I would like to give my glowing recommendation and praise to who I would call my friend and pet…read moresitter Melissa Bush. Melissa has been my pet sitter for almost 5 years. I completely trust her with the care of my fur baby, 100+ pound lab/Rottweiler mix, Patton. Melissa is not only honest, reliable, flexible, and available at short notice or emergency situations, she also showed enormous love and compassion for Patton. My dog LOVES Melissa, looking forward to her visits he gets excited at the mention of her name. Her rates are very reasonable for the services she renders. In fact as a busy person who feels quite guilty leaving my dog in the care of another, I love getting off work to find a text from Melissa updating me on how Patton's day was with her. I have complete trust in her being in my home and having access to my house key. Melissa always does exactly what is asked of her and shows interest and knowledge in my dog, alerting me to potential medical or behavioral problems. Patton has had a few medical issues throughout his short life, and she is great at giving him his meds and keeping an eye on his progress. My dog needs the comfort of his own home and really doesn't like the kennel/day camp situation. Melissa relieves this stress on me and and for him by providing exceptional service at an affordable rate. Her never ending love and concern for my dog will never be forgotten. I would like to invite anyone with any questions or concerns to please send me an email.

I can't say enough wonderful things about Alternatives for Animals and Dr. Rettig. If you're…read morelooking for compassionate, thoughtful, and effective care for your animals, I wholeheartedly recommend them. When my older dog started struggling with arthritic joints, we decided to try acupuncture, and it truly turned things around. Before long, he was back to hopping onto his favorite spots -- the couch and the bed -- without any trouble. Seeing that kind of improvement meant everything to me. One thing I appreciate most is that I never once felt upsold. Dr. Rettig only recommended therapies she genuinely believed he needed, and that honesty and integrity are so refreshing. You can tell she truly cares about her patients and their quality of life. The entire staff has always been professional and kind, and everyone there is wonderful with humans too -- which matters so much. When my dog was diagnosed with untreatable cancer, Dr. Rettig helped give him the best months he possibly could have had. That gift of time, comfort, and dignity is something I'll always be grateful for. I also love that they carry really high-quality foods, treats and other products, which makes it easy to support your pet's health in every way.

I need more stars to give. Dr. Rettig is essential to our family, and I have told her that if she…read moreever moves away, she should just plan that we are coming along with her. From our very first visit, she completely understood and intuited the needs of our sweet dog Jojo, and has kept her healthy and vibrant well into her "senior years" (I use quotation marks because Jojo is about 13 years old but is frequently mistaken for a puppy, given how youthful and energetic she is). I can't even begin to express what a tremendous gift it has been to feel secure that we can handle any health issues that come up for Jojo, with the support of Dr. Rettig and her team. We animal guardians love our little ones so much, and there's nothing worse than watching them suffer and not knowing how to help. Whenever I can surrender enough to completely hand over the assessment and decision making to Dr. Rettig, we always get a good outcome. On more than one occasion, we have seen resolution of an acute issue within 24 hours of our treatment session. It's been truly remarkable. Dr. Rettig is an expert in holistic animal care, but on the few occasions that Jojo has needed specialty help from a traditional vet, Dr. Rettig communicated that to us immediately and supplied us with wonderful referrals. We trust her recommendations completely. Jojo loves Dr. Rettig, too! She is often eager and excited when we arrive at the clinic, which is not the case with ANY other vet we have taken her to see. We all know how lucky we are to have access to such a unique healing practice!

I think my puppy must have fallen in love with Dr. Bane immediately, because by the time the two of…read morethem came out to the sidewalk (Covid precaution) to continue our quite extensive initial appointment, she had his absolutely devoted attention, cooperation, & trust. Dr. Bane's exam (March 2021) was comprehensive and well-beyond helpful. She noted that he had an undescended testicle (totally missed by the staff at a local corporately owned vet hospital, and by me), and spent lots of time offering much needed guidance about his diet -- including offering me a basic recipe that greatly improved upon his home-cooked meals and analyzing what vitamins and minerals should be added to make them optimal. Since I also feed him Carna4 kibble, she went over those ingredients thoroughly as well. As is common with doodles, my pup has a somewhat sensitive gut and itchy skin. When Animal Biome sent a detailed report on his microbiome, Dr. Bane spent half an hour of her own time (no charge to me) consulting with their microbiologist, and then spent lots of time (at a very reasonable cost) going over their report with me and making recommendations. She's been wonderfully accessible and thoughtful whenever I've needed guidance -- most recently about a minimally invasive approach to his cryptorchid neutering and gastropexy, and in a short time I've come to trust her completely. I'm very thankful we found our way to All Paws and especially to Dr. Bane!

Dr. Chalmers did her usual arcane muscle testing before providing multiple detoxifying and supportive supplements plus two homeopathic remedies, which have considerably reduced the frequency and intensity of seizures and reanimated her energy. Dr. Chalmers appears more comfortable communicating with the pet than with its person; she makes a visible strong connection with the pet that for our dog and us has been very beneficial. Alexa, the office manager, is a gem who can explain procedures and the recommended supplements. This practice is a good alternative when more conventional vet care seems less than ideal for a particular condition, and is especially good for palliative care for aging companions.

After consulting with Jeremy we felt much better. He helped us get her off all the medications that didn't seem to be helping, and gave us a list of supplements to get her feeling better. Within a few months she was back to her amazing, playful self. Jeremy gave us the gift of loving our fur baby for a couple years longer than we probably would have had her if we kept her medicated. There's no words I can come up with to thank Jeremy enough. For anyone looking for a more holistic approach for themselves or pup, I cannot recommend him enough.

I've also been referred for way more expensive procedures that I didn't think were necessary. Finally, we were referred to Dr. Richter. He listened to my dog's history, understood my thinking, told me it made sense, and told me he understood the pathway I wanted to take. For once, I wasn't automatically crazy or a "helicopter" pup parent. He really gets it. Dr. Richter had a very reasonable grasp on my dog's history and the reasons for his issues. I am so looking forward to continuing treatment with him in the coming months, focusing on the gut and on my dog's past mold exposure. I can't say enough about what it means to be truly heard and understood by a vet, and have them speak to you on a well-informed level. Dr. Richter is not only brilliant, he also has excellent people skills. Most vets try to talk down to me or put me in my place when I come with as much info as I do, and that gets me nowhere, just burning my bank account and morale. Thank you so much, Dr. Richter + clinic staff. You all make a huge difference in our lives and we could not be more grateful.
