He had a horrible ear mite problem and had a nasty sinus infection because of it. I had been treating his ears with ear mite medication from online, but it just kept coming back. When I took him in, I wasn't so sure that I wouldn't have to have him put down - that's how bad it was. The vet couldn't not have been nicer. He really liked her right off the bat, which was a relief in itself. She took a sample from his ear, checked it in their lab and told me it was no big deal. I was sent home with all the medications that he would need. Within 3 days my old boy was back to himself. At 19! Thank you so much again Sierra Vet!

She had stopped eating, was lethargic, and her gums were pale. She was diagnosed with IMHA (immune-mediated hemolytic anemia), a condition where the immune system attacks the body's own red blood cells, and she needed a blood transfusion right away. They got her one quickly, and one of the staff members was even kind enough to bring in their own dog as the donor. That showed me how invested they were in Widget's well-being and in saving her, and it made me feel like I could truly trust them with her care. The transfusion stabilized Widget and saved her life, and the team treated her IMHA effectively from there. During her recovery, Widget and I visited Dr. Gorgon once a week to check her lab work and make sure she wasn't backsliding. I could tell from the way Widget interacted with Dr. Gorgon that she trusted her, which really impressed me because Widget is a nervous dog. Widget has since made a remarkable recovery and is back to her old life of adventures. A few other things worth knowing: * The staff is very responsive whenever you call or have a question. * The facilities are clean and modern. * They do in-house bloodwork so you get results fast. * They have a pharmacy and can fill prescriptions on site. * They accepted ScratchPay and CareCredit at the time of Widget's emergency (worth confirming if you plan to use either). When your pet is sick, the last thing you want to worry about is whether you can afford their care. If you're in the South Lake Tahoe area, I can't recommend Carson Valley Veterinary Hospital enough. We have wonderful vets up here, but they simply aren't as well equipped for emergencies like Widget's. After the care she received, I'd gladly drive her down the mountain once a week. Thank you to everyone at Carson Valley Veterinary Hospital. We're so grateful.

I am extremely disappointed and heartbroken over our experience here. We brought our cat, Bandit,…read morein because he was very sick, weak, losing weight, and clearly not himself. I was already extremely emotional and scared, and instead of feeling like we had a team trying to help us, I felt like the first priority was how much money we could pay. Before even running tests to determine what was wrong with him, we were being asked about the cost. I understand that veterinary care costs money and that businesses have to charge for their services, but when someone is sitting there crying and desperately trying to help their pet, there should be compassion and some effort to explain the options clearly not make them feel like they are being forced into an impossible financial decision. We ultimately had to make the heartbreaking decision to put Bandit to sleep. I will always wonder whether something could have been done for him if we had been given a real opportunity to find out what was wrong and discuss treatment options before being pushed toward the cost of everything. We were charged around $500 for the euthanasia and cremation. I understand cremation is an additional service, but being charged that much after feeling like there wasn't much effort made to actually help save him has left me feeling devastated and taken advantage of. The most painful part is that I didn't feel like Bandit was being treated as a life that mattered. I felt like I was being treated as a customer and a dollar amount during one of the worst moments of my life. I held Bandit's hand while he received his final shot. He was a cat we found and rescued and became part of our family. We loved him, and we wanted to help him. I just wish I had felt that the people caring for him wanted the same thing. I hope this experience is taken seriously and that other families in a similar situation are given more compassion, transparency about costs, and genuine options before being put in the position we were in.

He is an incredible service dog, with discipline and skills beyond what we could've hoped and a migraine alert that is pretty reliable. Kendall worked with me and Watson for about a week at the very beginning, to hand him off to me and to help me to make us a perfect team. He's wonderful at public access and thanks to Kendall I have felt comfortable working him from the very start. Her approach focused not only on dogs but on dog-owner or dog-handler teams, which proves effective and helps dogs and people grow and learn together. Watson got me graduating college in four years, which would've been impossible without him and Kendall's help. We've gone back for moments to re-up the training and both Kendall and Chandler were hugely helpful in helping me figure out what I need to do and how to keep my dog in tip top shape. Kendall is always there to ask any questions that come up, perfect at balancing the needs of training the animal and helping handlers. I watched the Custom K9 team work with other dogs while I was visiting with Watson, and saw incredible patience and attention to the very specific needs and affinities of dogs and their people. I couldn't recommend them higher.

But it wasn't always like this. Rodeo used to be a runner. If he wasn't on a leash, he thought sprinting away being chased was the funniest game on earth. Now? He's a perfect angel off-leash. Sometimes I catch him giving me this mischievous little look, like he wants to take off, but then he stops himself and stays right by my side. That change didn't happen by accident. It's all thanks to Kendall and Chandler. Let's be real... they trained me even more than they trained Rodeo. Their patience, knowledge, and dedication completely transformed how I communicate with my dog. They're not just great at what they do... they're the dream team. If you want a dog you can truly enjoy life with, 10/10 recommend Kendall and Chandler every single time.
