Very weird experience. Sunday morning my guinea pig passed away. Got online and saw that they…read moreopened at 8am. No answer on the phone for about an hour so decided to drive up there. Called again on the way and a very nice man named Mitchell answered and met us there. He said that she would be cremated the next day and we would get a call to pick up probably in the afternoon. It seemed like he really cared and understood what it was like to lose an animal. We asked what the office hours were and he said it's a family business and he's just up the road 10 minutes away and they will call and arrange a pickup time once everything is done. He accidentally overcharged us but even pulled cash out of his own pocket to make up for it. The next day I get a text from an unknown number with my name spelled wrong saying that my pet was finished yesterday and is ready to be picked up. I said great what time do you close today? The person who I now know is the owner texted me back and said well I'm leaving now. I texted back okay can I pick her up tomorrow? ....No response. Waited 35 minutes and I called the business. The owner Leia answered and she said she had left for the day. I said okay can I pick up in the morning? She said she had doctors appointments in the morning and wouldn't be available until after 12 and they close at 2. (In the middle of our work day). I told her that it's kind of been a weird experience with the business hours and the communication and being overcharged. I'm new to the area and now I'm kinda nervous. She said that the website was wrong and those weren't the right hours. (How would I know that?) She said I can be there today at 4:30. I said perfect my husband will be by. If things would have stopped there I wouldn't have left a review or been that upset. Instead 20 minutes later she calls me back. I thought she was changing the pick up time or to apologize. Nope she called to tell me she didn't like my tone and that I was ungrateful for all she had done for me. Not once on either call did she ever tell me that she was sorry for my loss ect. She said "Jesus Christ what do you people want from me?" I said all I want is to be able to pick up my ashes and I've been flexible with the time. I told her it was confusing to get a text to pick them up after she had already left for the day. She said "well that's how I always do it." She was very cold and rude. She then told me that legally she didn't even have to give me the ashes and she could hold them for several more business days. I don't even understand why she would threaten that. That's when I started to panic and wonder if I would even get my baby back. All I asked was when I could pick up and what the business hours were. I can't believe this is someone that owns a business working with bereaved people. I have four other guinea pigs and a dog and I'm sure I will be needing more services in the future so was hoping to find a good business to have a relationship with. Even though Mitchell was so sweet after reading other reviews and seeing that others have had similar experiences I don't feel comfortable being back. She should probably leave the customer service to her employees because threatening to hold the remains is unbelievable. I don't even understand why it escalated to that. My husband got there to pick up and the owner wasn't even there. Her employee was confused and said he had been there all day and she wasn't even there. I will say that I appreciated the foot prints, hair cutting, and the urn that was included. Again Mitchell was great but the owner was extremely over the top and rude. All of that was so unnecessary at a time where I'm already sad and going through losing a pet.

We did an at home euthanasia, gave old Ellie her last big meal, then she she just quietly went to sleep after a painless injection. I snuggled her in her favorite blanket, on her favorite spot on the couch. She just went to sleep with me holding her. Snoring the whole way, total peace. Ellie had about the best life a dog could have, and I'm proud to say that we took her from the cradle to the grave, and we did it all in our own home, peacefully, with our own hands. Don't get me wrong, it sucks. But I felt good about the way we did it. So much better than leaving them on a steel table in a vet office. Dug her grave out back, Sara was kind enough to carry her limp body down the stairs for me after it was all over. I was a little emotional. After I gathered myself, I put her in her resting spot in the back yard. I'm proud we did it this way. Thanks to you all- Daniel

A Difficult Experience During a Painful Time…read more Losing a pet is incredibly hard, and when we faced the sudden decline of our beloved four-legged family member a year ago, we were emotionally vulnerable. Our regular vet recommended NVS when our senior dog suddenly couldn't move and was in obvious distress. We share this backstory to highlight our state of mind during our visit. After the initial exam, we were told our dog's condition could be terminal cancer or something else entirely, requiring surgery and tests for a definitive diagnosis. When we pressed for a prognosis, we received vague answers: days or weeks if it was terminal cancer, possibly years if it was something else. Given her advanced age, we questioned if putting her through surgery was truly in her best interest, and even asked about euthanasia, but received little guidance. The most jarring moment came when the surgeon, called in specially, told us, "I can give you five minutes to decide on the surgery. Then I leave" This comment, more than anything, shifted our focus from our pet's well-being to the surgeon's impatience. It left a lasting negative impression during an already agonizing decision-making process. Despite the uncertainty, and given less than ten minutes total to decide, we opted for surgery. The outcome was the worst-case scenario: terminal cancer. She might have weeks, maybe a few months. Ironically, the same surgeon who showed little empathy earlier offered the most poignant advice: "Be as present with her as you can." This, too, has stayed with us. During this stressful time, the discussion of costs arose. Over the phone, we were quoted upwards of $7,000, with an itemized breakdown including the initial exam, surgeon's consult, and surgical costs. We painstakingly confirmed the grand total multiple times, even writing it down for our records, as we were not at our best. We were told complications might make this go higher, but we would be called beforehand. At the end ended up around 10 thousand plus. There was no call. However, upon picking up our dog post-op, the bill was significantly higher. We were told we had "misheard" or "misunderstood," which we firmly disagreed with. They claimed the calls were recorded and they would listen back, leading us to believe the discrepancy would be resolved. We paid the inflated amount to take our dog home, but despite numerous follow-up calls, we never received a response or resolution regarding the overcharge. Our precious and loyal furbaby passed away just three weeks after the surgery. Now, with some distance, we can reflect on our experience. While we cannot blame NVS for her terminal condition, the overall lack of empathy and care shown towards both our pet and us during such a vulnerable time, coupled with the billing issue and subsequent unresponsiveness, lack oh empathy makes it impossible for us to recommend their services. One more thing the people at the front desk are just rude and cold with no c We still not hear from anyone to do a follow up on Torry and this means they don't care and just to hear their name make me sick. At the end of the day this place could and should be more understanding, emphatetic of the hard time when we deal with the health of our family members but for them is only money signs and like my grandmother used to say " actions speak Lauder then words? in this case no word nor actions.
