    Save your money. This place is a total rip off. The first time I brought my dog here for his shots, and I specifically told the vet tech that my dog didn't need a rabies shot as the last one he got was for 3 years. So they gave him 1 anyhow. I called them afterwards and was credited for the shot, the next time I took him in. On this particular visit he only needed his anal glands emptied. However according to this vet he an infection and what should of cost 25. Ended up costing over 150. And my dog was prescribed medication that was unnecessary. The next visit was certainly his last, this vet charged me over 1300. To clean my 32 lb dogs teeth. In the Bay Area the same cleaning is 800. And that's not the worst part, when I went to pick him up after his cleaning I was told he had a little poop on his rear. Well they said a little I'm thinking a little. As we drove home my dog was crying and crying and when he got out of the car, I was in disbelief with all the poop he had all over his butt. And his skin was all red. It was obvious this vet allowed my poor pup to sit in poop all day. I was mad as hell when I saw it. and picked up the phone and called them. I spoke to the vet herself as she tried to do her best and down play it. Here I had just spent over 1300. To get his teeth cleaned and here they sent him home looking like a damned stray. So I had to then give him a bath and my poor pup continued to cry for 3 more hours. If thats the kind of treatment you're looking for, for your pet then this is the place for you and your stray. Oh I almost forgot, after my last review, on Clearlake Veterinary Clinic, they had the nerve to write me a letter telling me they didn't want my business. Can you believe that, charge me ridiculous prices doing shifty work and you don't want my business. You should be out of business, this is Clearlake CA. The poorest town in the poorest County in California. And you have the nerve to charge people here more then they do in the Bay Area. You thiefs should be shut down. So if you are considering taking your pet here, perhaps you should reconsider after all I over paid them, and they still treated my dog horrible. Try doc Geri, she's much better then Dr. Lambert.

    Thank you for taking care of Oswald.

    See all

I have been using VIP Petcare for a while now and most of the time, the employees were friendly and competent. This particular VIP Petcare from Windsor, CA was questionable. Perhaps I caught them on a wrong day but Dr. G. and his two assistants were so business-like they acted like they didn't like animals. First of all, Dr. G. wanted my dog to jump on the examining table but when my dog was reluctant because she was scared and would not do so, I had to carry and lift her on the table and she is not a small dog. Most vets I know would simply have taken the blood test on the floor. When Dr. G. failed twice to obtain blood from my pup's front leg, he decided to try on one of the hind legs and at which point I was asked to soothe my dog because of the assistant not knowing how to soothe an animal. Even the groomers I take my pup to are much more caring and soothing than his assistants. After I purchased a years supply of Sentinel, I asked for a written prescription. One of the male assistants who helped with my dog chimed in from across the room asking, "well, why would you need a prescription when you have to have your pet tested every year"? Too much of idiot to not come up and speak to me face-to-face. I didn't want to argue with the half-wit as I wanted to get out of there. His statement was bullsh*t because I was told by another veterinarian that it's not necessary to have your pet tested every year as long as the medication is given continually and consistently. These people simply want to monopolize on selling their products and services. Indifference toward animals, a veterinarian with a superior demeanor, employees devoid of a sense of humor, and one unprofessional employee with a crappy attitude = 1 out of 5 stars.

    We adopted two cats from this rescue, and we were treated with courtesy and professionalism…read more Blythe is incredibly dedicated to the animals she cares for while finding them decent homes. She appears to be the real deal. When our cats were old enough to be spayed/neutered, the staff provided transportation for the surgery to and from the vetinerian. There was no cost to us for the surgey Some of the animals Blythe takes in are at the end of the road- injured, disabled, recovering from trauma or illness. Most folks don't have the patience or time to save an animal in dire straits. It's admirable, to say the least. These Karens complaining about smelling pee or getting feelings hurt by staff are just being petty, trying to discredit these folks doing good work. Find something more productive to do. Blythe and crew are doing a tremendous job.

    Found my best friend here! Very caring people that save pets lives. The owner goes out of her way…read moreto make sure these pets are taken care of. To anyone complaining or reading complain to here about smell or presentation, this is not a puppy farm or puppy mill this is a place in which animals are brought to be helped and saved. I read someone complaining about the smell, of course neglected dogs and cats who are being saved are going to have a smell. Here is a perfect example. I was speaking with Blythe and she tells me she's gonna have to call me back. I contact her the next day and find out that someone had randomly left five dogs somewhere while moving. She stopped everything she was doing to prioritize, saving those dogs so of course when she went to get them, it was not like she was picking them up from the groomers, but the exact opposite and yes they smelled obviously it's not her fault the dogs were left in that state, she did everything she could to get them healthy get their shots up to date and to make sure to find suitable homes. When I first read the negative review, I was skeptical and i was being very critical. Don't believe everything you read here keep in mind. There is a bunch of people trying to sell puppies vs save them.
