The care and compassion this place has shown my dog is unbelievable. She needs some extra TLC when she needs her shots and they stepped right in. I am sad that they are closing but hopefully we will find some place that does the same kind of care in the future.

We rescued our beloved dog, Ozzy, from the shelter, and while he’s full of love, he’s always been fearful of new places and experiences. Thanks to Pleasant Hills Hospital’s Fear-Free Victory Program, Ozzy has been able to stay up to date on his vaccines and routine exams without stress or fear. We are incredibly grateful to the entire staff, and we want to give a special shoutout to Rachael, the behavioral therapist, whose training and compassionate care have made all the difference. Because of her expertise and dedication, Ozzy has had fear-free visits to the vet—something we never thought possible! Thank you, Pleasant Hills Hospital, for making a world of difference in Ozzy’s life.

We've been taking our Shih Tzu to Pleasant Hills Pet Hospital since her rescue 5 years ago and have always been very pleased with how she's been cared for by the terrific and caring doctors and tech personnel. Good communication and updates about vaccinations due and annual check-ups. Wouldn't go anywhere else!
