HOUSE VETS FOR HOUSE PETS

They're really good at taking care of the price. My daughter took her cat there, she had just moved from another area, her cat was old. The Vet told her that she wouldn't charge her that much because she knew maybe she had certain things wrong with her and some things shouldn't be done. She's very honest, I've been going to her for a number of years. This is the type of vet you need. She explains everything, they also have dog boarding there and something else there. I forgot because I don't ever need it. I've been going to Dr. Cat for a long time.

We liked them. They did a good job. It was $29 a day.

I would use them in the future.

The first time we went we took the dog and we thought it would be about $200 to get his shots all caught up and it ended up being over $400 which was a surprise. They are pretty expensive. They are very nice and very good. We take our two dog and cat there. They have an extra fee where all the dogs shots for their life would be paid for. The $10 is for the vet tech time, nothing else. That is handy, pretty good. I don't feel that they were very upfront about costs and I did not like that. They should have been clearer with us about the costs.

They've wonderful; they do everything there. They don't keep them crated and let them socialize. What impresses me, is they know my name, they will send pictures of how your animal is doing and it's obvious they truly care about the animals there. They're an A+ provider to work with.

We are getting ready to use them again. The groomer that does our dog is Nicky and I would highly recommend her. She is very good with the animals.

First of all, these people are wonderfully sympathetic, professional, and excellent at handling dogs in a way that makes the visit as pleasant as possible. They have great customer service and make you and your dog feel welcome. However, if you feed a raw diet and/or follow a minimal vaccination protocol, expect to have to explain why every time you visit, sometimes multiple times during a visit. The staff and vets are nice and knowledgeable but follow a more conventional veterinary approach, which probably meets most of their clients' needs perfectly. I like that they take client education seriously, but it's been very frustrating to be questioned on it each visit. For the most part I've been happy with them, if a little frustrated, until recently. Before my first visit with my new puppy, I called ahead and asked if they would vaccinate for *only* distemper and parvo. I was assured by the front desk staff that they could do this. I then confirmed with both the tech who did my intake and the veterinarian that I wanted to vaccinate only for distemper and parvo. I did not check the vaccine bottle ahead of time, which I should have, because instead of a distemper/parvo vaccine, they gave him a 5-way combination vaccination instead (yes, distemper and parvo are included, but so are three other vaccines). I realized the mistake when I was looking at my records before his follow-up appointment, and when I asked the tech at that appointment, she told me that they do not give vaccines exclusively for distemper and parvo, and was unaware that they were on the market. She did politely ask why I only wanted to vaccinate for those two diseases. I opted to forgo the vaccinations, and the tech was apologetic, suggesting that I order the vaccine myself (an option I proposed, since she didn't think they could obtain the one I wanted) and bring it to a later appointment for them to administer. No charge for that day's visit. So, to sum up, they're great people and really good vets, but I will be looking for a vet who really understands raw feeding and minimal vaccine protocols, and who offers titers at reasonable prices instead of the exorbitant ones their lab currently charges. If I can't find a vet that meets those criteria, I will continue seeing them, but will be much more careful in my communication with them.

Our dog was sick and HV4HP were very compassionate and accommodating. After waiting about 10 minutes in the exam room, I was seen by the tech and then the vet. After an exam, it was determined that there might be a liver mass and several options for treatment (including blood work, xray sonogram, etc) were offered. They agreed to just do a single xray because cost was a factor. They helped me with different options for treatment, the best of which was euthanasia. They were understanding and supportive.

We love them. The price seems very reasonable compared to others we've been to especially considering the attentiveness of the vet and her knowledge. It is a phenomenal place. They are great; they are absolutely phenomenal. Their punctuality is very good.

,A warm inviting office, people go beyond being nice, the really care about your pet and about you, if it's a tough visit were you need to put a pet down. It's a first class operation with first class people. Kamara is one of the most caring vets I have ever used, she has been gentle and loving all our pets. When the end comes her compassion and caring is not just for the pet but to you the owner

The service is excellent all around. We are very happy with them.

They came into the house with their equipment, and the Dr. examined Tiger. After an exam, it was confirmed that Tiger was in cardiac failure. Tiger had lived a long full life, and it was time to help her be at rest. They made sure I was informed and comfortable with everything that was going on. They were helping me to help my dear friend. As I held Tiger, the Dr. administered a sedative, and Tiger fell asleep purring in my arms. Once she was very much asleep, the second shot was administered, and she very gently was at peace. The Dr. worked very gently and quickly to make sure that this experience was a gentle and caring for everyone. I could not have asked for any better assistance. This has been hard for me to report, but I wanted to share my experience for others who may be facing a similar situation.
