Plaza Del Amo has been our family vet for almost 20 years and have cared for 6 dogs for us. Everyone has always been kind, compassionate, & helpful. The Doctors, techs, and front office staff are passionate about animals & I’ve never met anyone there I didn’t like or didn’t have a good feeling about. The office is clean (as clean as possible considering all of the cats & dogs in there throughout the day), the staff is friendly, check out is fast & super convenient, and communication with them is super convenient as they have a text feature now. We consider our dogs as part of our family & we’ve only ever felt confident about bringing our pups here. Best Vet & Boarding facility in the South Bay.

I’ve taken my dogs to Plaza Del Amo for more than 20 years. All the vets have been great. Dr. Childs has been our Aussie’s vet for the past 8 years. She is Kind, Compassionate and Smart. She takes her time, listens and treats my boy like he’s her own. I highly recommend Dr Child’s.

Very good personal service for my Vet visit. Dr. Child was very compassionate and caring when discussing boarding with them. She also gave me a Quality of Life assessment for my diabetic cat. Would recommend to anyone.

This was for grooming: Jessica was wonderful for up pup!! He was a DISASTER. Our last groomer moved, we moved and I hadn't found a new person yet. Then our dog injured himself and I didn't want to get him groomed till I knew he wasn't in pain. Well, his double coat got crazy out of control, and then his allergies started acting up because summer, and we were constantly picking burs out of his feet (which he hates) because of the crazy hair that grows between his digits (which he has had to have grass seed foreign bodies removed from his paws twice at the vet since moving to CA). Sigh, just a complete mess. She was able to shave him down and get him back to good and he came home happy and wasn't stressed from the experience (even though I'm sure it wasn't easy for either of them). He just seems so much more comfortable and I can care for him more easily now. Just really appreciate what a great job she did getting my old man back in shape and comfortable again. Can't thank her enough :-)

We've found our new vet! I was fed up with not being able to accompany my dogs inside. Why should I have to wait in the car instead of being a comforting presence to my frightened pets? At Plaza Del Amo, we were welcomed inside (although some owners preferred to wait in their cars) and were able to speak face-to-face with the vet and other staff. It was heavenly! Everyone was very friendly, the prices seemed fair, and they patiently answered all my questions. I will definitely be recommending them to friends!
