Doc Nielsen came as a really good recommendation not only from my fellow pet lovers but also from the online community. I know we had to go straight to the best which was Doc Nielsen. We visited Doc Nielsen at his hospital located in Mandaluyong, Vets In Practice, another establishment worthy of a 5-star review of its own. Doc Nielsen found out that there was a minor fracture on my doggie's spine which may need surgery when left untreated. He suggested to take the less invasive approach and give him steroids and plenty of nourishment instead. A few weeks later, my doggie was all better jumping and running like crazy. More than healing our dog, you can really see his genuine love for animals once you see him in action. I still remember how he pet my dog before we left the hospital in such a caring way, he said "hope you get better soon buddy". Thanks Doc Nielsen!

What I love about this clinic is the way the staff interacts with your pet. The most caring staff…read moreyou will ever encounter. They take the time to make your furbaby feel comfortable before going into the exam. They will explain every procedure and every medication that they are performing/giving to your pet, to make sure you have a comprehensive picture of their health. I have gone here for minor things such as shots and infections but I have been pleased with all my visits. The staff even goes out of their way to call you in a few days after your visit to make sure that your pet is happy or doing better. If you love your pet like a child, there is no reason to go any other place, than Animal Care Specialists Clinic. I would highly recommend Animal Care Specialists Clinic for their exceptional quality of animal care and very reasonable prices. Plus, they are part of the Vets in Practice Animal clinics across Metro Manila. So, if there is an emergency, they will help your furbaby get the immediate care he/she needs.

Thia is for the maginhawa branch not the grooming branch in v luna ext. Their loc is very practical…read moreand yes its a one stop shop which makes it really easy. My dog got surgery there jan 20 bec of a growth outside his anus which may be benign or malignant. They even offered me to do castration as well which to me makes sense para isahan nalang yung recovery process but its kinda weird that they are quick to offer a service wherein the oatient is a senior dog akready. Even to people when it comws to surgery its tricky na especially for seniors. They are also quick to add stuff to your bill without doing the correct process of making sure if my dog can handle it. Long story short, my dog pulled thru with 2 surgeries like a champ. He had to be confined of course but they are pushing for anotjer days stay thays plus.3200 when my dog is ok naman na. They even lied to me saying na matamlay daw yung aso ko pero hindi naman. There are a lot of red flags like...the branch is renovated pero mabaho pa rin..somethings really wrong. And this is what made me mad. After surgery may sugat it has to be cleaned 2x a day. When i hot my dog the morning after they cleaned him na so ill do the cleaning in the evening. Which i failed to do bec they used heavy duty masking tape on the wound. Is that even standard practice???? Havent they jeard of 3M medical tape with varied thickness?? I paid more than 20k and they have the nerve to use MASKING TAPE on my dog??? And they keep telling me that my dog has cancer and they are ready to discuss chenotherapy packages with me WITHOUT biopsy results. Will now cobtinue mu dog's recovery with Horseshoe Clinic or Vets in Practice.

Pet House is the one-stop shop for everything that has to do with pets. While mostly catering to…read moredogs and cats, the shop pretty much has everything if you need pet supplies, vet care, and even dog grooming. For their pet supplies, Pet House is pretty much well-stocked with dog and cat goodies such as food, litter, treats, medicine, toys and other supplies. Occasionally though, they also have items for hamsters and aquarium pets. The first time I really paid a visit to Pet House was when my hamster was sick and the resident vet, Mayet, was kind enough to offer some tips and suggest a medicine with free drops - and no vet fee for my little pet. Seeing how genuine of a vet she is, I selected her as my dog's vet, having had this experience with her in the past. Now speaking of their vet services, I must say the service is really good. Vet Mayet and the other vets and their assistants in the branch are very helpful and knowledgeable when it comes to handling pets and diagnosing if there is any problem. Dogs are also given the utmost in service as they often recommend routine check-ups for vaccinations or deworming and flea and tick prevention. While they add a date, what I really like about them is that they make sure the owners know when the schedule is as they text you on the morning of the scheduled appointment. Overall, I can never think of having another vet for my furry pal. While their rates vary and depending on the medicine and what size of dog you have, I have to say that their prices range between affordable to expensive (dog medicine imported from the US can become quite a stretch for the wallet), but if you're talking about your dog's overall health, price shouldn't be a problem.

CARA Welfare Philippines is actually a two-decade old legitimate NGO whose main advocacy is spaying…read moreand neutering pets and street animals. It's just recently that they've opened a full-on low cost veterinary clinic at Mandaluyong from a purely Kapon clinic before back in Singalong, Manila. The usual rate for spaying and neutering your pets in most veterinary clinics would more often than not NOT go below 5000 pesos. But CARA's rate falls a little less than a thousand for cats and a little more than a thousand for dogs. This has encouraged a lot of pet owners in the metro to go ahead with the surgery of their pets, not only because of its healthful benefits but also because of its affordability. The clinic rates aren't bad too. You can get a CBC test for less than a thousand, deworming starting at 150 pesos, vaccination starting at 400 pesos and lots more. They also offer quality boarding services starting at 250 a night. Hospital confinement is also an option here, but on a case to case basis. They don't offer grooming services though, but with CARA's increasingly fast growth in the recent years, maybe they would soon enough. Oh, did I mention that the organization houses a lot of adorable kitties and doggies needing homes? If you're looking for a wonderful bundle of love to add to your family, CARA is always open for adopters. Animal lovers are all welcome to volunteer and help out!

Life can get your really down sometimes. When this happens to me, my girlfriend knows exactly what…read moreto do. She bribes me with food to get me out of the house, and then takes me to Cartimar Pet Center so we can watch puppies with their chubby, furry butts playing with other puppies or just staring back at us, too lazy to move. This furry therapy always works, but almost always ends up with me begging her to get me a chow chow, or that adorably labrador puppy. This is also where we buy accessories and pet food for our little Stormy. We don't tell her we come here to look at other dogs though - she's a very jealous little lady, and it wouldn't do to upset her. Tip for dog-owners: get your doggy a superhero outfit. It's awesome, I promise.

Where do you go when you're so stressed and depressed and lonely and so tightly wound you feel like…read moreyou'll snap any second and you need to do something to relax like right now or you'll start randomly punching people in the face like oh my god what is wrong with you stop breathing oh my god - *inhale* *exhale* Some people go running. Some go and get massages. Others have passionate sex until they pass out. Idiots do yoga. My lobster and I? We go look at puppies! And where better to see puppies than the famed Cartimar Pet Center, the Divisoria of the animal kingdom where you can get yourself a furry life partner for less than the price of your average microwave. Even Tinder won't get you that. Even if you're not currently looking for the one, or if you've already found your furry pal, Cartimar Pet Center is still a must-visit for any animal lover. Aside from the obvious pros of seeing cute puppies frolicking around in their cages, waiting for someone to sing "How much is that doggy in the window?", you can also get amazing deals on pet food, accessories, and anything else you need for little Fido. They don't have lasagna though. Garfield will be disappointed. I know I was.

The Shepherd Animal Clinic, a clinic for our beloved pets does not much with its clinicname…read more All our pets was checked up and vaccinated by this clinic but for reason or another, we have experienced a very annoying incidents twice. Today we visited that clinic for the scheduled vaccine and deworming of our dog, at 10am according to the staff, the vet took their early lunch. So we waited until 1:30pm and ask again the staff. They said that the vet is resting and still not calling any pet patients. We have waited for more than 3hrs to be called by the vet, but still to not avail. That vet clinic did not matter the importance of time of the pet owners. The power tripping attitude of those vets in that clinic reflects their unprofessional attitudes.

Calling out to dog lovers out there! Whether you're a new…read moredog owner or if you already have a staple dog shop somewhere else, I recommend trying out Dogs and the City. Here's why: Apart from other dog spas, Dogs and the City have very reasonable prices for grooming and other dog services. They also have check ups with their resident veterinarian, great collection of dog accessories, cages, shampoos, conditioners, toys, and whatnot! The staff there, especially the ones who bathe the cute little and big dogs, are very kind. They are patient and really do a great job in trimming dogs' hair and nails. They also inform you via text message once your dog has already been groomed, so that you won't have to stay for too long in the shop or come back every now and then to check. When you claim your dog back and you don't like something, just tell the groomers and they'll patiently address your needs!

I have nine cats. Nine cats and a somewhat hypochondriac of a grandfather when it comes to them…read more All one of the cats has to do to is either spend an entire day asleep or look a little lazy and that might warrant a vet trip if we don't talk him out of it or if said cat isn't jumping around after 24 hours. Thankfully, UP Vet is more than accomodating. Most people may be reluctant to bring their pets here or dismiss the staff because some of veterinarians on duty are students but believe you me, these guys know what they're doing. Every case is treated like an individual one and they do the necessary tests before they come to a diagnosis. Blood tests, stool samples, whatever's needed to get a better understanding of what's ailing your furry friend. We've had our cats brought in for a minor ear mite problem to a cold. They do their tests, give us a diagnosis and recommendations and medicine and never once have they steered us wrong. We've never spent over 1000php in one visit, despite the doctor's fee (150php consultation fee) or the tests done. The staff is approachable and you can tell they really care for the animals they're asked to look at. If it isn't anything too serious, they also provide deworming services, vaccinations and spaying/neutering. I'd trust these guys with any pets I have over any other independent vet.

For Animal House- Makati…read more They don't even deserve 1 star. I left them a chat asking for an update regarding our pug who has been admitted. I received a response that my inquiries were already forwarded to the nurse station. After a few hours, haven't heard anything from them so I decided to call. They just dropped my call. Chatted them to say thank you and no need to update me. They didn't bother to provide any update and sarcastically "heart reacted" my chat. Ang bastos.

*Note: This is a 3.5 star review…read more Finding a reliable and trustworthy vet clinic for your furbabies is difficult nowadays. You'll find a number of vets within Makati. However, most of them are not 24 hours and close pretty early. The time I went here, it was because Carlo's cats needed to have a check-up because they were visibly uncomfy and we didn't know what to do. :( They have well-skilled doctors and staff. They are patient in explaining the situation and treatment for your furbaby. You can also see they are really concerned with the well-being of your furbaby (which is a quality I highly appreciate in a veterinarian). With Carlo's cats, our doctor found that it was because of something they ate and also that they were not drinking water. So, they were dehydrated. The diagnosis was a big relief for the both of us! Apart from being a clinic/hospital, they also do grooming and boarding. Yes, they have a "Pet Hotel." Though, I think the lodging is a bit expensive for the accommodation your furbaby will get. Honestly, Animal House is more expensive than the other clinics I have gone to. But, they do provide good "pet" service and care. That is hard to find in Makati.
