I would highly recommend this place if you ever need to board your pet--even if it's for a couple of hours.

We have been going here for 2 years ever since we moved to the area. We recently had to say goodbye…read moreto our 14 year old Yorkie who has been part of our family since she was a few months old. DR. PAN was wonderful and was there every step of the way. She kept us posted every couple of hours on her condition. Dr. Pan was very compassionate with what we were going through and explained what to expect. The other staff we would like to give special thanks to during that very emotional and devastating time is TERRI. She has always been wonderful during every visit and her hugs that day really helped. Thank you!

Finding the best vet for your pet is not as simple as choosing a restaurant or a mechanic--everyone…read morehas different needs. But in the spirit of helping neighbors, I provide a summary of my recent experience with Godspeed, where my dog has been a client for 6 years. He had a stricture in his colon which was resulting in pooping-problems for about 5 months. It was a complicated case that looked like constipation + diarrhea. Dr. Hale and his team treated my dog over the course of 3 weeks for this condition--with kindness, thoughtfulness, good care, and communication. The stricture is now functionally repaired, and we very likely avoided surgery. Thus, not only did they provide a successful treatment, but they saved me thousands of dollars in the cost of surgery. My advice? Get pet insurance, as Dr. Hale advised me a couple of years ago! And take your dog to Godspeed Animal Care in Williamsburg if you can.

We are extremely picky about where we board our dogs; a very old cocker spaniel on medication and…read morean anxiety prone terrier mix. Prior to moving to Williamsburg, we drove our dogs to a boarder that was almost an hour away because we knew they were good to our pets. Once in Williamsburg, we visited most of the dog boarding providers, and decided giving Paws a try. We have left our dogs there several times over the last couple of years. While we still feel anxious boarding them, our dogs are always happy and in very good shape. They do not have any stress when we take them there, which is a good sign. Additionally, our dogs and their bedding return to us without the smell that often results from boarding. I cannot recommend them enough! We can enjoy our trips knowing our little ones are in good hands.

This was my first and last time boarding at Paws Pet Resort. My two dogs were boarded this past…read moreweekend for 5 total nights. Upon pickup I was informed that one of my dogs had a spot on the top of her head that was bleeding a little bit, which was not super out of the ordinary. The staff let me know that she thought it was "old lady spots," and that she cleaned it up and put some cream on it. I didn't think too much of it and took my dogs home. Later in the day I realized that she was actually covered in small wounds on the top of her head and three large wounds along the back of her neck. Brought her into my vets office and they confirmed it looks as though she got her head stuck under a chain link fence and tore up her head and neck. It greatly concerns me that no one was around to notice this or even bring it to my attention. I called this morning to inquire about anything additional that may have happened and they told me they had no idea. I feel terrible for letting my dog stay here when she already tends to be slow to warm to new environments. Please beware of this kennel. I have brought my dogs to several kennels over the years since we are a military family and never had anything like this occur.

My beloved indoor cat went missing outdoors for 2 days. We found her late in the evening, and…read morecalled the clinic as soon as they opened the next morning at 7:30AM to see if we could get her a check up ASAP. The receptionist picked up and was able to immediately schedule a check up at 9:15AM the same day. Once we arrived, we were promptly seen by Dr. Bates within 5-10 minutes. He and the staff clearly know how to deal with distraught, uneasy animals. He checked out my cat for any issues and sent us home with some medication and peace of mind! We are grateful the clinic could take us on short notice and ensure our cat didn't pick up any major illness/bugs during her outdoor escape. It wasn't a cheap vet visit, but it was absolute worth it. Our cat has also been seen by Dr. Bates for vaccinations and fleas within the past few years - both of those visits were great experiences as well!

But yesterday the lady at the front desk asked how she was and I told her that she is good and handful at times but such a great dog to have. She then looked at me and said, "I hope you don't take any offense to this but German shepherds are working dogs and need to be worked. They don't need to be pets." I was in so much shock I couldn't believe that this woman would ever say something to a customer like that. Utterly rude and unprofessional

Instructions were to bring him back the next morning for X-rays if he wasn't able to keep anything down. He didn't keep it down and when we called at opening the next morning we were told to take him to an emergency clinic because there were no doctors on staff that day. No referrals given, and no attempt to reach out to another VCA facility. No vet will take us because they're not taking new clients so we're taking him to an emergency hospital being that it's a Friday now. We have already made arrangements to transfer his care to a different vet going forward as this is unacceptable.

The entire team here was helpful, kind and compassionate. They walked me through the tests they recommended, the costs, etc. and performed the tests and shared the results efficiently. My cat was showing signs of improvement within 12 hours of being seen at VCA and by a week later, was still improving in leaps and bounds (literally). Dahlia and I are so grateful for this hospital and I now drive 1+ hours past other vet clinics and hospitals so I can receive this care for my cat. Thank you!
