Dr Luper and Dr Pilgrim are the best vets I’ve ever had. I was referred to them by a friend when my senior dog, Rico (shepherd mix pictured) had some health issues that two other vets could not help me resolve. I was so frustrated with the lack of care and how my other vet dismissed his symptoms. I had the complete opposite experience here. Fur & Feather REALLY take their time with new patients, So if your dog is shy or skittish, this is a fantastic clinic for you. I love that they are a fear – free facility, and they do everything with your pet’s comfort and ease in mind. My old vet spent maybe 5 min in the room with my dog. Fur & Feather visits can be 45min-1 hour. They don’t just treat you like a number. You can tell they really care. They have a good blend of eastern and western approaches to veterinary care which, as someone who takes a more holistic approach in my own health, I really appreciate for my dog as well. They unfortunately discovered that Rico had oral cancer, and there were no medical interventions that could extend his life, so I ended up having to put him down. They were so kind and caring during that entire process. The vet techs called me to check in multiple times. Toward the end, I had to take him to a 24 hour vet care one night when he was having bloody diarrhea. The next morning, before I even had a chance to reach out to Fur & Feather, they had already called me to check in since they had received the vet records from the emergency vet the night before. I have never had a vet take such a proactive approach like this. I adopted a new dog (Simba, Pomeranian pictured) and just took him in today for an appointment to establish care and check on a few things. The vet techs were genuinely so excited to see us and they all wanted to come meet my new dog. I was so touched by this. They REALLY care and I wish I would have found them sooner for my senior dog Rico, but I’m happy knowing Simba will be under their care for most of his life. Now if only I could find the human doctor equivalent of Fur & Feather!! 😂

Fur & Feather is a fantastic veterinary practice, and Dr. Luper is a phenomenal veterinarian. The clinic is always clean, welcoming, and smells good. The entire team is friendly, professional, and provides excellent service. They truly treat pets like family, with plenty of love, attention, and belly rubs. Communication is outstanding, they respond promptly to calls and emails, clearly explain what your pet needs, and provide a transparent understanding of costs before moving forward. Our dog absolutely loved visiting Fur & Feather. Her tail would start wagging the moment we pulled into the parking lot. Dr. Luper is a clinically strong veterinarian who combines medical expertise with genuine compassion. I highly recommend Dr. Luper and her entire team to anyone looking for trustworthy, high-quality veterinary care.

I’ve been coming to F&F for about three months now, and it’s truly been a wonderful experience. When I first started looking for a vet, I came across quite a few places with questionable practices, so I was a bit hesitant. But from day one, the team at F&F was incredibly patient and welcoming. They took the time to answer all my questions thoroughly—never rushed, never pushy—and made me feel completely at ease. What stood out most was how much effort they put into making my puppy feel comfortable. They literally got down on the floor to play with him, which made such a difference in how he responded to the visit. I also love how fun and creative they are with their puppy pictures and office videos—they’re not only hilarious but genuinely heartwarming. You can tell they care.

HUGE thank you Dr. Luper for taking such good care of my newest (oopsie) addition... Vanya aka street tramp/lady...I had no idea how she would respond to vet treatment, but she did so good with the gentle approach & Fear Free treatment by everyone! So glad she wasn't preggo & now you've made sure she'll never have to be!! She left Fur & Feather a little drowsy after her surgery but with her tail wagging!

Some of the nicest people on the plant. Dr. Luper TRULY does care about the animals she sees. I've been taking my pups to her for over 15 years. I highly recommend her
