All clean! Thanks Judy for taking such good care of our boy!
Bobby M.

Great staff, knowledgeable and caring doctors, excellent groomer! We have multiple dogs we take to Walker Vet and have been very happy with their services. They are always friendly and seem to really care about the animals. In fact we moved all our dogs from a vet in Manteca to Walker in Stockton even though we now need to drive 30 min to get there! Worth the miles for such a great vet hospital. They also have grooming services!

I brought in an injured stray dog on 10/8 and paid $75, hoping he would receive basic triage. Instead, I was quoted over $2,000 just for diagnostics, and offered "free euthanasia as a Good Samaritan discount." While I wasn't pressured, euthanasia was presented as the only realistic option. No pain medication, wound cleaning, or stabilization was provided. Thankfully I found help through the Bradshaw shelter in Sacramento, where the same dog was stabilized, given pain medication, and scheduled for x-rays. He is recovering - proving he was not "hopeless" as I was led to believe here. I wish this clinic had shown more compassion by offering affordable middle-ground options, even just basic pain relief or triage imaging. Pet owners deserve to know their choices without feeling cornered.

My cat had some symptoms and I was very concerned about getting her seen today (Friday). I was going out of town on Saturday morning and I needed to make sure she was OK. My REGULAR VET's office closes at 5:30 on Fridays. I drove over there and they were closed and I felt angry. I called the office and the voice mail said the close at 5:30. I was angry because I was so worried and felt they should have left a voice message indicating they were closed. I knew about WALKER VETERINARY HOSPITAL from some friends of mine. They've always had good results there so I drove over there at 3:45. I had an no appointment, but they were very, very nice and said we'll take care of you and kitty. A very kind and helpful vet tech, Janelle, took me back to the room. She was very knowledgeable, she asked me questions and I explained my kitty symptoms. My cat really liked her. She was super gentle. The veterinarian came and examined my kitty and asked me all sorts of questions, Janelle came back with a list of tests. She explained each of the tests again and costs. There were a few I didn't think necessary at this point because I wanted to see what the results of the bloodwork would be, and I felt no pressure or judgment about my decision. My cat was still eating and drinking normally. When I was done, Janelle came back and walked me out to the front and gave me some more information. I have to say during my whole experience with Janelle , she was very lighthearted and friendly. Everyone I came in contact with at the office was friendly and I felt confident in Walker Vet's expertise. Debbie

So to begin the story last year I went to walkers vet for the first time they screwed me and my husband over and then I did end up going back to them to give them a second chance because I don't drive and I live down the street from them anyway when I brought in my sick dog In the manger saw that I was there and saw my review on them I posted she said if I didn't take it down she would not service me and help so I took it down but here I am again I went in last night to get an estimate on how much I would need to my dog to get stitches because she ripped open her spay surgery area the girl working last night was disrespectful to me and got mad at me because I didn't understand what she was saying I have high anxiety when I'm in crowded rooms so the waiting room was full anyway the girl was so rude and yelled at me well I'm trying to understand what she was saying and I hade an appointment to bring in my new 9 week old kitten that I got from someone that is not eating or drinking and he is breathing funny so anyway when I was leaving last night I told the girl un know what I'll take her somewhere else cancel my appointment for my dog and well I was walking out I was upset because she said good dont ever come back so I did say the b word when I went out the door well long story short the manger was hella rude and was telling me that she is no long going to help me or my animals anymore and find somewhere else she is basically saying how her workers treat people with disabilities are ok and that the person that has the disability (me ) is not allow to express their worries and it's ok for there workers to do what they did to me and get away with it but Im the one that was in the wrong never go there they will over charge u and scam u and they with threaten u if u write a review they don't like they won't help u anless u delete it just look at the picture I added that dog is my life line she is my service dog and thanks to another vet she is ok and the kitten is badly sick u can tell I am also taking him to a vet at 2;30 pm today this is why u should not go to walker vet

Eye on the left in the photo is the damaged eye. Dr. Singh and his colleague totally saved Maya's right eye vs. having it removed.
Boni H.

Brought in our husky/rott mix Maya with a hole poked in her eye (probably by my rose bushes). Dr. Singh was gentle, thorough, and came up with a solution that was less expensive than removing the eye, and saved the eye. Not only did the procedure save the eye, she actually has some peripheral vision as far as we can tell. I wouldn't take my sick dog anywhere else. I was so pleased with his care each time, and the time he took to examine her and really figure out a good solution. God bless all of them.

Memorial Card from Walker Vet.

My 13 year old GSD woke up in horrible shape, I panicked and called numerous vets in my area. Walker Vet made time to get her in within an hour. I knew it was time for her to cross the Rainbow Bridge. The staff were all really nice. I wish I had gotten the vets name but I was a total wreck. He was absolutely kind and gentle with Zoey in her last moments. He was patient and comforting with me. I walked out in tears, but I knew it was the best thing for her. When it comes to emergencies prices aren't everything but not only were they able to get her in the soonest, they also had the most reasonable price for the service to help her cross. I couldn't afford a special package with the extras but today something showed up in the mail. It was a card from Walker Vet with Zoey's paw and nose print. Such a thoughtful and kind gesture.

LaLa. Few weeks after appointment feeling so much better

See all

This is actually a review from last october 2024 that I forgot to put a review in. I had posted A…read moreNot so happy. Review in 2023. But I had found out that the manager, who was always there happened to be on vacation. The week we left our dogs and whatever staff was there. Did not do what they are supposed to do to take care of my dog at the time. But in 2024, we dropped our dogs off and the manager, and another long time the staff member was there and they took excellent care of our 2 dogs as they normally had done in the past several years. Except for that one year when the manager was gone. Her and her son were great.I know the son left and went to another vet office. I feel bad because I cannot remember their names as I write this post.But the regular clientele would know who i'm talking about in this review Anyway, I'm going to miss them. I was sad to find out that the veterinarian, who owned the hotel and the vet office retired.And sold everything to the city of stockton. I hope that the staff does read this post and know that they are going to be dearly missed by us.And i'm sure many others

They gave over night for pets and we had our dog there…read more They gave him the meds he needed as far as we know. He seemed fine when when picked him up although there was no info regarding his stay, if he was ok, or a problem . I would use again if needed but it would be nice to know his status getting along at the facility

Absolutely blown away by Pet Magic - Gaby is a grooming superstar!…read moreI brought my dog in for the first time today and had the pleasure of having Gaby as our groomer. From the moment we walked in, she took the time to sit with me, explain every step of the process, and ask questions to make sure she understood exactly what I wanted and, more importantly, what would keep my dog comfortable and happy. You can instantly tell this isn't just a job for her - grooming is her passion and she truly cares about every pet that comes through the door. When I picked my girl up... I honestly almost didn't recognize her (in the best way possible!). Her coat has NEVER been this soft and fluffy. My previous groomer must have only been brushing the surface because Gaby got all the way down to the skin and removed every bit of undercoat. The difference is night and day - she feels like a cloud! They finished her off with the cutest little bows and a sweet feather hair extension that just made her look like an absolute princess. I'm officially a Pet Magic customer for life. Gaby treated my dog like her own and gave us the best grooming experience we've ever had. If you're looking for someone who genuinely loves what they do and delivers stunning results, book with Gaby at Pet Magic. You (and your pup) will thank me later!

I arrived early for my dog's appointment to find that the neighborhood was rougher than expected…read more There was road construction in front of the business blocking what appeared to be the one and only spot for street parking. As I headed down the side street of auto shops and junkyards mixed in with rundown late 20th century homes I began to brood. I found a spot to park and waited a few minutes until it was closer to my appointment time. Just as I exited my car, I saw a huge, loose German Shepherd walking near the back of my car. I stood and watched as he sauntered westward down Worth Street causing the myriad of dogs along the way, chained in yards and in cages and running loose in yards, to explode in barking, growling, jumping aggression towards him. Think of the Fresh Fish scene in Shawshank redemption. The shepherd was completely unphased. I waited for him to reach California before taking my 15lb dog out of the car. We walked very quickly down the middle of the street to our own chorus of maniacal barking and rushed inside the California Cat and Dog Hospital. When the door closed behind me, I attempted a deep breath of relief but the smell of ammonia, and other unknown and unpleasant odors, began immediately burning my nostrils. My disillusionment was growing rapidly as I walked up to the front counter and gave my name an appointment time. I looked to my left and saw a bulletin board with a photo of Dr. Kim that had a quote from him saying "Every pet that comes into the clinic is my pet!" and I immediately started to feel better. After a few minutes, his son Dr. John brought us back and I explained why we were there and what we needed. I noticed immediately that he was very kind and attentive. He actually physically examined my dog and listened to her chest and back with his stethoscope. He walked us through our options and was instead of presenting us with an estimate listing every fee, he advised us the approximate cost and was willing to be flexible with blood tests and some exams that weren't absolutely necessary at the moment because he understands they can be costly. We decided to to everything he advised regardless of cost and he was able to take our pup in and take care of her. When she started to come out of anesthesia, the staff called us and we were able to get there right away to pick her up. We were very surprised at the affordable cost, even with all the of things that were done. We also asked for pain medication for her and were given a little to take home at no extra cost. We could not have been happier with the care we received at California Dog & Cat Hospital! This place is so great that it was suggested we keep it to ourselves, but there can be no gatekeeping, especially with care like this so I had to write this review. I realize it is lengthy and possibly overly descriptive, but I think it was important because if you are willing to endure the location and the smells, you will be rewarded with gentle, affordable care for your fur babies. P.S. I logged in to write this on Feb 12 and they have updated/notified yelp that they will be closed (Lunar New Year). Most businesses can't even be bothered to put in their correct regular hours on the site so it's just another reminder of the thoughtfulness of the doctors here. I am so happy we found this place.
