they got my frenchie shots here a couple months ago fast service all the bad reviews are people with cats that look like rats

Took my dog here to be fixed and it came out great! No problems with the surgery. The only problem was that she came back smelling like pee, and I couldn't take her a bath when I got home because of the stitches on her stomach. So I had to deal with that pee stench for a while until the stitches healed. The wait was super long though. It was so crowded in the morning because people are dropping off and picking up their pets. But, at least they gave me a sedative medicine for my dog, so she doesn't feel pain. read more

The service that this place offers is so necessary in this town, and they perform it with the best prices and great customer service. They are efficient, kind, friendly and knowledgeable. I recently brought two rescued cats here to be spayed and was very pleased. The check in and pick up were both quick but thorough, I was in and out in under 25 minutes each time (much quicker than any time I have used a pricey full service vet for the same services). The cats came home spayed and vaccinated (even with the optional nail trim) for under $80. read more

Excellent service. I was worried about my 3 kitties being left overnight. But all fears are gone. They monitor your pets and take very good care of them. I even got a follow up phone call to see how they were doing. Very professional and caring. Please donate towels, clorox wipes to help keep this wonderful place going. read more

When it comes to our fur babies, we pet owners can be very particular! I recently brought my 5 month old kitten here for her first set of shots ($12) and again for her alteration. Notice I didn't post a price for the alteration. It can vary from dog to cat, gender, breed and their current grant status. We were able to get ours at a VERY affordable price and in addition, use a voucher from another local agency that supports altering your pets. The staff was kind, knowledgeable and efficient the three times I had to come here. They were very patient with all my questions and lack of knowledge on vaccines, etc. Customer service at its finest, which is a great way to be greeted when you're leaving your little baby with them overnight! I had no interaction with the vets who performed the surgery or any technicians who administered her vaccinations. Any time you have these specific needs for your pet, I recommend trying here! They also accept donations of common household cleaners for the care of their facility and animals. 10/10 would return, but you know, you can only fix your kitten once! Hehe read more

Took Princess to get fixed yesterday. Very clean facility and friendly staff. My friends and family were surprised to hear how affordable it was to spay my puppy. I definitely recommend this place for fixing and vaccinating your companion animals! read more

Critters without Litters - Pet Services Near Me - Bakersfield, California

This place is very busy, but also so incredibly priced! We rescued a kitten and wanted to get her spayed. We were told at our regular vet it would be $150 plus vaccines $75. We called here, recommended by a few different places, spay and vaccines were $50! Our cat was held for 48 hours to make sure she recovered well and was back to pretty much normal by the time we got her. The recovery was great and there were no complications at all! So happy! read more

I love this place. Took 2 of my 3 dogs to get spayed and the experience was just amazing. The staff was kind and explained everything in detail. I will be taking my other dog in very soon also. The surgery incision was great 2. You couldn't even tell that the dogs had surgery. What amazing people that are working here. read more

Nice people, no appointment needed, and very inexpensive so show appreciation and give them a small donation if you can.

Had my 14 month old Katniss spayed here about a week ago..these people are true animal lovers! Intended on using their whole month of February special but appointments fill up quick! All told, the procedure, extra post op pain killers, and a rabbis vaccination set me back about $70- GREAT VALUE!! Drop off between 8-830am, p/u the next morning by 730 so they can clean & sterilize for the next bunch. Female cats have no external stitches, that's all internal so Katniss came home w/just a shaved tender belly but no redness, scabbing, or irritation at all. I highly recommend Critters as they cared for my baby Katniss better than I could've imagined. Tips; arrive early, use a hard carrier, throw in a small hand towel or something washable & comfy, & be prepared to make new friends! read more

Critters without Litters - Harkey's Princess Luna, 1st day home post-op; revisiting her coach (: - Pet Services Near Me - Bakersfield, California

I have used their services for my Boxers...now we are having our lodge feral cats neutered/spayed. I don't know what some are complaining about as I have found desk & support staff very patient & kind.And the services rendered for the price...top notch. Thank You Critters w/o litters read more

I am so glad I found this place. I had a bad experience at my last vet. The staff is so friendly the facility is clean not cluttered they do not let animals roam around the waiting room they're very organized. They took good care of my puppy they made me feel safe with leaving her there. I would recommend this company to all my friends and family. read more

I went Thursday morning to get my puppy her shots. The staff was really nice and made the process fast and easy. Got in and out quickly. Will be going back. read more

Very friendly and helpful staff! I've taken my fur son here to get his annual vaccines, which were $12 each! Very pleased with the affordable cost. The amount of time spent at their office was also quick, I spent less than 20 minutes (as a walk in) to sign my pup in, and receive his vaccines! Walk in welcome (for vaccines, unsure about other procedures) until 2 pm Mon - Thu I will definitely be coming here again for all his needs. The only bad part would be their hours, I'm typically at work during their business hours, so I've had my mom take my little love in for me. read more

Critters without Litters - Inside the vet :) - Pet Services Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Took 2 kittens here to get spayed one was normal the other ones incision was different. Immediately she became severely ill for atleast a week. She lived but I don't think I'll be bringing another animal here read more

Terrible, my poor Maddy, went in with a small scratch on her neck, came out worse! Intake person and Vet Tech doing her exam were told to put the collar back on to keep her from scratching it, but it was ignored and got worse. The vet on staff didn't read the file and allowed it to get worse. They called to tell me that her neutering went well but they recommended treatment on the scratch for which Maddie was already under her own vets care for it but they made it worse. So after a heated discussion with the director about the need for better communication amongst their team to take care of my dog and everybody else's dog she hung up on me. They don't care about your pets nearest much as they care about their reputation in the image in the political correctness, wish they cared about my dog enough to read her file and take good care why she is there under there watch. What made matters worse this morning when I went to pick her up They had already given her to another family who was headed out the door until I stop them, who does that who gives away somebody else's dog to other people, totally incompetent and then the vet wanted to talk to me to smooth things over and I refused. They provide a great service they just have incompetent people who don't talk to each other and who don't care about the safety or the well-being of your pets while they are in their care. I'm glad I have a great vet for Maddie who take such great care of her and my other dogs read more

I had my dog fixed here & the pricing was what got me. Not only was my puppy well taken care of but the pricing worked well with my budget. They are a great group of people! read more

Amazing place! Super friendly staff, and amazing sevices offered. Our cat was spayed through here, and it was a great experience.

I am dealing with three dogs now who are fully vetted that got kennel cough after my female came back from a spay. I was suspicious that they were not properly cleaning their holding cages because she REEKED of a dirty kennel. I was also put off and should have went with my gut instinct that something was awry when they they didn't bother asking for proof of my dogs up to date vaccines during check in, which we had. If they didn't ask us they don't ask others and that is very concerning obviously. I am to blame not questioning why we were not asked for vet records but to be fair it was sheer chaos in that office. Shame on your practices. read more

Great place and great people to take care of your four legged friend. Great prices for vaccinations and getting your animal spayed or neutered. read more

I had a very positive experience here! I took my cat, full grown Doberman Pinscher, and Mini Schnauzer here to get spayed and neutered. The prices were more than reasonable compared to how much they charge where I am from. All my pets came home with no problems. This place gets very hectic and busy, but the staff remained calm and pleasant. read more

Great hospitable, clinic. Everyone (Kim and Josh did the heavy lifting) was professional, friendly and took great care of my difficult case. Thank you from a healthy, happy B.B. and I. read more

Second time at this location. Staff is super nice and even during Covid, they are organized and understanding. Came to get my 11mo. old pup to get his vaccinations, we did have to wait outside 6ft apart from others. Total time there was no more that 30 minutes, if that. read more

I took my two cats to be neutered. The service was great and staff so friendly. The facility was clean and I had no hesitation leaving my babies there. You cannot beat the prices!!! Recommend taking your animals there!!; read more

10/10 would recommend. I was very impressed with how accommodating they were to my schedule. The staff all seem very caring and loving towards animals & have a lot of patience. Very affordable and your pet will be in good hands here. read more

I've taken all 3 of my dogs here and was happy with the overall experience (even though one of my rescues was already spayed and none of us were aware!) at least they were honest with me and let me know after they couldn't find her uterus ... I recommend this place to my friends... read more

I brought my dog in for a neuter and i asked the front desk if i can talk to the vet becuase i was worried about my dog and she became real defensive and advised me to go somewhere else read more

Just called for a quote to spay my puppy and the receptionist was pretty dang rude. Customer service can definitely use some improvement. Not sure if she didn't have her coffee this morning or what, but she could've been a little nicer. Had a few more questions I wanted to ask, but felt like I was a waste of her time.... read more

Everyone was great until our 3rd visit to get our dog fixed. The girl at the desk was so rude..we were asking questions about the procedure she was very irritated and told us if we wanted that kind of service we could go somewhere else. She was very unprofessional. read more

I would go somewhere else! They are okay for vaccines but they recommended a preventative care for heart worms called Interceptor. The medicine also said it would remove hookworm, roundworm, and whipworm. My dog is now sick. I took her to the vet and she has tapeworms. I called critters without litters and she said Interceptor doesn't treat tapeworms...BUT Banfield in Petsmart has the Interceptor Plus that includes tapeworm care. I went to critters without litters because everyone kept recommending me to go there but I will not be taking future pets there. read more

This place is amazing. Quick and fast and the staff is so nice. And you can't beat the prices.

My better half and I moved and needed to update our dogs on their rabies vaccination and get licensing for in the city. We had a great time from start to finish! The ladies at the office were professional and really helpful. The pricing was extremely low compared to other places we had called and they took care of everything! We will be returning when we need to update them on their vaccines next year... They got us in with no appointment and it was a breeze! read more

The staff are tremendously patient considering the sea of humanity they have to deal with on a daily basis. I'm very impressed by their professionalism and care. I had both a male and female dog neutered here, and they both received excellent work. Those prices are a service to the community. read more

I had my 6 year old female cat fixed here a few months ago and I was very pleased with their service. To get her fixed it was $50. I also payed $12 for rabies vaccination, $5 for an e-collar, and I bought medication but I don't remember how much that cost. The whole thing cost around $75. My cat was in heat at the time of her surgery but they did NOT charge me extra for that. Check-in was from 8:00-8:30 am and pick up is the next day at 7:30am. As far as healing goes, my cat was fine for the first day but when I started her on the medication, she started throwing up every time she ate. I called them, stopped her medication, brought her in, and they put fluids under her skin. From there, she healed perfectly and was back to her normal self. Note that they do NOT offer pre-operative blood tests to check liver/kidney function. Overall, I would certainly recommend this place for anyone looking to get their pet spayed/neutered. The staff is attentive, they take good care of your animal, and the prices are unbeatable. read more

After having read all the great reviews about this place I decided to contact their office to take my puppy to get her first set of shots and was only disappointed by the receptionist. I expected to speak with someone whom would be happy to answer any questions I had with a smile. I called early morning when the office location opened but maybe it was too early and the receptionist showed it in her voice with annoyance. I decided to take my puppy elsewhere. read more

Thank you Dr. Keese for seeing my beloved cat Magneto. He did not eat for about three days and was losing weight. Thanks to his conservative plan of action working out, we were able to save a lot of money and not go to aggressive route to fix his problem. He is now a very happy cat who is happily eating his treats once again! I came in yesterday and was able to be seen on a Sunday around noon and he was feeling better that evening already. read more

I am so absolutely impressed with the kind hearted service I received when taking my puppy to get spayed. The efficient system they have in place for dropping off and picking up didn't one bit affect the level of customer service I observed from ALL the employees. My little chihuahua didnt hesitate to jump in their arms n she's normally skiddish. I will definitely be donating to this establishment and will return in the future. I would recommend this low cost alternative to any other veterinary hospital for all spay/neuter needs. Thank you for treating my pet like she was your own. read more

Staff is really nice and the prices are definitely affordable. I'll definitely be coming back.

Great service and support for spaying and neutering your pets. Very affordable, clean and staffed with kind, knowledgeable people. I brought my two dogs in to be spayed. They have early morning check in and I received a call in the afternoon to let me know my furbabies had done well. I picked them up the next day and was impressed with the incisions and stitches. Very clean with no irritations that cause pain or the desire to lick or bite at the wound. I also received a call the next day to check on my pets well-being. They offer affordable vaccinations and flea treatment as well. I definitely recommend Critters without Litters. read more

I have taken several animals to be spayed through Critters Without Litters. I was unsure about taking my pets to them because I worried that they would do the surgeries in an unsafe, assembly line process. Based on hearing about them through a few places I decided to give them a call. They did have a bit of a waiting list in order to spay my dog but they got her in the next week. They took excellent care of her. For half the price of a spay at her vet she received her spay surgery, pain medication, and her rabies vaccination. I also took a few feral/friendly cats to be spayed through them. During that time they were spaying female cats for $20 a piece. They were the first place I called when it came time to spay my 11 month old German Shepherd. read more
