What Our Clients Say

Dr. Miller took so much time to try and comfort my very scared pet, meeting them on the floor and bending over backwards in so many ways. Thank you so much for your excellent care!
Annette Lott
☆☆☆☆☆
They were so good to Sandy who’s life gently ended surrounded by the family she loved. The doctor explained everything to us and the four kids present. It was solemn. We have since bee gifted with two big dogs who will see The Vets when needed. We are very grateful for their care.
MaryAnn Clark

Melissa C.
☆☆☆☆☆
The service that is provided is far above anything. The veterinarian and assistant are absolutely wonderful and kind. As a parent of multiple fur babies, having the veterinarian come into our home made each of them so calm and relaxed. The prices were extremely fair, and their communication was above par. I cannot wait to have them out again.

They took exceptional care of my dog. They were very nice and kind. Very sweet to my dog. Very knowledgeable, helpful and prepared. Smooth experience, I like that they were able to come to my house and treat my dog at a comfortable environment for him. I highly recommend and would see them again in the event of any vet need 🙂

I cannot say enough good things about this service! We have 2 cats and getting them to the vet is stressful starting with the carrier. This service is professional, excellent communicators, prompt, courteous and so sweet to our cats. They made the entire process so easy for us. Highly recommend
Lisa M.
☆☆☆☆☆
LOVE The Vets! They are a mobile vet service which means they come to your house. There is zero stress for my dog and myself, and it's super convenient. The vet is thorough and takes her time to talk through the evaluation and available options for treatment. I won't go back to our old vet, The Vets has been an amazing experience for both my dog and myself.
John Lemonds
☆☆☆☆☆
We have used The Vets twice, and on both occasions they were very competent and friendly. They maintained a calm and caring professionalism, even when our adopted feral cat screamed and tried to kill them! I couldn't be more happy and impressed. Thank you, The Vets!
Gaby Perez
☆☆☆☆☆
I have a senior dog with mobility issues and having a vet come to our house is a great option. Easy scheduling, great communication and care. I highly recommend them.
Annete B.
☆☆☆☆☆
Wonderful care for an option when in need. Personal and very friendly. So patient and great with my sick kitty. My Leroy is now all well and back to his trooping self. Thank you so much!

How can you not love that the vets come to my house and sit on my floor at my cats level to check him? BB walked right up to them and loved up to them immediately. Dr. Savageau (besides having a cool name) was gentle, informative. She also heard and accommodated what I wanted in a relationship with a vet. When I had a follow up call, she responded with great information and kindness. I highly recommend The Vets.

☆☆☆☆☆
Absolutely painless appointment and house call for a Saturday. Vet was knowledgeable and patient, as was his Vet Tech. I will use them again for sure. $ wise they were no more expensive than going to my regular Vet, who is closed on Saturday's.
