Best places: Animal hospitals in Sacramento County

👍👍 Dr. Whitaker is amazing. What really stood out to me was that he got on the floor with our dogs. He takes the time to gain their trust and actually interact with them. He is patient, very friendly, and listens. He is also very knowledgeable and provides exceptional care. The two vet techs we met wer...

👍👍 Absolute best vet ever! I have a dog with super high anxiety and reactivity of all kinds, and vet visits could truly be a nightmare for her (and us). Sacramento Animal Hospital has consistently gone above and beyond to help our dog cope with the visits and procedures she needs. Last time she went,...

👍👍 Excellent office staff and veterinarian doctors. My fur baby was having terrible stomach issues over the weekend. I was able to get him in to see the doctor on a Sunday. Everyone there was very thorough and explained everything they were doing from start to finish to my dog. The cost is totally reas...

👍👍 When the pandemic hit, it became very difficult to get an appointment at the vet I had been going to for over 10 years. In a moment of emergency, my vet declined to help when I felt my pet needed them most, but Arden Animal Hospital made the greatest effort to get us seen and tended to in the best w...

👍👍 The vet's and staff always take such good care of my fur babies. My little Tink was recently diagnosed with a spine disease and needed daily medications on top of laser therapy. Due to Covid restrictions I was not able to go in with her but they treated her as if she was their own providing her with...

👍👍 My dog, Ralphie, has poor eye sight and gets very scared with vets and strangers in general. He was terrified when I brought him in for an exam- my usual ball of fur and love was barking and being aggressive with the staff. Dr. Haycia and Christina were both amazing in working with me to calm him do...

😐 Great vet.....They lose stars due to staff attitude( Front desks staff). As well as the fact that my baby was brought in for his yearly visit; The vet that saw him hurried through the exam and was not thorough at all. To be honest the best vet there is Dr. Dinger.....He is thorough, pleasant and doe...

👍 There is a plus size lady that I think is in her late 30s or early 40s (didn’t catch her name and I don’t care to learn it, it isn’t worth learning) that works the front desk… She needs a vacation or a nap or… new job… or… Something… She is incredibly rude and every single time we have interacted w...

👍👍 We have a great experience. They are friendly and very patient. We love Dr. Hong and Lindsay. She responds to emails fast.

😠 After I payed for booster shots and I took my puppy to the car he was in pain, not in the booster shot's spot (it looks like his ribs hurt maybe vet put too much pressure on it while trying to hold my puppy down). I called them to get more details but lady on the phone hung up immediately I called t...

😠 Went in for a cough (upper respiratory infection) and flea meds. The meds for the infection should have been 2 weeks they only gave me enough for 1 week. Told them I was buying the meds online for fleas, they said ok, well approve it. They denied the request saying I have to have a written prescript...

👍👍 I bring my rabbits here because they are really knowledgeable. They are super friendly and treat my animals so well. 2 of my rabbits ended up having cancer that progressed to far that they needed to be put to sleep. The Vet there was so sympathetic and talked me through it step by step because it wa...

😠 Called to make an appointment for my cat who is very sick, but they couldn't find my account. Admittedly, it's been a few years since I've taken him in, and because of that, they purged us from their system and deemed me a new client, but, they won't accept new clients so they wouldn't help my cat o...

👍👍 if i could give more than 5 starts i would. my fiancé and i had to take our beloved fur baby in to get checked out before scheduling his neutering appointment. the place was so welcoming and had a very comforting, homey feel to it. staff was friendly and professional. the room we ended up in had tre...

👍👍 I've been taking my animals to various VCA's in the greater Sacramento area for YEARS and this is by far the best one. I had a bad experience at the last one I went to where they shamed me and made me feel stupid on multiple different occasions for health check up visits and sick visits, i.e. "How c...

👍👍 They always treat my dog so kindly. I feel very confident they are thorough and caring. They give me a price breakdown and all my options for each visit before they do any tests or treatment. High regard for everyone there.

😠 Yikes. Service has gone downhill majorly and cost has gone up. The renowned staff that made this place incredible all left, and patients weren't notified. The exam rooms were water damaged, filthy and stripped for parts on my visit. When presented with the estimated cost, a bunch of items were tacke...

😠 They only want your money and will be incredibly rude and dismissive to you if your dog is suffering. The doctor's here will actively interfere with the care your dog needs until they get the money that they want and will be condescending to you at the same time. Also the vet techs handle the dogs...

😠 Edit 2/25/22 I did find a wonderful non-corporate veterinarian who’s responsive, kind, more affordable, and efficient. They do still exist! *** I’ve been taking my senior dog here for years. Unfortunately, I have to find a view veterinarian because they never have any appointments available for sem...

😠 My 19 year old cat was very sick so I tried to schedule an appointment, but they didn’t have any spots open. When I first tried to make an appointment, the only thing wrong for my cat was her back legs weren’t working fully. Two months later, her back leg was worse, she couldn’t walk without leaning...
