    Doctor Diaz and Acevedo helped bring our dog from a 10 Pound rescue to a now 60 pounds of awesomeness
    Mercedes S.

    Both doctors Maria Acevedo and maria Diaz are not only amazing doctors, but are amazing people ! They care about their patients and treat them as if they were their own . These two wonderful doctors and staff have treated my fur babies with love and compassion. I feel blessed to have them as my doctors. Been to other vets in the past that only care about how much money they can charge you during the most sensitive times . These doctors will not take advantage of you when you need them the most . Highly recommend and will never go to anyone other vet . This is an amazing place !

    My Copper has been coming here since he was a puppy. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my bebe. The only "complaint" I have is that their aren't open 24/7 for emergencies because they know what their doing, they have your fur-babies interest at heart and at least with me they've worked with me. Vets are expensive due to the obvious - but I rather pay for good trusted service & care than be cheap with my pets health. He's priceless to me, worth every penny to keep him healthy & happy.

    My pets have been patients of Dr. Díaz and Dr. Acevedo for over four years now. I can honestly say this office is a hidden gem. Their front office staff is friendly, the office is kept pristine, the vet techs are excellent and the Dr.'s are knowledgeable and loving. Recently I had to say goodbye to my 14year old pug. One of the hardest things I've ever had to do. She was my faithful companion and was part of our family. The day I had to say goodbye, I called the office and they squeezed me in. The Dr.'s comforted me and cried with me. Although I left with a broken heart, they gave me comfort and love during this difficult time. They're many veterinarians out there, but few are excellent vets, that show compassion and truly love what they do. I witnessed this personally. They morn their patients and truly care for our pets.

    Hello from Madelyn
    Wayne G.

    We are forever grateful to Dr. Maria Diaz and her staff. One of our dogs (Madelyn) became very ill and would not eat or move from her bed. We brought her into Dr. Diaz's clinic as new patients as we had heard great things about the clinic. We were desperate for help and Dr. Diaz took are very systematic & thorough approach to diagnose and treat her illness. Starting on a Monday with injections and moving onto blood work & X-rays, she was able pinpoint an internal infection. She prescribed effective medication to resolve the issue and slowly our loved one came around with improvements by Thursday and full recovery after 6 days. When Madelyn started running around with her toy in her mouth and eating again, we knew she was well & happy. Dr. Diaz is a caring professional who is very nice & compassionate to both pets & family members. In closing...even though cost was not a determining factor for us, Dr Diaz was very flexible in proving her services & meds that were reasonable and priced fairly. We got great care & value for our loved one and will return to her clinic again. Thank you!

    I highly recommend this clinic I was very worried about my Puppy and they took me rite away and they did multiple tests to see what was wrong they didn't over charge me . Super friendly easy to talk to and easy to ask questions about your Pet . The prices are fair and they do not do anything with out giving you a full break down First of what there doing and get your approval

    The actual bill which included several additional costs they purposely failed to include when I asked for an estimate a week prior.

    I was really excited to bring my 5-month-old golden retriever, Murphy, in for his trial day after…read morespeaking with a very kind staff member on the phone. They explained that the dogs play all day, have activities, are separated by temperament, and that puppies are carefully monitored. This gave me peace of mind since I had concerns about his joints, breaks, and being around larger dogs since he's just a baby. When I dropped him off, the man at the desk was also professional and explained that Murphy would receive a temperament assessment around lunchtime, and I'd get a call afterward with an update. He said I could either pick Murphy up then or leave him longer depending on how things went. Unfortunately, I never received a call or text. When I finished work and called them, the woman who answered was short and unenthusiastic -- she simply said, "Oh yeah, we have Murphy. He's in with the dogs, he's fine." Her tone left me uneasy. When I arrived, I found Murphy sitting off to the side in the large dog area, panting and looking unhappy. The dogs in the group were very large, and one was jumping excessively on top of other dogs (I'm talking like a kangaroo. 6ft in the air. The dog should be named jelly bean). Murphy, normally playful and confident, seemed timid and off. To make things worse, he was completely soaked -- his belly, legs, tail, everything. The floor of the play area was covered in large puddles of liquid, and while the staff member tried to tell me it was just "water from the hose," it was clearly urine. Once home, it was undeniable from the smell that he had been sitting and lying in urine (possibly mixed with feces). I was told dogs are only walked once a day and use a grass area outside. From what I saw, the indoor space has no toys or stimulation, and the floors are left wet with urine throughout the day. This means the dogs are essentially playing and laying in filth for hours. I left with Murphy timid, drenched in urine, and completely unlike his normal happy self. When I raised concerns, I was met with a dismissive response rather than care or reassurance. While I was in the lobby, I actually asked other people dropping off their dogs if they would recommend this place, since I was so concerned. To my surprise, they said they would. So perhaps some dogs are less sensitive to the environment, need less enrichment, or hygiene isn't as much of a concern to their owners. It's possible I caught the facility on a bad day. I am grateful this was a free trial because I would not have paid for such substandard care. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I will not be bringing Murphy back. I sincerely hope the facility improves its sanitation, communication, and oversight, because the way the dogs are kept now is unacceptable. - I felt providing an update on this review is important for anyone considering bringing their pup to DogTown. After I picked Murphy up from daycare and wrote my initial review, he slept for hours and hours. When he finally woke up, he had developed a severe limp in his front leg. The limp worsened, and he ended up at the vet today. Thankfully, there are no broken bones, but the vet believes it's either a soft tissue injury or a hairline fracture. This almost certainly came from the rough play that's allowed at Dog Town, as Murphy had no issues prior and had just been cleared at the vet the week before during routine vaccines. My poor 5-month-old puppy is now on pain medication and sedation so we can keep him practically on bed rest while we hope his injury heals on its own. The vet also noticed a growth on his lip, which is canine papilloma virus. While I can't say with 100% certainty that it came from here, research shows it's commonly spread in dog daycare and boarding facilities, and the timing makes it very possible. With both of these things, I truly wish I could rate this place negative five stars.

    I don't usually leave negative reviews, but this place has let me down more than once. I've brought…read moremy two small dogs here over the years only when I had no other option, even though the price is already pretty high at $135 a day. 1. On one stay, my dog was actually bitten by another dog. The only thing they offered was a 10% discount, which barely touched my $800 bill. It didn't feel like they took the situation seriously at all. 2. They also signed me up for their membership to give me some small perk, and when I tried canceling it a month later, it turned into a whole ordeal. I had to reach out multiple times just to get it taken care of, which was ridiculous. 3. And then recently, I booked a short stay on a Monday and wasn't told it was non-refundable. When I asked for a refund two days later, the owner wouldn't give it and only offered credit. I explained that I've already had several issues with them, but it didn't seem to matter. The lack of transparency was on their end, yet I was the one stuck with the loss. At this point, I honestly regret ever bringing my dogs here. The owners seem more interested in sticking to their policies than actually listening to customers or owning up to their mistakes.

When I arrived to pick him up, I was charged $120 with no prior warning. The explanation? His size, knots in his fur, and a keratin treatment I never requested or approved -- none of which were communicated to me beforehand so I could decide. The person in charge also justified the price by saying other places charge $170, so $120 was a deal. That may be true, but it doesn't make it okay to add charges without telling the customer first. When I calmly said this might be my last visit, the person in charge responded rudely, saying they were moving soon so it didn't matter. After 4 years of loyalty, that response said everything. No pricing transparency, unauthorized add-ons, and zero respect for long-term customers. I would not recommend this place.

    I typically take my dog to a trusted family friend for grooming, but due to a busy schedule and…read moremultiple events, I decided to try this place for a quick bath, nail trim, and sanitary cleaning. Big mistake. Right after her visit, I discovered she had developed two fungal ringworm spots. In her four years of life, she has NEVER had any skin issues, not once. This was the very first and it came immediately after being groomed here. Ringworm is highly contagious and extremely difficult to treat. Not only has this become stressful and time consuming, but it has impacted her well being and my ability to interact with her normally. I am devastated. For a grooming facility to allow something like this to happen shows a serious lack of sanitation and hygiene protocols. I am disgusted and extremely disappointed. I have completely lost trust in this place and will make sure other pet owners are aware. Your pets' health and safety should always come first...do NOT take your dog here.

Would give zero stars if possible. They hurt my poor puppy-shaved and burned and cut him with their clippers. I called them because he was going into shock and the receptionist told me to take him to a vet and they'd pay - they have insurance for that. They gave me the run around and now refuse to keep their promise-I don't care anymore because my puppy is OK-thank goodness! But I wanted to be sure to warn anyone else who may consider this business. DON'T! As of 10/27: And in response to Nicholas below-he is no it being truthful, and he knows it. All of my neighbors will attest to the bleeding and cuts when I picked up my dog - they knew it and the front desk clerk, Astrid, told me to get medical care and she would pay. All they did was give me the run around about the reimbursement. And I was promised a phone call from Nicholas from whom I have not heard from to date. Out and out animal abuse and they know it! Won't take responsibility so don't take the chance with your pet....

They used a shampoo that made her itch and then tried to upsell me on another shampoo. The cost is not the issue. The fact that they cannot do the work properly is.
