Animal Care Hospital of Morris Inc

Animal Care Hospital of Morris has always been personable. My two dogs are always happy to go see the employees there. They are very helpful when answering my questions in person and over the phone.

I initially felt really good about Dr Nikki; however, after our most recent experience - I’m not so confident. We took our miniature dachshund in as he was struggling to breath. $635 later X-rays, blood work including thyroid, fecal & urine tests were all done. It was determined by the X-rays that he had an enlarged heart. Dr was waiting on test results to determine what heart meds to start him on. 8am next morning I receive a call that she was placing him on Metvedin and Lacix. I could come pick up the Metvedin and a script for the other. $115 for the Metvedin that I could have gotten elsewhere for $75 had they given me the option. Fast fwd to that evening - Kozik is really struggling to breath and I call in. They offer to meet me at the office - which we accepted. Our boy passed away before we got there. He was doa and Dr Nikki apologized stating that she “thought he had more time”. She offered to hold him overnight, and we could pick him up in the morning and take him to Metro to be cremated. We arrive the next morning to pick him up, the receptionist wants me to sign a form giving consent to euthanize. I said no, he was doa. Then she tells me our final bill is $460. I said to store him overnight?!?! No I don’t think so. She returned and changed that amount to $160. We paid in full. The issue I have is, our boy was 24 hours away from death, and she couldn’t tell that at all?!?! She said his blood work looked good!! It’s hard not to feel like we were simply part of the money machine to her rather than a family who deeply loved & cherished their pet. Rest in Peace sweet boy. Kozik 6/1/2008 - 8/3/2022

Dr. Sarah Blair and all the staff are great! They were compassionate and empathetic, when my kitty's fight with diabetes and liver failure, was over. 😭 I would definitely recommend Animal Care Hospital in Morris, IL

My 2yr old dog had a sudden seizure. I called on a Friday afternoon, they got him right in, first visit. Dr. Sarah Blair was wonderful, along with her medical asst. She really listened and waited until the last symptom without rushing nervous me, as seeing the seizure was traumatic. Dr. Blair explained things very well and was gentle and kind. Blood work results were very quick in same visit. They clipped his nails all included in visit. We were very comfortable and will be returning.

Our furry family member had a life threatening emergency….our vet had no openings to help us (!!)….so we started calling elsewhere….first call was to Animal Care Hospital….they told us to come straight over!!….not only did they save our treasured family dog….but also gave us further helpful information that our family vet did not the previous day (our first trip with his injury) They didn’t even know us and totally stepped up to the plate for us….we are eternally grateful, Animal Care Hospital of Morris!!
