What our pet parents are saying

"I wish we had found this place sooner! The whole team was so kind and patient with our cat and made both he and I feel so comfortable. It was clear throughout the appointment their priority was what was best for the animal, not whatever got us in and out fastest. I could not have been happier with the care we received! Highly recommend to all :)"

Laney B.

"Very compassionate staff. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a new vet clinic. Took great care of my dog and even gave me some advice on how to keep him in even better health and recommended an affordable healthy food for me to use for his sensitive stomach."

Chris J.

"Very caring people. Knowledgeable, great with dogs, kind, patient (Especially with frantic fur moms!), and reasonable. This doctor Immediately got down on the floor to be at eye-level with a very scared dog. She won my Alice over!"

Jane C.

"We switched to METROVET and have been very happy! The doctors and all staff are very patient, knowledgeable and caring. Their pricing is also quite reasonable. The location is great and they have free parking. So it easy to give them 5 stars. I would recommend giving them a try!"

QUICK VET TIPS

When wildlife emerges in the spring, so do our parasites like ticks, fleas, and GI parasites.

How to be prepared?

✓ Ensure your pet is protected with a broad spectrum flea/tick/heartworm preventative.
✓ Add a Seresto collar for those heavy tick areas like the Cape and Islands.
✓ Make sure Lyme and Leptospirosis vaccines are up to date.
✓ Bring in a fecal sample for parasite tests to ensure no deworming is needed.
