Firehouse Animal Health Center Westlake
Austin, Texas
General Info
Firehouse Animal Health Center Westlake provides veterinary services to Austin families and Texas residents through its pattern-based visit approach. Animals utilize predictable movements and consistent tone to navigate unfamiliar situations. The arrangement of appointment rooms follows a daily repetitive sequence where furniture placement, lighting setup, and entry point positions remain unchanged to eliminate superfluous decision-making tasks. The staff executes minimal voice modulation combined with restricted movement arcs and deliberate pauses between procedural transitions to facilitate pet adaptation. The management of odors receives high priority as scent neutralization occurs between visits to prevent sensory accumulation. According to their pet’s orientation pattern, owners have the option to position themselves either nearby or far away. Firehouse Animal Health Center Westlake delivers a range of services including diagnostic testing infection control joint health assessments nutritional modifications behavioral consultations and recovery monitoring. The presentation of services emerges through a dynamic flow instead of a static checklist. When an animal turns away or lowers its ears staff members work to re-establish familiar cues by repeating low-impact actions such as stroking the air or providing a tactile anchor like a towel or sleeve. The post-care protocols necessitate a rhythm-based reintegration process. Families receive instruction on maintaining stable morning routines post-procedure while learning to reduce household stimuli and employ soft ambient sounds for sleep cycle regulation. Instructions transcend simple prescriptions by incorporating environmental adjustments which assist pets in resuming their daily activities without disorientation. Firehouse Animal Health Center Westlake extends its veterinary services from Austin to nearby Texas communities using techniques that emulate natural animal regulation through gentle rhythm predictable space and low-noise decision-making.

We met Dr. Faught almost 20 years ago when he was at a different vet clinic and taking care of our sweet lab, Bumper. We loved him so much that when he opened his own clinic it was a no-brainer to follow him! Bumper lived to be 13 years old and has since gone to Heaven and now Dr. Faught and all of the amazing people at Firehouse take care of our sweet Aussie, Shiny! We will always go to Firehouse and we regularly recommend their services to friends and family. The facilities are amazing and they always make you feel like you're their only client.

I love this clinic! All the staff are very helpful, and the vets are very knowledgeable and devoted to caring for my fur babies. I have been able to get my dog in last minute when she's been ill, and the vets have been responsible and thorough without ordering unnecessary expensive or invasive tests. And they're great with my cat too! I've shopped around, and these guys are by far my number one choice.

After 11 years, my Jack Russell, Dewey, had pretty bad looking teeth. One Saturday morning, Dewey wasn't acting right, his face was swollen and he was bleeding from his mouth a little. I rushed him to Firehouse and we picked up antibiotics and pain pills and scheduled an appt. for early the following week. In the end, Dewey needed 14 teeth pulled. I felt like the worst person on the planet. I don't remember any names but it really doesn't matter because everyone I spoke to was amazing. The detailed receipt with pictures of Dewey's super clean teeth and xrays blew me away. Dewey rode home with his head on my shoulder and a couple of days later, I opened that bottle of wine that I was given for being a new customer. I will always trust my dogs to Firehouse! They could not have done anything better and the staff is very likeable!

The staff here is incredibly friendly and has been great with both my animals. They always get me in quickly when I need an appointment and I never have had to spend long waiting once I'm there. They are all very sweet and both my pets have had good experiences going and getting catnip and doggie treats. I've had other vets and can say Firehouse has been the best experience by far.

Firehouse Animal Hospital is, without a doubt, the best veterinary practice in Central Texas. In addition to their original location in Westlake, they now have locations in Kyle and Cedar Park.The staff is always incredibly nice, helpful and accommodating. They truly take time and care with our pets and make building relationships with their human and non-human patients a priority. Dr. Faught is a top notch veterinarian. He truly loves helping animals. His expertise and knowledge for pet health mixed with his friendly, comforting demeanor make him an asset to our family! Whether your pet needs a wellness checkup, you're a first time pet owner or you need advice about your pet's condition, I would try Firehouse Animal Hospital first!

We've always had great vets so our standards are high. Firehouse's professional, compassionate, and supportive care significantly raised those expectations.We ran to Firehouse for the first time because our beloved cat was sick. They quickly diagnosed that our cat's illness required emergency care. We simply couldn't afford that and were clearly distraught. They did everything in their power to help him and lower costs. They gave us fantastic advice and clear, fair pricing at each point so that we could make the best decisions for our little family. Because of the emergency nature of our situation, the vet even gave us her personal number so we could ask questions in her off-time. Their compassion in the face of the difficult and painful choice that we are facing has been such a comfort in a difficult time. I cannot recommend their office highly enough. From their friendly and empathetic staff to the veterinarians that go above and beyond. It's clear that the entire office prioritizes the well-being of their furry and human customers.

I recently moved to Austin and the only reason I picked this vet's office was because it had 5 stars...needless to say there is a reason they have 5 stars! The facility, vets, and staff are simply amazing!!! I work with dogs daily and I can tell that these people love what they do! I received a tour of the clinic, and was treated like I treat my own clients at work. My pets have only been there once and when I called for an appointment the staff already knew my pets! (Nice touch). Dr. Mozisek was very patient with my fussy cat, she was sure not to stress him out. They are the first clinic to actually listen to me too, which is really nice when you know how to handle your own pets. Not to mention free name tags for your pets, coffee (which was amazing) and a free bottle of wine with a cat exam! I highly recommend this place! #braggingrightsearned

I was outside their door at 7:30AM, panicking with my sick cat and no appointment and still I had one of the best experiences I've ever had with a veterinarian. They examined and admitted Kerouac and I was out the door (with an unreasonably good cup of coffee to go) by 8. The doctor personally called me three times during the day to update me on my cat's fever, and when I picked her up the next day her temperature was down to normal and I had a bottle of wine to celebrate.The price was reasonable and the staff seemed genuinely happy to be there. They were willing to work with my weird schedule and even though it was a long drive, the area is totally beautiful. Kerouac is feeling a lot better and the service from the Firehouse Animal Center staff was exceptional.

Our eight year old lab had never had an ear infection before, so when he kept scratching his ears, we thought he might have caught fleas from other dogs at the dog park. After a couple of flea baths, during the week, and no relief for his ears, I took off work early on a Friday afternoon, and we were running late due to a traffic jam on Westlake Drive! We got there right at closing time, but they welcomed us, and were so kind and considerate of my stressed out and suffering fur kid! They took a swab of both ears and, sure enough, he had a very severe ear infection in both ears. The staff was amazing and really put me at ease, and I even left with a bottle of red wine..which
is complimentary to all new customers! They give you a choice of red or white wine to take home with you. Affordable services, courteous and friendly staff who really care about your baby as much as you do!

My dog is terrified once taken into an exam room so they kindly met with him in the waiting room for the exam. He thought he was meeting my friends and it relaxed him.

We adopted a four month old Apollo complete with a broken leg and serious tummy problems as a result of malnutrition and scavenging. The vets at Austin Pets Alive! Had promised to treat these two conditions as a part of our adoption agreement but their resources are finite and they're a long way away so we registered with Firehouse on the recommendation of our neighbour.What a brilliant discovery. They took our scrawny, broken pup in their stride and made sensible, deft decisions about his care. As well as extremely helpful recommendations about his diet and his rehabilitation from his injuries. Both Dr. Harrison (who has sadly now left) and Dr. Faught are truly dog people who made us feel comfortable and very much in safe hands.The reception staff are delightful. The check in and out process is always easy. And they keep a card on file along with a signed release that I update so his sitter can bring him in for treatment if necessary while we're away.They are definitely not the cheapest option in Austin - and, particularly for routine shots, there are other places even I might chose to go. But they helped transform my furry cast wearing bag of bones into 65lbs of leaping glossy two year old and I wouldn't trust anyone else with his care.

The crew at Firehouse Animal Health Center are extremely friendly and helpful. This is my first time with a puppy and they were very open and happy to see us. The vet took care of my pup's eye infection. Since I had just moved to Austin the vet was soooo helpful, I could not afford heart warm prevention so she gave me a dose to last me until I got my dog insurance in a month. The care I received at the facility was exactly what I needed having just moved to a new place. They toured me around the facility witnessing a very clean, very efficient place of work. I wouldn't even begin to look for another place to take my dog.

I have literally never written a review online (thought I put this same review on yelp). I am one of those people who looks at reviews and uses them or research, but never actually puts the work in myself :). Anyway, I had to let people know how amazing this place is.
I have never been to a veterinarian where each person there is so positive, compassionate, and competent. My cat recently got very sick and they were amazing in caring for him and trying to find out what was wrong. In the end, our worst fears came true and we had to put my little man down. This was by far the most comfortable experience I have had with having to let a pet go, and I know the care my cat received was second to none. I am so happy I found this place and my cat had such a great place to leave this world in such a comfortable and dignified way.
The people REALLY care. I am actually astounded by how great they were, having had animals all my life and having seen different veterinarians around the country. Doctor Harrison is the best veterinarian I have ever had, and it's not even close.
If you live anywhere near this place, this is, without a doubt, where you want to go.

General Info
Firehouse Animal Health Center Westlake provides veterinary services to Austin families and Texas residents through its pattern-based visit approach. Animals utilize predictable movements and consistent tone to navigate unfamiliar situations. The arrangement of appointment rooms follows a daily repetitive sequence where furniture placement, lighting setup, and entry point positions remain unchanged to eliminate superfluous decision-making tasks. The staff executes minimal voice modulation combined with restricted movement arcs and deliberate pauses between procedural transitions to facilitate pet adaptation. The management of odors receives high priority as scent neutralization occurs between visits to prevent sensory accumulation. According to their pet’s orientation pattern, owners have the option to position themselves either nearby or far away. Firehouse Animal Health Center Westlake delivers a range of services including diagnostic testing infection control joint health assessments nutritional modifications behavioral consultations and recovery monitoring. The presentation of services emerges through a dynamic flow instead of a static checklist. When an animal turns away or lowers its ears staff members work to re-establish familiar cues by repeating low-impact actions such as stroking the air or providing a tactile anchor like a towel or sleeve. The post-care protocols necessitate a rhythm-based reintegration process. Families receive instruction on maintaining stable morning routines post-procedure while learning to reduce household stimuli and employ soft ambient sounds for sleep cycle regulation. Instructions transcend simple prescriptions by incorporating environmental adjustments which assist pets in resuming their daily activities without disorientation. Firehouse Animal Health Center Westlake extends its veterinary services from Austin to nearby Texas communities using techniques that emulate natural animal regulation through gentle rhythm predictable space and low-noise decision-making.

I love this clinic! All the staff are very helpful, and the vets are very knowledgeable and devoted to caring for my fur babies. I have been able to get my dog in last minute when she's been ill, and the vets have been responsible and thorough without ordering unnecessary expensive or invasive tests. And they're great with my cat too! I've shopped around, and these guys are by far my number one choice.

After 11 years, my Jack Russell, Dewey, had pretty bad looking teeth. One Saturday morning, Dewey wasn't acting right, his face was swollen and he was bleeding from his mouth a little. I rushed him to Firehouse and we picked up antibiotics and pain pills and scheduled an appt. for early the following week. In the end, Dewey needed 14 teeth pulled. I felt like the worst person on the planet. I don't remember any names but it really doesn't matter because everyone I spoke to was amazing. The detailed receipt with pictures of Dewey's super clean teeth and xrays blew me away. Dewey rode home with his head on my shoulder and a couple of days later, I opened that bottle of wine that I was given for being a new customer. I will always trust my dogs to Firehouse! They could not have done anything better and the staff is very likeable!

The staff here is incredibly friendly and has been great with both my animals. They always get me in quickly when I need an appointment and I never have had to spend long waiting once I'm there. They are all very sweet and both my pets have had good experiences going and getting catnip and doggie treats. I've had other vets and can say Firehouse has been the best experience by far.

When our long standing vet couldnt fit us in immediately to see our sick dog that they have seen since she was born, i decided to look around and found Firehouse. It was close to home and they had me bring her right in. I was extremely pleased with the staff and how quickly they got back with me on April's issues. We now have a new vet. I highly recommend them.

We absolutely love Firehouse! We have been taking our pup Leila there since 2012. As soon as we pull up Leila gets so excited and can't wait to visit her friends at Firehouse. Everyone there makes sure to make you feel welcome, and the vets are so great with Leila. We've even taken her there without an appointment after panicking about an emergency and they were so accommodating. Best animal health center around!!

I can't say enough good things about Firehouse. Dr Faught takes such great care of our dog and goes to great lengths to explain all of our options. We feel like our dog is in great hands and we trust him completely based on our experiences over the years. The entire staff takes great care of us as well. They remember my family and my dogs, and their thorough follow up after each visit is great. Overall just a fantastic operation full of smart and caring people. Go see them.

Firehouse Animal Hospital is, without a doubt, the best veterinary practice in Central Texas. In addition to their original location in Westlake, they now have locations in Kyle and Cedar Park.The staff is always incredibly nice, helpful and accommodating. They truly take time and care with our pets and make building relationships with their human and non-human patients a priority. Dr. Faught is a top notch veterinarian. He truly loves helping animals. His expertise and knowledge for pet health mixed with his friendly, comforting demeanor make him an asset to our family! Whether your pet needs a wellness checkup, you're a first time pet owner or you need advice about your pet's condition, I would try Firehouse Animal Hospital first!

I went as a new customer and everyone was great. Friendly staff on the phone to take my appointment and they let me know about the Yelp deal. In the office, everyone was warm and welcoming to my dog and me. They got us in and out without any wasted time. And it was nice to receive a new customer package as well. Two thumbs up!!

We've always had great vets so our standards are high. Firehouse's professional, compassionate, and supportive care significantly raised those expectations.We ran to Firehouse for the first time because our beloved cat was sick. They quickly diagnosed that our cat's illness required emergency care. We simply couldn't afford that and were clearly distraught. They did everything in their power to help him and lower costs. They gave us fantastic advice and clear, fair pricing at each point so that we could make the best decisions for our little family. Because of the emergency nature of our situation, the vet even gave us her personal number so we could ask questions in her off-time. Their compassion in the face of the difficult and painful choice that we are facing has been such a comfort in a difficult time. I cannot recommend their office highly enough. From their friendly and empathetic staff to the veterinarians that go above and beyond. It's clear that the entire office prioritizes the well-being of their furry and human customers.

I recently moved to Austin and the only reason I picked this vet's office was because it had 5 stars...needless to say there is a reason they have 5 stars! The facility, vets, and staff are simply amazing!!! I work with dogs daily and I can tell that these people love what they do! I received a tour of the clinic, and was treated like I treat my own clients at work. My pets have only been there once and when I called for an appointment the staff already knew my pets! (Nice touch). Dr. Mozisek was very patient with my fussy cat, she was sure not to stress him out. They are the first clinic to actually listen to me too, which is really nice when you know how to handle your own pets. Not to mention free name tags for your pets, coffee (which was amazing) and a free bottle of wine with a cat exam! I highly recommend this place! #braggingrightsearned

I was outside their door at 7:30AM, panicking with my sick cat and no appointment and still I had one of the best experiences I've ever had with a veterinarian. They examined and admitted Kerouac and I was out the door (with an unreasonably good cup of coffee to go) by 8. The doctor personally called me three times during the day to update me on my cat's fever, and when I picked her up the next day her temperature was down to normal and I had a bottle of wine to celebrate.The price was reasonable and the staff seemed genuinely happy to be there. They were willing to work with my weird schedule and even though it was a long drive, the area is totally beautiful. Kerouac is feeling a lot better and the service from the Firehouse Animal Center staff was exceptional.

Even with a very challenging patient, my cat Chuck, everyone was so kind and took the time to explain next steps. I am so happy to have found y'all! Chuck is happy about it too - even though he doesn't show it :)

Our eight year old lab had never had an ear infection before, so when he kept scratching his ears, we thought he might have caught fleas from other dogs at the dog park. After a couple of flea baths, during the week, and no relief for his ears, I took off work early on a Friday afternoon, and we were running late due to a traffic jam on Westlake Drive! We got there right at closing time, but they welcomed us, and were so kind and considerate of my stressed out and suffering fur kid! They took a swab of both ears and, sure enough, he had a very severe ear infection in both ears. The staff was amazing and really put me at ease, and I even left with a bottle of red wine..which
is complimentary to all new customers! They give you a choice of red or white wine to take home with you. Affordable services, courteous and friendly staff who really care about your baby as much as you do!

This Vet office is wonderful. They treat you like an individual and accommodate special requests. My dog is terrified once taken into an exam room so they kindly met with him in the waiting room for the exam. He thought he was meeting my friends and it relaxed him. They also are helpful and friendly with follow-ups. The location is fabulous from all areas of Austin; north or south as it's on 360 by the bridge. It's especially nice if you are in Westlake!

We adopted a four month old Apollo complete with a broken leg and serious tummy problems as a result of malnutrition and scavenging. The vets at Austin Pets Alive! Had promised to treat these two conditions as a part of our adoption agreement but their resources are finite and they're a long way away so we registered with Firehouse on the recommendation of our neighbour.What a brilliant discovery. They took our scrawny, broken pup in their stride and made sensible, deft decisions about his care. As well as extremely helpful recommendations about his diet and his rehabilitation from his injuries. Both Dr. Harrison (who has sadly now left) and Dr. Faught are truly dog people who made us feel comfortable and very much in safe hands.The reception staff are delightful. The check in and out process is always easy. And they keep a card on file along with a signed release that I update so his sitter can bring him in for treatment if necessary while we're away.They are definitely not the cheapest option in Austin - and, particularly for routine shots, there are other places even I might chose to go. But they helped transform my furry cast wearing bag of bones into 65lbs of leaping glossy two year old and I wouldn't trust anyone else with his care.

The crew at Firehouse Animal Health Center are extremely friendly and helpful. This is my first time with a puppy and they were very open and happy to see us. The vet took care of my pup's eye infection. Since I had just moved to Austin the vet was soooo helpful, I could not afford heart warm prevention so she gave me a dose to last me until I got my dog insurance in a month. The care I received at the facility was exactly what I needed having just moved to a new place. They toured me around the facility witnessing a very clean, very efficient place of work. I wouldn't even begin to look for another place to take my dog.

I cannot say enough about Firehouse. Their wellness plan is amazing, the staff even more so. We have been customers for about 1 year now and our true emergency just occurred yesterday; our big dog attacked our 7 lbs chihuahua. Daisy was seen immediately and had a prescription about an hour later. Amanda and Dr. Mozisek calmed my panicked boyfriend and got our baby taken care of. infinite thanks to you all!

I have literally never written a review online (thought I put this same review on yelp). I am one of those people who looks at reviews and uses them or research, but never actually puts the work in myself :). Anyway, I had to let people know how amazing this place is.
I have never been to a veterinarian where each person there is so positive, compassionate, and competent. My cat recently got very sick and they were amazing in caring for him and trying to find out what was wrong. In the end, our worst fears came true and we had to put my little man down. This was by far the most comfortable experience I have had with having to let a pet go, and I know the care my cat received was second to none. I am so happy I found this place and my cat had such a great place to leave this world in such a comfortable and dignified way.
The people REALLY care. I am actually astounded by how great they were, having had animals all my life and having seen different veterinarians around the country. Doctor Harrison is the best veterinarian I have ever had, and it's not even close.
If you live anywhere near this place, this is, without a doubt, where you want to go.

This place is excellent. I haven't been to a vet I have really trusted in awhile. Everyone is so nice and I know the vet's/techs are extremely thorough with Bella. I have full confidence that they truly do look over all of the animals closely. They have found things on my Lab that other vets never see.
Thanks so much for going above and beyond. It makes a difference in proactively catching issues with peoples loved ones before something comes up and its too late.
