1 Star I had an…read moreextremely upsetting experience with Omak Animal Hospital and would not recommend them. Last week, my 14-year-old Yorkie was in critical condition. I called around desperately trying to find help and was told by Becky I had to pay $130 upfront just to be seen because it was considered an emergency. After arriving, we waited about 45 minutes while my dog continued to struggle. When we were finally seen, the vet provided a high-cost estimate that only addressed symptoms and did not give us clear guidance on whether this was end-of-life. Then we were told the clinic was closing for lunch and we could return later--but likely wouldn't be seen again for hours. At that point, we left because our dog needed immediate care. We went to Okanogan Veterinary Clinic instead, where they got us in right away and treated us with compassion and honesty. We ultimately had to put our dog down. The situation got worse afterward. A week later, Omak Animal Hospital called demanding payment for labs. When I called to pay the $200 bill, Becky told me it was now $250 because they had "held a spot" for me. She also claimed my initial $130 payment had been reversed (which I did not do), She accused me of stopping my bank from payment, and said I owed $200 plus additional fees of 50$ because they held a spot for us! When I tried to resolve the situation and pay what I owed, Becky transferred me to Cindy, who was immediately rude, talked over me, and threatened collections and small claims court. She also said she didn't trust me to call back and pay, even though I was actively trying to pay during that call. This experience was stressful, unprofessional, and completely lacking compassion--especially during a time when I had just lost my dog. I strongly suggest going somewhere else for care.

Do not take your beloved pet here. The receptionist was…read moreextremely nice, but there was a woman beside the main veterinarian (possibly an intern) whose behaviors were creepy. This woman (bob light brown or blonde, tall, slender ) came into the room I was waiting for a veterinarian, stood and said nothing. I had to ask if she was there to look at my cat. She was extremely ill mannered the entire time. She commanded me to hold my cat, then without any warnings, she inserted a stick into my cat anal. If she told me that's what she was going to do, I would cover my cat's head and legs with a cloth. When I explained to her about the cares received from another veterinarian prior, she acted as if I was lying and said " what? is it really? oh, I have to check that", and ran to back room. When I showed her my cat's woulds, she just stood in the room, and ignored me. I suggest you don't let this woman touch your pet or even come close to you and pet. Her behaviors are disgusting.

I feel incredibly lucky to have found Amy. My two dogs are special and quirky - as in emotional and shy and don't take to strangers easily. Within ten minutes my Ranger was giving her kisses! I was sold. Amy has a very calm presence and that came through to me and obviously to the dogs. After providing her with a lengthy set of instructions for just visiting them mid-day for potty breaks, she didn't freak out or think I was weird. She was more than willing to do whatever I did so that the pups would keep their routine. In addition to sending me either a text or email after every visit, she also left me a "report card" with how the dogs did and reacted to her which was a nice treat. I like the attention to detail and extra information. It was just like I was there! As a bonus to the report card, Amy also left a couple of homemade treats for the dogs AND a dozen eggs from her own chickens! It's just so comforting to know I can trust and rely on someone to handle things in my absence. I didn't worry for one minute which is an amazing gift for me when I'm away from home. I've already schedule another week with her and have her booked for a long weekend with overnight stays - another nice bonus - no kennels! Amy's prices are reasonable, she is very professional and dependable - you can't go wrong!

The kennel was average, no frills, and could have probably used a deep cleaning. My dog was…read morereturned to me alive and unharmed, if not soaked and dirty. The appointment didn't really meet our expectations. Edit: To call me a liar on a public forum is where I draw the line. 1. I called you weeks in advance to tell you that our dog was in season. Your response was "no problem, we have a special kennel fully fenced. We'll keep her in there." When I came to drop our animal off you stated "oh, I forgot." And I only agreed to the crate being used because you said she'd be out of it twice an hour. 2. The water bowl had to have been spilled much earlier than when she "saw me and excitedly knocked it over." The bed, and her were soaked, to a degree that she had to have been kept in a soaked cage for hours. 3. When I came to get her, there was no one around to release her. So I did your job and collected my now filthy animal. 4. The kennel and office are in disgusting condition. You really should stop lying online and get to cleaning. I will never recommend your services to anyone. Have a nice day.

But upon arrival no one was there to greet me, there was no way of getting in touch with anybody and I waited for at least 45 minutes before giving up. Unfortunately, it put a huge damper in the day as the reason I needed boarding was because I made an appointment several months ago and needed to go to it and know my dogs were in a safe place. It ended up being an incredibly stressful day, which would not have happened if the owner had been professional and been there to greet me at the time we determined. I also was unaware on coming that it was a very small place, and the dogs look scared and uncomfortable. It made me really sad, I definitely recommend going somewhere else where you will be treated with respect, and acknowledgment, and where your dogs will be too.

I am writing this review to document my personal experience so other pet owners can make an…read moreinformed decision. My dog, Koa, was boarded at this facility on two occasions: July 3-5 and July 10-14. I cannot determine during which stay he became ill. When I picked him up on July 14, he was noticeably lethargic and not acting like himself. Later that evening, his condition declined rapidly. He became disoriented, was unable to stand to go outside, and his temperature measured 106°F. He was rushed to an emergency veterinary clinic and admitted immediately. Over the next several days, Koa's condition was described as critical. His white blood cell count was dangerously low, he continued to spike high fevers despite continuous fluids and cooling measures, and he required round-the-clock hospitalization. Multiple veterinary teams repeatedly prepared me for the possibility that he might not survive. I was told more than once that his prognosis was very guarded and that we needed to be prepared for the worst. He underwent extensive diagnostic testing, including imaging and a bone marrow biopsy, and ultimately required transfer to Washington State University's Veterinary Teaching Hospital for ICU-level and internal medicine care. He remained hospitalized for nearly a week. The drive to WSU was approximately an hour and a half each way, and I traveled whenever possible just to see him during limited visiting hours, not knowing if each visit might be my last. Despite exhaustive testing, no definitive source of illness was identified. Koa ultimately survived due to aggressive medical intervention, including prolonged steroid therapy and the advanced care provided by the critical care and internal medicine teams at Washington State University. His total medical expenses exceeded $12,000. The owner of the boarding facility was contacted on the morning of July 15 by my boyfriend to inform her of the situation and to ask whether any other dogs had been ill during that timeframe, as this information could have assisted with veterinary diagnostics. Although I am the legal owner of the dog and the individual listed on all veterinary and boarding paperwork, the facility owner never contacted me directly by phone or email. I would have expected direct communication with the registered owner during a medical emergency of this severity. To this day, she has never reached out to me personally. Koa survived, but his recovery was long and difficult. He required months of steroid therapy with significant side effects, including excessive thirst, increased urination, and loss of bladder control--none of which he had experienced previously. Initial attempts to taper him off steroids resulted in serious complications requiring further medical intervention. He ultimately required additional long-term medication and ongoing veterinary monitoring. The emotional distress of nearly losing a family member after trusting a facility to care for him is something I would not wish on anyone. Beyond the medical crisis itself, the lack of direct communication with me as the registered owner was particularly difficult. I am not making claims of legal fault or causation. I am sharing my experience. Pets are family, and facilities entrusted with their care carry a significant responsibility. I strongly encourage anyone considering boarding here to ask detailed questions about illness monitoring, emergency response procedures, and communication expectations. I sincerely hope others take the time to think carefully before entrusting their animals to this boarding facility.

She assured us our cat would have air conditioning in the small outbuilding she used for cats (however it was shut off when we arrived but she promised to make sure it stayed on while they were there) as well as regular visits from the owner and cage cleanings. Looking around the yard, it was covered in dog feces and we both had a funny feeling but we stupidly ignored it. We returned after our trip to find our cat as well as their bedding, soaked in urine with feces all over the floor, the AC completely shut off in the sweltering heat. In additon, food and litter were scattered across the bottom of the kennel (obviously it hadnt been cleaned, likely at all during her stay) and a traumatized cat.
