Great experience as always grooming my Maltipoo Tank. I definitely can yell the difference in how my dog reacts when we take him to you. He runs inside and is excited to be there instead of having to chase him around the car to get him out of the car. Also, his general attitude when we handle him at home for minor things like teeth brushing or the occassional extra bath (he is no floof matipoo!) Is great. Miss Terry and her crew are doing a great job. Tell them thank you and keep up the great work.

Only in the event of an "EMERGENCY", and only then would I ever take one of my "FOUR LEGGED CHILDREN" to any other Vet. We are grateful that we have such a wonderful, caring VET to rely on! Whenever the opportunity presents itself, we recommend Wolftever. Sometimes we get the response, that they are little high it cost. Our whole hearted response is always, and your point is?! Maybe some people do not want the best possible care for their pets. Our pets, (Four Legged Children) are family, and we want them to have the best care that we can provide!

ALL POSITIVE: Affordable, Compassion, listens, does not do any unnecessary procedures, reliable, and very informative to ALL your fur baby needs They were very friendly interacting with my pomeranian Aries as soon as we walked in. We got in the back room within a minute or 2 from arriving and saw the doctor within 3 mins. They were so kind and patient with Aries.
Very informative and I can't wait to start bringing him there for All his vet needs. Thank you so much for your compassion. Sara was his doctor and she is so AMAZING! ALL the staff was welcoming and so great with my fur baby.

We've been using Wolftever as our go to vet for years and always have a great experience. I find that compared to other local vets their pricing is better. I do like that the boarding is right next to the vets office so I'll have peace of mind when boarding my pets. The groomer does an excellent job however my only critique would be that the pricing for the grooming services are a little steep and I'll likely try other local groomers out.

We needed a new veg after we moved and chose Wolftever after researching different vets in the area. They were very nice and very professional! I feel like they actually care about my pets and their service and not just looking for ways to make money. It's a bonus that it's so close to our house as well! We also take our pooches next door to be groomed and love the service there as well! Highly recommend if you need veterinary care and grooming. They also offer doggy daycare and boarding but we haven't used those services.

We have taken many family pets here throughout the years. So happy we have good doctors nearby for our babies. Also want to give a special shout out to their groomer, terry. She is an absolute angel and took many special requests I had concerning my senior Maltese who is blind and deaf and gets very scared and defensive while grooming. She did exactly what I wanted and was very quick and sweet with him and he did not seem upset. Thank you!

They have wonderful indoor/outdoor rooms available for my big American Bulldog/Mastiff baby! He can be difficult to walk so this is the only place we board! They have experience with large dogs and are so kind to our pets! The cameras are a great way to check in on our babies while we travel! The best in town!

Our dog was bit here during a boarding stay, and we feel the management and staff responded very poorly. We were not called to be notified and given options for her wound care. Instead, we were given the news upon arrival. It also appeared that our dog's blood was left on her head, neck, and chest until we arrived for boarding pick up. When we asked questions about if her wound was cleaned and treated with antibiotics, the staff member responded with, "I don't know, " and did not offer to retrieve that information for us.
We then asked that she be seen by the vet next door and that the blood be rinsed off. They obliged. The vet said we would need to give her antibiotics for the next two weeks, and of course, we had to pay for it. Though we understand bites may happen, we believe it fair to expect communication; timely and proper wound treatment; and for staff to be knowledgeable about what happened to our dog's care.
We also were not returned all our dogs' belongings and had to keep asking the staff member to retrieve items. Even still, we were given the wrong bowls. As scared and frustrated as we were, we cut our losses and left without all of our personal belongings. Otherwise, we had a positive experience with the cleanliness of the facility and the ability to watch our dogs on webcam. The price is fair, but not worth the risk of my dog not being properly cared for.

This really is a good service. We've boarded our dog here several times. They get their own rooms and can have access to their own little space outside. Our dog has it's own bed and we've signed up for frisbee time and walks everyday. The last trip we took we called once we saw that she didn't have her toys in her room and they immediately went and gave them to her (this is because each room has a video camera you can watch you dog on!) That's a pretty cool service and we find ourselves watching quite often when we go on vacation. I recommend this place for sure
