“Yesterday I had to say goodbye to my little boy. I layed down with him on the floor at DAH for his last hours sobbing that the time had come. I’ve been a client at DAH for 25 years. 3 out of my 5 dogs have had their last moments there as well as the 5 of them getting routine care. Over the last year I have spent a lot of time there. Always greeted with excitement and love by the receptionists, always greeted with kindness and professionalism by the vet technicians when in the exams rooms, and always given wonderful thorough and thoughtful care by the Drs (especially Dr. Anderson). But, it isn’t just those moments that stand out… it’s the little ones… the ones when I am waiting for my pups to come back into the exam rooms… when I hear the staff traveling back and forth doing there work out back… hearing them interact with every animal they are caring for, these people are SPECIAL! Their jobs are not easy… they do it because they love animals and the people who love animals… life isn’t perfect… and none of us are… but, I wouldn’t want another team of people caring for my four legged fur family. I am beyond grateful to each and every staff member. I just got off the phone with Lois who called to check in. You are all angels on earth!”
“Borash Veterinary Clinic is awesome! I have been using them since they opened. They are wonderful with all animals and their owners! You can't go wrong with Borash!!!”
“Saugus Animal Hospital and Dr. Anderson are the very best! I've been bringing my cats there for years and they always go above and beyond. The care they receive is thorough and complete and never rushed. All questions are answered and I recommend them 100%.”
“Dr. Parsley is incredible - the surgery she performed on my boy saved him, and I am forever thankful to her. No matter how many times I called or sent emails, Dr. Parsley or someone from her team replied and was always helpful. Kara C., was the best tech and took so much time with us. I cannot speak highly enough about Mass Vet!”
“Brought my 10 week old lab for her first appointment. Every staff member I met was so kind, courteous, and knowledgeable. We saw Dr. Warman who was very personable yet still very professional. I have nothing but good things to say and would recommend Central Animal Hospital to anyone with a pet.”
“We moved to Boston a last year and were stressed about finding a new vet because we have a 16 year old dog with complex needs and we were very happy with our old vet. I am so glad we found Heal. They prioritize the animal's comfort more than any other vet I have been to and they also really care about the owners too. I absolutely love the email summaries for appointments. It's honestly surprising that this place is not super expensive because of the level of personal care you receive. I wish my doctor was like this!”
“I’m a brand new cat mom, I was worried about sneezing and just in general got her from a shelter wasn’t sure if everything they said was true or not so we went for our first visit. Dakota and Dr. Sam were so great! They were patient and kind. Took the time to answer my questions without making me feel incompetent ? obviously I want my girl Zoey to be healthy and thrive but I am happy to know we have someone to trust and care for her if we need it.POV you just left the vet and you realized your new people love and care about you. After 3 days with us she feels at home.Thank you guys!”
“Dr Farrah was very caring and considerate of my dog I appreciate her kindness and intelligence. other staff were also very helpful and efficient. What I appreciated most about Angell is easy parking and well managed though busy medical center”
“Pinto is a very sweet dog with very high anxiety around veterinary treatment, specifically onset during the COVID pandemic. Back Bay Veterinary Clinic -- and Dr. Graham in particular -- has been SO wonderful in working with us to figure out the best way to make sure he is calm and comfortable so that he can get the care he needs! I recommend Back Bay Vet to ALL of my friends with pets, but especially anyone with a ~* special *~ dog like Pinto.”
“They were able to see us same day for our recently adopted cat. Their staff was incredibly kind and helpful and they followed up over several days to make sure our cat was recovering. Felt really good and would highly recommend them.”
“We are deeply grateful to VCA City Cats Hospital, especially Dr. Palopoli, for the exceptional care they provided to our beloved cat, Meatloaf. Dr. Palopoli is an outstanding vet — incredibly smart, attentive, and deeply compassionate. She has a fantastic bedside manner and truly knows her stuff.
In Meatloaf’s final appointments, she made sure he was comfortable and cared for every step of the way. When the time came to say goodbye due to his age, Dr. Palopoli guided us through the process with so much empathy. She explained everything ahead of time so there were no surprises, and gave us the time and space we needed to be with him. Afterward, she even sent a personalized card that meant so much to us during such a difficult moment.
The rest of the staff was also excellent — always professional, kind, and respectful in every appointment we had. I wish I remembered everyone's names because they all deserve credit for the thoughtful and skilled care they provide.
VCA City Cats is truly a special place, and we’re so thankful for everything they did for Meatloaf and for us. We have two other cats, so we'll be back!”

“I am so happy with the care Dr Jawitz and his staff give to my dog Cosmo. It’s a very caring establishment with outstanding service. I feel very safe and confident in their care.”
“We have been coming for years with our cats and dog and have always loved the care and our pets are given. Recently, however, out beautiful orange kitty Logan, became terminally ill. The care they showed him and the kindness they gave to us, the humans, made it a bit less awful. We got a wonderful note from Dr. Binder after it all happened, and it was much appreciated.”
“staff are professional and very caring toward their clientele.
I have had my dogs going there since 1998 when Joan Barufaldi was still alive. I have always had good experience there even when the difficult time came to say good bye to our former pets. The staff are compassionate and skilled.”
“We saw Dr. McEwan today after moving to Massachusetts from California, and wow. I've never had a vet be so thorough, thoughtful, and informative.
After reviewing our 5-month old pup's records with me, Dr. McEwan spent a solid 10-15 minutes answering questions and giving me breed-specific training advice. For example, when doodles grow up, they often hate getting their paws touched, so Dr. McEwan explained how to desensitize/train our labradoodle for nail cutting.
Truly above and beyond care, and our pup had a great time at the vet.
11/10 would recommend.”
“I would highly recommend Boston Veterinary Clinic. Dr. Joey is incredibly caring and competent, and has been creative in finding ways to make visits for our senior dog as comfortable as possible. The technicians and front desk staff are organized, professional, and accommodating of our needs. Thank you BVC!”

“I can't say enough about the team over there. They say dog is a mans best friend, I think my dog left there today with 5 best friends. Pleasant, professional, and caring. Fantastic experience all around.”
“Dr. Leslie is the absolute best vet we've ever had, and her staff are friendly, caring, and so helpful. Best vet office ever... we wouldn't want to bring our cats anywhere else!”
“Just want to send in a thank you to Dr. Morawski and the team for managing and following up multiple times about my cat’s condition. The whole staff (we have 3 pets) has been nothing but kind and helpful. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a vet in the area.”
“Best place to go. Yes the line may be long but the vets are great!! They are kind and let you know up front how much you have to pay. If you have extra donate to help keep them open. They are a blessing”
“In the past few months I have had to visit Cambridge Street Hospital for my 1 year old dog and 9 year old dog for various different reasons. Each and every time the staff that answer the phones are knowledgeable, helpful and efficient getting my pups seen when needed. They are so kind and welcoming upon our arrival. I have seen two different vets there and they both have been skilled and compassionate and are diligent with their follow up. I highly recommend Cambridge Street Animal Hospital for all your preventative and urgent animal needs.”
“This place is the best. We are first time dog owners, and we have no idea what we are doing. Everyone we have interacted with at South Bay, from vets to techs, has been so helpful and knowledgeable regarding our puppy, particularly around her recent spay surgery. We have met 3 of the veterinarians (Dr. Wosko, Dr. Frye, and Dr. Bower) across both locations, and they have all been excellent. Highly recommend this practice for anyone with a pet in the Beacon Hill or South End neighborhoods!”
“Always a pleasure.
We started going to this vet because of Shiann, and she always is very communicative and helpful when we’re in a pinch.
We had the tech Melissa this week and she was phenomenal.
Thank you for taking such good care of our dog ( and our ) vet anxiety !!!”
“The Burlington Animal Clinic is great. I have been bringing my dogs there for 5 or 6 years. Their service and care are exceptional. I highly recommend them.”
“I've been going to Mill Brook for the past 5+ years, through all the recent personnel changes, and one thing has always been true- they are caring, thorough, and thoughtful. They are always willing to take the time to answer any questions I might have, and I know they adore my pup and only want what's best for him. During his most recent procedures (which were fairly extensive), I never felt pressured to do more/less than what I thought was necessary after getting all the facts from Dr. P. and Dr. Suzanne. I also find it very helpful that they can do everything at this location- echos, ultrasounds, dental work, etc- it makes it very convenient!”

“From the 1am phone call immediately followed by a visit. My fiancé and I felt that our old pup was in good hands. I am especially appreciative of the fact that they didn’t encourage us to do any bloodwork or anything extra since they felt pretty strongly that the symptoms our pretty girl had would subside. Our girl had signs of “old dog” syndrome and happy to report that within a day and a half she appears to progressing. I believe they hit the nail right on the head. Thank you, Dr Kalbko, Patrick and team.”
“Staff @ Animal Hospital are amazing. Care they always provide for Bella Diamond is top notch. Vets techs & ladies @ front desk are so attentive patient & caring. So worth going there. I would highly recommend taking your pets there.”
“This place has always made me and my pups feel welcomed and heard! When we lost one of our fur babies to a hit and run a year ago they were so helpful with everything! Dr. Dunn is amazing with my pups and always remembers them. They love him and are always excited to see him. It is a little expensive but my boys are given great care so they are worth it.”
“I would definitely recommend MSPCA Adoption Center in Boston for anyone in MA who is looking to adopt! Katie helped my mom and I find the perfect dog who completes our family; we had a wonderful experience. She was super thorough during the interview by asking my mom exactly what she is looking for and showing us potential matches. She kindly let us take our time with each potential match to make our decision. After we decided on our puppy, Katie took the time to explain to my mom lots of helpful information on how to care for a puppy (as it had been a while since she’s taken care of a puppy!). She gave us a packet with useful information and assisted us with the supplies we needed. We truly couldn’t have had a better experience! Thank you MSPCA and Katie ❤️”
“Melrose Animal Clinic has such friendly staff and providers! They’re always so sweet and friendly not only to us humans, but they truly care about the pets they’re examining!
Our two cats, Feather and Twinkie, are not fans of vet visits, but they quickly know they’re in good hands as soon as the exams begin. Our Feather is missing a back paw so I really appreciate our provider feeling her leg and joint to ensure Feather has a great life!
The PetDesk app that Melrose Animal Clinic offers is user friendly and helps us keep our appointments and information organized for each kitty! Thank you to all the staff at Melrose Animal Clinic!”
