I’d definitely recommend this place. We’ve taken our pups here to be fixed, for preventative & urgent care, as well as grooming. They don’t overcharge or try to sell you a bunch of unnecessary stuff, and they’re thorough. The lady running the front desk is good at following up too.

Addendum to review below written a week ago: I've done what I consider much reading and learning about cats, and believe I have a better understanding of why my little kitty cat Charlie (I called him FreshKitty) passed so suddenly. I won't go into it all, but I do understand more now. Charlie was a short black hair domestic male rescue kitty set to be euthanized when our neighbor who is much involved in rescue pets. I mean we got him like the day he was about to be put down. He had herpes when we got him at around a month old. He lived about 6.5 years. Apparently cats can quit eating and drinking for things as minor as having a toothache. Point is they are complex animals. I hold no ill will against Ansede's. It was just so sudden and we were close. He would climb on me and groom/knead my hair. We were tight. The sudden dying is not uncommon in cats. Sorry to be long winded. Hope the info helps someone else is all. In contrast, we had a dog and she had a long life and we had plenty of time to prepare, but not with my little kitty. Life lesson learned. Thank you. I don't know why my kitty cat, Charlie, died....why he suddenly stopped eating and drinking at around 5-6 years of age. Took him in, he was chubby at nearly 18lbs. He gotta a bunch of shots and something called 'the banana' syringe. We changed his diet using same food...Purina One Indoor Advantage... but at 1/4 cup every 12 hours. He's not happy off the get go but adapts and loses weight and returns to more of his old self...playful, more energy. After about two weeks of that we get lime green vomit and no more eating, followed soon by no drinking of water. Take him back..more shots for nausea. He stopped the green vomit but never ate again no matter what we did. It got to where he couldn't walk without falling over. Take him back to have him put down. I don't know what caused my cat to stop eating and drinking. It wasn't diabetes because we were told he didn't have diabetes. He was young and playful, and even when he was chubby, he was playful. We learned about the 1/4 cup twice a day and it was going so well. I will never understand. Purely indoor cat...no other pets.
