Tina Howerton is the worst so-called vet on the planet, please don't take your pets to her or…read moreHowerton Animal Hospital!!! She is the most despicable, morally reprehensible person, that should NOT be working with animals, let alone call themself a veteranarian. My dog became distressed while traveling and couldn't breathe well. I called because they advertise a hospital with emergency services and I had to beg them to please help my dog. They told us when we arrived they would be closing in 40min. They still made us wait while my dog was literally gasping for air. Dr Tina Howerton was rude and condescending, said that my dog Panda could not stay, even though she was clearly struggling to breathe. We still had to wait for her to come back in the room for her to give Panda oxygen. She only kept her on oxygen for 10min, then took her off and said she had a meeting and we're going to have to try to get her to another hospital over an hour away! My Panda died on the way and I had to drive the rest of the way to Michigan with her lifeless body in my arms. She knew my dog wouldn't make it and still made us leave and acted like we inconvenienced her. This could've been prevented had she cared enough to do the right thing and try to save the life of her patient, instead of creating excuses like meetings and staffing. Tina Howerton hides behind her title of doctor for profit of their online store and so-called hospital, with little regard for the patient. Embarrassment to the veterinary profession, contemptible human being.

The text said that they didn't have a worker who could make it to the Northside anymore and that I needed to find other arrangements. Funny that my location wasn't a problem for 2 years. Anyway, I was told this on a Sunday when I relied on their services in 2 days. I was able to scramble and luckily found a trustworthy family member to take over. So I ask them to please drop my house keys off. *Frankly, I had no desire to use them anymore because they became unreliable*. I'm then told my keys were mailed to my house the day before. WHY WOULD YOU MAIL HOUSE KEYS TO THE HOUSE THEY UNLOCK?! I asked if they were mailed certified and hoped they were so I would need to be home to receive them. It's been 7 hours since I asked and no reply yet. Basic common sense, don't mail house keys to the fricking house they unlock!

So the first person I talked to never even showed up for their consultation. Then I was assigned another one, Kat. At first she was very nice and I was very comfortable for her to care for my animals. I left notes around the house for her with toys and treats that were still in toy box when I got home. And the treats were never given out. She was also suppose to bring in the mail but instead it was left in the mail box and front porch. The only thing she did was scoop the boxes and fed the cats. I had bottled water literally right next to their fountain that only 1/2 gallon was used when we ere gone for 10 days? Then I tried to text Kat and nothing and then texted and called again nothing. I was in Florida and wasn't even sure anyone was taking care of them at this point. The worse part was when I called and spoke to Amanada.SHE HAD NO CUSTOMER SERVICE WHAT SO EVER!!! Never have I spoke to someone so rude. I wanted to know why their toys weren't put out or treats not given or the fact that there was bottled water for my cats that was never used and 2 of my Boys have problems with crystals in their urine so they can't have tap water. Thus the bottled water that was to be used. The litter boxes were just scooped and no new was put in top and there were 2 full unopened containers of litter right next to the boxes. So do yourself a favor and find someone else to care for your furry family members while you are gone out of town and not this horrible company.
