Lilo after!!!
Barbara S.

Our sweet Lilo tore her ACL last November, I took her to a vet near me and was quoted over $5,000 for surgery to repair it. I found Serenity holistic vet for a second opinion and I am SO thankful I did!! After an exam Dr Rose said she didn't need surgery! She gave Lilo acupuncture treatment and cold laser therapy. She was also put on a diet (she was a hearty girl) and given supplements. Since November of 2024 she has lost all of her extra weight and is a whole new girl!!! Her ACL is completely healed and she has more energy than ever!!! I am beyond grateful for Dr Rose and staff for their caring and knowledgeable care! I will never take our furbabies anywhere else! HIGHLY RECOMMEND Serenity Holistic Vet

Dr. Rose at Serenity Holistic Vet made a very difficult day having to say goodbye to my girl Chessie a very special,caring and compassionate experience at home so Chessie was where she was most comfortable. Dr. Rose was gentle during every step and I really can't express my gracious gratitude to her enough. Dr. Rose was my angel today for Chessie ...

I am so happy I found this place. Going to regular vets I was left unsatisfied and my dog getting the bare minim of help. Throughout the years I've always felt western vets provide bandaids for most problems where as Serenity provides real help and solutions. The space and people are so welcoming and took great care of my pup. I am doing weekly adjustments and laser for my dog and I have no doubt this is going to help much better than anything else I've tried. Going in on my first visit I was expecting to pay a fortune but to my surprise their prices are realistic and fair. Thank you Dr. Rose ask staff for proving such a wonderful clinic.

Violet and Butch.  Butch's first visit to Serenity Holistic Vet

This vet has helped my cats with Stomatitis and FIV when my conventional vet has pretty much given up. I highly recommend them (I will explain into detail below if you want to read the details). The staff is professional, compassionate, and knowledgeable about what they do. The office is small but clean and always has a calm and welcoming atmosphere-and that's even when there is more than myself there. They have two exam rooms (one is in the picture) and both have low beds for your pet. The decor is minimal but pleasant. Floors are concrete and it seems that my cats love the cool floors. The initial consultation may seem a bit expensive (over $150 when I first took my cats) but I would definitely say it's worth it. My biggest complaints are that I wish they were closer-it takes me nearly an hour each way from the Hemet area to get to them. And I wish I had found them much sooner. The most important thing I would like to suggest to someone that is new to holistic treatments is this-don't expect immediate results. Be patient. Sometimes it takes a while for treatments to help in such a way that we (the humans) can see. I'm so glad I have been patient although the staff can confirm I've gotten impatient at times. We want to see our furry companions feel better immediately, not in a month or more. Violet (the gray cat in the pics and wearing the goggles) was the first cat I took here. She was diagnosed with stomatitis around October of 2021. She was a mess-wouldn't really eat, her mouth was constantly red and infected, and she was just miserable. My conventional vet prescribed steroids to help with the swelling and suggested extracting the majority of her teeth. I was against pulling her teeth as prior experience had told me that it does no good in helping the disease, and so I waited. We tried all sorts of things I could find on the internet and the vast majority didn't help. Her steroid use was constant-sometimes a daily dose just to get her to eat. Seven months later I gave in to my vet's recommendation and we had her teeth pulled behind her canines. And guess what? It didn't help. She still needed the steroids far more often than she should and I was left scouring the internet for something else. I found a set of products that helped us get her steroid use down but it was still a weekly thing. I finally found Serenity Holistic vet on the web and made an appointment. It was suggested by Dr Rose that we start Violet on laser treatment around her mouth and we did so. I take her in as often as I can but with the hour drive each way it's not as often as I would like. Dr. Rose also prescribed a Chinese medicine and a supplement. She has been on this and the laser treatment since her first visit back in May and I'm excited to say I'm really seeing results. She's acting more like her old self and her best run without steroid use was nearly two months! The second cat I took in was Mr. Sniffles. He's an outside stray that adopted me a few years ago. At some point of being outside he contracted FIV and my conventional vet has many times hinted that euthanasia was the best course for any FIV cat. Before I took him to Serenity Holistic Vet I was giving him immune support as well as a thyroid support. He was surviving on my treatment but not thriving. He was extremely underweight, his coat was mangy and dull, and he would get flare ups of an upper respiratory problem where he would sneeze so much that he would get a bloody nose. He's only been to Serenity Holistic Vet once, back near the end of August and Dr. Rose recommended we do some bloodwork since it had been quite a while (conventional vet didn't suggest more bloodwork since we knew what his problem was). The bloodwork revealed some other stuff and Dr. Rose has gotten Mr Sniffles on a couple of Chinese medicines and a couple of supplements. It's only been a little over a month but it seems like he's gaining some weight-finally! He's still sneezing and gets his bloody nose but perhaps not as often. As I stated before-be patient for results. The last cat I've taken is Butch. He was diagnosed with lymphatic cancer by my conventional vet. I got him into Serenity Holistic Vet within a couple of days and Dr. Rose got him started on some Chinese medicines. I didn't expect a miraculous recovery but was just hoping for some more time. Sadly, about a week later he crashed and passed. I really think we got him into the conventional vet and had him diagnosed too late to really do any good-it was that far advanced. I include this example to illustrate the importance of being realistic. Serenity Holistic Vet is great and I will continue to take my animals there but they aren't able to create miracles. Okay, my Violet is pretty close to a miracle since I've tried everything else but hopefully you understand my point.

Dr. Rose and her staff are amazing. I have a seven-year-old German Shepherd having issues with his hips and arthritis. I took him in for an adjustment and now we are trying acupuncture. The results are phenomenal. I feel like it's a better alternative than traditional vets that always want to push x-rays and bloodwork . My dog is responding very well to the treatments . I called to make an appointment and they returned my phone call right away and were able to get me in immediately. They are very compassionate and their follow-up care is awesome. We are going back for our second acupuncture treatment tomorrow. I can tell my dog actually is looking forward to the visit. I would highly recommend this business if you're looking for a caring and compassionate vet that will accommodate your choices. Dr. Rose is simply amazing. Thank you Casey Burns

Our pup is a 9 year old lab mix named Mace. He's been dealing with severe allergy issues his entire life to the point where his entire body was covered with raw sores and missing hair. He would get infected and licked constantly. In an effort to help him, we tried EVERYTHING...visiting every "specialist" in the valley, paying for expensive allergy testing, rX diets, antibiotics, steroids, shots, diet changes with homemade food, raw food, slowly changing types of foods, medicated baths, etc. We spent thousands and thousands of dollars to do this, and yet, Mace never got better, only worse. This went on for YEARS. We were feeling defeated and it hurt to see our poor little pup in such a miserable state. Then came along Dr. Samantha Rose! She spent time with him, learned about his history, and really dove into trying to help him. She adjusted him, did acupuncture, instructed a new bath regiment, had us go to a "cooling blood" type diet to help reduce inflammation, special Chinese herbs, amongst other things. It's important to note that the improvements didn't happen overnight, but Dr. Rose and us stuck with it and never gave up. EVENTUALLY, we were able to find a manageable treatment THAT WORKED!! One of the things we believe had a big impact was a "fecal transplant" which helped our dog create good gut bacteria. The mild probiotic shampoo baths help, along with the fish diet and a small dose of Apoquel and fish oil all seem to work together perfectly for Mace. I'm happy to report that Mace has been living an amazing life for the last year and his coat is shinier and softer than it's ever been before. It seems we have found the magic recipe for Mace! Everyone compliments how gorgeous he looks and feels, and he's back to being a happy dog, super playful and energetic! I honestly cannot believe the transformation Mace has had, and the positive effect it's had on me too! If you're looking for a vet that cares about your beloved pup as much as you do, look no further. Dr. Rose is all about the love, results, compassion, science, and Eastern medicine (all in balance) needed to help you with your pet needs. Her prices are fair, office is professional, and overall I give this business 5 stars, although I'd give more if I could!!

So thankful I found them, my toy poodle who was unable to walk with his hinds legs due to an inner ear infection is now walking and doing so much better. Thank you to all the wonderful staff. They are always pleasant and sweet!

She was genuine, compassionate, and truly took the time to be present with us. She never made us feel rushed and allowed the process to unfold naturally, which meant so much during such a heartbreaking moment. I especially appreciated that she uses propofol to ensure a deep plane of anesthesia before administering the final injection. Knowing that Timber was completely asleep and unaware of what was happening brought me a tremendous sense of peace and comfort. The entire process was smooth, gentle, and peaceful, and I am incredibly thankful that Timber was able to be in the comfort of his own home, surrounded by the people who loved him. Thank you, Dr. Conner, for giving Timber such a peaceful goodbye and for treating both him and our family with such genuine kindness and compassion.

We had to unexpectedly put our ten year old Husky down about a week and a half ago. She had been…read moreperfectly healthy her entire life, and about two weeks ago she started acting really lethargic. After days of vet visits, we found out she had a tumor on her spleen, blood had leaked into her abdomen, and cancer had spread all throughout her organs. The vet said there was nothing they could do and that she needed to be put down. My husband and I had had her since she was 6 weeks old and we did everything with her and her little black lab sister (hiking, camping, dog beach, etc.). We expected to have several more years with her and were completely and utterly devastated that we had to put her down. Tranquil Tails went above and beyond. The doctor and the technician arrived at our house and immediately got down on the ground with us and pet our dog and spoke to her with such kindness and love. They were so soft spoken and gently explained the process to us. After sedating her, we were given time alone to say our goodbyes. After she passed, they discreetly covered her up and took her to their car on a gurney. They gave me a hug and sincerely told me how sorry they were for our loss. A week and a half later, a nice young woman hand delivered a very nice box to our home filled with our dog's ashes, a clay paw print, fur clippings, a nose prints and a nice letter. They made such a difficult and heartbreaking experience easier and I could not be more grateful to them for the love and care they provided.

When we arrived around 11 a.m., it was definitely busy. There were a lot of people, and some were even standing because all the seats were taken. No dramatic long line. But honestly, they moved through everyone much faster than I expected. We waited about 30-40 minutes, but it went by pretty quickly, and once it was our turn, my dog was in and out in about 10 minutes. They also offer a military discount, which was a nice bonus. I was expecting to spend around $100, but all three of my dog's vaccines came out to only $65 in total! I was honestly shocked at how affordable it was. If you're looking for budget-friendly vaccines for your pet, I highly recommend coming here. They accept walk-ins on Saturdays, and Saturdays are the only day they offer both walk-ins and discounted vaccines. This is definitely going to be my go-to place for my baby girl from now on. Great prices, efficient service, and a wonderful experience overall!

I work from home so as I was wrapping up for the night I heard in the next room breathing o open up yelp and saw this vet was less that a mile from my new home, I saw they were still open so I call and was able to get her in for that Saturday!!! Score!! I had read some of the reviews so I was like oh no after I made the appointment but I went anyways. My baby was so scared and the vet tech was so sweet and loving to they dr came in and spent a good 30 min talking to me about things to look for and I said let test her at her next appointment in 4 months this way we have a marker of her now and in 4 months to make sure she doesn't have any of the markers that would a genetic defect or anything we need to worry about. I was last appointment so they were ready to go and I didn't feel rush or not welcome. I mean the lady that checked me out reminded me of my mom just no nonsense straight to point type of person but not unpleasant. I am glad I kept my appointment and I feel better know she is just a heavy breathing kitty I think most people who had negative comments either had no life experiences or they are the problem idk I definitely will go back and recommend

Not even gonna rate this hospital as very disappointed after using them for almost most people…read morethink of it in this case years with my Havapoo! Apparently, my dog was having bladder issues and the doctor wanted to do a test for cushions disease because that's what she believed it was after making an appointment online. She said I made the wrong one and she charged me $135 more because I checked the wrong box which I think is not Good business practice being a long-term customer first of all. Needless to say, I got a second opinion, and I did have to put my dog to sleep because the other doctor asked why x-rays were never taken. Apparently he had bladder stones and one lodged in his urethra , his liver was enlarged and something was going on with his kidneys and I felt at that age it wasn't appropriate to put him through all the pain and suffering of surgery!!!. I don't recommend this animal hospital as maybe if they would've caught it sooner I wouldn't have had to make this decision. It breaks my heart to think that waiting and wrong diagnosis was a problem that caused my dogs short life. The staff in Front was quite rude and they took me as a walk in so I had to wait several hours to have my dog seen who was not feeling well. Do your due diligence get a second opinion if you are not happy with the first one. I am not saying this because I am angry or in pain with the grief of losing my best friend. I just think it's important to get second opinions if you are not sure that you are happy with your doctors diagnose thank you.

As Nala approached 9 months old, she began showing signs of reactivity toward people and other dogs, especially on walks. We couldn't have anyone new come into our home without her barking, growling, and displaying dominant behavior. Walks became stressful--she would lunge at certain people wearing hats or sunglasses and at other dogs. We were starting to lose hope and knew we needed guidance to help Nala trust us and feel secure. We reached out to Emily, and from her very first consultation, we knew we had made the right choice. Emily arrived calm and relaxed, allowed Nala to approach her at her own pace, and immediately showed us how Nala should properly greet people. From that moment, I knew Emily was the perfect trainer for us. We've been working with Emily for 3 months, focusing on how Nala approaches people entering our home, and the progress has been incredible. Nala is now a very obedient dog, and we feel confident managing visitors. Walks were our next challenge, and Emily guided us through trying different collars, learning how to use our body language and tone of voice, and properly using the leash and collar. She emphasized praise, play, and rewarding Nala when she succeeded, which helped release her energy in a positive way. We have since enrolled in group sessions to work on properly introducing Nala to other dogs. Thanks to Emily's guidance, Nala has truly transformed into a completely different dog. Emily gave us the tools to feel confident, comfortable, and capable as dog owners. She doesn't waste time--she gets results while ensuring we understand what we're doing and why. We are so grateful for Emily and will absolutely continue working with her as we keep practicing and doing our homework. She is truly amazing, and we owe Nala's progress to her dedication and expertise.

Almost 13 years with this special Aussie was not enough time. He will not only be remembered by us, but by those he touched over the years. So many memories. He was an entertainer at Yelp gatherings, Petco Park events (we had the opportunity to participate in the very first box seats in the Barkyard at Petco Park) to winning contests at the Gaslamp Holiday Pet Parade. Dr. Derek performed home euthanasia on our beloved pet. He gave some tips on how to handle our other pet who may be missing thier partner in crime. He was patient and kind. We stayed with our pet to provide comfort and to say goodbye, which is never an easy process. Grief is a funny thing that sneaks up on you at random times but you must go through it and not around it. Kindle has passed over the rainbow bridge. We will miss him greatly. You never know until your animal is gone how much space they really took in your life. Love and light sweet pup.

But on this day, something seemed so incredibly cruel. I knew that I was greeting you, my beloved fur family member for the very last time. Only a short while ago you were that cute bundle of energy being chased around the house with a shoe or a wallet or a piece of junk mail in your mouth. You never met a soul, a treat, or a ball you didn't like. Slowly, then all of a sudden... I noticed you wearing down. Sometimes I had to lift you into or out of the car. You no longer wanted to chase the squirrels or bark at passers-by or walk as far as you used to, but that's OK. The love between us was strong and never wavered. In good times and bad. You never cared if I was cranky or stressed or tired. You were my best friend no matter what. My heart hurts because your favorite spot on the floor is now so cold and empty. When it's time to say goodbye, everybody has the same doubts: are we doing the right thing? How can anything be more difficult than to weigh your need for peace against our own need to hold on. But we accept this pain so that it can end yours. And in an instant, your struggle to move and breathe turned to calm. My sweet baby boy. You were ours for a little while, and Heaven is so lucky to have you now. Pro tip: Dr. Derek of Paws Into Grace provided a warm, loving, and dignified end-of-life service for our Aussie. His support, empathy, and kindness was much appreciated on this day unlike any other.
