I had called many different places on 4/28/26, but it was after hours for most places, so I had to wait until the next morning. After calling a bunch of different places and hearing outrageous prices, I was able to find All Pets Animal Hospital, and I'm really glad that I did. The person I spoke with was very kind and understanding, and the price for cremation was under $300. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a caring and understanding smile, and she had mentioned that she remembered we spoke on the phone earlier that morning. She treated us with compassion and patience. My Mom had carried her cat in with her blankets, and the woman behind the desk (unfortunately, I can't remember her name because this was a tough day for all of us) gently received my Mom's cat as well as the blankets. My Mom had asked if the blankets could go with her cat, and the kind woman said she would ask and try to make sure that the blankets go with her for cremation. We received all information very clearly, and the transaction was as painless as possible in that type of situation. We will be receiving my Mom's cat back in a velvet bag, and we were assured that this would be a private cremation; meaning she will only be cremated by herself and not with other animals. Overall, this is definitely somewhere that I would bring my animals. This is a place that makes you feel comfortable and cared about.

They do a great job of explaining every procedure they do and are very reasonably priced. I took my pet there to be neutered and was offered superior care, including pain medication and antibiotics as needed. This facility even works with veterinary students and closely supervises very minor procedures that they do , which is entirely legal and even encouraged by the veterinary colleges. It is very obvious that the staff truly loves pets and has their best interests at heart. All Pets even sees exotics and has a veterinarian who is very specialized and highly regarded in that respect. What else can I say?

This is a great place to board the pets while you're gone. Rest assured that they are in a clean…read moreand maintained environment. No frills; just a quiet farm where, if you'd like, you can have the dogs run around. The animals are verified for health before being allowed to board, so no need to worry about your loved ones getting sick while you're gone. The location is a little out of the way; you have to go down Sand Hill Trail, a gravel road, for a couple miles. But it's well worth the trip. Pick-up and drop-off during weekdays is before 7AM and 5-7 PM, which can be tough, but on the upside they are open Sundays 12-6PM (closed Saturday). The rates are great too, $8 per day (call to confirm); SO much better than a certain location on 580th that charged me $800 for a two weeks to board a dog and cat! Becky is a veterinarian, and her children are always there too. Wonderful people!

The facility didn't notify us when they put our dog on precautionary status for trying to jump the outdoor fence, nor did the business follow their own protocol to stay with our dog on a leash when outside after his first attempt to jump the fence. In addition, the staff didn't administer our dog's anxiety drugs as instructed. Finally, once our dog died in their care after jumping the poorly designed outdoor enclosure and after being left by himself, they did NOTHING to fix the structural design issue to keep other dogs safe. Our dog was one of the greatest things in our life and the Pet Resort treated him like a piece of replaceable property. Our experience after the incident was also disappointing and proved to us the owner is profit driven and not in business for the safety of your pet.
