WHAT CAN I EXPECT AT VEG?

When you take your pet to VEG, you’ll be seen by a veterinarian right away, even before filling out paperwork. We’ll even meet you at your car if you need help bringing in your pet.

No one wants to take their fur baby to the ER, but if you ever have to, I highly recommend VEG. All of the staff were amazing, especially Ant who assisted us and the doctor! Dr. Dietz was our attending doctor and she was highly knowledgeable, thorough and answered all of our questions with patience. The entire staff were very kind and caring throughout the entire process. I had a follow up question and called a couple days later. The doctor answering was just as nice and helpful as everyone at our original visit. Thank you to VEG for taking such good care of our kitty and providing the best experience!

Absolutely the best place to bring your pets! The staff at VEG ER for Pets were incredibly sweet, gentle, and compassionate with my kitten. We were in a really tough spot financially they charged $300, but all we had was $40, and they still took care of him without hesitation. I’ve never seen such kindness and professionalism. They made a scary situation so much easier and really put my kitten’s comfort first. Highly recommend this clinic to anyone they truly care about your pets!

I can’t say enough great things about this animal hospital. From the moment I walked in, the staff treated both me and my dog with so much care, compassion, and professionalism. They truly went above and beyond to make sure my dog was comfortable and well taken care of, taking the time to explain everything and answer all my questions without ever making me feel rushed. It’s clear that they genuinely love what they do and care deeply about the animals they treat. They didn’t just focus on the medical side—they made sure I felt supported and reassured throughout the entire experience as well. That kind of kindness and dedication means everything when you’re worried about your pet. I’m incredibly grateful for the level of care we received and would highly recommend this animal hospital to anyone looking for a team that truly goes the extra mile.
