Pet Boarding Training near West Hartford

“Just a Rave because I'm so happy. I've had many amazing vets for my cats over the years, and it's always nerve-wracking every time I move to be sure I get the best I can for my dear kitties, though I know just like with people docs, most are good.

Moved again, and Oliver needed his old man physical, and had been vomiting some here and there. Our new vet here, Dr Haining, has been beyond stellar. She took his symptoms seriously, did a great work up, suggested a new diet, and he's acting like a younger self ever since, with no more vomiting and burping! She also did great dentistry for his ongoing dental disease. On top of the thorough care, she and her staff are just lovely and delightful humans. They truly treat my cat like he were their own.“

“Great place my Valkyrie loves to go to daycare. I love the way we are able to see her on camera. The staff is friendly.“

“My dog absolutely loves going to the vet and the staff are always extremely happy to see him.“

“Take it from a childless cat mom…

I’m a Sphynx mom for 33 years loving our second rescue when the pandemic takes the family cat caregiver.
Extensive research for the must haves (cats only, kitty cat cameras), and a few interviews later I clicked with Kim.
She and her staff of cat spoilers may humbly say hotel and grooming for cats only. The name RESORT doesn’t begin to tell the story of what we’ve learned since 2021 when leaving our daughter in their care during our 5+ trips every year.
We view the camera in her suite, extensively, to make sure her cat mate auto feeder works after the hour long ride there, to see what she’s up to, and mostly because we miss her. So many times someone has happily made an extra trip in to charge the battery only we seem to drain so regularly.
Watching the camera we’ve learned extra trips are the specialty. No matter what or when the cats need it, not just drop off and pick up times are they on duty, but ALWAYS! No matter if it’s a tummy ache, a crying stressed kitty who needs extra time and love, medication, frequent feedings, anything, they notice and respond. Did we mention scheduling flexibility for unforeseen situations?
We knew about ‘above and beyond’, but when our little bandit broke her cat mate feeder into 3 pieces, two staff spent half an hour troubleshooting on the phone with us until it was up and running. I honestly thought it couldn’t get any better. Until… we killed the camera battery again right before the night feeding and when Kim saw our email she went in to make sure she actually ate and change the battery at 2AM.
Eternally grateful Kim.
NOBODY does it better!
Look no further cat parents.“

“We’ve been clients here since 2022 when we adopted a ‘super senior’ cat and needed to establish care for her, and have since transferred care to Catzablanca for the other two cats we have. I appreciate that most of their appointments are ‘cat parking’ where you drop them off in the morning and pick up in the afternoon. I believe this gives them more time to do a thorough exam/provide services, and just makes things easier schedule-wise. They also offer traditional timed appointments, which I can understand some people may be more comfortable with based on some other reviews. I have always received a quote leading up to an appointment, even with the few last minute emergency trips that have been needed. They are extremely thorough and will jump through hoops to help find a solution, whether it be changing food, medication administration, or just offering general advice if you have a question. Their in house testing capabilities are great, as that helps get some answers sooner than later. I have never felt pressured to have a service provided that may be recommended. And if it is something that should be in serious consideration, they have always helped establish a care plan. While yes, costs can seem high, but that is unfortunately across the board for a lot of other practices. (Pets can’t tell you what’s wrong with them so it takes a little more to figure out what’s going on ☺️). I have nothing but respect for the staff there. They have been incredible whether it’s boarding while having to travel, all the way to offering additional support when it was time for our super senior to cross the rainbow bridge. They pick up on your pets personality quirks, and take the time to interact with them while under their care, which shows how invested they are in everyone that walks through the door. 10/10.“

“This is a very special place. They took exceptional care for our dog for years until it was her time. When it was, they went above and beyond to give her a calm, loving, patient send off to the other side. I cannot even begin to express on here how wonderful the staff and doctors are at Farmington Animal Hospital. We were never pressured to make expensive decisions, we were always given options, and never felt judged. This is by far the best vet in the greater Hartford Area.“

“The best sitter I’ve ever had! I highly recommend her! I wouldn’t use anyone else!“
