Pets Paw and all the employees there are FANTASTIC, I have had my girl Maddie there since i first got her 10 yrs ago they have treated like she is their pet with all the love and compassion. I will never let anyone other than Pets Paw see any of my animals. Its the care you would give only its coming from the Dr.s and Techs and even the front desk is no different. They are the best Care for your animal.

I really like Dr. Foster and his staff. They are friendly and I find them very efficient. As the owner of a ball python, it's difficult to find a vet that will care for it. I'm very satisfied with the care they have given to our pet.

We went here after a referral from another vet. We should've read the reviews, because it's clear this clinic has no care for small critters. Our hamster had been bitten by our dog, and his eye was out of socket, but overall he was alright, minus the eye and some pain. They gave us pain meds, and an antibiotic for the eye. They failed to let us know that the antibiotic had a high chance of reacting adversely, and in fact made our hamster far worse.

He ended up tearing out his own fur and ripping his skin because of how much this antibiotic hurt him. When we called and alerted them of this, they said that this was likely to happen. That would've been nice to know. On top of it all, it is quite an expensive trip, costing us $140 for bad treatment and bad advice. Keep your little pals FAR away from here if they are need of care.

I've never been to Pets Paw Animal Hospital. But I had an emergency about 2 weeks ago because my daughter got a Dwarf rabbit from her father for her birthday. She only had it 2 weeks and she woke up one morning to take him out of his cage and he was dead. She was devastated I didn't know what to do or who to call. I went on internet and called the first Animal hospital on the list just to try and figure out what could have happened.

My point is when your so upset and dont know what to do and someones kindness and compassion to your feelings makes all the difference in the world. I wish I knew the name of the young lady that answered the phone at Pets Paw that day. This just tells me that the staff at Pets Paw would have the same compassion for my pet. So when we decide to have another pet I would definitely take it to Pets Paw for care. Thank you His name was "Toby"

PLEASE READ: My two star rating is based on a particularly disrespectful incident with a tech, that must not be ignored and I hope it informs others. Since taking my fur baby here, I have had an overall positive experience. The staff is accommodating and I really like Dr. Foster. He is knowledgable, calm and patient, and listens to you. That's very important to me since you are your pet's advocate.

But when I came in for what I thought was the last vet visit, I was assailed by a vet tech who made it very clear that he didn't have time for us. He never looked at my fur baby and thought to ask how we were feeling. When I tried to speak, he cut me off. Every. Single. Time. He interrupted me five times and never made eye contact with me. I finally said, "If I could finish.", but he got argumentative, then passive aggressive and spoke louder and directly to my human companion instead of me, the fur baby's mom.

It was disrespectful and insensitive. I finally ended the interaction by stating that I wanted to see the vet because the interaction with him was so frustrating. I never said it at the time, but it was so very stressful, hurtful. He never apologized, slammed the folder shut, then walked out of the room and said the vet would be in shortly. He never looked at me or my fur baby.

Keep in mind, I was there to speak to the vet about medication and euthanasia; and THAT is how I, and by default my fur baby, was treated. It was that interaction with this particular vet tech that keeps me from returning. I know that clinical workers see a lot, and some are jaded or desensitized, but bedside manner matters! The point: you rarely have it all at any doctor's office. i.e.

You may like the doctor and dislike a staff member, or vice versa. The bottom line: I cannot, in good conscience, leave my fur baby there after that utterly irreverent encounter.

Nice clean environment. Had our first appointment today. They helped fix up my baby. Great prices it was nice being able to walk out with out feeling like i had spent an arm and a leg lol. They have a great seating area also have a cute big bird in a cage. Im sure he comes out because they have a big perch. Recommended

The staff and Dr. Foster were amazing when I had to take our dog in. They got us an appointment the same day and were kind and compassionate. Thank you all for being so sweet to me and Roxie.

Dr. Crawford and team provided exceptional care to my conure during her first well bird check up. I have not had a vet connect so well with her before. We will be back and I am so glad I have piece of mind that I have a great new vet for my bird since moving into the area.

Totally outstanding (professional, reliable, responsive) medical support received for our canine and avian pets at a time that we needed in an emergency situation. We had to face a pet owner's most difficult decision to euthanize our beloved pet and the genuine compassion exhibited by Dr. Foster and Technician, Elizabeth, helped tremendously to ease the pain we experienced during the process.

We commend Dr. Preston T. Foster and staff (Dr. Crawford, et al) and remain confident, content to know that "Pets Paw Animal Hospital" exists and remains available for our veterinary services.

We've had the most wonderful experience with Pets Paw Animal Hospital. The staff is courteous, patient and caring. Dr. Preston Foster was extremely attentive and showed genuine concern for our dog Kate. He spent time with us and addressed all our concerns. He performed surgery on our dog and she's as happy as ever. She would have died if Dr. Foster hadn't taken such good care of her.

We appreciate Dr. Foster's and his staff for their experience, professionalism and kindness that they showed us. We highly recommend Pets Paw Animal Hospital to our friends and loved ones who have any animal health needs. Their fees are very reasonable as well. We are looking forward to having Dr. Foster continue to take care of our dog Kate. We entrust her future health and wellbeing to this wonderful establishment and the staff. Emil Sr. and Ruth

I highly recommend this place. Dr. Foster treated my daughters dog(Tinkerbell) a few months ago and she's been doing so well! It's nice to know this place cares about your pets and try to help you save money when possible and everyone is very nice.

I just want to say how wonderful everyone is at Pet's Paw. I have had to take both of my cats in for medical issues recently. I cannot thank Dr. Foster and his staff enough for taking care of my babies, and also easing my fears. I will never go anywhere else.

I have taken ALL MY ANIMALS HERE such great care I love them from beginning to end. They have had 2 put down 2 of my pets but have gotten puppies from the time I got them. I won't go anywhere else.

We've been bringing our pets here now for about 17 years, and we love this place. Great care, fair prices, and caring people, some of which have been there for all of those 17 yrs! I highly recommend them!

Do NOT take a pocket pet here. The vet was afraid to touch my dwarf hamster and did not give me proper instructions for the treatments (for itching scabs on his back). She gave me a solution to apply to the scabs, however it was for dogs and stated to not let the animal lick it, which is impossible to control in a hamster. Five days later my pet passed away.

My hamster is losing his eye because of this place. We brought Charles in because his eyeball was enlarged and popping out of the socket (at this point it could've been saved). The vet just looked at him and said he thinks it's an injury and prescribed a oral pain medicine and antibiotic ointment. NOPE. It wasn't getting better after 4 days so we ended up taking him to Gulf Coast Vet by Lakewood church in Houston.

We paid almost the same price and the vet was AMAZING. She has called me twice asking how Charles is, and she made me schedule a follow up appointment. She really took her time to assess him and give him the most appropriate medication. An ointment antibiotic. for an abscess behind the now almost dead eye? No. If he would've taken his time, he would've caught it and now my hamster is only going to have one eye.

I liked this place when I first started going here, but now they act like every question you ask is such an inconvenience or that they can't answer any basic questions without a visit.

My pup stepped on a sticky mousetrap (don't ask) and Dr. Foster got all the VERY sticky goo off his paws, which we never could have done. They managed to get it off my hands, too, fortunately. Dr. Foster's practice is more than dog-and-cat His patients include hedgehogs, birds, non-poisonous snakes, rabbits and other "exotics" In 25 years owning dogs (although they own us really, right?) I've never had one checked out the way mine was on our first visit. Dr. Foster goes into a Zen-like state that includes your pet but not you. He's a wonder to observe. We found him through a local rescue. He's good people. I recommend him without reservation.

WARNING! DO NOT TAKE YOUR PET HERE.,I T BY FAR THE WORST GROOMERS ANIMAL HOSPITAL I HAVE EVER BEEN TOO! I walked in to pick up my pet and the staff was so disgustingly rude., I asked to see my dog bc I heard him crying and the front desk lady says you will see him once you pay then I asked to speak to the doctor and another lady says you can't speak to him unless you have an appointment and I said but he's right there I need to ask him a question and she said you need to pay to speak to him.

I asked the technician if she knew what medicine was good for my dog and she says no I'm just a technician I'm not a doctor and I said was that's why I wanted to speak to the doctor and she says pay up and you can speak to him I was so upset I paid I got my dog and right before I'm going to leave he says you can get out now. Everyone I told the story to save I told you so this place has the worst reputation in Conroe so if I can help just one person from taking your pet to an over priced disgraceful place then it was worth to write this review!

Took my puppy here for her shots, I was greeted by very rude high school interns at the front desk and waited forever to get in WITH an appointment, then waited 20 more minutes in the examining room. When the vet finally came in she flipped my puppy over, slammed her on the table and said she "needed to see if she was aggressive", apparently her yelping meant she's submissive.

Why you need to see if an 8 week old chihuahua is aggressive is beyond me. Lastly, I was quoted $150 over the phone and left paying double that. The only nice thing I have to say is it was at least clean.

Too expensive. The other day I went by to get my dog her vaccines and they rung me up for $250 and there's still more things my dog needs. I have my other dog going to banfield and I only pay 30/mo and it covers office visit/exam, his neuter, discounts at petsmart, oh and discount on pet training! I'm so upset at myself for taking her here. Oh and don't get me started on the wait time! You go in there 15 min before your appointment and vet won't see you till an hour later. Ugh!
