  • "Metz Petz, the docs, and the entire staff are caring, competent and, most of all, compassionate human beings who understand our love for our pets. Throughout a history of care and expert grooming for our miniature poodle Reddog, he had nothing but warm, wonderful and professional handling by one and all here.

    During a recent medical crisis, Reddog got the quantity and quality of medical care that I associate with doctors for people. His issues sadly resulted in Reddog not making it, but I can tell you without fear of contradiction that he lived longer only because of the attention (and thoughtful follow-ups) shown by the medics and staff.

    Awarding five stars because it doesn’t let me award five hundred. Strongly, unequivocally recommended."

  • "Both Dr. Metz are wonderful. Dr. Nathan treated my Rocky with such wonderful care and when the day came for him to be put to sleep, he made the process as bearable as possible. I will always be loyal to Metz Petz."

  • "My dogs love both vets here. They helped me figure out what my German Shepard pup needed as far as his diet because he was having horrible stomach problems. He is fine now."

  • "Our fuzzy child, a 170 lb +Neapolitan Mastiff Penny ended up in trouble during labor yesterday. She ended up having a c-section on the remaining 4 puppies. We now have 6 healthy, happy, wrinkly puppies. They explained everything to us, in detail throughout the entire process. Dr. Nathan & Dr. Melissa, Sterling, Casey, Joe and staff all stayed late with no complaints. We couldn't of asked for a more caring staff. Dr. Nathan, followed up again today as well. We appreciate everything you did for and saving Penny and the puppies. We recommend Metz Petz- they see all our fuzzy children. Thank you all so much!"

    Dr. Melissa and Dr. Nate, as well as the entire staff are super easy to talk to and have your pets well-being first and foremost in their mind."

  • "Today we had to make the hardest decision a pet owner has to make. Dr. Nathan came to our home to assist with Cody's departure from this world. He was gentle and caring; he even waited until my wife was able to make it home before administering the medication. As hard as it was to do; Dr. Nathan made it tolerable for all of us. Cody simply fell asleep in his favorite place, next to the pool looking out over the backyard. Dr. Nathan, thank you for making that possible you are a true humanitarian."

  • "I can't say enough great things about Metz! Dr. Nathan and Dr. Melissa have been so wonderful with all my fur babies! More important, Dr. Nathan saved My bulldog's eye by acting quickly and providing professional knowledge for us! Thanks to all their wonderful staff for their hard work and dedication to our fur babies!"
