Please see the google review from Layne!…read more Like Layne posted, I have fond memories of using this vet but also like Layne's review, my last visit was met with resistance to which vaccines I give my pet. The vet assistant asked me which vaccines I wanted and suggested one that I never heard of, the parvovirus, I declined. When the vet came in those notes were apparently ignored and the vet started telling me that she was going to administer that vaccine. When I declined again the vet started arguing my decision and tried to convince me I was making the wrong decision. Pet owners, unless you like arguing with your vet and being guilt tripped, avoid this vet clinic, especially avoid Kirsten H (Dr Hiles).

He's very…read moreattached to me, has separation anxiety, and is generally scared of other people (we've been working on that for years now but it's slow going). However, he ADORES other dogs, and his favorite thing in the whole world is being around them and playing with them. It's hard to travel with Benji and he'd struggle if I left him with a dogsitter, so when I had to leave for a weekend recently I decided to try boarding him. Since K9-Playtime includes daycare (a full day of socializing and playing with the other dogs) in their boarding package, they definitely seemed like the best option for Benji, but I was still nervous about how he'd do. The staff at K9-Playtime were super communicative, helpful, and lovely! They asked lots of great questions about Benji's behaviors in different situations to see if daycare and boarding would work for him. I brought him in for a couple partial days of daycare to test things out, and the staff were awesome with Benji and he loved it there! They said he was great with all the dogs and staff members and gave him the OK for boarding. The whole weekend I was waiting for a call saying that he was anxious and needed to be picked up early, but I was so surprised and relieved that Benji spent the whole weekend at K9-Playtime with no issues and actually had a really fun time!! He was happy and exhausted from playing when I picked him up, and honestly seemed sad to leave all his new friends! He just played with the other dogs all day long while he was there, with breaks for meals and snacks, and by bedtime he was too worn out to be anxious (or conscious lmao). They posted a picture on their social media that includes him, and he just has the biggest goofiest grin on his face as he's running around with the other dogs! I definitely recommend checking out K9-Playtime if your dog is anything like mine! It's so nice to have them as an option for Benji if I need to work a long day or travel. Great experience with them for both me and my dog!

This veterinarian was so accepting and non judgmental at a very vulnerable time, that she was a gift to me and my precious cat. I can't imagine anyone else to do this tough job when folks are so emotional. You can't go wrong with Dr Tracy at Blue Skies, she will treat your vulnerable pet with deep loving care.
