Our Reviews
“My dog was seen right on time. All precautions for COVID-19 were observed.
I am grateful my pet was able to receive excellent care despite everything going on. I did not comment on cleanliness because I didn’t go in due to precautions. Thank you.”

“I am very grateful they saw my dog on a Saturday morning as I was concerned about his sore paw. They were great. I was seen quickly, everything was explained clearly and I was out in no time. Overall a very positive experience.”

“We’ve been taking our doggies to CSHA for 19 years. Julie, Holly and their staff feel more like family. We’ve been through a lot with our 3 beagles. No matter what is going on in the office they make time for us with patience and kindness.“
- Caren
“I can’t imagine more professional, competent and caring people anywhere. You dot the “i”s and cross the “t”s, and you love my dogs almost as much as I do. The fact that my dogs race in when we visit, tells it all. Thank You.“
