Good prices and friendly service. I've taken my cats here and now my GSD. I recommend them.

Dr. Dirk Butchko is hands down the best veterinarian in the Riverside area. Seamless checkin. Amazing staff. And treated our precious Fiona with such care. I will not take my yorkies anywhere else. A huge thank you to Dirk and his staff. read more

My mom had to take her cat there today. After she already took her to another vet. This vet did so much more for her and found the proper diagnosis. And less cost. I highly recommend this vet. read more

My husband and I brought in our sweet Billy, our cocker spaniel who struggles with allergies and scratches himself raw. This clinic doesn't take appointments, only walk-ins, so it's best to arrive early. We got there first, but keep in mind that arriving early doesn't always mean you'll be seen right away--they can only take a certain number of pets each day. We understood that and waited patiently, because we just want the best for our boy. The manager was incredibly kind and took the time to talk with me about Billy's condition. They gave him a vaccine to help with the itching, and we also discovered he was covered in fleas, which was making things worse. Thankfully, they started him on the flea pill they offer, and wow--he hasn't scratched once since! We are so grateful for the caring staff here. Billy finally has the relief he needed, and this will definitely be his vet moving forward. read more

To Carlos & Victoria Where do I begin? I was recommended to Pro Vet by my family, and I couldn't be more grateful. I came in a month ago for an ultrasound and found out my 2 1/2-year-old French bulldog was pregnant. In June From that moment, the care and attention we received were exceptional. I drove down every day for a week for a reverse P test, and every visit reaffirmed my decision to choose Pro Vet. On July 13, my dog had a C-section, and everything went smoothly. If you are looking for a top-tier vet, this is the place. They specialize in French Bulldogs and English Bulldogs, but honestly, they do it all. A tip for future visitors: get there early, like super early. This is my go-to vet from now on. I live in Long Beach, and the drive is definitely worth it. As someone with no experience with puppies, I found the staff incredibly helpful and patient. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. I want to especially thank Carlos and Victoria you two are amazing! Your love for animals and open hearts made all the difference. Thank you, Pro Vet, for the exceptional care and support! read more

I brought in my female dog for a vaccine. I had both of my dogs with me in a stroller--only she was to receive a vaccine. My other dog is a recent rescue, under six months old, and I brought him along to see how he might do in the clinic environment. He was a little yelpy, which seemed to annoy the front staff. They weren't rude, but they also weren't friendly or welcoming, and we were quickly moved into an exam room. The room was mostly clear but wasn't fully clean. Before the vet tech entered, my dog who was receiving the vaccine found what looked like a syringe cap on the floor. When the vet tech came in, she confirmed which dog was getting vaccinated and then asked me to open my dog's mouth. She did not try to handle my dog or make her feel comfortable. My dog was in my lap and has never had issues receiving oral vaccines at other clinics, but this time she was hesitant. I believe this was because the interaction felt rushed and impersonal, with no effort to ease her into the process. After the vaccine was given, no information was provided about aftercare or what to expect --nor was anything explained beforehand. I was not asked if I had questions or concerns at any point of the process. I had hoped this clinic would become the new place for both of my dogs, especially since it came so highly recommended. The price was reasonable, but compared to the level of care and customer service I've received at other clinics, this visit fell short. It ended up being cheaper, but not better. The Bordetella vaccine was $20. read more

I brought in my two cats and was immediately impressed by how organized and welcoming the clinic was. The staff were not only friendly but incredibly efficient I was fully taken care of within an hour. Their prices are very fair, and even more affordable than many other clinics I've visited. It's clear they genuinely care about both pets and owners. I'll definitely be bringing my pets here again and highly recommend! read more

Perfect! Got my cats fixed here, they are the best!! Low prices, thorough service, no appointments necessary!

First come first serve, took about 1.5 hours due to many people. Overall it's good spot to go and price is competitive vs others charging arm and leg for regular check-up and shots. My go to spot for future visits read more

I appreciate the nice staff and affordable prices thanks pro vet this has been my Vit years

I brought my dog in, she had not been eating. They asked if it was ok to do x-rays, yes of course! She was in bad shape, with a mass around her heart! We talked about different options, I made the choice to put her down, not an easy decision! The Vet was great with her & very understanding & sympathetic with me. I held her while she went over the rainbow! I would totally recommend them with cats & dogs! read more

Sorry I did not write this sooner. My bulldog was very sick. I decided not to take him to the local vet because they were bought up by a big corporation and only care about money. They charged me 550.00 for an ear infection. On 11/18 /2025 I drove from Chino Hills to Riverside. The first person was the person at the front desk named Rosa she made eye contact and was nice. She did an outstanding job. Next Candra took my dog to have x rays what a great asset to your business she was nice and understanding. The last person was Dr Groza she explained everything going on with my bulldog and was very nice. First whoever hired these 3 great jobs. My dog tank made it and the price I got charged was very fair. Words can say how great this place is. Thanks for everything Eric Van Alstine read more

Huge shout out to Candra for helping with my new puppy! She was super knowledgeable and gave us great pointers on how to manage my new puppy! You can tell she really loves and cares for the pets that come in. This vet is not the closest but worth the travel for the care! read more

Staff is outstanding and really cares. Works with you and your budget. Understands you're trying to get your pet taken care of and it doesn't feel like exploitation read more

I had an amazing experience at. The staff were incredibly friendly and caring with my pet from the moment we walked in. The clinic was spotless and welcoming, and the veterinarians took the time to explain everything clearly. They treated my pet like family and made sure we both felt comfortable the entire time. I really appreciate their professionalism and genuine love for animals -- I wouldn't trust anyone else with my pet's care. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate vet clinic! read more

If you are looking for an honest review, here's one: I have been into many, many vet hospitals trying to take care of my Dane and figure out a good treatment plan for her. Pro Vet was recommended to me by a client and I genuinely could not be more thankful I went. They treated me and my dog with such kindness and respect. They took the time to answer all of my questions (and I had a lot). I saw the genuine care they had for my dog and they walked me through the process completely. The only question I left with was "why hadn't I come here sooner?". I have been through many different vets in cities all over the states - Pro Vet is now my top choice for anyone looking for genuine care for their animals, go to Pro Vet! Thank you guys so much! read more

Dirk Butchko Pro Vet - Waiting line - Veterinarians Near Me - Riverside, California

Would not recommend. My dog was left at the clinic at opening and 6 hours later he was still not operated on. my poor baby was treated like a number and less like a patient. The personnel didn't have the decency to at least call and give us an update with falling so far behind that the surgery would not be performed until later in the evening. Thus requiring him to stay overnight. When expressing my concern it was addressed as if I "misunderstood" protocol. In other words it was my issue as opposed to apologizing for any miscommunication on their end. There was little or no regard for my pets well-being. Would not trust them with my pets read more

What I experience today has never happened to me. The lack of customer service will keep me from ever coming back here. I had a terrible experience at this vet clinic. The veterinarian ( didn't get a chance to get her name it was woman veterinarian) who was extremely rude and had an attitude toward my concerns. The rest of the staff weren't much better, lacking basic courtesy and professionalism. The visit felt rushed and unimportant. I do not recommend this clinic to anyone who values respectful and attentive care for their pets. I recommend going to SoCal Animal Hospital on Van Buren. They exceed customer service and you can tell they value and show empathy to humans and their pets. read more

I was recommended here by my ex who was a vet tech Cat got into a fight with my other cat breaking one of his nails sideways, removed the nail gave him an antibiotic shot was in and out in under 40 minutes. My boy is now back in perfect health and the staff could not have been kinder! I'll be back if I have anymore issues in the future! read more

Awesome customer service and reasonable pricing. Staff is very caring and helpful, weve brought all our pups here and never dissapoints.

I brought my dogs adopted cat here. (Long story on how my dog adopted him). The cat was very lethargic and didn't eat. I was worried it was sick and brought him to get checked out. All the girls in the front were so nice and kind. They helped me understand what was really wrong with the cat. Turns out he took a chunk of his tongue off! Khaleesi (my dog) is very happy her friend (the cat) is doing well. The vet gave him some pain meds and antibiotics and sent us on our way. I was thinking it was going to cost and arm and a leg but everything was very reasonable! They helped me understand a lot about cats and even gave me a few tips and tricks. To help me care for him. All in all great experience! Only thing to remember here is there are tons of walk ins! So be ready to wait a bit. I got there around 1:30pm or so and left about 1 hr later give or take. Which is expected so give yourself time to wait, they will come and assist you as soon as they can. The hour or so I was waiting everyone was doing something and helping so many people with their fur babies. So being patient was key. read more

They must be swamped and too busy even to pick up the phone. I've been listening to hold music for 35 minutes now, along with the same announcement assuring me they know I'm waiting, that they're striving to assist every caller, and that an associate will be with me shortly. Well... 35 minutes and counting. Apparently, they're committed to keeping my wait "as short as possible." But my patience is running out now! Sorry, Dr. Dirk Butchko, this would have never happened at your father's vet office. Your office is providing terrible customer service!!! read more

We rescued a little female English Bulldog. She was a breeder dog. She was very skinny, not socialized, take treats or toys. Took her to Dr. Butckho for a wellness checkup and vaccinations. She was given a thorough check up. They treated her with such kindness. Got some recommendations, supplements and we were on our way. She's on her way to feeling better. Thank you Butckho staff. read more

I am SO pleased to have found a great vet clinic at Pro Vet!! I highly recommend this clinic.... Everyone is super professional and attentive. Love love all the staff!! Yes you will wait, but it's worth it to go to a great clinic and be seen the same day. We bred our dog and Pro Vet was recommended by our retired vet as well as the reproductive clinic and other professionals. As first time breeders, they never treated our questions as dumb/uneducated and gave us great guidance on vaccinations, weaning, health issues, and all questions about successfully raising a litter of healthy puppies. It's an hour drive for us and it is well worth it. Highly recommended! read more

This is the best place to go!! Caring staff and convenient hours of operation. Is there a wait sometimes? Usually. But well worth it for you and your family members with fur. You just need to try and arrive early to get in line, but even still, you will be served kindly and efficiently. If there is a specific service that they are not offering on any given day, the staff will come out and announce it so that you don't sign in and waste your morning. I have taken both of my dogs here. The staff are very knowledgeable. I have a beagle who apparently had a really bad ear infection a few months back; he was taken care of and again, the staff were so kind to us. I think he was also neutered here during COVID. Had no issues and medication prices were fair. Our maltipoo now goes here as yesterday we had to go for flea and tick prevention. Unfortunately, they both had fleas due to our laying down seed of new grass. Process and prices to get them both Bravecto couldn't have went any smoother! I didn't even have to have the dogs wait and get the RX filled through chewy.com because they had it onsite, and the prices were the same! Super happy about that. I felt so bad to have to explain that they were off Bravecto for almost a year due to having to pay for emergency home repairs. They were very kind to me and showed no judgment. I will keep taking the pups here. read more

The staff is SUPER helpful and informative, they answer all your question and concerns. Please Note that they don't take appointments, it's all walk in. But trust me they are good.

The prices are a little lower than other location and the service is better. read more

Sitting in my car parked front of the vet about to leave after trying to check in for an exam at 9:20AM. Receptionist stated they finished taking exams at 9AM. So you're telling me, no Appointments allowed here, and you opened at 8AM, and stop taking exams at 9AM. Please take your business down the street to SOCAL K-9 HOSPITAL of Van Buren and Magnolia which pretty much took all if not most vet staff from BUTCHKO'S veterinary staff anyway to work for them a year or so ago. This place used to be highly recommended to many if not all my pet clients i service, but may have to think again for any future referrals. On my way to SOCAL K9 Clinic i go! read more

Dirk Butchko Pro Vet - Lucy - Veterinarians Near Me - Riverside, California

I am beyond furious with how I was bullied today at Pro Vet Dr. Butchko I walked in today 6/3/24 to give them a second chance because I thought they deserved another chance. I waited 20 minutes to be seen. I came and let them know my dog needed his yearly shots. The Vet came in and threw a file that had my printed yelp review. She DEMANDED I removed my review and if I didn't, they wouldn't help me. I replied to her, "No because that is how I felt that day. " The Karen Vet replied "ok, then you can't be seen here " then denied me services. The staff and the vet are incredibly rude and dismissive. It's obvious that they don't care about their customers at all. This experience was an absolute nightmare, and I am disgusted by the way I was treated. Pro vet clearly has no standards when it comes to customer service. I will never do business with them again, and I strongly advise others to avoid this company at all costs! read more
