I couldn't be happier with critter care or with Dr. Plummer. After having a very negative experience with a vet in the area, I brought my cat here when he was very ill. While he ultimately wasn't going to have a good outcome, Dr. Plummer and her staff went above and beyond to make the process as easy as possible for us and were so kind and understanding. This is definitely the vet I'll be taking other pets to and recommending to everyone I know.

Price is very reasonable for neutering $350-390 depending on weight. I got my dog neutered and it was a simple drop off at around 7-8 and pick up in the evening. The Dr is very kind and gives a personal call when the surgery is over with comment to call if any further question. Highly recommend! My new go to vet!

I couldnt wait to give Dr.s Carmen & Plummer & staff the praise they deserve! From the moment I handed my dog over to them for emergency surgery for Pyometra I knew my dog Nyla was in the best hands and care possible. The entire staff is friendly, professional, and caring they kept me up to date throughout her stay and recovery. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone seeking veterinary care for their pets!
