Dr Rizk is a very caring vet, he is straight forward with his recommendations for care. I am pleased to hear he is also involved in the care of shelter animals!!

This is one of the very few boarding or pet hotels that can take in a large dog. I have a great Dane so it's nice to know he is not crammed into a smaller kennel. The staff is friendly and they have qualified vets on staff as it's also a veterinary clinic. Now this brings me to the actually kennels. It is worth checking out for the mini furniture in each kennel to accommodate different pets; some with tv's. It's hysterical. Last, they board dogs on one side of the building and cats on the other to reduce stress. What do I not LOVE about this place. Read Less

Look, taking your animal to the vet always seems to be a hassle. Am I getting ripped off? Is this vet qualified? Is my animal actually getting better? I had no doubt the first time we brought our dogs to Dr. Rizk. His diagnosis were on point and we didn't get gouged. He made sure we knew everything he was doing and answered all our questions. My fiancé and I own 6 dogs and have a family of 10+ animals having a vet like Dr. Rizk is amazing. Oh and the boarding facility soooo cool! Do yourself a favor bring your babies here. Read Less

Great! Staff and Vet! I've brought my dog her several times for grooming and day boarding. Most recently my dog had a case of pancreatitis and Dr. Rizk did a great job! He was patient and informative.

Wow!!! Dr. Rizk is exceptional. He went above and beyond in helping my ailed Juju. He gave me expertise advise in helping prolong his life and allowing him to enjoy it as well. He was very comforting when we finally lost him to heart failure. I just got a new puppy and he's very comfortable with the doctor and staff already. The staff is very caring, polite, and friendly. I've used other pet hotels before but none compare to the luxury, comfort, cleanliness of this one. A++ across the board!!! Read Less

From regular checkups, to ensuring each one has their proper vaccinations, Dr. Rizk and his staff provide the upmost care for our pets. Dr. Rizk was able to quickly diagnose a urinary tract infection in our pug and provide us with recommendations on dietary changes to speed up her healing process. Dr. Rizk is knowledgeable, compassionate and always attentive to our needs, we couldn't be happier with his care. Read Less

Dr Rizk has been seeing my GSDs since 2010 at his last place. He was the only one who figured out how to get rid of my beloved Hunter's fungus on his left front paw and it never came back. I lost him at 13 1/2 y/o in 2012 and I'm forever grateful to Dr Rizk because I had him for 3 more years....he did my female's spay, a removal of a benign tumor on one of her teats, plus a surgery on her tail due to a accident. And he's been my 5 y/o male's only doctor.... and I m so happy that he let me know where he went. Bitsi and I got to see the facility as we are were there today and Jimmy will be in for his check up next week. I wish you all the best in your new place Dr Rizk! Read Less
