I've only brought my baby girl here twice so far, but the vet here has been amazing with her. I have a spaniel who I consider my daughter, she is just the sweetest, most affectionate little thing and is the best family dog. That said, not everyone sees my little girl with the same rose colored glasses I do. She has anxiety issues, she always has. I watch people with her, some get annoyed and impatient. The two times I've come here I've been more than impressed with how gentle and patient they are with my little Sophie. The first time I came here the vet even got down on the floor with her to examine her, so she wouldn't have the stress of being on a table. THAT is good care, when the vet puts the dog's comfort above their own. We came again last week because it was time for Sophie's teeth to be cleaned. I had been using Harris Hill vet mostly since we moved here a year ago. I was going to have them clean Sophie's teeth but then I was told I would have to schedule an appointment just to get a price quote from Harris Hill. "Wait. I need to pay money just to get a price quote so I can pay more money?". I've never had a vet tell me that before. I asked for a round about price quote to find what range their teeth cleanings typically cost, to see if it was even worth paying for the price quote appointment. It was high. I've been getting my dog's teeth cleanings for years, mostly in the Seattle area where everything always cost more. Harris Hill was more than Seattle's high costs! Anyhow, I'm glad I called True Care before I had the Harris Hill appointment, they were able to give me a general price quote over the phone very easily. And their price was much more in line with what I think a canine tooth cleaning should cost. So Sophie came here for that. Sophie got her teeth cleaned and it was easy-breezy beautiful. No surprises, they got the job done and the final cost was actually a bit less than the original estimate. She got good care and it was affordable. Where they really sold me though and the reason I plan to come here in the future for all of our vet needs is they have an after hours cell phone number for their clients until 11pm. That means if Sophie came home and around 9pm she was acting funny, I could have called and they would have walked me through it. THAT is a HUGE deal! I also saw something in their office that caught my eye, and that was that they will sometimes do home visits. I presume that means when your animal has met their final days and you'd rather have them done at home than bring them in to the office. I saw that and I was like, "DING DING DING!". Sophie isn't going anywhere for years to come, but when her time does come I would much rather have a vet that knows her come to our house to do it. I could be wrong and they don't do that as a home service, but I hope they do. This place reminds me of our old vet's office in WA we really liked. They just seem honest and like they really care about the well being of animals. They have an office cat, I didn't catch their name. I like when places have an office cat to greet people. My Sophie loves cats but it will be interesting when I bring my other dog here. He's a little napoleon type dog who hates cats. I'll keep him on a short leash and I'm sure the cat is smart enough to avoid yippy little dogs who like to bark a lot.If you are looking for an honest vet who keeps their priced affordable, this is the place for you.
