Unfortunately, I just got the ashes and paw print back and the paw prints are HORRIBLE. I was really hoping to get a good impression of my loving pets' paws, but I received a terrible imprint. It seems more time was spent on stamping shit all around the print and not on the print of the actual paw. I'm already upset over his passing and now this. Not sure if this is an issue but if you're paying for a service and this is the quality and detail. They should rethink the process and make sure they get what is wanted. Not heart stamps and name stamps. Instead, I received a barely their impression and a collapsed one HORRIBLE and SAD. I'm giving them one star because there is nothing lower.

This company only cares about your MONEY and taking advantage of people in horrible situations…read more I called on a Wednesday to make an appointment for my dying cats to cross the rainbow bridge. During the call the pricing was explained and I was told the Veterinarian prefers cash. This would have been $650 in CASH to hand over while holding my dead cats. I explained I did not want to pay in cash. There was a hesitation and then the response was we will have the Vet reach out to you. An hour later the Vet called and we scheduled an appointment for Saturday afternoon and she asked me, will you be paying in cash? I said no, again a sigh and well I will have admin call you to collect the payment. Later that night I received a phone call requesting the $650 payment and I said I would pay a deposit but I preferred to pay the whole amount via a credit card the day of the service. I was told that's not their policy but I would get a call back later that night. No call back. Thursday late afternoon they called back while I was in a work meeting and I didn't check the voicemail. After picking my son up from daycare, dinner, bath, bed I go to check my message and at the same time these people are texting me. Essentially the message was confirming I was paying cash. When I responded saying I wasn't paying in cash they called me....at 10pm on a Thursday night. I am screenshotting this text exchange and yes I was upset. My cat is dying a slow death and this company is soulless. I get this is a business for them but there are other ways to go about it AND what kind of PROFESSIONAL service insists on their clients paying them in cash.

I felt it was much better for her to be able to stay home and not have the fear of going to a veterinary office. It was such a blessing to find this company. The doctor and assistant came on time, were very kind and understanding. Their demeanor and professionalism made a sad situation easier. I was going to write a review sooner but just had the heart to write one now. This company provides a much-needed service for pets and their owners. Thank you so much! PS: When I went to write this review, I saw that negative review someone posted about the company wanting cash. I had no problem regarding payment, no one asked me for cash. As a matter of fact, I felt the price was fair for the service given. Ignore this persons nasty review.

This place doesn't deserve one star!! We've taken our pets there for more than 15 years. We never…read morehad a problem until ethos bought them out. Now it's apparently all about profit and greed more so than providing good care for people's pets. They seem to hire anybody right out of vet school with no real life experience. From what I've seen they're not even supervised by a seasoned vet. Our last two visits there were terrible. They grossly misdiagnosed one of our dogs. We were told she probably just had an upset stomach, when in fact, she was in kidney failure. A simple review of the blood results and they would have seen it. Our girl may be with us here today if they would've diagnosed her properly and promptly put her on medication. They gave us a refund without us even asking for one because they knew their two vets fuck-ed up. They simply don't care. It appears to be all about quantity, not quality. Our most recent visit they also misdiagnosed one of other girls. I took her in because she had a sporadic cough that went on for close to an hour. It sounded like maybe something was caught in her throat, but I wanted to make certain it was nothing serious. The rookie vet terrified me saying that a cough typically indicates heart failure, heart disease etc. She did not ask me about any other symptoms. She talked me into doing several tests, with the total being close to $1500. She came to the conclusion that our girl had a significant heart murmur, heart disease, heart failure, and an enlarged heart . I was told she would it be on medication for the rest of her life. She terrified me by telling me to keep an eye on her gums, make sure they looked pink, not bluish at all. She filled a prescription for heart medication and told me that she would need to be on for the rest of her life. The same day I scheduled her for an ultrasound. A few weeks later she had the procedure done. It turned out that she has a mild heart murmur, no heart disease, no enlarged heart, and no heart failure. No need for medication. If you care about your pets, I do not recommend you taking them to this place. I will never step foot inside their door again. I will be filing complaints with the state against the few vets that misdiagnosed our girls. Somebody needs to be held accountable. I don't find it surprising at all that after I did some research that ethos was pushing the staff to do unnecessary testing! F Ethos! By the way, I believe the yelp reviews more so than the Google reviews. My understanding Google can be paid to remove negative reviews. And I also believe there are a lot of fake reviews on Google. If you truly care about your pets, I urge you to not take them to this place. I've seen too many horror stories similar to ours.
