home page. The big chains must do it by 23 December 2026 and everyone else by 23 March 2027.
Not veterinary advice. This page compares what practices charge. It does not say whether a treatment or a medicine is right for your animal, and nothing here should be used to start, stop or change any treatment. Only your own vet, who can examine your animal, can advise you. If your animal is unwell, ring a vet. In an emergency, use an out-of-hours vet.
How this is ordered. By price, lowest first, unless you sort it yourself by clicking a heading. Nobody pays to appear here, to appear higher, or to be left out, and no practice has any say in the order. How we collect prices.
About these prices: each figure is as published on the practice's own website on the date shown, VAT included where the practice says so, for the size of pet and the inclusions stated. Practices now have to publish a standard price list and keep it current (the rules), but the price you pay depends on your pet, so confirm with the practice before you book. Spotted a mistake?
