Reviews from clients at our Al Furjan and City Walk clinics.
Alia OumeishCat parent · Google review The staff were so friendly, and very kind and caring to my little cat. They did an excellent job and kept both me and Leo comfortable. Would definitely recommend! We dealt with Dr. Chinnu, Dr. Lamiya, Arpita, and Emmanuel, who gave Leo the best haircut he's ever had — all incredibly lovely.
Rena MedawarCat parent · Google review Excellent care and kind staff. The team at PetsFirst City Walk treated my cat with so much compassion and professionalism. They took the time to explain everything clearly and made both me and Bella feel at ease. Highly recommended.
Arbina ShaikhCat parent · Google review I've been going to PetsFirst since they opened in City Walk, and honestly I'm beyond satisfied. They take care of my cats so well — the staff even remember the names of each of my four cats whenever we visit. They don't overcharge, and their prices are so reasonable. Super happy with PetsFirst, 10 out of 10.
