🐾Tips for Pet Owners
- If your pet is reactive, anxious, or blind, mention it when booking—the team has been praised for accommodating and gentle handling.
- For urgent issues, call early; reviewers were often fit in the same day or even late in the afternoon when needed.
- If you don’t get through right at opening or via the web form, try calling again later or follow up in person.
- Discuss estimates in advance; several owners found pricing reasonable and even below quoted amounts in some cases.
- For after-hours emergencies, expect higher fees, but note that reviewers reported prompt care and proactive follow-up calls.
