Walnut Creek Animal Hospital & Pet Resort

A caution right off the bat: If you have a dog that is cat aggressive and/or has a strong prey drive, there is an office cat (a very cute and friendly one) here that roams the lobby freely, so be careful with that.

I am extremely thankful to have found this vet clinic and Dr. Mackenzie. My dog had significant trauma from previous vet experiences. I am always on the hunt for people (vets, groomers) who are willing to take the proper time and care with my dog and not rush things. My experience with the staff here was ideal.

Both the vet tech and Dr. Mackenzie reassured me they are certified fear-free (which they voluntarily shared with me, I didn't even ask!). This was a huge relief, as so many vets do not properly understand dog body language, behavior, and psychology (even though all will claim they do).

They both were very patient with my dog and with my questions/concerns, very informative, and everything went smoothly. The billing was clear, priced within reasonable expectation, and the facility seemed nice and clean. I couldn't be happier with my experience. This will 100% be my go to vet now, as long as I'm in the area!

Thank you!

This was our first time there. The nurse, tech and doctor listened to all our concerns. They were all very good with Maka making her feel comfortable and safe in a new place.

Great place! We have taken our dogs here for about 10 years now. The staff always treats us with kindness and are great to our dogs. We trust them completely for all sizes and breeds. We have GSPs (50lbs), All-American Breeds (35lbs), ShihTzu (7lbs), and a Yorkie-poo (4lbs).
