Very pleased with boarding experience for our active dog. They quickly found she loved to play fetch while outside. Would definitely recommend.

My beautiful lab has had medical issues since we got him as a puppy and has suffered for 8 years! We have had him at numerous vets and allergy clinics and nothing has worked. Thank GOD for SRAH! Everyone treats Champ like he is their own dog and they love him too. The care we get is second-to-none and thanks to Dr. Brittany Barkley, Staci and everyone at SRAH, we may have found something to help Champ. I highly suggest switching your pet care to SRAH!

Words are not sufficient for thanking Dr. Barkley and her staff for the care and love they poured out to Millie this past year. The knowledge, kindness and concern for her was greatly appreciated. Oh how she loved going to ‘school’. If anyone needs a veterinarian team that truly loves pets and their families, it’s SRAH!
Sincerely,

I recently lost my companion of 18 years and my other Kitty seems so lonely. I decided to go to animal control to just have a look and ended up adopting a new baby today. The compassion I received from Dr Barkley and her staff through that time was more than I ever expected from anyone, much less from my veterinarian. I was concerned about introducing a shelter kitty to the one I have without knowing he was healthy. They welcomed "Luca" and I with open arms. They made the time to see him this afternoon so I could introduce them without worrying. I did have a bit of a wait but the fact that it was

I will not go there again. They do not let you go in with your pet even with a mask. Also I asked not to give worm treatment if she does not have worms and they did it anyway. Too costly. SHE DID NOT HAVE WORMS! I AM NOT NEW TO OWNING DOGS. MY PETS LIVE THEIR LIFE EXPECTANCY. THEY TRIED SAYING OPPOSITE TO WHAT ANOTHER VET HAD TOLD ME ALSO. PRETTY SOON ONLY RICH PEOPLE CAN OWN DOGS. THIS DOG POTTIES OUTSIDE BUT IS A TOTAL HOUSEDOG OTHERWISE. I HAVE KNOW DOUBT THEY ARE COMPETENT. DO NOT APPROVE OF NOT GOING IN WHEN A VERY PROMINENT VET ALLOWS AND SAFE MEASURES ARE USED.

I had to put my buddy down they was very helpful . The cost was very Reasonable .
I also wanted to get one of my other dog fix and they want $800.00. Way too high when you need service for other things. I was goin to keep them as my main vet but I’ll fine someone else. Thank you for caring for my buddy. When he need care the most.

I took my new rescue dog here, and everyone was incredibly sweet and friendly. Everything from calling to get my appointment set up to the instructions for his meds was super smooth and easy. I was worried that he would be aggressive with them because he's never been to a vet before, and expressed my concerns to the vet tech. She was very friendly and responsive, and even came out to me a few minutes after taking him in and told me how he was doing. The doctor was amazing, she listened to my concerns and was very knowledgeable. I wish I had been able to go in with him, but I understand why I couldn

We took our kitty Mickey for routine vaccinations. The staff was very professional and helpful. My daughter has fed Mickey way too many treats. The vet came out to the parking lot and explained Mickey's health and we had to have a talk about his weight. In the last month Mickey has lost a pound! I am a retired Army Military Police Officer and I would highly recommend the professionals at SRAH!
