“Amazing, warm, compassionate, attentive and caring staff. The fear free environment really makes these visits a lot easier on both myself and my baby. Highly recommend!“
“Northside is a small, friendly practice where your pets are truly treated like family. Over the past 18 years, they have seen 3 of our labs through good times and crisis and will soon meet a fourth. We can’t say enough about the vets and staff at Northside. We humans should be so lucky to receive such personal care.“
“A great clinic! I've loved the compassionate care and attention all of the staff give to my pets. I fully recommend this team.“
“Switched to CAC North from another vet in Fairfax and I wish we had started here from the start! I have two Italian greyhounds and have done an international health certificate here, and also been in for: routine vaccinations, anxiety medication management, parasite deworming, and GI issues. Luxor and Pharoah love to see Caitlin (tech) and DVM McCrory, but when we needed to get in asap for my newly adopted iggy who wasn’t holding down food, Julia (tech) and DVM Gottlieb were incredible! When I was struggling to get my adopted iggy’s previous vet records, the staff were able to get them on file for me. Prescriptions here are so easy to fill in office or on Chewy, and their online booking system is awesome. Italian greyhounds are weird, anxious little guys and the staff is always willing to bend over backwards to make them comfy. We are going to start seeing their vet behaviorist for some help with our reactive new little guy, and we know we will be in the best care! Receipts and post-visit instructions are always emailed and we usually always get phone calls after visits to see any add-on care is needed. This place is incredible!!“
“While visiting VA in summer, my Yorkie started making weird and scary noises (reverse sneezing) like if she weren’t able to breath ?. I immediately called Heart + Paw and after they listened over the phone, what has happened, they squeezed me in for a a check up. Dr. Jaclyn Erwin was very king and explained it was an episode of reverse sneezing. Not need to worry about. It wasn’t life threatening and it will go away with time. Next day the Dr. called to follow up my Yorkie’s episode and even helped with some tips for future episodes, if so. Heart + paw has a Super fast, friendly, kind a caring services. ? My Yorkie is doing great and she is ready travel back with me. ✈️“
“What an awesome team, they care so much about our little guy and we know he’s in safe hands!“
“I’ve been taking my dogs to Shirlington Animal Hospital for five years. They are always polite, professional, and helpful. It’s clear that they care about the pets in their care.“
“The staff took excellent care of my senior cat! It was a calm environment which helped my cat feel comfortable and not so stressed. All of the staff were so kind and knowledgeable. Dr. Tores explained the exam and results well. I felt like they really listened to my concerns too!“
“I brought my brand new puppy here and they were amazing. I appreciated the insight they had on additional vaccines she may need, especially since she's in a daycare and around other dogs all day long 3 days a week. I've read the other reviews here, and it seems like the "bad" reviews are single bad experiences or folks not used to vets and not understanding how things work - I think my appointment went beautifully and look forward to the team being my Lola's forever vet.“
“I can't say enough wonderful things about Cherrydale Vet and the incredible Dr. House! From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel welcome and at ease. Dr. House is truly one of a kind—her compassion, expertise, and genuine love for animals shine through in everything she does. She takes the time to explain treatments, answer questions, and never makes you feel rushed. My pets have always received top-notch care, and I trust Dr. House completely with their health. If you're looking for a veterinary clinic that truly goes above and beyond, Cherrydale Vet is the place to go!“
