“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Wasatch Exotic Pet Care.
We rushed our one-year-old leopard gecko, Summer, to them during one of the hardest days our family has experienced. From the moment we walked through the doors, every member of their team treated both Summer and our family with genuine compassion, kindness, and respect.
Dr. Laurel Harris took the time to perform a thorough examination, carefully explain every finding, and answer every question we had. She never rushed us or made us feel like “just another appointment.” Instead, she treated Summer with incredible dignity and gave us the information we needed to make the most compassionate decision for her.
Although the outcome was heartbreaking, I am deeply grateful for the honesty, empathy, and professionalism we received. The medical records were exceptionally thorough, and Dr. Harris took the time to explain the cause of Summer’s condition and educate us so we could understand exactly what had happened. Even in one of the most emotional moments of our lives, we felt supported, heard, and genuinely cared for.
The staff showed so much compassion towards us, who were devastated by the loss of our beloved pet. They recognized that Summer wasn’t “just a gecko”—she was a cherished member of our family. That kindness meant more than words can express.
While I wish our story had ended differently, I am incredibly thankful that Summer’s final moments were spent in the care of people who clearly have a passion for exotic animals and the families who love them.
If you have an exotic pet, I wholeheartedly recommend Wasatch Exotic Pet Care. Their knowledge, compassion, honesty, and professionalism are second to none.
Thank you, Dr. Harris and the entire Wasatch Exotic Pet Care team, for treating Summer with such kindness and for helping our family through one of the most difficult days we’ve had. We will never forget your compassion.”
“My dogs love coming to Puppy Preschool with Harleigh and Puppy Socialization with Kris. The trainers treat my dogs with kindness and respect. Abby and Max have become so much more confident. Whenever we pull up in the parking lot, my dogs are so excited.”
“I love this vet! Both Dr. Weimer and Dr. Van Wagoner are wonderful to work with. From the front desk staff, who are so knowledgeable and helpful, and somehow seem to remember everything about my puppy, Cora, each time I call, to the clean and quiet exam rooms, I actually enjoy bringing Cora in for exams. And Cora enjoys it, too! She loves all the attention, love and care that she gets from the staff here. She basically sprints in the door to say hi to everyone. The staff answer questions thoughtfully and thoroughly and are clearly providing the best advice for both pets and their owners. So glad that I found this vet!”
