The staff of vet technicians along with Dr Mike were absolutely wonderful with my 16 year old cat Riot. When it came time to make one of the hardest decisions a pet owner has to make they were all extremely supportive. Can not thank them enough it meant alot to me!

Been through 3 other vet clinics. This was the best vet appointment I ever had. I have an incredibly nervous/fearful shih tzu and he had all his shots today with zero issues. He was surprisingly good friends with the vet and assistant by the end of the appt. Great job Sarah and Dr Kaitlyn. Thank you.

We are new to Janesville. I made an appointment to take my cat in to have his nails cut because he refuses to allow us to do it and needs a mild sedative. I choose this office based on reviews. I wasnt told any information regarding wearing masks when I made the appointment. Our appointment was scheduled for 7:45 AM. We arrived on time and the door was locked. The lights were off and there was a sign in the door that advised to call upon arrival. A lady came and opened the door. She advised us that only one person was allowed in and that person must wear a mask. My husband went to the car and

😡 Use to love this vet...then they became obsessed with drugging dogs. So I started doing shots myself, now getting bs over heartguard because my dog "missed" a visit. Of course he missed it, did the shots myself because I'm not drugging my dog to appease some vet who doesn't know how to approach or deal with dogs.

I absolutely love them ! Have been bringing my old girl there and today was the day we had to say goodbye. They were wonderful to us. They were so kind and caring. Gave me as much time as I needed. They are also relatively inexpensive. GREAT place and team !!
