Both Docs are great! Techs too. Dr. Pulver was recommended when we first moved here and we're so grateful for having met him.

When someone calls and asks a question the person answering the phone should answer the questions in full and not condescending. I did that job for 25 years and never had a complaint. Do not be disrespectful to potential clients coming to your office. read more

We have only been seeing Dr. Schneider here at Timberline for a few months, but right away we knew that we had made a wonderful choice. A few days ago, we had to make the very difficult decision to help our sweet little Tinker to cross the Rainbow Bridge. Debbie at the front desk, was so kind and caring when I spoke with her that morning and we were able to come in that afternoon. Dr. Schneider and Cole, her assistant, showed such love and concern for our sweet Tinkie, and very gently helped her to leave this earth for her new Heavenly Home. What was a very difficult situation , became much, much easier with all of the loving care Tinker, my husband, and I received that afternoon. We love and appreciate everyone here at Timberline Animal Hospital. Thank you all for everything you have done! read more

Racist! I had a nasty experience there. To the comments, the doctor, front desk. It may not be blatant as a slur but just as offensive and unprofessional. read more

I absolutely love Timberline Animal Hospital. Dr's Pukver and Schneider are wonderful. They get on the floor with my pups, at their level and do what they need to do in a very loving and compassionate way. I have complete confidence with both of them and their staff is equally awesome!! read more

Can't say enough good things about this place. So grateful for them and the care they give our animals. We have been patients here for over 10 years. read more

We have followed Dr. Pulver since his days at Sierra, both vets at Timberline are amazing, have always done their best to squeeze in unplanned visits and are thorough. Additionally - nice touch to finally have a doc who (although is very busy) actually remembers our dogs! New office is an awesome upgrade, very pleased with every part of their care.

My family has been with Timberline from the very beginning, back when the old location was still Silver Hills. Recently, my father had to be put on a waiting list for our 13 year old pup who has not been doing well, no problem. However, his condition worsened and we had no choice but to get him in with another vet to be seen sooner. After multiple tests and scans, diagnosed him with liver cancer and we learned he doesn't have much longer left. This news has been devastating to our family. Today, my father called Timberline to share the news and be taken off of the waiting list since we had to make an emergency decision to take our pup elsewhere. The girl who took the call was extremely rude, essentially ridiculed my dad, and made it out to be that we have inconvenienced them because they had to "call for backup". WE HAD NO CHOICE, IT WAS AN EMERGENCY!!!! There are several choice words I could say about this interaction and the chick working the desk, but I'll keep it professional.... In a time when we are expecting to say goodbye to our beloved pup soon, Timberline's front desk staff showed no consideration and were rude, unprofessional, and ill-hearted. After many wonderful years with Timberline and formerly Silver Hills, I am disgusted with this lack of compassion displayed by their worker and will be putting our trust and loyalty towards a different vet office from now on. read more

New to the area and the Greyhound Rescue group in Reno highly recommended this Veteranary. Even though Covid made inside waiting we were fine. Wait was not long and staff was professional and friendly. Happily our fur baby fine. Found our Veternary! read more

Friendly and professional staff. Dr. Snyder is incredible. She answers all my questions (with patience, I have a lot of them) and is very informative. I definitely felt like I was a part of the decision-making process. And she never made me feel bad for choosing specific lower-cost options. Making timely appointments is easy. Even when I had to call back the very next day to verify the time of my appointment because I have the Teflon Brain™. Absolutely recommend Timberline (and Dr. Snyder) to anyone who needs medical care for their furry family member. read more

I had taken my dog to countless of vets in the Northern Nevada and Northern California area for special care and am so happy I found Dr. Pulver. Him and his staff are very compassionate and truly just want what's best for you and your pet! I've never felt rushed or ignored coming here. He answers all my questions and was there for my dog till the end! Finding a vet who is very knowledgeable and compassionate towards your pets needs is rare! Dr. Pulver is absolutely amazing! Highly recommended! read more

I love the staff here. Upon walking in, my dogs are always greeted by name and they get us into a room as soon as it's available. The rooms are spacious, rather than the tiny little boxes that you're shoved into in most other vet practices. The vet techs are always gentle and try to make my pups as comfortable as possible. Dr. Pulver is always extremely patient and answers any and all questions/concerns I have. He's never rushed and always takes his time explaining anything you'd like to know about. After being brushed off at so many other places, this will always be my go-to. It's nice to feel welcomed! read more

I just walked in to see about changing my vet from Lake Tahoe CA to Carson City. I was told by the receptionist that they are not taking any new patients as they are "crazy busy". There was one car in the parking lot, no one in the waiting room, no sounds of animals from beyond the waiting room, and one patient pulling into the parking lot as i left. read more

The most compassionate, kind, and highly competent Veterinary doctors and staff I've ever encountered. This place was highly recommended to me by people whose opinions I trust and value and they weren't wrong. My dogs and I could not have been treated better. I had heard only wonderful things about Timberline and I have only wonderful things to say from my personal experience. read more

I just wanted to say that this vet is so awsome and they take there time to get to know your pet before anything!!! I got both of my dogs microchips and my male dog fixed!!!! If you want a vet that you and you animal can bond with then this is the place!!!! read more

I have been a client of Dr. Pulver for many years. Dr. Pulver is a wonderful, kind and caring vet. He was our vet when he was working at another vet hospital in town and I was very sad when he left to open a practice in Reno. Now that he is practicing in Carson City again, I returned to him with my girl that suffers from Addison's Disease. He was very caring and took the time to let her warm up to him before handling her. He was very patient and addressed my concerns about care for my girl if he was on vacation or at any time his office was closed. I highly recommend this practice. read more

I'm not a veterinarian but as a physician I can get a sense of the abilities of a Vet. I am very impressed with Dr Pulver. In my encounters, he has shown a phenomenal fund of knowledge accompanied by a great bedside manner. I have transferred all my pets to this caregiver. read more

This place is great. We made an appointment the same day I called. Everyone is very courteous and respectful. Dr. Pulver was patient and very informative. We wanted and anti-anxiety medication to calm down our dog for long drives back to the bay area. Dr. Pulver informed us of all of our options to reduce our dog's anxiety and told us the side effects of the medication we wanted unsolicited. He and his assistant made their best efforts to make our little barky dog happy and comfortable. The doctor even sat down on the floor so my dog could thoroughly check him out. His friendly, open personality and the fact that he received his doctorate from Cornell made us very comfortable entrusting our dogs' health with him. Unlike other vets we have been to, this practice was very friendly and the staff seemed to really care. read more

I recently moved to the Carson City area from Chicago, and my fur baby didn't take the relocation so well. I immediately took him to Dr. Pulver to put my mind at ease and rule out something more serious. I could not be more happy with the choice I made to take him to this office. Dr. Pulver and his staff surpassed all my expectations for customer service, attention, communication, and compassion. All of my questions were answered by the knowledgable staff, and I walked out amazed by the care as well as the cost efficiency of the visit and medication. To my surprise, Dr Pulver even followed up the next week by phone. This office gets five stars all around, as it is definitely the best veterinary care I've ever received. read more

The staff at Dr. Pulvers office are always so pleasant and polite the doctor great to my pets really like him

What an incredible experience! I have a very timid and skittish dog but the staff and assistants here made her feel comfortable enough to come out of her shell and be her wonderful self. They have definitely made one happy dog and one happy owner!! Lilly bug and I will definitely be coming back!! read more

We brought our very old black lab in for a humane end of life. She had a very large tumor that other vets insisted had a surgery-only course of action & made us feel guilty that the financial side of it played into our difficult decision. Thanks to great reviews here we went to Timberline for one more consultation. He was the first of the 3 we'd visited to not only suggest letting go, but to make us feel like it was the more responsible decision than a risky $1,000+ surgery. There were many tears shed, but he & his staff were remarkably patient as our children all said goodbye & snuggled her as she took her last breaths. The following week a personalized condolence card came in the mail... top notch, Dr. Pulver. As long as you're in town you will always be our vet. No more shopping around. Thank you. read more

I have a chocolate lab/shar pei mix who suffers from a disorder called Familial Shar-Pei Fever (FSF), which is a hereditary inflammatory disorder. Dr. Pulver is amazing and has gone above and beyond to help me understand this disorder and to help my boy lead a full happy life. Anytime I have questions, concerns, or when my boy has an episode Dr. Pulver calls me back right away! I travel from Reno to Carson just to see him and would not consider taking my fur babies anywhere else! I highly recommend Dr. Pulver!! Great staff too! read more

Incredibly rude. I tried to make an appointment for my dog and they made the appointment only to call my mother to let her know they would not see me or my dog because my parents switched vets. I can't believe them. Been going there for over a year and because my mom, who I don't live with,left them they refused to see me. read more

I have lived in Carson (recently relocated to Reno) for 3.5 years and this is by far one of the top vets I have visited. Very knowledgeable, concerned and kind to both my dog and me. The atmosphere is very "down to earth" and you don't feel like you are walking in to a huge hospital. Dr. Mike is very thorough and makes sure you have all of your questions answered before you leave. read more

Lying, conspiring staff. I simply called to ask about the cost of my puppy's 2nd already scheduled vaccine appt. and was rudely told I didn't have an appt. on that day by someone who did not first check the clinic appointment schedule to confirm. She aggressively argued that I was wrong, insisting it was too soon for the 2nd vaccine. I asked her to please check their schedule and when she saw I was right she hung up on me. I called back to ask who I last spoke to and was rudely lied to with... "We don't know who you spoke to" and then a moment later "It was me" from the same person. Okay... sure. I had to ask twice "Who is me?" before being given the wrong name. Their office manager calls the next day to tell me they excused me from their practice, since the two girls conspired together and made up lies that I yelled and cursed at them... It's concerning, the lies they will fabricate and the lengths they will go, to protect each other, wow! As it turns out, I spoke to Alicia initially, Lisa the 2nd time when she lied saying "it was me," lastly, Sharon colluded with them and lied too. Perhaps this was God's way of showing that this is not a place to entrust with the care of my beloved baby girl. Again... "Thank you!" read more
