the talk of the town

Santaluz Animal Care is hands down the best vet I have ever used! Thank you to Dr Johnson, Dr Sue, and the whole team for taking care of our pups!

- Colton M.

Our pets are treated so lovingly at Santaluz. One of our dogs is elderly and is a bit afraid of vet visits. She has really thrived in the fear-free environment Santaluz has carefully cultivated. It’s also wonderful for owners! The staff are so sweet, and Dr. Johnson is incredibly knowledgeable. Nothing ever happens without a full discussion of what the treatment plan is and why.

- Emma E.

Had a great experience when I took my fur baby. Loved how informative and thorough Dr. Sue was. She really took the time to explain the possible problems, and it was truly comforting.

- Sam M.

Easily the best vet that we’ve ever been to. We recently moved and tried another vet nearby, and it was night and day difference. The team at Santaluz Animal Care is very knowledgeable, friendly, and loving with your pets. Couldn’t ask for more than that.

- Christopher B

Our family calls Dr. Johnson “the cat whisperer.” She has treated our family pets for nearly 18 years, and we have the utmost faith in her expertise.
