We took our 16 year old dog to them, she was having diabetic seizures. We knew she needed to be euthanized. The nighttime staff was wonderfully compassionate and caring, allowing us time to say goodbye and hold her till she passed. This is the hardest part of a vet's job and we want to tell them thank you and God bless you in all you do.

We're glad we could be there for you and appreciate your endorsement of the care we've provided.
Dr McArdell, Donna,Regina,Teddi... all wonderful. They saved my babies life. Wish I would have went straight to them instead of 4 trips to my vet (which literally made things worse due to misdiagnosis). I was hysterical and they were so kind, thorough, professional, caring and competitant. (From Gus the golden retrievers mom)
Our vet sent us here when our dog got very sick. They got us right in. We were obviously a wreck and they took good care of us. Our French Bulldog needed an immediate blood transfusion and had to stay over night for that and for some testing. We requested they call us when they got the results and sure enough, we got phone calls and updates all through the night. Some of the results were not good and the vet was reassuring and gave us a clear path forward. We had complete trust in them. Our dog was transferred the next day t... read more
We took our dog into Animal ER Care N. Nevada because he had been hit by a car. He had massive lacerations of his back left hind quarter and couldn't walk. Dr. McArdell was the doctor who examined my dog, and she ordered x-rays only for his back legs and abdomen. He was diagnosed with a hip dislocation and was treated for hip lacerations with over 30 stitches. He was assisted in walking out in a hip sling because they couldn't get his hip back into place, and he walked out on his two front legs. Over the course of four days... read more

Angie - Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. When traumas occur, there is always the possibility of injuries being masked because of shock and other more significant injuries. The severity of the trauma to the body is even sometimes delayed by hours-to-days, such as lung contusions and damage to internal organs. These are some of the reasons why our emergency veterinarians recommend hospitalization when patients experience blunt force trauma. I'm saddened Tig was walking on his limb without an external s... read more
If I could give zero stars, I would. I brought my dog in just around 6:30 PM with a deep gash in his ear that was bleeding! By 2 AM, we were still waiting to be seen. When I arrived I was told it would be about 2 hours. Around 8:30 PM, I was told we were next, but nothing happened. Around midnight, I asked again, desperate for someone to at least help clean the wound to prevent infection. Instead, I was told nothing could be done until a doctor saw him. They kept telling me "another hour" but nothing. We were finally put in... read more

I'm extremely disappointed with the service I received at this Animal ER. My pet's emergency situation was handled extremely poorly, and I felt like the doctor and staff was extremely judgmental. I went here for complications from my dog's surgery and they didn't really address what we went in for. The communication from the staff was very unclear. I had to ask multiple times for updates on my pet's condition, and even then, I didn't get the information I needed. The doctor/staff came in and was very shocked we had surgery... read more

IF YOU LOVE YOUR PET DONT GO HERE! The owner is a joke. She talks down to you and treats you like a POS! She called me a liar and they refused to give my dying dog pain meds so that I could say goodbye. This place took my goodbye from me!!! Just read the bad reviews there are so many negative reviews it's not even funny and they are all true. They refused to take hair from my baby saying I should have already done that. One lady told me they took the hair and lost it. This owner just lied to me yelled at me and was so unprof... read more

I have always gotten the best care from this service. You helped me give my 23 year old cat a quiet sleep instead of suffering. This cat was miserable and you have helped him eat much better, he beside me now, purring... All the docs and techs have been so kind and calm. It helped me keep steady while we worked for a solution. While the wait was long, the care given was excellent.
