    I have seen Drs. Unruh and Stark with my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy. They are warm, outgoing, and extremely sweet to my little girl. If I have an issue, we get same day care. The whole staff is always super excited to see my pup, and she is usually swept away from me and cuddled by at LEAST one person before or after her appointment.

    We cannot express how much it means to know Sprocket was so well taken care of by your staff the last weekend he was alive. We knew his health was declining but we did not expect goodbye would come so soon. During the kennel tour and drop off Savannah was reassuring about his care and very understanding about how much patience it would take to get him up and around, feeding him at slow intervals as well as keeping him cleaned up. When we came to pick him up after his stay we knew he was well taken care of because he was so well adjusted, clean, happy and didn’t even seem to mind if he stayed longer. It was only a few days later we had to make the decision to let him go. Upon returning to North Rock to say our final goodbye he was eager to enter the building and be greeted by staff in a familiar place, a happy place he felt safe. Dr. Linot made the transition so peaceful and gave us a chance to say goodbye, we are forever grateful for her experience and ability to provide the best end of life care. Sprocket was such a huge part of our lives from our daily morning walks, taking him with us in the truck to work at the job sites and modifying our schedules to be with him constantly as he declined. It has been so hard letting our best friend and constant companion go. Every interaction with each of you was so important in making the process bearable for us and allowing us to move forward in peace as we work through our grief. Thank You!

    They got my babies in quickly and the service is precise, and I love that the animal hospital called to check up a week later. They also sent us a thank you card showing they go the extra step. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff, hands down my go to for my babies.

    I've had Toby, my little rescue senior, in to see Dr Rypma at Northrock twice in the last month, first for what turned out to be an allergy issue. Everyone was so wonderful & understanding about my concerns, I knew I had found the vet for us!! Toby became ill over the weekend & by Sunday night I was pretty frantic. Tried to take him to VESH, but he wasn't urgent & we were never able to get in. Called Northrock first thing Monday & let them know Toby was throwing up, having bowel issues, not eating & very lethargic. They got him in that day. Dr Rypma was AWESOME, as are all the staff we've met there. They were reassuring, thorough and caring. Once she determined what was wrong, Dr Rypma prescribed treatment, explained everything clearly and was completely understanding of this new dog mom's fears! She's called the last few days to check on him and I very much appreciate her care and concern. Toby loves her and I think she kinda likes him too... lol I couldn't ask for a better Dr for my furbaby!!!

    I have just taken my first puppy in for his initial puppy visit and I was very impressed by the entire staff! They were very knowledgable and were happy to answer all of my questions! It was way quicker than I expected, minimal waiting and easy checkout with all the charges clearly listed. I feel very comfortable bringing my pup back from here on out!

    Northrock is a great, clean and friendly vet facility. Every one of the staff members is a pet friendly person and Dr Rypma is the best. Our golden retriever is 16 moth old and they've done a great job taking care of her.

    Very pleased with the availability for a appointment it was very necessary that our new kitten was seen immediately. All staff acted professionally and informed us with all the details about what was going on and needed for our cat. Absolutely pleased with the service and thankful for them providing us with the medicine to help our cat out. 10/10

    Everyone was very friendly and so happy to see our pup! They all interacted with her, from the front desk to the vet. That’s important to me! The vet gave us great tips and advise and truly showed she cared for the wellbeing of our animal. Looking forward to having a long relationship with this office!

    My dog started having seizures over the weekend, so Monday morning I immediately contacted Northrock Hospital For Animals. I was relieved they knew my situation due to an email I sent them prior to opening hours. They got us right in with Dr. Terry. Dr. Terry was wonderful, she explained everything they'd be doing in great detail and she handled my dog as if she was her own, with love and compassion. Dr. Terry also called me several days after our appointment to check on Fallon and she took the time to answer my additional questions and concerns. I couldn't be more pleased and my mind is at ease knowing that Dr. Terry is caring for Fallon now. Also, the techs were great and front office as well-very personable and friendly, that's important too!

    Great experience! My Peter had sliced open his front leg & they took him in immediately, bleeding all over. Took such good care of him that I am bringing the rest of my beasts to them. Thank you, Dr Marshall & your whole staff.

    The ladies at this clinic were exceptional during our visit. Not only were my pets needs communicated clearly, they also shared with me different avenues of care. My pets recovery was their priority. The facility was so clean and welcoming. I wish I had learned about Northrock Animal for Pets long ago. They made it feel as if we had been patients for years, as the staff was so friendly and warm to both me and dog. -Michelle & Rova

    I’ve been taking my dogs, past and present, to Northrock for about 25 years and wouldn’t want to have them anywhere else. It begins with the awesome front end staff who are so helpful and welcoming. The veterinarians (ours is Dr. Rypma) are compassionate, knowledgeable and just so good. The behind the scenes techs are the best. Thank you for always taking such great care of my pups!!

  • 5/5 Zoë H. 7 months ago on Google
    The vet was amazing! Quick and easy! Everything was explaining in detail. The itemized bill was clear and easy to understand. The procedure was explained to me in detail. My cat is doing well. They took good care of him

  • 5/5 Elvis R. 6 months ago on Google
    The staff are professional and very helpful. My 3 cats are seen promptly if they are sick. I have met 4 of the vets and each one is very knowledgeable. It is obvious that they love animals! I always feel comforted by their care and support. Would highly recommend!

    Dr. Stricker has my vote for sainthood after taking care of my girlfriend and dog through a very hard time while I was away for work. The intention and care she gave was invaluable and made a very hard situation bearable for all of us. We wouldn't go anywhere else.

  • 3/5 Kevin B. 2 years ago on Google
    My old vet retired and I switched to north rock. First for a teeth cleaning the bill was less than I expected. They gave all the possible costs up front. I was extremely pleased with the service and how caring everyone was. Next the dachshunds went back for heart worm shots and that also went very well. This is my new veterinarian for the wiener boys.

  • 2/5 Mark J. 1 year ago on Google
    I didn't expect to give a bad review of the place that takes care of our beloved pets. However, my visit this week was extremely frustrating to me. I feel the level of care and communication was good. So, why the 2 star review? When I set an appointment, I expect to be seen close to that time. It was an hour and 15 minutes before the actual veterinarian came into my room, and I was there for a total of 1 hour, 45 minutes. I HAVE A SCHEDULE TOO! I feel this is unreasonable, and another such visit will cause me to start looking for another vet. I love the people, but I planned my day around being on time. Additionally I was unable to complete my other plans because of it.

  • 5/5 Kristy R. 1 year ago on Google
    I highly recommend northrock. I took my beagle here for 9 years. He passed in September and they took 100% care of him. From puppy to the very end. I always felt listened to and if we had an emergency got in quickly. Now I have a new puppy and I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else. The care of the entire team is amazing. Thank you!

  • 5/5 Tyler W. 1 year ago on Google
    Loved my experience here, just recently got a new cat and they fit me in for an appointment no problem, even showed up for the appointment a little early and they went ahead and saw me right then! Everyone was so kind and explained everything that was going on in great detail so I wasn’t worried about my cat. Will definitely continue to go here!

  • 5/5 Jim P. 1 year ago on Google
    Our dog is 17 yrs old, and we knew it would be a tough visit, but Dr. Rypma and staff were all very compassionate and honest with us. I truly appreciated everything they did for us, and when the time comes to say goodbye to our little one, we know we'll be in good hands at Northrock.

  • 5/5 K. A. 1 year ago on Google
    The compassion you’ve shown over the years, in particular Amanda and Erin, has been superlative. Whether in death or in life, you’ve extended caring expertise and simple downright caring that has meant the whole world to me. Especially now that my beloved husband of 40 years has passed and I’m all alone with our fourth Old English Sheepdog, little Mia, I know you guys are there for me. We’re now a little family of two, and I have the assurance that you really care how we’re doing and I can come to you in hours of need or just simple encouragement. Thank you so bottomlessly for that.

    The front staff are so welcoming, whether on the phone or in person! And, I love how each doctor and the vet techs care for our dogs. We are very happy with Northrock and have been for many years😊

  • 5/5 Brandon M. 1 year ago on Google
    This place offers very good care for your pets. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. They only do appointments, but they're pretty good about seeing you close to your scheduled time.

  • 5/5 Gwyneth C. 1 year ago on Google
    Staff is super friendly, and informative. Great prices too! They take great care of my cat whenever we come in

  • 5/5 Brittany W. 1 year ago on Google
    We've been taking our two cats here for over 5 years. By far the best vets we've used in town. Easy to get an appointment and they really listen to your concerns. We will never go anywhere else!
