Had to put my dog to sleep the day after Christmas and her regular vet was closed. As horrible as it was, everyone at this place made it go as smoothly as it could go and handled it all with care, compassion, and understanding. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I had to do this same thing 12 years ago with my previous dog at her normal vet and it went terribly and I'll never forget how awful it was.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Needless to say when I get another dog I will be taking them here. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I am so grateful for the staff at this clinic.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] As a first time cat owner, I was terrified when my cat had an issue because I still hadn't found a vet for her. Dr. Roger's was gentle and sweet, and made it an easy visit for my girl, who is terrified of car rides and was not doing well when we got there. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I left feeling so much relief that my girl was taken care of, and I found a veterinarian that I trusted.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Also very affordable, and quick care. I was put in a room right when I got there and there was full transparency before they did anything with how much it would cost. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Just the best. I was unhappy with my previous vet we had been going to for years. My 15 year old cat was recently diagnosed diabetic and our last vet just dropped the ball.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My friend suggested I give Caring Hands a try and they did not disappoint!

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Wow, I can not express enough how grateful I am for caring hands and Dr Jonah.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Over the past 3 months my 3 year old Boston terrier was having the weirdest skin issues, her hair and skin were falling off and she really looked like a zombie.

I've been going to this vet for years and always believing the treatment costs were fair and affordable. However, it seems the price has doubled for some procedures and tests- I hope i'm wrong! I checked nationwide the average cost of a particular treatment, and they were double that. Service is usually above average otherwise. I just always wonder why diagnostic tests for animals seem to cost more than the same test for people, especially considering most pet owners pay without insurance- which should lower the fees charged. My guess is that a person on a fixed income cannot afford a typical vet bill- even a yearly teeth cleaning- that's very expensive now! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Amazing lady - Denise, her nametag said manager but I think she must be a vet. I brought Lexi from the park with something in her paw, got there 1 minute before closing. Denise helped even though they were closing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]She saved my evening. I have serious heart problems and this stress was unbearable that something happened to my "baby"![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'll always be taking my dogs here from now on thank you DENISE read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]We have always had a great experience at Caring Hands.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Their staff is terrific. They seem to take a genuine interest in helping and getting to know our dog Farley, a rescued 5 year old border collie[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Years of neglect prior to our finding him at the Camarillo Shelter had taken a toll on Farley, both orthopedically and with his dental hygiene. After a thorough exam, and consultation, we had a complete understanding of Farley's overall health. They performed extensive oral surgery, and coupled with common sense advice of dealing with his orthopedic issues going forward have improved Farley's overall health and well being. A much happier dog. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Sean, in particular has taken an interest in Farley, and Farley trusts and enjoys interacting with him on his visits.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

My older dog needed thyroid evaluation; I am new to the area and they took care of her quickly. I will be back.

I can not say enough about how appreciative I am of Caring Hands. My dog had a seizure and Dr. Diaz fit him into her schedule. The total staff was very caring and supportive, to both my dog and ME. I have a disability and they made the visit easy by helping me every step of the way. Dr. Diaz was very diligent and called me to present the bloodwork findings. She conveyed the results in an easy to understand articulation. She addressed existing, and potential care with a personable and caring manner. THANK YOU to all the staff at this WONDERFUL hospital. They truly are CARING HANDS. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Wow! What a great experience! We were looking for a new vet since our old one moved out of state. We were referred to Caring Hands and couldn't be more happy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The entire Staff and Dr. Betty were excellent.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Dr. Betty took the time to go over both of our dogs and she obviously cared a great deal about them. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I can't say enough and we are happy we found this veterinary clinic.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Absolutely the best vet I've ever taken my pets to... they are adorable and truly care about your little furry friend. No pressures to do anything other than the care needed at the moment and their prices are so reasonable and fair that I feel comfortable always taking my pets here from now on. Staff is incredibly sweet and it's obvious how much they truly love helping animals. Highly recommend! read more

It's been about two weeks, and I can finally get myself to write this review. The people at Caring Hands were so warm and unbelievable. My dog was very ill and we didn't know why. They were able to see her the next morning even though we weren't patients. My usual vet was busy for three days. Lo and behold we had to put our baby down and they were so kind and gentle and very sweet throughout the whole process. They were shedding tears with us as we hysterically cried our eyes out. They truly were so sweet, kind, understanding and loving. I didn't know how much everything was going to cost so I had just taken out a CareCredit credit card that morning which made me feel better, knowing I could financially do whatever it took to save my girl. The only issue I have with Caring Hands is that they do not take CareCredit. Hopefully, that's some thing they will change in the future to help alleviate the financial cost of having a sick animal. Other than that they were all amazing and when I get my next animal this is the only place I will take them, even though it's far from my house. The care at Caring Hands does not compare to my local vet. read more

I like this place. We have taken our dogs and cats there for many years. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They always treat us nicely and they are very gentle and loving with our pets.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I took my dog here for year. My dog had a stroke and had to be put down. Caring hands what a joke. I've had dogs all my life very unprofessional. Worst care ever. They made me sit in the waiting room for a 1/2 hour crying. Then, Dr. Koss only got 1/2 the dose in my dog and he struggled. If I could have left in the middle I would have. Anywhere is better than this place. No caring hands here. Never ever would I go here or recommend this place. read more

Shame. We took our dog here since he was born - a total of 15.5 years. At the end of his life, we called in desperation for an appointment and all they could say was "we are too busy to take him, good luck". He passed away the next day. We were very happy when it was under Dr. Koss but this experience has horrible. read more

Amazing place, always makes time for our pets and has treated us amazing. Thanks for all you do!

I thought I left a review for these guys in the past - they are so wonderful and I'm so thankful for finding them after moving to TO from LA. Highly recommend very loving staff! read more

I called a bunch of Vets and they were the most economical option for putting our dog down. They were very kind and sympathetic upon arrival and they made the whole experience as seamless as possible. Highly recommend. read more

I've been coming to Caring Hands for my cats for over a decade now. The staff here is always so kind and knowledgeable. I never feel rushed or that any concerns I have are not worth their time. They never try to upsell you on treatments/products they don't deem necessary, their prices are also the best I've seen in the area. Special shout out to Brielle who is always seriously so kind and compassionate. She literally radiates sunshine and Caring Hands is very lucky to have her (and all of the other vet techs, they are all genuinely amazing). You can't go wrong here and I can't recommend them enough. read more

I would give them 10 stars if I could. It's a long story and I'll make it short as I can. I had an urgent need to get my dog into a vet. Most were scheduling appointments weeks in advance and my dog had blood in urine and diarrhea so needed to be seen ASAP! Caring hands was booking and very busy as well, but fit us in the next day! They were very kind, attentive, and explained every charge rendered and even went above and beyond to ensure my dog Biscuit got the best care possible. Just know that they are trustworthy and your pet is in good hands. Thank you again Caring Hands for the exceptional service! read more

(805)'s very own Dog Whisperer!!! If you're looking for a caring, loving, nurturing, honest, loyal, and professional Veterinary Office...look no further! Caring Hands is THE ONE for all of your fur babies! My dog used to have to be sedated in order to get his nails trimmed at a vet office out in Moorpark, VERY costly! Until my brother-in-law introduced me to Caring Hands. They are ANIMAL MAGIC here I tell you! I dropped my fur baby off adamant about how he has to be sedated in order for a nail trim, within 10 minutes later, they called me and said he's all done and no sedation was needed! I was almost in tears! The fact that the whole team/staff here can do what they do because they love and care for them as much as we do, they're also VERY reasonably priced! PLEASE!!!! Do yourself a favor pocket wise and for your fur babies health/care wise and come here.... THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE AND GO TO FOR ANY ANIMAL CARE services! Thank you Caring Hands! You guys have impacted us and our fur baby in such a positive way! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Our first visit with Dr. Kohan was very helpful.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We brought our older dog, who was refusing to eat, in to see someone. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Staff was very helpful getting us in quickly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Dr. Kohan took her time with us answering our questions and explaining what the problem may be. Maisy was given medicine and by nightfall, eating again and feeling so much better. I highly recommend Dr. Kohan. read more

Absolutely blown away that this veterinarian that we have used for my 6 year old (healthy) english bull dog since he was born cannot see an emergency situation because they are "over booked"! Do not use . This vet is not in it because they care . read more

Caring Hands Veterinary hospital is the only place that I will ever take my pets as long as I am in the area. They saved my little puppy's life after he had ingested something that caused his entire system to shut down. After days of non stop care, they were able to bring him back. Present day Sushi is happier and healthier than ever. The staff is always attentive and caring, consistently living up to their name. It does not matter which doctor you go to, each one is absolutely excellent. They will never try to push extra services on you that aren't necessary. It is beautiful to see how much everyone there truly loves and cares for animals. This is why I cannot trust anyone else to care for my animals. Thank you Caring Hands Veterinary Hospital! read more

I would not recommend this vet office. I Was told by three different veterinarians at this location that my dog was diagnosed with two bladders and had a "bladder abnormality" in my five month old puppy. They urged us to an internal specialist, and then called the next day to ensure that I was making an appointment, leading us to believe that this was a major issue that needs to be taken care of immediately. $2200 and 2 internal specialist later we come to find Out that he's Completely fine and that his bladder is totally normal! When I called the vet office a couple days later to discuss what they saw versus what my two specialist saw, and to confirm that multiple vets at that veterinarian Hospital agreed with the abnormal bladder diagnosis I was told that " they are not specialists, that's why they sent me for a second opinion" I'm sorry, but that's not a good enough answer as to why I just spent an insane amount of money for 2 different doctors to tell me he was fine. I understand that medicine has its limits and we can only do so much with the equipment on hand at a regular vet, office, but to have three different veterinarians, including the lead veterinarian on staff tell me a sob story about her own dog having two bladders and needing surgery, only to find out our dog doesn't need anything and he's completely fine is unacceptable, completely and grossly negligent. How many other pet parents have you done this to? Had I not been able to afford the second opinion we were honestly thinking about putting him down so he wasn't in any pain or suffering. It's still blows my mind that three different veterinarians all agreed with a diagnosis that is completely inaccurate. I would not recommend coming here unless you're interested in spending a bunch of money you don't need to spend on a diagnosis that isn't even accurate. Take your pet somewhere else and save yourself the heartache and cash. read more

Our dog Murphy had his dental cleaning today. Dropped off at 9 am, picked up at 3:00pm. This clinic did a superb job! I will definitely bring Murphy back here for his next visit. Thanks to all the staff that took care of our fur-baby today! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I normally had good service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] However, the other day I took my girl in to get groomed and asked for a Santi cut around her but. They did do the Santi cut, but it was a too close and let her in pain. They didn't even tell me about it. I only fund out as I saw my girl licking herself and in pain. If you take your baby to the groomers there beware. read more

I've been taking my senior rescue dog to Caring Hands since I adopted her. I picked Caring Hands because of the location and the good reviews. Well, my own experience has been WONDERFUL. The staff has always been helpful, kind, and efficient. I'm very happy with the techs and vets. I highly recommend Caring Hands. I'm so relieved to have them for my senior girl. THANK YOU Caring Hands. :D read more

This was not a good experience at all, they should be renamed SADISTIC HANDS VETERINARY HOSPITAL! I took my 15 year old cat in to discuss putting him down due to advanced hyperthyroidism, blindness and onset of dementia. They seemed very nice but kept saying that he could go on for some time if he took meds. I knew my regular vet was against it due to his advanced state but they insisted it would help. Within 4 days of taking the medication he was dead! It is just so upsetting because I wanted to put him down in a humane and caring manor but instead had to watch him suffer excruciating seizures and sudden paralysis and heart failure. While on the phone to ask for help in the situation they said take him to emergency hospital because they cannot do anything. The kicker was that the lady said they will not hold it against me if I put him down. WHAT, are you kidding me!! While on the phone with them the cat died in my arms. It was very traumatic to watch this horror show unfold. I just wanted a peaceful, caring humane ending to his life but instead he received a painful and violent end. I do not recommend taking your elderly sick animals to SADIISTIC HANDS VETERINARY HOSPITAL. I see another post with similar thing happened to her dog. read more

My family dog had been suffering for while due to old age. My dog was 13 years old and unfortunately was nearing the end, constantly hacking and coughing. He would constantly be wheezing or coughing up liquids. It was so bad he couldn't even run anymore or drink water, he eventually stopped wanting to eat. My sister and I decided it would be best to let him rest and put him down. My parents had been taking him to this vet for sometime. Although they were sweet I felt as if the doctors and staff here weren't knowledgeable. They kept prescribing medication that did not help and finally we decided it was time to put him down no more medication. For some reason they insisted on giving more medication even though my dog clearly wasn't getting better. Two days later he had passed away. They staff is indeed friendly just in my experience they didn't seem to know how to actually help. read more
