The front office at Animal Alley was very empathetic and was able to squeeze Finn in for an urgent-care appointment. Wait time was minimal and once he was in the exam room he was attended to without interruption. After treatment, he is once again healthy. All the staff ~ from the receptionists to the techs to the doctors ~ were good listeners and treated Finn with the utmost care.

They were also absolutely wonderful several years ago when my sister had an elderly cat that had to be euthanized, and although my sister… read full review
My fur baby is always treated with kindness, respect & love by every member of the staff at Animal Ally. Dr VanDaele is gentle, thorough, and wise in his care of Sophie and patient with her anxiety.
