Highlands Animal Care Reviews

★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1I truly cannot thank the team at Highlands Animal Care enough for the care, compassion, and support they showed during one of the most difficult times for my beloved Nikki and me. From the very beginning of her illness, every single person we encountered, whether on the phone, at the front desk or in the exam room, treated us with such warmth, empathy and professionalism.Throughout her diagnosis, treatment and recovery, the staff was incredibly patient- answering every question with kindness and never rushing us through appointments. The veterinarians were not only skilled and knowledgeable, but also deeply compassionate. I felt that my dog wasn’t just another patient, she was genuinely cared for and loved.What meant the most to me was how they supported me, as well as checking in, offering reassurance, and making sure I felt confident and informed every step of the way. It made all the difference knowing we weren’t going through it alone.Thanks to their excellent care, my dog is now on the mend and doing so much better. I am endlessly grateful for the entire team for helping her heal and for being there for both of us with open hearts!Thank you, from the bottom of mine.With deepest appreciation,Nikki & Shelli Edmondson 🩷
June 03 · Shelli EdmondsonPlease read this review before giving Highlands Animal Care your business. I went to Highlands for the complimentary reviews and the services offered, which includes in-home appointments. I have giant breed dogs, and it is difficult to take them to the Vet when they are sick or requiring end-of- life care. Planning for their future, I was optimistic that I would find a place where my pets would feel at home and be in great care.My young dog of 14 months required knee surgery due to a growth issue. Dr. Monaco talked great about Dr. Olsen, who is a mobile Veterinary Surgeon with MOVES. This ended up being the absolute worst veterinary experience of my lifetime.Dr. Olsen performed an incorrect surgical procedure and left my dog with a bone fracture that cannot be corrected. Dr. Monaco then wanted to amputate my dog’s leg after a second "corrective surgery" was also a failure. I was charged almost $10,000 and returned my beloved dog with a lame leg and pain medication for life.Dr. Monaco will lie and gaslight you, saying she told you things that she did not. Dr. Olsen told me he was exceptionally good at this surgical procedure and stated that the procedure has a 95 percent success rate. Wow, okay, that sounded good at the time and built my confidence in Dr. Olsen. After the second surgery failed, Dr. Olsen refused to return my phone calls and Dr. Monaco said to me "well, we told you this procedure has a 50 percent failure rate"! I told Dr. Monaco to her face that she was lying to me. Dr. Monaco wasn’t even in the exam room when I had this conversation about surgical success rates with Dr. Olsen.So, for all you math wizards, what’s the probability of having two failed surgical procedures from the same surgeon, both procedures with a 95 percent chance of success? Let me just say that I have never faced such unlucky odds. And who in their right mind would let a surgeon operate that has a 50 percent failure rate?!Dr. Monaco then argued with me asking me “what do you have against amputation?” as if this was the only option to correct their mistakes….cut off my dog’s leg and there is no longer a problem?! I did not elect for amputation.I told Dr. Monaco that my intention was to submit a complaint to the Veterinary Board. Dr. Monaco told me that it wouldn't matter if I did because she is friends with the Veterinary Board members, that it's a tight community, and that the complaint would just get dismissed. I went ahead and submitted a complaint anyway, and it was surely dismissed stating there was “no violation.”These 5-star ratings are for the front office staff and the patients who require some ointment or vaccinations but please think twice before letting Highlands Animal Care, Dr. Monaco, Dr. Olsen, or any of their medical affiliates perform any surgical procedures on your beloved pet!
August 19 · Cyn BodToday I had an at home vet visit for my 18 year old cat who has kidney disease. I looked into mobile vets as my kitty hates car rides and hates the vet. She has to be sedated before vet visits and it's just an all around stressful experience for the both of us. Well that changed today. I met Dr. Monaco and her vet assistant Lex. They came to my house at exact time of the appointment. They were quiet and just had a beautiful peacefulness about them. We all three sat on my living room floor with my baby and they were able to do a full exam and give her a rabies vaccine. I'm in awe of how amazing these ladies were! They were so gentle with Eva she never even knew they were the vet! I will always do my exams this way from here on out! If you have an anxious kitty I highly recommend Highlands Animal Hospital. Very affordable even for at home vet visits. Thank you for taking such good care of my baby ❤️ I'll be a client for life
July 29 · Angela SThe most incredible vet I have ever been to. They saved my dog’s life and I will never be able to repay them. All the vets and staff are incredible to work with and the bedside manner is 12/10. I would highly recommend.
August 19 · Madeline FitzgeraldWhen adopting new cats, I wanted a vet that was not only financial friendly, but rated highly by other customers with their animals in need of care. I stumbled across Highlands Animal Care, and I understand why they have spectacular reviews across the board.The team at Highlands is very responsive, great communication, and you can tell that everyone loves and has a genuine passion for your babies. I have asked these ladies countless questions, and they answer each one with a smile on their face and very informative responses. They’ve been active in my cats’ life with every call I’ve made with different concerns.They also see exotic animals as well, which is wonderful as I’m also a reptile keeper who loves reptiles just as much as anyone else! Their office, rooms, and bathrooms are always very clean and decorated with very humorous posters, which is a nice pick me up if you happen to receive bad news. They’re honest, and not here to do a cash grab-they want what’s best for your baby and you. My cat got diagnosed with asthma, which involved them filling him in on a week where they were rather booked up, but they brought him in to ensure that he was okay.With an asthmatic cat and a lady cat who’s about to be a senior, I couldn’t be any happier to call Highlands Animal Care my trusted veterinarian and am always excited to bring my animals in and see the wonderful staff! Dr. Francher and Dr. Amster are the best. Thank you guys for everything you do with unbeatable care and costs, especially nowadays!
