We got our sweet kitty Chloe spayed here and the staff was amazing. They provided us with a cone and treated our sweet girl so great. The staff had great communication with us and explained everything to my partner and I so well. 10/10 so thankful for this place!

My kitten was sick for 3 days and I couldn't get any vet in Waterbury where I live. My daughter made a phone call and spoke with someone about me having to bring my kitten to a good veterinarian and a really nice woman called her back and said I could bring her in and not worry about any type of fee. Due to the fact that I didn't have the money to pay on that day! I was very surprised and totally appreciated what thIey did for me and my Mia ( Kitty ) I reccomend them for anyone who wants a great Veterinarian to bring their animal to.

A super place to bring your pet. The staff is very friendly & responsible, the Doctors are great with their patients. Our family comes all the way from East Haven for the care our 3 dogs deserve and it is so worth it!

My dogs got in a fight and one of them ended up with a puncture wound on her head above her left eye. Despite me being attentive and cleaning it immediately, it soon became infected with an abscess. After calling every vet within a 20 miles radius, they were willing to take her at a time that didnt conflict with my work schedule that same day. The Doctor quickly assessed my poor dog, cleaned her wound and gave her the proper antibiotics; in and out in less that 30 mins. I highly recommend this organization for anything your pets may need. For a lot of us, our pets are our children and Id
