LOVING HANDS PET CARE was founded in 2005 by Karen Scherer after she lost her "little man", Mingus, an 11 year old Pug. Pet sitting allowed for her to continue her love and commitment to the care of animals. Eventually Karen brought Scott Kromminga in as a partner to take over the in home pet visits, while she continued with boarding of senior and special needs dogs in her home.
Recently, Karen announced her retirement, and exciting move out of the country to continue her dedication to animals, this time sloths!.

Brought my dog in an emergency (he had been shot by some kid for the heck of it) they turned me away saying they couldn't help me. I then brought my dog to firgrove veterinary and they were able to slow his bleeding down and prep him for emergency surgery which was done at Sumner vet and I'm happy to say he is fine and happy.

Was told when we brought out dog in for his puppy visit (he was 85lbs at the time) to make an appointment on the first to get him neutered. Called today and was told no dogs over 60 lbs. My question was why was i told to make an appointment on the first by the Dr. Only to be denied by the very rude receptionist? We will be taking our 3 dogs elsewhere for care. Love Dr Russell, but will no longer tolerate the rudness of the office. She is constantly rude over the phone like you're wasting her time when you call.

I loved the Dr. her style was easy and caring, the receptionist not so much. They Have very limited hours, none conducive to working people. When I asked what do working people do, she laughed and said "don't know". Her suggestion was I have someone else bring my cat in, not a realistic answer. Needless to say, this forces me to a different vet, it's a shame.

Absolutely love dr Russell, The front desk receptionist is terrible. She isn't a vet but acts like one. They have horrible hours only meant for people who don't work and it the website has not been updated for hours or COVID compliance. They are not open 24hrs as stated. They do not send any reminders of any kind for future vaccinations or future appointments. So many wrongs and only one very awesome doctor is not enough. Been with dr Russell when she was still down in graham strip mall. Won't go back till things seriously change.

Yet another amazing visit! Absolutely adore Dr. Tammy and the lady at the front desk. (sorry I forgot her name) Sweet, down to earth, proficient and professional. They truly love their animals and have such a way with them. I was in and out within 30 minutes, no waiting, and all my questions answered. So much different than people doctor visits! Thank you guys
