Companion Animal Hospital - Our boy Max.  He is missed and loved

Companion Animal Hospital

I can't rate this place higher!! I was referred here from my busy vet to this place, my dog was…read moreconstipated, he was not passing poop for 2days and he was being sick with an oversized bloated belly! I was freaking out to get him sorted soon as this was an emergency. I am so happy with everything, the friendly staff, nice clean place and I absolutely love Dr. mattison! She is just amazing, super nice and professional, she seriously cares about animals and does a fantastic job. My frenchie is very particular & fussy dog, she handled him very nice and did a fantastic job at finding out what was wrong with him and keeping him calm! Dr mattison went over everything from his treatment, and cost to get him better. I was so worried about my dog, he had Gastric outflow obstruction ... he already had a lot of treatment & he stayed the night at the companion hospital, he had X-rays to determine what and where the obstruction is and gave my dog fluids to correct over dehydration. They advises my dog may need exploratory surgery (Not only was I worried about my dog needing surgery and the risk of his life under surgery, but the financial strain affording the surgery). The next morning when I got to the vet, they was able to unblock him so no surgery needed!!!! A big relief . my dog was looking more happier and lighter...he went there weighing 28lbs with a big bloated belly, and he was back to his healthy 26lbs normal weight after. Before I left she redid xrays to check he was clear and didn't charge me for extra checking him on the xrays!!! This vet is not just about money they genuinely love animals and do a fantastic job! Thank you so much for everything, my dog has never been better! Later, they even called me up to check on how my dog was feeling after he came home. Amazing place!

We've been taking our Chiwinnie here for almost 2 years. We came by 'advice of a friend' and they…read morecouldn't have been more spot on. The DVM's are wonderful, as well as the staff and technicians! Every treatment is discussed beforehand, and so much care is given to our fur baby, as it should be as he is part of our family. This is an exceptional clinic and we'd never take our pup anywhere else!

My Pet's Animal Hospital - Mia and Tina Mia is next on the list for visit. That's going to be interesting!

Very friendly environment. Staff and Drs have been nothing…read morebut professional. I walk in and feel very welcomed, they greet my pet as if their own.

Super disappointed with a recent boarding at My Pets. My Pets Animal Hospital has been our vet for…read moreyears. I've boarded the family Goldendoodle (Max - http://tiktok.com/@mackymaxdoodle) many times without any issue. I recently had to leave town for a family funeral for the weekend. I dropped off Max Friday. I should have known things have gone downhill at My Pets when they had lost his reservation and the pre-paperwork I had completed prior to his arrival. Max apparently did well on Friday however on Saturday evening during a family funeral gathering, I received a long text explaining Max had growled while the handler (Sasha) went to let him out. Without discussion, the handler texted to inform me they had decided to sedate Max. He had already stayed the night prior with no issues. They also informed me of the medication cost and additional expense to administer the medication. They promptly sent a video in which they took a second effort to enter the cold prison like room, walk to his cell, and without being friendly to him and calling his name, they clanked the door latches and yes, he made a purring/growling noise. He appeared very nervous and scared. I asked for Dr Donna to call me as I didn't want him sedated and didn't understand why experts were unable to handle a family dog as they have many times before. I let them know to open the cage and invite him out and he'd be fine. I didn't get a call from Donna. Instead, I received a long text from Donna explaining that she had told the handler to sedate him and that was their policy. I told her I didn't want him sedated and that I would leave the out-of-town family gathering and come get him ASAP. Donna informed me I should get Max behavioral training (super well-trained family dog) and that she would call me to discuss the issue the following week. It would seem that it's My Pets staff that needs the training. They are supposed to know how to handle dogs while boarding. She also informed me that Max had disrupted hers and her staff's weekend. As it got close to pick Max up, I texted and asked how they would get him out of the cage as I didn't want him sedated. I received no reply. The same handler got him out of the cage and brought him to me (somehow without sedating him). Everyone at the front desk was "unsure" if Max was sedated including Sasha. It seemed there was a lack of transparency and trust as in his returned items was a bottle of pills with 4 pills unaccounted for. I informed them that he is a family member and didn't deserve to be drugged because he had a handler unwilling to be friendly to him and quite frankly was probably scared. I will never return Max to My Pets. He deserves to be treated with care and the handler failed to do so by intimidating him while he was in a vulnerable state. When Max first went to My Pets, they would greet him by name and even bring him a Licky mat with cheese whiz. This isn't even close to how he was treated during this boarding stay. Also, Dr. Donna didn't follow up and call to discuss like both her and her staff said would happen. Very disappointed and do not recommend boarding for your fury family member.

We love this clinic!! Dr. Chris and his staff have fixed our weirdo Sphynx cat and his odd ailments…read morea number of times. And when he (our cat) comes in with teeth bared and claws flying, they still at least act excited to see him. And when he's pooped all over his crate, and stunk up the entire room, they clean up his messes with a smile on their faces. I was veterinary technician for over 20 years and realize it's part of the job, but at least they're being kind. I know the cat is a butthead. This clinic is staffed with folks doing a tough, and many times thankless job. They're doing it well and they're honest. They're practicing good medicine, while still being down to Earth. I am so pleased to have found Care Animal Clinic for our cat's care. But don't ask our cat about it; He's a jerk and hates everyone.

After visiting five different veterinary clinics and never feeling fully satisfied, I finally found…read morethe perfect place for my fur baby, Dy'Nero! From the moment we walked into Care Animal Clinic, the entire staff was warm, caring, and genuinely attentive. Dr. Christopher J. Carrier took his time explaining everything clearly and treated Dy'Nero as if he were his own pet. The compassion, patience, and knowledge shown by both Dr. Carrier and his team were beyond impressive. They didn't rush the appointment, answered all my questions, and made sure I understood every step of Dy'Nero care plan. It's rare to find a clinic where you feel your pet is truly loved and cared for -- but this is it! I'm so thankful to have finally found a vet I can trust completely. If you're looking for a place that combines professionalism with genuine heart, Care Animal Clinic is the one. And the price was great especially when he knew his stuff Keith and Ka'ren Care Animal Clinic 2030 Edgewood Dr S, Lakeland, FL 33803 (863) 665-2000
