About Jarden Vets

A Practice with a Personal Touch

At Jarden Vets, we do things a little differently. We’re proud to be the only independent veterinary practice in Olney, offering a full range of veterinary services under one roof. From friendly check-ups to life-saving operations. We’re not a part of a group. We’re local, we’re personal, and we’re built on a genuine love for animals.

Building relationships is at the core of Jarden Vets. Relationships with you and your animal companions, the close knit team that will provide their care and relationships with other organisations within Olney, building that community feel.

Steve’s Story

from Nurse to Founder

Our founder, Steve Murphy, is a qualified and experienced Veterinary Nurse with a long-standing passion for animal welfare.

His dream? A welcoming, community-focused vet practice that puts care, connection, and calm at the heart of every appointment. After many years of working in large referral hospitals both in the UK and overseas he felt it was time to create a local, independent practice in his hometown with compassion, empathy and warmth at its core.

In 2024, that dream took shape when Steve developed a winning business plan and secured funding from the bank to build Jarden Vets – a purpose-built practice right here in Olney, in the former Nourish building just off Weston Road.

Drawing on positive initiatives he has witnessed throughout his career and complementing these with his own fresh ideas for companion animal care, he is looking forward to welcoming you to Jarden Vets.
