Testimonials

Read What Our Clients Say

  • "I have been taking my animals (dog and cat) here for the past few years and am very impressed. My cat has diabetes and so has needed a little more intensive care than my dog, but every time they are so good with her even though she is extremely timid. My dog has been getting groomed here for the past 2 years or so and is finally no longer scared of the groomer. Billie, the groomer, is so sweet with my dog and is very patient. He even gets a cute kerchief after grooming. They were able to do a medicated bath for him most recently since he has been so itchy from the heat."

  • "Great service, friendly staff, and the place look great! Remodeled for our pets and us! We found our vet! Thank you!"

  • "I visited Friendly Animal Hospital this evening and brought in my two Boston Terriers for their first visit and I was super impressed. The facility is extremely clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. I met with Dr. M and she was very thorough and you can tell she loves and job and cares for the animals she treats. Their prices were very reasonable and I will visit their clinic again for my future vet needs."
