Lisabeth K.

Some extremely unwelcome guests showed up at our house. You know how it is. You do your best to best to kick them out, and make life as miserable as possible, but they refused to leave. Our poor dogs spent every waking hour stuck with these squatters and something had to be done. We're newish to Ventura, and loved our vet whom we'd been with for twenty years. We were sort of taking our time finding a great new vet, thankfully not NEEDING one - at least not before the squatters showed up. I called one vet here in town that had five stars, but they didn't provide Bravecto and were pretty pricey. The receptionist on the sly actually referred us to 101 Pet Vet saying she'd heard wonderful things about them. She was right. I was warmly greeted via phone by Logan, and only had to wait a few days to get my miserable scratchy itchy guys in to see Dr. Spence. When we arrived, we were again very warmly greeted and shown into a room right away so they could now shake with terror in private. You know how it is, they smell the fear in the parking lot. I kept telling them, "Listen, the entire facility is immaculate, everyone is lovely, the tech's are gentle and kind. And we're going to kick those hideous fleas to the curb. You've got nothing to shake about." Dr. Spence is the vet you've been missing - and the one you'll stick with forever. He was incredibly thorough and caring when examining our guys, both rescues (whom he calls "kids") and gave intelligent, thoughtful answers to my many questions about one of our dogs - the troublemaker. He also has a wicked sense of humor which I personally adore. The Bravecto worked within two hours to quell the incessant biting and scratching. Dr. Spence had suggested an injection for our one guy who seemed paticularly allergic to the bites which we agreed to. Both dogs were once again happy and calm, and bitching about other things like how boring their kibble is and why they can't stay out later on a school night. 101 Pet Vet even called the following day to check on how my kids/Troublemakers were doing. Listen, my old vet's office never did that. I've already referred three friends. Maybe they'll give me some treats...!

Dr. Spence is amazing! I love how he doesn't push me into doing unnecessary tests and you can tell he truly cares about the animals easy to talk to easy to understand he doesn't use crazy doctor terms and Doctor Yaacov is also amazing she's very sweet with my animals. You can really tell that they both truly care about the animals

Dr. Spence and staff responded quickly to our after hours email regarding our dog Pablo. They actually monitor their website 'contact' portal! Pablo was in intense pain, trembling and wincing when we touched him. I emailed 101 Pet Vet while we waited at VSMG for nearly 5 hours, never seeing a vet. Dr. Spence spoke with us about the situation, examined Pablo and came back to tell us what he felt Pablo was suffering with. Dr. Spence prescribed three medications for pain & inflammation. Pablo is home resting peacefully. It's such a relief. Thank you Dr. Pence and staff for your service and compassion.

This is hands down the greatest veterinary practice in Ventura County. From the amazing office staff to the tech and especially Dr. Spence, this is the best place for your pets. The level of care and professionalism is remarkable, and the office is also just really nice. Highly recommend.

Felt so confident that my cat was well taken care of. They are so organized and friendly. Dr. Spence explained everything so clearly. I liked how they called the next day to check up on him. I would highly recommend this place.

We've been coming to 101 Pet Vet for a few months now. My dog has allergies and needs constant treat. Staff and doctors are great always helpful, friendly and always calls us the next day to see how he's doing. Huge improvement from cottage animal hospital in Oxnard or Adobe Animal Hospital. Those places are a nightmare so glad to have found 101 pet vet. Hercules ears are so much better and they always have time for him to get his monthly injection.

Dr. Spence and his team exceed 5 stars in caring and customer service! Dr. Spence takes time to discuss treatment & options in treating your pet as if it was his own. Thank you again for taking such great care of Skippy!

After another vet couldn't get us in for over a month and half we were recommended to 101 Pet Vet. I called and explained our situation and they added us to their cancellation list. To our surprise we received a call the next morning. From the initial phone call you can tell this Vet really cares for all the animals in their clinic. Since it was our first visit Dr. Spence took the time to gather health history and talk to us about all aspects of health in our cat. He answered all questions and was so patient and kind with our baby. The vet can be a traumatic experience but I know our girl was in the best care. Thank you to the entire 101 Pet Vet staff. We will absolutely be bringing our other girl in aswell Thank you all again.

Once again, Dr Pasek and her uniquely qualified assistant, Rhiannon, helped me walk an elderly pet…read moreto the other side. Actually what they did was give me three of our best years together by accurately diagnosing his physical state for the first time in the 12 years that I'd owned him. It was a miracle. I thought I was calling her three years ago to put him down, and what happened instead was that we found out why he was sick. And they tenderly helped me care for him in his final time on this planet. They are compassionate, knowledgeable, and genuinely seem to care. It was important for me that he died at home so that the other two pets could know that he was gone to assist in their grieving. Dr.Pasek and Ray patiently and intuitively held space for me to find the right time. I highly recommend this team of professionals, not only professionals, but friends.

Dr. Pasek comes to your home for veterinary care, eliminating the difficulty and stress of schelping senior dogs to the animal clinic. At almost 16 years old, Scout's health was declining as she started to have a lot of medical issues that are common for older dogs. It became nearly impossible to transport her to our Vet's office. Scout weighed in at 60 pounds, she could barely see or hear and was so stressed when in the car. Thank God for Dr. Pasek who could examine and treat Scout in the comfort of our home. Over the past few months, Dr. Pasek advised us on how to assess Scout's Quality of Life and when to determine the 'right' time to let her go. She and her staff were kind, caring, professional and patient making this difficult time more manageable. When the time came to end our darling Scout's life, Dr. Pasek and her staff provided a beautiful ending to a beautiful life. In our serene backyard where Scout frolicked her whole life, she was put to 'sleep' surrounded with love and then taken away for Aquamation. Afterwards, Dr. Pasek presented us with a book she wrote about grieving for your pet. It was well-written, heart-felt and offered great constructive advice on coping with the loss of a pet. The next day, a single rose arrived on our doorstep in memory of Scout's passing from Dr. Pasek. We highly recommend her services. Dr. Pasek is a top-notch vet and a really nice person. It might be a little pricey, but worth it as she helped us get through this traumatic fact of life...or rather death. Arlene and Dennis H. Ventura, CA

My vet recommended my dog get his teeth professionally cleaned, so I brought my good boy here…read more First of all, the location is pretty easy to miss. It's not located right on Main Street, but right before you hit Main Street, depending on what direction you're coming from. The parking lot is small, but I could find parking easily. Appointments are scheduled weeks out; therefore, arrive on time to avoid losing your spot! A family came late with their two dogs, and Smiling Canines tried to squeeze them between other dogs' appointment times, but it was a hassle for both the family and business. After I filled out and signed some paperwork, the staff immediately took my little dog in to have his teeth cleaned. The whole appointment lasted maybe 30 minutes. They also have a small store pet you can look in while you wait for your dog; otherwise, you can stay in your car or sit in a chair outside. The lady who greeted me was kind, professional, and efficient. The prices are around $185 - $250, depending on what type of cleaning your dog needs. Unfortunately, I paid $250 because I had not kept on my dog's teeth, and he had a lot of tartar buildup. So he will need to come back in another six months for another cleaning, and my good boy deserves the best. Thank you, Smiling Canines, for vastly improving my dog's teeth - and breath!

Such an Awesome option for getting your dog's teeth cleaned! Without anesthesia! Love that they do…read morethis at various locations (we went to the vet location in Thousand Oaks) They did a great job and it literally took all but 30 minutes. Our pup was not traumatized at all. And he was his usual happy self afterwards. Cost was $250 - major inflation! The last time we had his teeth cleaned by them a couple years ago, (went to a couple others in between) it was only $150 I think?. Our pup has terrible plaque issues so we did have him get the anesthesia cleaning, at his vet in 2024 and he needed 9 teeth pulled. :o\ They too (our vet) recommend Smiling Canines! I highly recommend!!

This is not my first review of our beloved Dr G, and I just recommended her to 6 more people again just these past 2 weeks. I always say to people I give her card to: "you will discover she is an Earth Angel - if she moved to a different town, I'd take my pup there... When you find a great vet, they are Gold! She's not only compassionate, present and knowledgeable, but also she does not oversell." Besides all the regular check ups, Dr G. has performed 2 substantial surgeries on my pup in the last 8 years, and has been extremely kind, providing valuable reassuring step-by-step updates throughout, especially aware that I had lost my beloved first dog, (with a different vet), when he did not make it through the anesthesia... In the 8 years Dr G. has been our one and only vet; everyone I have sent to Dr G. has fallen in love with her, and has thanked me for the referral. I trusted Dr G and her small compassionate team with the euthanasia of my precious second dog, Handsome. She is truly an Angel on Earth. At her Chatsworth location, I love that she's created a lovingly cozy "home environment" for the euthanasia experience. That it so needed during that deeply emotional time, and more veterinary offices ought to follow her example. I found her many years ago when I was dissatisfied with a busy veterinary front desk in Sherman Oaks, after they had made errors in my first dog's chart. Unfortunately he passed, and I learned that finding the RIGHT professional truly makes ALL the difference. So yes, I drive from Sherman Oaks. Gratefully so :) I am thankful that my cherished pups are her patients. Her ethics, her care, her kindness, her knowledge, her integrity - she's our number 1!!!

Dr. Gonzalez was kind, patient, and thorough, taking the time to explain each step of the euthanasia process. She ensured our dog's maximum comfort throughout, even creating a makeshift pillow so he could rest peacefully. We were heartbroken, but her understanding and gentle approach gave us comfort while making the process completely painless and stress-free for our giant furbaby. She was available the same day and brought in a caring team afterward to respectfully and compassionately assist with our 132-pound dog. The thoughtfulness, professionalism, and empathy shown by Gemcore made an unbearable moment a little more bearable. We are deeply grateful and highly recommend them to anyone seeking a veterinary team that truly cares.

I decided to do so to share my experience and allow an opportunity for growth. I wanted to be proactive so I am thankful this wasn't an emergency. My pup has extreme allergy issues. I recently moved to So Cal from No Cal and started a new vet relationship. I explained to Dr. C what the pups experience had been and what I needed. I thought that went well. Scheduled a follow up visit to check in and review protocol as this is when his allergies take a bad turn. I specifically requested Dr c again and was told to come on a Tuesday. I arrived 10 mind ahead of appt to give them time to check me in and to be respectful of their time. First - Dr C wasn't even scheduled to work that day. It appears they may have double booked as there was another couple waiting with their pup. We both were taken to a room and the other couple were seen right away. I waited over half an hour and nothing. When I stepped out to ask if the vet tech could at least vaccinate the pup that seemed to throw everyone for a loop. Please no it is a large and appears to be quiet office. Many people seem to have not a lot going on and it appeared as if I may be disturbing then rather that being a paying customer with a request. When after standing around and nothing seemed to be happening other than just wait around. I thought this wouldn't work and left and got what seemed not of pure intent with a have a good day. If you are a parent you know what I mean when I say tone wasn't genuine. Now I am not angry just disappointed at people lack if care and kindness. I chose to drive further looking for a responsive and kind business. For me, this is not it. I was able to start service with a new vet within 2 miles from where I live. My message, be kind but expect the same in return. If not, go somewhere else. That is all we can do.
