Services
Dr. Louise Marron, a Colorado native, is a board-certified veterinary dentist. She also provides general medical care for companion animals. With an aptitude for science and a passion for connecting with animals, Dr. Marron recognized Veterinary Medicine was her calling as a young girl. She began working in her home-town veterinary clinic at 13 years of age and has never strayed off the veterinary path.
Because of the shorter lifespan of our pets, we stress the importance of an annual physical examination. Thorough check-ups and preventive care can help alleviate serious health problems. We offer a wide range of veterinary services to keep your companions feeling their best. Our state-of-the-art surgical suite provides for the performance of a wide variety of surgical procedures.
Is your pet showing signs of bad stress and anxiety before arriving at the veterinary office? We are proud to have Fear Free certified professionals on our team and are dedicated to caring for your pet's emotional well-being as well as his or her physical well-being. Ask us if pre-visit sedation or supplements might take the edge off and keep your pet happy and relaxed.
The American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) is an international association of more than 36,000 veterinary care providers who treat companion animals. Established in 1933, AAHA is well-known among veterinarians and pet owners for its high standards in veterinary practices and quality care. AAHA is the only organization that accredits animal hospitals throughout the U.S. and Canada.
The Alpine Animal Hospital team appreciates you taking the time to share your feedback with us. Alpine Animal Hospital takes great care of our beloved golden. They go out of their way to make any and all visits a no-stress experience, using everything from toys, to spatulas of peanut butter, to pure love and happiness for the pups.

My dog needed stitches after tearing a piece of her skin from her body. Louise and the team were amazing. it was later in the afternoon, they stayed until i got there (a camper overturned on my road), took good care of her, got her stitched up. She needed anesthesia so she spent the night. they called later that night to let me know she was doing well after the procedure. When i picked her up they explained aftercare protocol and provided written instructions and all meds. I couldn't have been happier with their compassion, care and service. Laurie

Positive: Professionalism
We have had great experiences at Alpine Animal Hospital. Our cat does not like car trips but this one is well worth the extra time to get there. Extra touches like a cats only room, heating pad on the examining table, and attention to our cats communication all help him get the kind of care that benefit his health.

We came to Alpine Animal Hospital under a very tragic circumstance, when our regular vet was closed. I wanted so badly to hate them, I looked for reasons to blame them. However I could not find any. They were truly amazing throughout the entire process of what was a very difficult time. We will be bringing our animal crew here from now on.

We had a great experience with the Alpine Animal Hosp. They'll couldn't have been nicer or more empathetic to myself or my dog's needs! They really care about these animals and know how we feel about our animals! They emailed after my visit there to check up on how my dog was doing, which felt really good. I don't know of many Doctors offices that do that anymore!!! This was our first time at this Vet! They are our new Vets

Xylitol is lethal and our 6+mo old Australian Shepherd, Summer, ate a full "Ice Cubes" container of gum, which had 8 times the amount of xylitol of other sugarless gums. We called Alpine Animal Hospital. They took our pup in and immediately gave her the professional and loving care she needed. She probably would have died without their care. Once they stabilized her, I took her to Mountain Animal Hospital in Grand Junction where she stayed 2 days over Thanksgiving and Friday. They told me Summer's care at Alpine truly saved her life.There will never be xylitol in my home again. My undying gratitude

After not being able to be seen at two other local vets closer to us, we found alpine vet and we couldn’t be happier. Our pup cut her paw and they took the best care of her! You can tell they really love animals and care for them as if it were their own. We were very happy to have found these guys and thank them for such great and professional service

We took our 5-year-old dog in for a nail trim and his booster shots. Despite telling them that our dog is sensitive to sedatives and that we're unsure how he will react, they gave him the normal dose to sedate him for the nail trimming. He went into cardiac arrest and was effectively dead for over a minute. Yes, we are grateful they did CPR and administered the sedative antidote, but we're shocked they're still charging us $346 for that visit. Nails weren't trimmed and boosters not given. (They did draw blood for a heart worm test.) But honestly - We took him in, he died, was

We were staying in Silt, CO, a small town about 45 minutes from Carbondale, with a senior dog, Sam, who was suffering from an inoperable tumor but who was doing fairly well prior to that point. We had hoped we could make through the summer but it became obvious we were at the point of having to put her down and we found Alpine Animal Hospital as an option for the vet services and the ability to cremate her at the same site so we could continue our vacation and take her ashes home with us.
They scheduled us in right away and were able to take care of the cremation and return her ashes to us in
