What recent reviews say

Fox Hollow keeps pets calm under stress, with vets who listen and explain each step. Families drive 40-45 minutes for care that feels personal, not corporate, and staff manage nervous or reactive animals without forcing treatments. One serious complaint about delayed response to critical lab results raised questions about thoroughness during urgent diagnostics.

The practice handles routine wellness, vaccines, dentistry, and end-of-life care with equal attention. Dr. Cara, Dr. Ross, Dr. Tony, and others earned trust through patience and genuine connection. Most reviewers prize the "small town" feel and fair pricing; one owner stayed loyal after relocating an hour away.

Foothills Animal Hospital

4.8(421)✓ Verified

Foothills has earned loyal multi-decade patients through vets who take time to listen and explain care options without pressure. Most staff interactions are warm and competent, though recent reviews flag friction with one front desk employee-a sharp contrast to the hospital's core culture of genuine concern for animals and owners. The practice offers a full range of services from routine wellness and dentistry to surgery and alternative therapies like acupuncture and laser work. Pricing is described as fair to inexpensive for the quality. Dr. Brittany Miller, Dr. Jen, and Dr. Miller receive specific praise for attentiveness and genuine care; the transition after Dr. Rodger's departure has left one long-time customer noticeably disappointed.

Kipling Veterinary Hospital and Wellness Center

4.4(134)✓ Verified

Reviewers praise Dr. O'Connell and Dr. MacKenzie for patience, thorough care, and kindness across three years of visits. Dental work, kidney disease counseling, and emergency intake impress. However, pricing frustrates consistently: surprise charges at checkout, line-item markups, and cost disclosures that shift during visits. Front desk staff can be dismissive, and a recent case raised concerns about delayed antibiotic treatment for infection. Loyal patients value the vets and techs; newcomers may encounter friction with phone staff and billing practices.
