Reviews
My dog Lilo is very nervous and can be reactive and the staff was very accommodating and made her feel safe and comfortable. I liked that we didn't need to cross paths with other dogs and the room was all ready for her with a pb Kong she never got to the point of being scared
I've been bringing my 2 cats and dog here for preventative care for about 2 years. All of the staff is wonderful. One of my cats is extremely fearful of going to the vet but everyone knows how to handle her in a way that's safe for everyone and comfortable for her- when she's been sedated for labwork the LVTs have done a wonderful job monitoring her until she's ready to go home. Today was our first time seeing Dr. Matthews and Han Solo absolutely loved her and all of the treats!
