I felt seen, I felt cared for, and I felt like they gave my baby the greatest respect. When she was returned to me, I finally felt like I could breathe a little and was happy to be bringing her home. It's really the little things that people do that really turn out to be big, and they know what a grieving person needs. I'm so thankful to David and anyone else who works behind the scenes. Thank you!

Losing a pet is never easy, and having to say goodbye to my daughter's beloved bird--especially on…read moremy birthday--was incredibly difficult. From the moment I walked into Heavenly Paws Cremations, Donnia made an emotional time so much more bearable. She welcomed me with warmth and compassion, sitting me down to explain all my options with patience and care. They have a beautiful selection of urns displayed in a separate room, allowing me to choose something special. The entire process was handled with professionalism, promptness, and clear communication, which I truly appreciated during such a tough moment. I was even able to get a footprint, a handprint, and some feathers, which meant so much to me and my daughter as a way to remember our sweet bird. When I received the remains, they were placed in a lovely velvet bag, showing the attention to detail and respect they have for both pets and their owners. I cannot recommend Heavenly Paws Cremations enough for anyone going through the loss of a pet. They made the process seamless and dignified, and their quality products and compassionate service made all the difference. Thank you, Donnia, for your kindness--you truly helped make a heartbreaking experience a little easier.

They manage to ALWAYS fit me in when I'm in town and provide the BEST customer service, reliability, and pet care that shows they love their careers!! The whole company have helped me jumping through hoops with veterinary health certificates and making sure everything is kosher for travel and up to date- time and time AGAIN! I wouldn't want to go to any other vet! Dr. Fenwick is kind, thorough, well rounded in knowledge, gentle, and compassionate! My chihuahua usually growls at vets, and he even jumps in Dr. Fenwick's lap! BBVH even fit me in on Saturdays for complete chaotic emergencies! I've never known a vet to be so 5 STAR!!!

The app streamlines scheduling appointments, Rx refills, treat orders etc. If you love your fur babies... you need to be at this vet!!!

Just returned from such great care (9/9-9/10/24) for our older dog. He had a tremendous infection…read morein his leg and required surgery. Just brought him home. How much? $2,500. Yes, we love our dog. Now, let's get a few things straight. First, we have had great care at Waldorf Emergency Care over the last 7-8 years. This has included multiple visits with our dog and our cats during that time. Dr. Fox has a lifetime of experience caring for all types of animals and is still committed to his clinic and patients. I have had the same experience with the other vets on duty, and also with the vet techs. Second, yes, there is actually a cost to pet care. Imagine that. Notice that each of the poor ratings were people complaining about the cost. It is an EMERGENCY CLINIC! Ever seen the cost of an ER visit at your local hospital? Jesus. If you can't afford the cost of care, either get pet insurance or a CareCredit card, or do NOT get a pet at all. Third, having observed many, many people in that waiting room over these years, I am astounded at the incredible impatience and outright sense of entitlement of so many pet owners. The pets are evaluated based on their conditions and rank ordered for care...no difference than in a hospital ER. Bottomline is that the poor reviews are not at all my experience. Read through them and see if $$$ is actually the core reason. That's what I got out of them.

A few hours after receiving her rabies vaccination, we noticed that our chihuahua, Tammy, was…read morehaving a serious reaction. Her snout began swelling rapidly. Since our dog's primary clinic had already closed for the day, we urgently needed emergency care. We started calling around but had difficulty finding a veterinarian in Alexandria who could see us right away--until we reached the Veterinary Emergency Group at 4525 Duke Street. From the moment they answered the phone, the experience was exceptional. The staff member who took our call immediately reassured us that Tammy could be treated and calmly instructed us to bring her in right away. That reassurance alone meant a great deal during what was a very stressful moment. When we arrived, Dr. Rohan Shah saw Tammy immediately and began treating her without delay. His professionalism, calm demeanor, and clear expertise were incredibly reassuring. He and the entire staff treated Tammy with urgency, compassion, and genuine care, while also taking the time to explain what was happening and what they were doing to help her. Thanks to their quick action and outstanding care, Tammy was in the best possible hands during a frightening situation. The level of professionalism, kindness, and efficiency we experienced was truly remarkable. I cannot recommend the Veterinary Emergency Group highly enough. If your pet ever needs urgent care, this is absolutely the place you want to go. Frank K.

This place has an outstanding open-door policy where they don't restrict visiting hours, EVER.

These hard-working folks understand what pets mean to people, and you can tell from their gentle care of both the animals AND the humans. They saved my cat's life, and I'll forever sing their praises. Parking around M street can be abysmal. They $10 validate a nearby garage.
