These folks had great information and wonderful energy for our red heeler, Kip. Chelsey took the time to remove all of the stick mites from Kip’s ears. Thanks, Chelsey!!

I wish that there was a 500 star option! Here is the deal…
I have a chihuahua named Lars who is incredibly scared and skittish. He only lets me touch him. We have been putting off his shots and nail trimming because it seemed impossible and the few times we have tried with other places it failed miserably. Lars was in desperate need so we tried this place. It wasn’t pretty at first…he totally freaked when we passed him over. He peed, pooped, broke a nail off, and made some demon sounds. But Courtney and Dr. Murphy (hope I got his name right) were absolutely incredible. Their calm nature and expertise worked miracles. He didn’t make it easy, no doubt, but they all persevered.
Lars is sitting here by me now with his nails trimmed and his shots. A happy boy. I’m not saying it was easy but these guys are the real deal. They made it happen and we are so grateful. No other place has given him a chance.
500 stars. I highly recommend. Good job guys, we love you!

Sadly, I had my dog (Buddy) , and my cat Honey -Boo - Boo - Kitty (and yes that was her real name.) Anyway, they both passed of old age and when they did, I was devastated. V.C.A. Animal Hospital were able to dispose of their remains in a professional way, and treated me with the utmost sincerity. In closing, even though my pets weren't regular patients, they accepted them and I and that was what I needed. They even gave me paw-prints of both of them. Lastly, when I do decide to get another pet , you can bet I'm taking them to VCA Arroyo Grande Animal Hospital!!! Update: 11/7/2024. Well, I finally decided to adopt again, and as promised I adopted a new 3yo kitty named Rosie from Woods Humane Society. Dr. Sommers was our Dr., and she was phenomenal! Not only her, but the entire staff. From beginning to end of visit, the doc and tech were very calm with Rosie, and gave her tons of treats('cause that's what Rosie wanted) ? Anyway, if you're looking for a very nice vet who takes their time and answers all of your questions this is the place to go. Rosie recommends them as well! Oh, and they sent her home with an awesome goodies bag!!!!

AG Vet Hospital deserves numerous recommendations from my family, so this recommendation will come in 3 parts. We highly recommend Arroyo Grande Vet Hospital for any of your pet's needs. We can not speak highly enough of the entire staff!

1.) Our one year old puppy got into some sort of toxin. We obviously did not know that was the issue initially, and when we called about our puppy not feeling well, their response was "How soon can you be here?" The relief that is felt as a dog parent when you are able to get in that quickly is something I cannot put into words. To have the vet available when you need them is so, so important! Dr. Murphy went above and beyond, along with the vet techs, to help our Australian Shepard. The amount of phone calls Dr. Murphy had to make to keep us updated was unbelievable. But Dr. Murphy always kept us informed and updated. His dedication at trying to find the specific toxin, as well as helping our puppy was remarkable. Sadly, our sweet Australian Shepard, Nasa, did not make it. The kindness and love that was shared by the entire staff at AG Vet Hospital was extraordinary. We appreciated their support at such a difficult time. Dr. Murphy and his staff will always be remembered by our family for their above and beyond support.
2.) A year ago, our family dog was unable to walk. His hips were bad, and they finally gave out to the point we knew most likely we needed to euthanize him. It was a Sunday, and we were SO GRATEFUL that AG Vet Hospital was open. They were so kind and patient with us saying good by to our sweet boy. They helped ease the sadness of our 10 year old daughter by giving her a popcycle to give to our dog as a last treat. The kindness that the staff showed us that morning we will never forget.
3.) A couple years ago, we added 2 pet kune kune pigs to our family. We were so grateful that AG Pet Hospital was able to neuter our boys. Not many vets in the area were willing to do that.

Again, there is no doubt in our family that the best vet hospital is Arroyo Grande Vet Hospital. Please know that you are so, so appreciated.

Bluey received blood work for a procedure next week. Staff is amazing and kind. We love it here. Kiddo loves looking at the rock garden out front to see how many blues clues he can find!

I've been going to VCA AG for a couple of years and I've always loved the friendliness and professionalism of the staff. Recently, I had to put my dog to sleep. The vet was so caring. She explained every step before and during. She gave us time with our dog and let me make every decision. And she gave my dog a last meal of chicken, beef, and chocolate (my request.) As horrible as the situation was, VCA made it easier for me and very comfortable for my baby. I highly recommend them.

This is the place 2 go. They r so caring. I lost 2 of my babies this year. Henry and Gump. They were my world. I didnt think I was going 2 handle losing them. They gave me comfort. When it was time 2 pick up they're ashes, I just sat there and cried. They just closed. They let me sit there as long as I needed.
Thank u VCA.

Thank you, Dr. London ( and the AG VCA staff) for the compassionate care given when we had to say goodbye to our pitt/lab mix Veruca (Ruca). Thanks to Dr. Szamas and the other vets who have seen us though the years.
