We absolutely love Rivertown. We brought our cat for an emergency and she had never been so comfortable at a vet so we switch all our animals here. They are so patient with our anxious dog and answer questions over the phone. They spend time talking through everything and we just appreciate them so much. Dr Rutledge and Dr Howe are the best!!

I had such a welcoming experience from the moment I walked in to checking out from my appointment. Kelso was so excited and enjoyed meeting the associates! The tech Nichole was so informative and asked all the right questions along with answering any of my own. The Dr. made my dog feel very comfortable and I didn’t feel rushed throughout the entire visit. I feel like I got my moneys worth and would recommend River town animal hospital to friends and family!

I have taken my furry family to see Dr. Carrie Howe for the last five years. I have 3 rescued cats and 2 rescued dogs, and they like to keep us on our toes. Dr. Howe is amazing. She’s friendly, patient, and respectful of pets and their owners. Her bedside manner is stellar and her vet tech staff mirror her professionalism and high standard of care.I also want to put a shout out here for Christa who works the front desk. She was the first person we ever met at the practice when we moved to Minnesota, and she’s seen us through a lots of ups and downs. Her empathy and kindness cannot be overlooked, as the front line of customer service desk staff sees all the happy babies and all the sad goodbyes.

My pets have been going to Rivertown for years, and have enjoyed great care from all of the staff there. Just a few days ago we had two new puppies to our family and never once thought about going anywhere else. I’m always confident that my dogs are getting the best possible care, and that the doctors and care team, consult with me about options and costs in advance.

This is probably my favorite vet I've used in almost 20 years of having dogs. I have met multiple vets and they are all wonderful, compassionate, and understanding, especially when it comes to my dogs. My most recent dog is very nervous when it comes to vaccinations and doesn't like to be restrained. The vet, tech, and front desk staff are all so kind and understanding to him. No matter which person I schedule with I know they will be kind and understanding. They have multiple strategies to help dogs feel safer and feel less pain when getting vaccinated. I really appreciate all they have done for my dogs!

Everyone was personable. The vet tech. was informative. The veterinarian was very caring toward my two kittens. I came away feeling informed about the next steps in their health care.

The staff from the receptionist, assistant and veterinarian were incredibly caring and listened to my concerns for my mini dachshund. Felix is doing so much better! Thank you!

We have had cats for nearly 40 years, and a lot of vets in that time. The Rivertown vets and staff are by far the best we have experienced. They are always gentle, kind, and patient when taking care of our cat. They provide us with all the information and options we need to make the best decisions for our cat. We couldn't recommend them more highly!

Where do you start when someone has saved your dog's life? We started seeing Dr. Rutledge last Fall. Our dog Axle was a very sick boy with just being diagnosed with diabetes and severe digestive problems. Axle's still with us and enjoying life. He reached his ninth birthday on Valentines Day. He'll never be cured of course, but without the care Dr. Rutledge has given him and, may I say Emily with her proficiency in drawing blood, and the other techs too that have cared for him, we would not still be hugging the love of our life. We would not think of taking a pet anywhere else. You guys are the best.

Over the years have been to a few animal hospitals and this one by far is my favorite. I had a cat with a medical emergency and they were the ONLY center that stepped up and made the time to help my kitty immediately. I will never forget that. .. They truly are sensitive and caring.

Rivertown Animal Hospital is wonderful in caring for our cats (and the people that care for them) over the past 15+ years. The vets and techs and all that work there are so professional, pleasant and accommodating. We are thankful to be able to trust them with our pets - for routine and not-so-routine visits!

They helped my elderly shih tzu when I needed them most. Because they made an appointment available when I needed them most, we have been bringing our other dog their too. The vet techs truly cared for my pups and showed me a few tricks for training my doodle puppy. Additionally, they worked directly with my insurance company to send in paperwork I needed to file for reimbursement.
