The staff were really nice and wore masks and were keeping a safe distance. There were two adorable kittens who obviously make everything wonderful. The store is always clean and stocked. We love buying local from Madison cat toy makers (like TacoCat). We really missed MadCat! They do call ahead, pick ups and in-store shopping. Masks are required for customers. The kittens didn't have masks :)

We adopted our sweet Rudie from Shelter From The Storm seven years ago, and they gave us the gift…read moreof some of the most wonderful years we could have ever asked for. From the start, it was clear how much the staff truly cares for every animal that comes through their doors. They made sure Rudie, then called Dana, was healthy, loved, and ready for her forever home. These pics are from the day we drove from Chicago to Madison to bring her home. Over the years, we came to understand what people mean when they say, "who rescued who." Rudie brought more love, laughter, and comfort into our lives than we could ever have imagined. We're deeply grateful for the joy she gave us and for the compassion this shelter shows every single day. We lost Rudie last month, and while our hearts are heavy, we're endlessly thankful for the seven beautiful years we shared. She was family in every sense, and that's because this shelter gave her such a strong start. The love, care, and respect they show every animal make all the difference. Losing her reminds us just how special adoption truly is. Thank you for helping us find our best friend.

They have sold out to Encore Vet Corporation and are no longer local or caring. EVC is from New York. If they treat professionals like they did Dr. Larson, they no longer have my trust.

I know he'd give them quality care as I know how well those dogs are treated. This was an animal hospital so I wasn't entirely sure they did ordinary vet visits until I called. (They do!) The staff is very kind, clearly animal lovers and they also did a thorough check. They contacted my old vet and transferred our dog's records over even though I have my files - they wanted more detail. During the exam the veterinarian was thorough, asked about his history, checked for any problems and explained all vaccines and also gave me a price estimate which was a lot more reasonable than I expected. The doctor was kind and gentle and even though my mellow guy is pretty easy to work with she climbed down by us and made sure to give him some love before the shots. I am very pleased with the beautiful facility and excellent care.

Our dog was a patient at Pineview Animal Hospital for over 12 years. Recently, she experienced a…read moresudden and severe neurological decline and became completely unable to walk. Given her age and a probable brain stem tumor diagnosis, I contacted the hospital specifically requesting to speak directly with her veterinarian to discuss what was happening and to problem-solve next steps, including prognosis and quality-of-life considerations. I was unable to speak with a veterinarian. After multiple calls and detailed explanations to reception staff, the only guidance relayed to me was to take her to the emergency room, with no further discussion, reassessment, or quality-of-life conversation. When I asked why, I was told the practice was "a clinic, not a hospital," which was confusing given the hospital designation and our long-standing relationship. Because I could not have a direct conversation with the veterinarian, we sought a second opinion. Under the new veterinarian's care, our dog's diagnosis and medications were completely reassessed and contradicted, and she has shown significant improvement in a very short period of time. We were very close to making an irreversible end-of-life decision based on indirect communication and limited engagement. For a senior dog in acute crisis and a family seeking guidance, we expected more thoughtful involvement and direct communication. I hope the practice reflects on how situations like this are handled in the future.
