Stephanie M.

I love this place, We had an emergency with our Golden Retriever, and Dr. Brown assessed his symptoms very quickly and was able to operate and save our baby Ziggy’s life. Everyone from the front desk to the techs and veterinarians is knowledgeable and friendly. We recently moved here, and finding a vet for our fur babies is stressful. I believe I made the right decision entrusting them with their care! Thank you.

Julia M.

We’ve boarded our dogs here for several years, and they’ve always cared for them. We just got back from a trip, and when we returned, our dogs were happy, playful, and clean from their baths. The staff has always been amiable, and the cost to the board is reasonable. Thank all of you for taking good care of our fur babies.

Tracy G.

We have been coming here for 24 years and counting. From caring for the kittens and puppies to being there when it is the end for some of our fur babies, their knowledge, caring, and understanding of what it is to love animals shines through. I love the text and e-mail reminders of visits, and I cannot recommend them enough.

Brenda C.

This is a wonderful Animal hospital. All of the staff is friendly, helpful and efficient. Love these ladies and the treatment my fur babies receive. Couldn’t ask for better. A big shout out to Dr. Smith for her kindness, direct manner in explaining things, and understanding.
