Veterinarians in Apple Valley, MN

“Doctor Hunt and his staff are well equipped and knowledgeable about all their furry friends. They definitely care and love what they do. They are honest and compassionate. I appreciate how they have taken care of our three pets.”

“We've been clients of East Valley for about 26 years with our 2 dogs (one died at 16+ years and the other at 14+ years) and our grown children's cats. They are thorough, compassionate, have stellar certifications and accommodate client's timing as much as they are able. They do not push special treatments and take the time to give options that you can decide from. Staff is wonderful and knowledgeable.”

“We’ve been bringing our puppy here since the day we adopted him from the shelter, and from the very beginning, the care and kindness we’ve received have been exceptional. The entire team has always made us feel welcomed and supported throughout this journey.

Dr. Jessica has been incredibly helpful, taking the time to thoroughly explain everything regarding Kylo’s health and providing valuable training recommendations to help us give him the best possible start. Her patience, professionalism, and genuine care truly stand out.

Kylo is always excited every time we arrive, which says so much about the love and positive attention he receives from everyone there. We’re very grateful to have found such a compassionate and dedicated veterinary team.

Thank you!”

“Although I ended up at SMAEC unexpectedly and sadly had to say goodbye to my sweet cat, we received great care here. Everyone I interacted with was so kind and comforting. I appreciated everyone’s kindness and willingness to go above and beyond to offer support and care. Thank you to all SMAEC staff for what you do and the care you provide, especially during moments of heartbreak.”

“I was very nervous about my dog getting aggressive with the tech since we haven't really done a lot of shots before and he's more on the stranger danger side. But the tech was very calm, slow and did an amazing job with my dog. Held him gently, but firmly and talked nice to him. My dog was very nervous I could see him shaking from across the room and he didn't even growl at him. Didn't get the tech's name, but was very impressed.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Apple Valley Banfield saved my dog’s life!

We brought in our middle-aged rescue mix for a routine nail trim and anal gland expression. During the procedure, the vet tech noticed something unusual and immediately brought it to the attention of the veterinarian. They recommended a biopsy, and Banfield went above and beyond to help us move up our renewal so the biopsy could be done at the same time as his dental cleaning while under anesthesia.

That decision made all the difference. The biopsy revealed an aggressive form of colon cancer — but because it was caught so early, our dog was able to have surgery and complete chemo treatments through a specialist vet. Banfield has continued to be an incredible partner, coordinating closely with the oncology team and providing regular checkups to support his recovery.

He just finished his last round of chemo, and we’re now moving into the monitoring stage. I will always be grateful to the Apple Valley Banfield team for their attentiveness, quick action, and genuine care. Without them, we would never have caught this in time.”
