Thank you❤️Melissa GMelissa G ★★★★★ I love the staff here so much. They’re always so kind and understanding and while my cat may not like it here, I always know he’ll get the best care. He has a history of urinary issues and every time I call, the staff always works with me to figure out the best solution and I’ve never had to wait more than a day to get him in and checked out.Mackenzie S.Mackenzie S. ★★★★★ Harley had diarrhea twice for staff..SORRYFranced N.Franced N. ★★★★★ My senior dog was referred to this clinic for an ultrasound and the staff here were outstanding!

Both of our cats, Maynard and Lilith, have been patients, and the staff has been so accommodating for each visit. They're always quick to fit us in—but we never feel rushed when we arrive. Everyone who's cared for us and our cats over the years has been kind and compassionate.We unfortunately had to say goodbye to our beloved elderly cat last week, and I can't express how sweet yet helpfully direct Dr. Brown and her team were throughout the intake, decision, and euthanasia process. Their empathy was exceptional. They were gentle with us and our sweet boy Maynard (pictured), giving us plenty of time and space to say our goodbyes and begin the grieving process. Saying farewell to our furry family members is heartwrenching, but Dr. Brown and the vet techs and staff supported us through every step. Huge thanks to the team that helped us that day.MandiMandi ★★★★★ Everyone is always so kind, accommodating, and patient, especially with our one dog who is terrified to be there.

The staff and doctor were all great. They took good care of our puppy! We would definitely recommend to a friend.

Veronica G.

I always feel better that my babies are getting the best care after they are looked at from these doctors.

Denise D.

Mayde Creek Animal Center was just amazing. It was my first time admitting Daisy whom needed surgery near her paw due to her nail, and Dr. Green as well as the Vet Tech were quick and fixed the problem. They definitely treated Daisy as if she was their dog. Daisy is now all happy running around the backyard as I write this. Thank you Dr. Greene and all the caring Associates!

Dr. Williams and his staff at Mayde Creek Animial Heath Center are all wonderful. They were all so friendly and explained everything in detail as to how they were going treat my dog’s dental issues. They called the following day to check on her. The prices are reasonable and the service was great.

Friendly staff and nice service. I’m very picky where I take my dog because I used to work at a vet myself, but Mayde Creek exceeded my standards by treating my dog very good.
