We were visiting the jersey shore for the weekend, when my fiancé and…read more1 year old golden retriever mix puppy were attacked by a dog that got loose from a neighbors house. Our pup had puncture wounds under his eye, and we rushed to find a hospital to care for him. From the moment we walked in, the staff was so kind to us. They were so careful and sweet with Bear, and completed a very thorough exam to make sure he was stable. Dr D took the time to sit with us in the waiting room and talk through the full exam, which we really appreciated. Thank you to this Shore Veterinarians team!

Plus her background with animals working for a vet and as a zookeeper was impressive. She took wonderful care of our pup. We had never left him before, but she knew good signs to look for that he was happy. She was also very patient with us. We texted her a lot and she answered us right away, reassured us, and sent pictures. She gave us tremendous peace of mind. Also her prices are extremely reasonable considering her knowledge, expertise, and flexibility. We can't thank her enough!

This was the worst experience I've ever had at a veterinary hospital. I took my cat here for a…read moresimple nail trim in September 2025. They completely missed trimming the thumb nail, and a month later I noticed my cat constantly biting at her paw. When I checked, I found that the missed nail had grown into her paw pad, causing her pain and discomfort. I called the hospital to explain what happened and scheduled an appointment. When I arrived, the staff immediately tried to shift the blame by saying, "We see that her nails grow quickly." I corrected them right away--none of her other nails were even close to being long. It was very clear this one nail had been missed during the trim. Instead of acknowledging their mistake, they refused to take responsibility and tried to charge me $200 for an antibiotic to treat a problem they caused. I told the doctor this should be fixed at no cost since it was their error, but they refused and sent me home with my cat--still injured and without medication. One of the worst veterinary experiences I've ever had. I've been to many vets and never encountered such poor care, lack of accountability, and disregard for an animal's well-being. I will never return and would not recommend this place to anyone who cares about their pet.

I…read morehad many cats as a child, but after my last feline pal passed away, I was too heartbroken to welcome another cat into my life. After a few years of mourning, my girlfriend knew I needed a new cat to love. She planned to find me a cat for Christmas, but even after searching most of the animal shelters in South Jersey, I couldn't find my forever friend. It wasn't until visiting the Humane Society of Ocean City (a town I frequently spend my summers in) that I met Wednesday. She was seven months old, playful, and black from head to tail. I formally adopted her on Valentine's Day, and we showered her with love ever since. The Humane Society gave me a folder containing her date of birth, medical records, and instructions to register her HomeAgain microchip. Either Wednesday is a preternaturally well-behaved cat, or the Ocean City Humane Society did a fantastic job at raising her. She never missed her litter box, scratched at the leather furniture in my living room, or attacked a human. She's extremely affectionate and loves to travel. Wednesday's vet is located directly across from the animal shelter, and her first checkup was free. I gave Wednesday a home, and in return, she gave me all her love. I'm thankful to the Human Society of Ocean City for bringing us together.

I have donated money and items to the adoption side in the past, but will never use this vet office now, all because of this rude office person answering the phone.

I feel so fortunate to have found Paws First, which gives me the option to have my pets cared for in their own home. The ability to book online makes arranging for pet sitting so easy and convenient. Response time is always very quick, and the rates are reasonable for the peace of mind these people provide. I love getting email updates on how my dogs are doing. Even when they're naughty and get into the trash or have a little accident, everything is in order when I get home and my dogs are happy and loved. **Need to add an update because of one visit in particular. It has taken me a while to be able to write this. Over the Summer, I had the amazing folks from Paws First watching my dogs while I was away for the weekend out of state. My senior dog's health had been in decline for a while, but it didn't seem to be cause for too much concern- just typical old dog stuff. One night, her health took a very sudden and dramatic turn. It was clear that if she were brought in to the the vet that she would not be returning. I didn't want my old girl's last moments to be spent someplace unfamiliar. The staff at Paws First went above and beyond to provide extra care and comfort to her when she needed it most so I could race home to be with her. I am forever grateful for all they did for her.
