Vca Big Lake Animal Hospital
Wasilla, Alaska
General Info
VCA Big Lake Animal Hospital in Wasilla conducts veterinary sessions by navigating a sensory map that begins at comfort entry points before progressing into deeper diagnostic zones for pets throughout Alaska. Every session starts by observing pets' spatial awareness: noticing their exploration patterns, zone avoidance, and pace adjustment speed. The clinic team initiates patient evaluation by examining body-system cues starting with fur density and external touch tolerance before progressing to assessments of oral health, joint range, and abdominal flexibility. Owner observations are factored in with equal weight: recent stalling before stairs changes in how the animal sleeps or guards objects or shifts in interaction timing with household members. VCA Big Lake Animal Hospital offers medical mapping services which involve complex orthopedic planning alongside cardiovascular listening techniques and hydration tracking methods while performing dermatological checks and immune calibration to monitor energy-rest cycles. Medical procedures follow an organized structure to ensure recovery periods are respected by splitting even short diagnostic steps to avoid cumulative stress. Animal responses to specific thresholds dictate adjustments in noise levels, scent layering, and personnel proximity. Post-care recommendations depend on behavioral landmarks including the time pets take to reach their normal state again the spots they choose for refuge at home and the way their social interactions either resume or pause. Support mechanisms persist via visual touchpoint documentation combined with optional sensory behavior analysis sessions. VCA Big Lake Animal Hospital delivers veterinary care to Wasilla and surrounding Alaskan areas by interpreting each pet visit as a series of movement-based experiences, where they read the pet’s signals at every stage from check-in through each room, posture, and pause.

We brought our 9 week old puppy here for a vaccination booster. They do not permit you in with your dog, because of their Covid policy. While they clearly place their own health and wellbeing as a top priority, the same cannot be said of how they treat your pet. When they came out of the visit they said the puppy “lunged, growled and snapped” and would have to be sedated at a future visit. This people who work at this vet office clearly have no understanding of how to deal with puppies and ensure they are calm and comfortable before implementing any kind of exam, shot, etc. It’s pretty basic behavioral stuff that they should know. If the dog was exhibiting fearful behavior didn’t it cross their mind to stop the exam? Why not? They were then so engrossed in informing my husband of her behavior that they also failed to answer other basic questions he had. Because he was not allowed in we have absolutely no clue what happened and how she was treated. There is zero transparency. Our puppy which had been happy and easy going became completely fearful and out of sorts for the rest of the day. Her experience here has most likely given our dog a forever fear of vets and who knows what else. If you have a puppy you would be best served to visit a veterinarian who lets you accompany your animal, and also who shows knowledge and understanding of puppy behavior, and how to deal with them to create a positive and fear free environment. If you are a puppy owner I also urge you to educate yourself on puppy learning processes and fear windows that open and what can happen during these periods. This vet clearly has not done so. I am so incredibly regretful that we ever visited Big Lake VCA. What did you people do to our sweet dog???

VCA Big Lake has been taking care of my pets for many years now. I have cats of my own, and when I've had foster cats who've needed care (including emergency care), the staff has been completely awesome. Sadly, I most recently had to have one of my beloved cats, Boo-Boo, euthanized. Their newest veterinarian, Dr. Kidder, was very kind and gentle with my kitty and me. I love that they built that "crying room" which is comfortable and non-clinical where you can hold your fur-baby as they are sent over the rainbow bridge. This is the 2nd time I've had to use them for this purpose, and both times, the staff has shown such wonderful compassion. They even have an electric candle on the counter in the waiting room that is lit, with a sign letting folks in the waiting area know that someone is saying goodbye to their pet and to please be respectful and quiet, (or something to that effect...I was crying so I don't remember exactly how it was worded). When I got there, I told Erica at the front desk (she's awfully wonderful), that I wanted the vet techs and veterinarians present to see Boo-Boo (who was 19 years old), and see what crippling effects declawing a cat have on them as they get older. Erica informed me that they refuse to declaw cats, or to do any of the other maiming procedures (docking of ears/tails). If it was possible, this clinic went up even higher in my estimation. This proves, to me, that they are more about humane and compassionate care for our non-human family members than they are about making a profit off doing unnecessary convenience or cosmetic surgeries. Thank you, VCA Big Lake.

This vet clinic did an amazing job on my doggie’s teeth. His teeth were very gross and covered with buildup. Now he had a movie star doggie smile! Dr. K did such a good job. Sorry, I don’t know how to spell this vet’s last name, but she’s great and understands rural pets. My dogs are from a village and have a more cautious temperament, but Dr. K was great with both of my shy dogs. So glad there is a vet office around that understands that not everyone out here is a millionaire, but we still love our pets. Prices are reasonable and they are very honest about telling you if a service is optional. Not like some other money grubbing vet clinics I have been to where the estimated make my eyeballs pop out and I have to feel like a grinch with my doggie’s care. Big lake is super understanding about pet owners needing to keep costs down so they can access services for their pets. Thanks!!!

Everywhere was booked or I would have to drop him off but luckily big lake was open. I brought him in and they were so kind as soon as we walked in. I had some x-rays sent over and Dr. fisher wasn't sure about the x-rays so asked opinions of other doctors. She also went above and beyond for us making sure he would be okay. She did such a great job. Also on top of that they sent a thank you card to me afterwards, super nice! Big Lake vet is our new go to vet! ( I had to write this on my brothers account haha)

I took our injured rabbit in for treatment. The doctor pulled all the stiches out (which didn't need to be pulled) and talked me in to doing a laser healing treatment on the open wound. The rabbit began to eat her open wound due to it being inflamed and open from the visit.
She is now in anchorage under 24 hour care and had to have an emergency procedure to reclose the wound. So not only am I out of the money I spent here, but I now am looking at a 2000 dollar bill or possible amputation of my rabbits leg.
Highly recommended that you avoid this vet.

He is the BEST. Wish there was someone half as great where I reside now, on the other side of this globe.
Dogs are normally reluctant to enter any clinic, but going to this one my setter always went happily straight to the desk, (particularly if Brenda was there!) paws up on it, ''hello, I have arrived!''. They know.

My first experience was when I brought in my older kitty who was very sick and I had to find out out she was having kidney failure and would ultimately need to be put down. The vet was so kind and compassionate and delivered the news in the most gentle way. She gave me the option of taking her home and coming back or doing it then. She also let me know I could have as much time as I needed with my kitty in the room before we made the final call. The vet truly made the process as easy on me as possible. I even later got a sympathy card in the mail, which I felt was truly above and beyond. They are a wonderful clinic. I really appreciated how they treated me in that time. My second visit with another kitty was a happier one just for a minor ear infection and got some meds. They are very professional and courteous, and I didn't find them to be expensive. I will definitely continue to use them!

This is one of the best and most professional vet clinics I have been too. The staff there is very helpful and open minded, and they always like to love on my dogs and give them plenty of cookies when I go there. I can't even begin to say enough good things about the veterinarians there. I have never had a problem with them trying to push their products on me or belittle me for the products I choose to use already. They're one of the few vets that doesn't believe in overvaccinating (Dr. Fisher suggested I get a blood test done on one of my dogs to find out if he even needed the vaccine before she gave it to him). When I was having trouble putting weight on my other dog she even suggested supplimenting some hamburger into his diet. Their offices are very clean and inviting, just like the staff that works there
