Both times, Dr. Donna Digregorio saw our cat and I can not praise her and the staff enough!!! Dr. Donna is so lovely and helpful!! We always feel that our cat's health is as important to them as it is to us! Vet bills can be expensive but everyone at the Annex Vet Clinic makes sure you don't feel taken advantage OR like a bad pet parent when they detail what your pet needs. A BIG thank you to all of the staff!!!!

The vet is afraid of cats! I was a client here for more than 10 years. After the new ownership took…read moreover I took my cat there. New vet. She was late for my appointment - chatting with a dog owner right in front of me as I waited. Next, the assistant took me into the room and asked me to explain the problem. He tried to explain it back to me using the wrong details twice! The fun part - he then started wrapping my very timid, very gentle cat up in a towel. Obviously I stopped him... she was terrified! Why? I asked the vet and she explained that she knew another vet who had to go to hospital after getting scratched by a cat. A vet who doesn't get to know the animal, just terrifies it because someone she knows got scratched. Cats give off signals when they're going to scratch, so obviously her friend can't read cat signals. Maybe her friend was a vet too?! Seriously! Do not go to this practice if you have a cat.

When I found Katherine, my Rottweiler mix, Kira, was only a few months old and, like any puppy, a…read morebit of a handful. To top it off, I knew I would be moving to Vancouver soon, so I only needed a dog walker for a few months. I spoke to quite a few dog walkers before finding Katherine: one wouldn't take Kira because she was a puppy and he said he "didn't want to deal with a puppy if it was only a three month commitment" while others I just got bad vibes from. When I spoke to Katherine though, I immediately felt at ease. Even though I was outside of her area, she still agreed to meet us. Kira instantly fell in love with Katherine and I loved that Katherine actually spent time with us. She wasn't rushed and really got to know us. I got a good vibe and decided to go with her. I asked her to send me pictures of Kira on her walks and give me updates on her (paranoid dog mom over here!) which she did with no issues. I love how patient Katherine was with Kira. Kira used to cause a scene when leaving the park (which she has fortunately grown out of): when it was time to leave, she would start barking and run around Katherine. Instead of Katherine giving up on her, she would bring a toy to distract Kira with which would get her safely and happily out of the park. She also always had a bottle of water with her and made sure Kira was hydrated. Her patience, care, and love for my dog was everything I wanted in a dog walker. I would highly recommend The Pawsitive Companion to anyone. I'm happy to say that Katherine and I still keep in touch, and if we ever move back to Toronto, she'll definitely be Kira's forever dog walker.

I took my kitten here after reading a number of the reviews and I'm very happy that I did. I was…read morewarmly welcomed by Alyshia at the front desk and proceeded to chat with the other people who were also in the waiting room. Each of them had been going to this clinic with their pets for years and were very happy with the service. I saw Dr. Grieve for the check up and yearly shots and she provided me with lots of information and also answered my questions patiently and kindly. She was great with my kitten, Ella. If I have any other concerns with either of my cats, I'm definitely coming back here.

There's a lot of competition !

This month, we had to put our dog, Ginger, down after 15 beautiful years with her. Looking back…read moreover Ginger's life, we are most grateful for the superb care that she received over the years at Barking Along. As a first time dog owner, I was lucky to be given the gift of Aviva's experience, generous guidance and sound judgement. Ginger's time at Barking Along was wonderful and I learned to have total confidence in Aviva and Lily. When our family went on vacations, Ginger boarded with Aviva, and we could go away with peace of mind knowing that Ginger was in the best of hands. Ginger was a calm, friendly, and happy dog and we know that this was in large part due to the fact that she spent many of her days as a puppy at Barking Along. We are so thankful for the dedication and expertise of Aviva and Lily. As we mourn the loss of Ginger, it is a great comfort to know that we gave her a safe and wonderful time both at home and when she was at her home-away-from-home, Barking Along.

Barking Along has been our trusted doggy daycare and pet service for many years, and we wouldn't…read moretrust anyone else with our animals. It's the only place I'd feel comfortable leaving our pup, and it's the only place he's happy to go everyday. Between daily walks, other friendly dogs, and his area where he sleeps, it's more like a doggy vacation vs. a doggy daycare. Aviva and Lili are great people, and the only people I'd trust my pets to. THANK YOU!

Well he has turned out to be quite the handful, very energetic and full of fun. Suzanne has been so patient and loving with my Keeshond and he has come to adore her and knows when she is coming and becomes very excited to see her. I think I would have given up and returned my pup if I had not found Suzanne. She is also very knowledgeable and willing to try different methods in training but keeping it fun at the same time.

Started going to this vet cl8nic when they 1st opened. I found the reception and vet assistants…read morewere great. But no so with the vers. I was persistently reminded about my pets annual ALLshots you can possibly think of to get or the negative effect was...bad pet parent. When my 8 yr old dog needed his tooth out. The estimate was $1500-2000.a small 12 pound dog neutering was apprx $1500 +. I am retired, I would have Togo back to work to have pets cared for by this clinic. I have since gone to another vet clinic. The services are great, and I can actually afford to have pets cared for after all. Tooth out fir me is less then $500. why $1500-2000 for a 15 pound dog???? A neuter is less then half whr I go now..

I would not recommend this clinic. I was a client for many years, seeing a few different vets. I…read morenever clicked with Dr Hannah's "bedside manner" but overall things were fine until one of my dogs had a serious illness. If your pets have a serious or complex situation, please seek help elsewhere. We felt the attitude was constantly negative and we were pushed to see our dog as an end-of-life case who was too old. When we asked for treatment options, very little was suggested. We took our dog elsewhere and they referred us to a specialist who had many ideas and suggestions to improve his quality of life. I have no complaint with the reception and vet tech staff, but the way this clinic is being run did not work for me personally and I cannot recommend it.

I have been taking my Sheepadoodle to moon since my dog was 6 months of age, I can't say enough…read moregreat things about Moon! I groom my dog once a month, and every time I pulled up to her house he couldn't be more excited and happy to see her, she would also dog sit for me once or twice a week. He always came out happy and of course the best groom job ever! She is a true animal lover at heart! I had recommended over half a dozen friends and everyone of them were completely satisfied! I read the horrible story about the puppy who unfortunately died in her studio and it's horrific! My sincerest condolences goes out! I know she had closed her studio because of her heartache after that. I would not say it's her fault at all! It just happened on her watch . Hopefully she will reopen in the future and R.I.P. to the PUP!
