Home Veterinary Care

I could never express the gratitude I have for Dr Hottel and her staff at Home Veterinary Care. I would never put my trust elsewhere other than this establishment after the collective experiences I’ve had since acquiring our younger Basset Hound puppy back in November of 2022. In the short 6months I’ve have been blessed to raise this dog I have had I have had a few issues ranging from mild to life threatening. If it wasn’t for the attentiveness of the Vet Tech’s that assisted throughout the appointment, the urgency demonstrated by the Office Receptionists when scheduling the call, and the genuine care/compassion of the DVM at Home Veterinary Care I would have been grieving the loss of my puppy. All of these traits of the staff carry from the core itself being Dr Hottel. It’s not very common in todays world to find the level of care that you receive with every experience here. It’s not the kind of care that only comes with loving what you do but the kind of care that you’d receive from someone that’s truly carrying the weight of your concern every step of the way. What seemed like a visit pertaining to an upset stomach turned into something far worse that resulted in a very serious situation. If the staff had not pushed to get me in as soon as possible; or failed to be patient to complete a proper diagnosis, had not followed proper steps in early process of elimination, contacted a radiologist at an emergency animal hospital, then my puppy would have ultimately passed from a internal and very life threatening situation. Today my puppy is beginning recovery from a successful procedure that was very serious. I’m amazed with the outcome of a bad situation, nothing is ideal when it comes to an emergency. Without going into details we dodged so many factors that could have been fatal to our dog and I can confidently say the only common denominator is the team here. On the road to recovery my girl Laney will be home nagging her basset sister and stopping by to check on her Home Vet Care friends and howling at them in no time hopefully.

I had my first visit here and it was great.!! Dr holder answered all my questions and took her time with me. I have a very nervous kitty when it comes to vets, but my kitty didn’t growl or hiss once as she was being examined. The dr and assistant were very gentle with her and made her feel comfortable. Her assistant seemed very compassionate as he scratched her neck and comforted her while she was being examined by the dr… In the past at previous vets they used towels and were very aggressive with her which made her hiss, growl, and try to attack… but this visit with the new vet was completely calm and comfortable. I couldn’t believe how calm she was and how she let them handle her with no issues.. thank you for the good experience I am so happy to establish myself and my baby with a great vet !

Made my 6 yo poodle initial visit to get established and they got him in within a week and a half pretty, quick to me. The office was very clean & the employees were all nice. As soon as Dr Hottel came in she held her arms out and took him into her arms gave him lovins and adored him. He doesn’t usually let new people do that so I know he felt very safe and comfortable towards her. Dr Hottel was very patient and kind, she answered any questions I had. Her vet tech was very sweet as well. The ladies at check out were welcoming and talking to Toby as if he’d been a patient there for a long time! Overall the whole office from the Dr to the techs to the front desk staff were great I am so glad they were referred to me I know my boy will always be in great hands!

Clean and very professional. Reasonable rates. The tech massaged our cat's head so that he would not feel anxious!

I loved coming here to see Dr. Holder. She is a wonderful, kind, and compassionate veterinarian. When I needed emergency end of life services for my beloved dog Blondie, I called and was told to go elsewhere, because Dr. Holder was no longer there. My dog couldn’t breathe and was in severe distress and pain. I begged Home Veterinary for help, as the other office they instructed me to go to was over an hour away. Blondie passed away, at home , 7 hours later. She suffered needlessly. I have spent mega money at their office, and was not a problematic patient. I am furious over the their lack of empathy. I highly suggest that you do not consider this office for your beloved pets. You are just a paycheck to them.
