    Shhhhhh(surprise gift) This is the personalized holiday gift you can get at Pet Paradise/Rio Rancho.
    David M.

    My 16 week old pug puppy went to Day Camp for Pet Paradise's Get Acquainted day. That makes trying this out a no brainer. I like the ability to view your dog on web cam. My puppy also wanted the spa treatment so she was pristine and smelling really good when I picked her up. We'll be back. Everyone was very professional and they even followed up on us the day after to make sure we were well and satisfied. I appreciate that. "Maddy" also got a holiday ornament with her photo in a stocking with treats and bandanas. She doesn't know about this yet. I'm waiting to give it to her at Christmas with the other things on her list.

    We were so excited to go on our first family trip. I'm always anxious leaving our pets but only because they don't understand what's going on when we board them. I've always believed they would be safe at least. That is, until we got a call mid trip that Kiko, our 13 year old dog had an accident. The story we were told was that two dogs were playing and sandwiched Kiko breaking his ankle in two places. Kiko is an old dog. He doesn't play at the kennel, he prefers to hang out with his handlers and he should not have been around two other dogs rough-housing. After monitoring Kiko they decided to take him to an emergency vet and his ankle is now broken in two places. They returned him to Pet Paradise. When we arrived to pick him up it was....here is your dog with a broken leg. They were very nonchalant and sent me without any medication, instructions, or discharge papers. I had to go back in and ask for them as well as when the Medicines were given. They told us the medicine was given at 7:30 am and that he was due again now so when we got home I gave him his medication. When my husband talked to the manager the next day she said it was given at 5 pm which means he was double dosed. I had to call the emergency vet to make sure he was ok. I know accidents happen and we deal with human error all day long but This is a company that is supposed to love animals. Instead , when talking to the regional manager Rachael Humphrey. She curtly replied "why should I have to pay you" and when first hearing about the incident told the Rio Rancho manager if I wanted to sue I would have to come to Florida. She never once asked how Kiko was doing or that she was sorry for the incident. I had never even talked about suing but I am guessing this is nothing new to them. This company is run by an investment group, the Crane Group so although the lower level managers agreed they should pay the bill and there are plenty of employees I'm sure love animals the farther you get up the chain the colder and more corporate and calculated they become. This is a warning that when this happens to your dog this is what you will get. It is disturbing the lack of empathy this company shows its clients. Even though Kiko is 13 he still has life in him and now he has a long recovery ahead of him. Please help spread the word about Kiko's experience at Pet Paradise. more training and empathy need to be taken and chose a different boarding facility that actually understands that dogs are our family members not just a business transaction run by an investment company they can brush off the liability for. I was also told Kiko's medical bills would be given to the "director of operations" but when I have reached out to get an update on yes or a no, they have chosen to pretend it never happened.

    Our Aslynn loves to play and be pampered at Rio Rancho Pet Paradise. The staff is always professional but also loving and kind to our white German Shepard.

    Recently used Pet Paradise in Rio Rancho 8/16-17-18 2021. I had to leave out of town for a funeral so had to board my Rotti for a couple of days. I checked out a couple of places near my home before I left her. Although, Pet Paradise was a little further from my home I chose to leave her here. The facility is nice and clean, (important) lots of space in the yards. Another plus was that they have camera access, so you can see your baby having fun or not. (extra important) I was able to watch Luna interact on her first time in the yard with the other dogs I noticed she didn't want to play, instead she stayed in a corner. Then watched the young lady who was watching them in the yard try to coax her over to play, in which she refused, so she walked over to Luna put a leash on her and reassured her that she was okay. After a few minutes on the leash she began to interact and felt comfortable she removed the leash and wasn't in the corner anymore. After that, I noticed that each time she went out in the yard she was having a blast playing! I felt reassured that Luna was going to have a great time! I only wish I knew who the young lady was because she honestly went the extra mile with Luna! All I can say is, If all your employees are this way it absolutely makes a difference!!! It shows they care about each and every pet in their care! So, Thank you Pet Paradise!!! I will definitely use your Daycare again! Lucille

    See all

    Personally, I haven't gone to Sunrise Veterinary Clinic often. In fact, this latest version was…read moreonly my second trip there. The first visit was when we had to put down the best dog I've ever had, Molly. So, emotionally, I have negative connotations associated with Sunrise Veterinary Clinic. However, I'd rather give an objective review, rather than reflect on an incredibly sad occasion in the past. The recent visit to Sunrise Veterinary Clinic was a good one. We have a new puppy, so we're in the process of getting the new puppy caught up on her shots. We went there on Monday, October 26, when the snow started coming down. They have adjusted to the reality of veterinary practice during this time of COVID, well. They took my wife's phone number, then she came out in the car where we waited until they were ready for us. We got our new puppy and were visited by Dr. Abernathy. I was impressed with Dr. Abernathy. He spent time discussing the next steps we had to follow, some tips concerning our puppy and so on. I consider that to be excellent customer service. Bottom line, if you're in the Rio Rancho area, and you own a pet, I recommend you consider Sunrise Veterinary Clinic for your veterinary needs.

    The good: Dr. Abernathy is an exceptional veterinarian who genuinely cares about our animals. I…read moretrust him completely, and that is the reason I have stayed with this clinic for years. The concern: the front desk experience is inconsistent. When you get someone helpful, the process is smooth. When you don't, it becomes frustrating enough to reconsider coming back. Update - April 28, 2026 My puppy has been limping and holding her paw up while walking, so I called the day prior and spoke with Matthew, who was professional and helpful. He advised me to call at 7:30 a.m. to arrange a drop-off for evaluation. I followed those instructions exactly. I arrived at 7:30 a.m., called, left a message, waited for them to open, and called again. After waiting, I went inside to follow up and was told that if I came in before receiving a callback, I would be charged an additional fee and needed to go back outside and call again. I complied and called again, but after additional waiting, I called once more because I needed to leave for work. At that point, Bernice told me she had until 9:00 a.m. to call me back, in a dismissive and hostile tone. For context, I have been a long-term client with five pets currently under care, along with multiple pets prior to them. I ultimately had to leave. Shortly after getting into Albuquerque, I received a callback asking if I could return by 9:30. That was not feasible given the earlier delays and lack of accommodation. I want to acknowledge and thank Dr. Abernathy for the consistent care he has provided over the years, and Matthew for his professionalism. However, ongoing issues with front desk staff--specifically Bernice and Lexi--have made the overall experience difficult enough that I will be seeking care elsewhere. It is unfortunate to leave a provider I trust due to customer service concerns, but the inconsistency at the front desk has reached a point where it outweighs the quality of care.

    If you're anything like my family, you love your dog! Oh, and yes dogs rule, while cats drool!…read moreSorry, I just had to get that off my chest! Anyway, despite the fact that you love your dog, you can't always bring her with you. Am I right? Especially if your girl is a larger dog (big girls need love too), sometimes it's best to just leave the old girl at home. But there's the catch! Unlike a cat, you just can't leave Spot unattended! Dogs need that human interaction, unlike cats that really don't give a rat's ass about you. So, what do you do? You either find a family friend and impose (how rude), or you find a kennel. We chose the latter! Happy Tails is ran by the nicest dog loving woman you might ever meet. Fret not crazy cat people, she probably has a soft spot for cats too if you're in need. Nevertheless, the rates are fair, you can either bring your own food or she'll feed them hers, and she throws in a nightly treat. In addition, you can bring something personal so your dog isn't too sad. We brought our dog's bed with us as we dropped her off so she'd be a tad more comfortable and not so depressed. If you're in need, Happy Tails has got your six! Give 'em a go, you'll be glad you did. Administrative note: Don't trust GPS to get you there, it's wrong! Take the Carnuel Road exit off the 40 as you're traveling East. Go across old Route 66 and stay to the left. Keep going past Silver Hills LN (even though the address is 1 Silver Hills LN) and it will be on your right. Try to go before it gets dark to alleviate your anxiety. Cheers!
