My spouse and I have been to Family Animal Care in Ottumwa three times so far (9/21/2023,…read more10/18/2023, and 11/8/2023). Our first visit was a last-minute emergency appointment for our cat Sophie who was having stomach problems. Kaitlyn, a Veterinary Assistant, was very kind and helpful. Dr. Drew White, a Veterinarian, was extremely professional, thorough, kind, and compassionate. He expertly diagnosed Sophie's problem and gave us some medicine that helped her feel better. Our second and third visits were vaccine appointments for all three of our cats. One of our cats hates riding in the car, and she made a mess in her carrier on the way to the vet. We didn't ask or expect anyone to do this, but Chloe, a Veterinary Assistant, offered to clean the carrier for us. My spouse and I were amazed by her proactive helpfulness and kindness. We appreciate you, Chloe! Dr. Drew White and Chloe were exceptionally friendly, helpful, and attentive during both of our vaccine appointments. Dr. Drew White answered all of my questions clearly and thoroughly, which I appreciated very much. He has a great "bedside manner". The high quality care our cats have received (as well as the high quality service we have received) influenced my spouse and I to switch from our old vet to Family Animal Care. Even though it's a longer drive, it's totally worth it for us. In my experience, Family Animal Care's prices are fair and reasonable. We're so grateful for their awesome staff and facility. Thank you, Family Animal Care!

I can't say enough good things about Dana's Dogs. Our Beagle LOVES to go and spend the night or…read morethe day playing with her friends. It's like going to camp for her. She is well fed and well loved during her stay. She has nap time to help rest up for the next outdoor play festival. (Don't know if she actually sleeps, but it is a chance for everyone to catch their breath.) She has a separate kennel for sleeping when she stays overnight. Her family pitches in with lots of cuddles, too. We have recently moved and think we may have found a place to take Gracie, but it's not nearly as much fun as Dana's. I will always enlist her services when we are in the area. I don't think there is a better place for Gracie.

We were not sure how Phoenix would do because he's never been to a dog sitter, I was nervous of the unknown, not of her abilities. We went and met her with Phoenix, and I was impressed with Dana. Phoenix had a wonderful time, she sent pictures throughout the weekend of him, he was very well taken care of and cared for, he got spoiled some more, made new friends, I cannot recommend Dana's enough! She and her family were awesome with Phoenix, and I loved seeing the pictures of him interacting with other dogs. Thankyou Dana's Dog Sitting and Boarding! Check them out on Facebook!

She went in for a routine procedure on her ear and one week later she is gone. Her lab work prior to surgery was great and after the surgery it went south, what's that tell you. I went to Eastview for 32 years and used to swear by them. Beth Doggett was the best vet I ever dealt with anywhere with great compassion and love of animals. Since her retirement this place is circling the drain from the front desk to the back. My dog went in as healthy as a horse and came out weak and dying. Took her back in within the week and they admitted her. I went in on wed to see her and took one look at her and knew she was done. I took her to Cedar Rapids and the next day I had to say goodbye., breaks my heart~ negligence and not paying attention . I have no idea why Dr Jan did not say we have a big problem. They were going to just let her die in that cage. This is a very poorly run facility as far as I can see and getting worse by the day. Jan needs to open her eyes to what's going on. I will never forget or forgive her for losing my beloved Ronni. She said she wants to "learn from this"? Didn't know I was paying fees for a vet school And at my dogs life's expense? I pulled my files today and told her to never send me any correspondence. I actually had a call from Jan tonight . Funny how I didn't hear from her until Ronni was gone. Wanted to know if she could send a condolence card. What for~ damage was done. I would not take my hamster to this place. If your pet needs any procedure or surgery of any kind PLEASE think twice. If I would have switched vets when Beth retired Ronni would still be alive - I will never forgive myself. They will NEVER EVER get a damn dime from me again and I used to be a big customer spending a lot of money a year. Oh by the way my other lab had the same procedure done a year ago and she almost died after going into a seizure. I'm so done with this joke of a facility, find a different vet people!
