I found a kitten on the side of the road after it ran across the road in front of my truck. I stopped and got it because I was worried it would get hit by a vehicle. It was very tiny, young, and in pretty bad shape. It had a cold, eye infection, worms, and pretty dirty. I didn't see any other cats around or any houses....no idea how it got out by the road. Anyway, I tried calling my veterinary office and they said they couldn't get the kitten in to be seen for over a month. So, I started to look for a different vet and found Faithful Friends.....I called and they worked us into their busy schedule the next morning. They were very nice and took care of the kitten. Explained everything, and sent us home with some medicine. Coco Puff is doing well now and playing like a kitty.

I absolutely LOVE FAITHFUL FRIENDS. I refer every pet parent I know to them! I first started bringing my baby, Nugget, to FFVH about 12 years ago and Dr. Heath and staff have provided consistent, over the top service. I had adopted Nugget after his previous owner passed away. Nugget had a plethora of allergies and health concerns. He also had past trauma and anxiety which made him more challenging to work with than most dogs, but the staff at Faithful Friends met that challenge with love and a smile every single visit. When it came time to help Nugget peacefully transition due to his health and old age, their care of him, and me was beyond words. I’ll never forget that day and all they did to comfort me during the process and the sentimental gifts they provided me with to keep as a memory of him. Now I have 2 new puppies, Psalm and Onyx, who I bring to Faithful Friends. The staff love on them as their own and take great care of them. They’ve been coming to them since 8 weeks of age for vaccinations and checkups, and have recently been neutered at FFVH. I’m a very cautious pet parent who asks lots of questions and I’m very mindful about who I entrust my babies to, but I trust Faithful Friends 100% to know what’s best and provide the best quality of care. They truly feel like family! If you’re wondering where to take your pet, this is the place!!

Our dog is family. She is our heart, and I wouldn't trust her care to anyone else. Bella is a little "high maintenance"; she doesn't enjoy being in the back with the other dogs barking, so they accommodate her by letting her sit up front with the receptionist. She doesn't like to have her nails clipped, but they are very patient with her, and find different ways to make her comfortable. They are very understanding with her, because what worked last visit, may not work this visit. I also took my mother's cat to Faithful Friends for a second opinion, and while the cat had a condition that couldn't be cured, Dr. Heath gave him another 6 months of happiness with my mom. It may be a little more expensive than other options, but how much is your family's care worth? I know when i go to Faithful Friends, that every option available is offered to me. I know that Bella is in good hands, and I don't worry about her when I drop her off. Paying a little extra is worth it to have peace of mind and know that your babies are taken care of in the same way you care for them. I also highly recommend the grooming service. You are given a chance to specify exactly what you want for your fur baby. The groomer is very patient also, and usually meets me afterwards to let me know how the visit went. Bella loves Dr. Heath and the other employees at the practice. We are about to adopt another puppy, and her visits will be with Dr. Heath as well.
