Carey and Kari, CVT were amazing! They called ahead of time to get background, showed up at our home. and were super responsive. They were engaged, listening, and very knowledgeable. They provided options and considerations in my pup's care. I used this service in a pinch, but I think they will be my preferred vet from now on.
