I’ve been bringing my sweet dog Lulu to Grateful Heart for almost a decade. She’s been fortunate to be under the care of Dr. Felton and Dr. Sarah. This is such a special clinic that’s run by a caring team who truly, and empathetically, go to great lengths to ensure your pet has a smooth experience. As my dog has gotten older, she’s become more fearful of going to the vet, so I appreciate their flexibility to meet virtually or provide preliminary advice over the phone or email. What I appreciate the most is that both vets are incredibly patient, and are always happy to discuss any concerns or questions at length if needed. They also do not try to upsell you, and they even have a donation bin of pet supplies which they will offer up if any items needed are available. Highly recommend! They will love your pet as much as you do.

Dr. Felton has been caring for my cats for almost 20 years! When she moved from the vet clinic nearest our home to open Grateful Heart, there was no hesitation in following her. She goes above and beyond to ensure the highest level of care for pets (and their humans). We have seen other veterinarians at Grateful Heart for time-sensitive issues when Dr. Felton is not available, and have had good experiences as well. Communication has always been prompt and clear, and all of the staff really do their best to make your pet feel comfortable and safe in unfamiliar surroundings. I can't recommend Dr. Felton and Grateful Heart enough.

We love Grateful Heart! We’ve been taking both of our bulldogs to Dr. Pavlich and she is incredible. You can really feel how much she cares and she always takes extra time to really explain things to us. It can feel expensive, but I truly feel like the care we receive there is totally worth every penny. I cannot recommend Dr Pavlich enough to other Bulldog parents! They need special care, and she’s the best at providing it.

I have been going to Grateful Heart Vet since 2020. I now have 6 dogs and 2 cats that receive care from them, so it's fair to say I am at Grateful Heart Vet often. Over the years, we have been seen by a few of their amazing veterinarians. I have been very happy with all of the services they provide. The facility itself is always immaculate, quiet and calm (which is great for the pets they see), and its generally been easy to get in. Dr. Felton, Dr. Pavlich and Dr. Kroussaniotakis have seen my crew the most. They are all extremely kind, professional, and knowledgeable. I am always impressed with their bedside manner and compassion. It is clear they all love what they do and the families they work with. Grateful Heart Vet is the first place I recommend all of my dog training clients and I'm so glad to have them to help me with my crew!

We have gotten such good care for our chronically ill dog here. It also is a very calming vet clinic compared to many I’ve been to. I can tell the vets (Dr. Genevive, Dr Sarah, etc) and techs are driven to provide the best possible care. Also, they have multiple options for paying (e.g., Cherry, Care Credit). That has helped us at times when our financial circumstances fluctuated. We moved an hour south and it’s still worth the trip! Thanks Grateful Heart!
