I can’t even put in words how amazing all the staff are at Upper Ottawa Animal Hospital….my Miss Willy ( my little black kitty almost 22 years old) had the best care, they always went above and beyond….even after it was time for my FurBaby to cross the Rainbow Bridge….I received a letter from OVC Pet Trust…In memory of my Miss Willie, they made a… donation to OVC Vet Trust at the Ontario Veterinary College, University of Guelph. If you are in need of a Vet…I highly recommend Upper Ottawa Animal Hospital. !!!!! Thank you for Everything…. Jolene

We called several vet offices to find one who saw guinea pigs. This place is the place to go to for guinea pig visits! They were able to fit us in with only a 24 hour wait, gave our little George a full exam and tended his little issue. We got to speak directly to the vet who oversaw George’s care. Friendly staff who listened to all details of George’s home care and the situation we wanted checked by the vet. Quite reasonable for fees also. They also booked a phone call appointment for a month from now to follow up and make sure George is still doing well. Hopefully we won’t need to take

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Reliability, Responsiveness
Everyone that works at the clinic has a professional attitude and kind heart. The doctor also works with exotic pets and he is very thorough with his patients. Every time I have called they have fit me in and explained in detail what is needed and next steps for my pet. I 1000% recommend them as a clinic!

Today was my first time going to this vet, I am beyond pleased with the care my two skinny pigs received. Amazing vet and staff members. The vet himself very honest about the care they need unlike other vets who try to take advantage of pet parents.
I am so glad that I chose the Animal hospital to look after Cici and Tootsie. I wish he could do health care on humans more than likely receive proper care . This vet is amazing. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a vet this is the place to go

I had to take my beautiful fur baby to see the vet. Raven is my cat. He needed to have a week of medicine to relax him, so the vet could put him under and administer immunization shots, and do a full examination on Raven. Raven does not like going to the office at all.
They took very good care of him and it was a successful visit. The Animal Hospital staff are all very wonderful, caring people. 👍😸

I do not think it is okay to tell clients to return their puppies to the breeder when there are no issues other than a underbite (I was aware at time of purchase and puppy has pedigree from Canadian Kennel Club). I do think educating and informing clients of conditions is fine - it should be the decision of the client what they want to do with that information without bias. The visit felt unwelcoming and uncomfortable as well, as if I was being scolded and felt my perceived age may have played a factor in the vet's interaction because I look young. It was really nice for the vet to offer the second

I just got back from taking my rabbit here and I had to leave a review of how wonderful this place is. They took great care of my bun and gave him the treatment he needed. My car decided to stall outside of their practice and the vet himself came outside to see if we were ok. He offered us coffee and chocolate whole we waited and made sure we were comfortable while we waited for assistance. I will be using this vet for all of my animals in the future and I will be recommending this vet to everyone! Thank you again for all of your help and kindness.

AMAZING team! Expert and knowledgeable staff, compassionate, and their passion for helping animals in need truly shows! My fur babies walk away from us to the back with ease, and that speaks volumes about the therapeutic and trusting rapport the team members have all fostered with them. We HIGHLY recommend them, and that is coming from “one of those” dog owners that treat their fur babies like their children. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My wee Jack russel needed dental, extractions and a biopsy done on a nasty looking lump. He was well looked after. The biggest thing i noticed, on his week after check, Tucker was so excited to see the vet… again, greet him with tail wags and kisses. That to me speaks loudly on how well he was treated during his surgery and stay. Thank you for the amazing care you provide.
