VCA Canada Kanata Animal Hospital

I love this clinic! They are absolutely amazing and loving people with an awesome atmosphere. I left feeling my dog was well taken care of and was treated by kind, caring people.

Ive had a very good experience with the VCA Canada Kanata location. The staff are very kind, friendly, and knowledgeable. The vets and get techs are very caring and are good at explaining what is what when talking to you about your pet.

VCA was fantastic, the Vet was amazing, the techs were amazing, they offered financial options not found at other vets, not to mention they took our brand new fur baby, every other place was full, and rude! Very very very happy

I have been thrilled with this establishment. The staff, vets and support both, have given excellent care and attention to my cat and myself. I have been with them for about a year now and consistently find them efficient, thorough and caring. There is just a warm and caring vibe here.

Why can't I put 10 stars?

Honestly, would recommend ten times fold. They are so kind and informative. I took my kitty, Oscar here who the day before I adopted, and was having some type of eye infections. Long story straight they made me feel so much better with his heath and wellbeing.

They always show such care for the furry and non furry clients. I drive from the other side of town to bring in my dogs

I have been going here since I was a young girl. The vets are compasionate and caring. My dogs are well cared for and Im always confident with the vets recommendations. I highly recommend Kanata Animal Hospital.

Took us on as a new patient, just picked up our dog after her spay. Very professional and courteous staff. Everything labeled with perfect instructions.

Every time we bring our furbaby here the staff are so friendly and polite. They have been extremely accommodating and can usually get us in right away. Our malamute/husky Ivy is always excited to see them there and I'm sure the staff feel the same way.

Went for my first visit. They advertised its free for the first visit but then on check out, they said it's only free if there was no health issues on assessment. Kinda feel like this is false advertisement.

Dr Wright, Dr Gold and staff provide excellent care of my two cats! Both cats have had health issues in 2021 and the vets, techs and office staff have ensured I have been well informed, had visits with the vet, in a timely manner, as needed. I have signed up for the VCA pet care plan so I can pay a monthly fee and receive the annual services I need to ensure my pets' good health, I.e. Shots, checkup, etc. I have the plan including dental care for my cat that requires it. For example, Dental cleaning starts at $800 so I am grateful to be able to pay that fee back on a monthly basis. Both cats are on prescription food so I have signed up for the online food ordering service Mollies.ca so I can have their vet recommended food delivered to my door. I am very happy with the care and services provided

Very friendly and warming staff.
And very very honest hospital.
Reason why I give 5 stars if the fact me and my wife called and they weren't after our money like several animal hospitals we called.

Very helpful and friendly staff. Have been coming here for many years. Much respect for Dr. Wade Wright. He's so good and gentle with my cat.

I've taken our pets here for 20 years. I just took our dog in who was suffering from digestive issues. The vet (Dr Nightingale) was kind and patient with our nervous pet and diagnosed the problem quickly. We went home with some meds for her and a few days later, the issue was resolved. One can't ask for more.

Receptionist was extremely rude - understandably there was no availability on that day but was giving sarcastic suggestions to wait months for a same day appointment for an issue requiring antibiotics. Best of luck to this establishment - don't call if you are a concerned pet owner. This individual actually hung up on me.

We had to make a difficult decision to put our cat buddy to rest. The folks at VCA were very supportive. Took time to give us our options and showed a lot of compassion

Great vet for our furry family.

They schedule appointments quite quickly and treat our animals (and their humans) so well! Would recommend.

Dr. Wright was very gentle with our kitty cat when we had to put her down. He was also very patient with us as a family while we were with her. We now have two kittens and what I like best about them is that they give you reminders and emails.

I think the reason a lot of people rate poorly for vet hospitals is because they don't understand that health care costs money. You can't expect someone to save your dying cat for 0 dollars. This is a great hospital, they helped us with our cats nails and saved us in a pinch when we needed a bag a food:) great hard working staff.

Do not go here. They overcharge for everything. Any VCA clinic is a sham and overcharge you every time. Not to mention I got an open pill bottle with one pill missing and they didn't do anything about it.

If you're in Kanata, do yourself a favour and go to the Carp Road Animal Hospital. If you don't mind the drive go to the Westboro Animal hospital. Bottom line, don't go here, you can get compassion and caring at better places.

Horrible insensitive people! That squeeze desperate pet owners for every cent they have. My cat was in an emergency situation. They knew after 1 test that there was no cure. But kept saying 1 more test. 1 more test. $1000 later. I was 16 at the time, and they knew that. No only did the squeeze my out of money. When she passed they came in trying to upsell on urns, paw prints, etc. Come on! Luckily my mom was there or I would have sold my car and got everything I could have to remember her. I'm not the only one there are past reviews. NEVER GO THERE

The staff here are very caring and compassionate. I have now taken 2 pets here and the level of service is incredible.

We have used the Kanata Animal Hospital for 15+ years. During that time, the staff have always been knowledgeable, skilled and empathetic in their care of our dogs, Charlie and Rosie - both who loved visiting the clinic. We, particularly, appreciated the care provided by Dr. Adams, the technicians and the front desk receptionists (esp. Lorelli). They were compassionate in all they did for us. The only downside was the cost of our dogs' care (both have now passed on). In this regard, we will take out an insurance plan to cover some of the dogs' care. Aside from this, we do not hesitate to recommend the Kanata Animal Hospital.

Took our 8week old puppy for her first check up and vaccinations and was very pleased with them, our puppy seen Lisa Ashdown and she is great highly recommend VCA Kanata our experience was perfect and they answered all of our questions and concerns,
after looking into alot of vets I am glad we decided on this one in particular, just keep an eye on your puppy I think the girls there tried to run off with her but who wouldn't she is adorable

Thanks again VCA Kanata

and for the few complaining about price one motto to live by good service isn't cheap and cheap service isn't good.if you own a dog then you take on the responsibility of the cost if that is not something you can afford then just maybe a pet is not for you.

Great animal hospital. Staff is friendly and the vets are very knowledgeable. They have some nice plans setup for puppies as well!

I needed to get a last minute vaccination for my dog while out of town (from mtl) and they accomodated me last minute and also contacted my dogs regular vet to get his history. The staff and the vet we saw were very nice and caring.

Everyone is wonderful here from the front desk staff to the vet techs to the vets. My cats and I love Dr. Ashdown. She has the perfect personality for her profession and is very knowledgeable and compassionate. It is a little pricey but it's worth it for the excellent service provided.

Wonderful place to bring your pet. We were travelling/moving across Canada and had some concerns about our little dog. Stopped in here as they were on the same street as our hotel. They told us they could squeeze us in in about an hour’s time. We were happy with that and came back after checking into our hotel. The vet gave our dog a thorough examination. The staff that work there are amazing and very caring. Thank you so much Kanata Animal Hospital. You put our minds at ease and we were so happy we stopped in there. Awesome work!

First time at a vet hope it's the last dog bladder infection ultrasound urine sample and 20 antibiotic a small bottle of painkillers that took 15 minutes and a follow up same routine still no results cost to date $875 I wouldn't spend that on myself

As a first time dog mom I had a lot of questions and concerns. The vet as well as all the staff were extremely knowledgable and patient with me. I signed up with their puppy care plan and I could not be more thrilled. I just went in for a free nail trimming as part of the plan and was greeted by super friendly faces who already knew her name from memory! I also love the fact that I opted in to text reminders!

I brought my seizing 3 year old cat here as an emergency since they are close to our home last Thursday morning when they first open. I was greeted by a robot that was more interested in the days scheduled appointments than my pleas that if we go further in traffic to the OVH as she suggested in morning traffic my cat might die with more seizures. There was no doctor on duty they tried to contact 2 doctors and were not available. We go as she told us to the Ottawa Animal hospital on Boyd Ave. We were stuck in morning traffic and my cat, had 4 more seizures. When we arrived at the OAH, they gave us the grim news our little guy might not make it. He stayed overnight and died 24 hours after being admitted. If the Kanata Animal Hospital had acted quickly to admit him and give him the care he needed our beautiful little boy would still be here with us. RIP little soul, your mommy and daddy did their best to try and save you. We love you always and will miss you every day of our lives.

I have multiple animals that been seen here and I have always loved the service that my babies have gotten! They really care and it's obvious. The front line staff always remember my dogs when I walk in and they have been incredible when I've had emergencies in the past. They do text reminders for appointments which is so convenient. Nothing negative to say!

Anyone who feels that KAH is not overpriced has not been anywhere else. I just moved from Kanata to east Ottawa, went to a new Vet and what I paid $349 at KAH last year cost me $181.93 today. Go figure. Kanata Animal Hospital over charges.save money.shop around!

“TOO Extensive & WAY OVER PRICED”
Great staff excellent with the animals but not cheep at all I would shop around

Thank you very much for the compassionate staff and vet. They even donated the money on behalf of our beloved cat who passed away last December.
