What our clients are saying ...

Caring, compassionate, and professional team!

We are fortunate to have this available for our animal family members during frightening and emotional events. A heartfelt thanks to all of their staff.

~Sherree Craig

Forever grateful!

I had to bring my dog in for a case of bloat as our normal emergency vet was already at capacity. Even tho they were too almost at capacity they got Macie right in and their fast treatment and ability to get her in most likely saved her from needing surgery. Forever grateful for their compassion thanks again everyone!

Calm and Capable

In a time of complete chaos it was the calm, yet caring, demeanor of each and every staff member that allowed me to catch my breath. I wasn’t sure what the outcome would be but I knew we were in good hands.

Although simple words seem inadequate to express my gratitude, I want you to know how much I appreciate each and every one of you. Without you, I don’t think my best bud would have this second “Chance” at life 🙂

~Lauren Pinkham

Thank you!

Took amazing care of my girl Quinn. Thank you so much!! 😺

~Dorothy Campbell

Thank you!

I have been to several emergency vets in several states, and I have to say that you are by far the best. I really appreciate the high quality of care you provide. I just noticed that my dog, who spent the night with you had his nails trimmed.

I CANNOT thank you enough for doing this. I try my best to keep them cut but he always fights me.

You are clearly a practice that cares about the overall wellbeing of every animal you see and it shows!!

Thank you so much for all your help!
