what pet owners are saying
Choosing a veterinarian is a meaningful decision, and hearing from other pet owners can help guide that choice. These reviews reflect what clients appreciate most about Village Veterinary Hospital—from thoughtful communication and attentive care to the welcoming, supportive environment we strive to create. We’re proud to care for pets and their families throughout Bellingham and nearby communities.
We’ve been taking our cats to Village Vet for the past few years, along with a few other kitties we’ve found on the street, and every single visit has been a great experience! We’ve come for yearly checkups, vaccinations, blood tests, illnesses, last-minute (mild) emergencies, a spay, and more. They also provided us with a recommendation for a foot surgeon when our kitten needed a toe amputated. They are so versatile, while also making the process super easy.

My dogs, Ushi and Rosie, honestly hate the vet, but at Village Vet, they enjoy their experience. I know Rosie may not seem like it in the photo, but she loves it. The staff is wonderful and accommodating to all pet behaviors. They are always thorough, honest, and genuinely care for animals. We saw Dr. Baron, and she was so kind, highly recommend! Also, Annie was the other vet tech helping us, and she was amazing too. Love this place 10/10, your pup will too!

So blessed for Matt and his team, who are always able to fit my emergencies in. The facility is clean. I would dock them a couple of stars for what they did to their answering service (people over machines always), but I love the team. They are passionate about what they do, the animals they care for, and the people they work with. Worth the long drive. Keep Matt at all costs!

Village Vet has been my vet for years and has continuously provided top-notch veterinary care to my dog and many guinea pigs. All staff are incredibly kind, thoughtful, and welcoming to both me and my pets. If you are after quality exotic medicine, Village Vet is the place to go. Several of my guinea pigs have had long-term medical issues that Dr. Matt and Dr. Potter have been fantastic at working with. They constantly reassured this anxious guinea pig mom!

Village Vet was recommended to me when I moved to Bellingham two years ago, and I’ve had nothing but the most positive experiences. My cat Henry is very fearful and shy, but at today’s visit, he was more at ease than I’ve ever seen him be when out of the house. Dr. Niko and Annie have been so knowledgeable, trustworthy, and caring. They’ve helped address numerous different concerns and provided me with lots of information on available options, so I feel confident in Henry’s plan and care. They’re responsive, easy to get in contact with, and everyone I’ve interacted with is very friendly.

We visited on Mother’s Day because our kitty was clearly not feeling well. The staff (including Annie and Dr. Foote) was so good to us from the moment we walked in, treating our kitty with as much love as we do! As they do every time we go to Village Vet, they explained all the recommendations and costs to me so I could make an informed decision about the course of action. Visiting the vet is stressful for cats, but our kitties always seem to come out calm and loved up with pets. I highly recommend this veterinary practice to anyone who wants good care for their pets!

Village Vet has been my vet for years now. I just had my kitty get really sick, and they were everything good in a hard time. They managed to give us more time with our lovely kitty, and even recommended an at-home vet for when it was time to say goodbye. I cannot speak more highly of this veterinarian and their staff. They care, they work with you, and they do what’s best for your pet and do it with care.
Thank you, all of you deserve a raise.

The lovely people at the front desk, Lee, and Doctor Foote made our visit smooth and successful! Lee went above and beyond to provide us with pricing transparency, as well as asking my and my partner’s pronouns. We’re so grateful for the care they provide our cat, Toast, and the care they take in informing us about their process.

We have had the BEST experience with the team at Village Vet! They are so compassionate, intuitive, and treat each fur baby like they are their own. They always get us in when we are concerned and always check in on our girls after we see them. They absolutely go above and beyond, and we are so lucky to have them be the team that cares for our girls.

My fiancé and I really like coming to this vet, and so does our dog Juno! The appointments are very quick, and we hardly wait long at all. They are so sweet and loving with Juno, and she gets lots of treats. Dr Foote always answers my questions, where I learn something new every time I go. I met Annie for the first time today, and she was awesome! Thanks to the whole team at this vet 🙂

We love Village Vets! They are so unendingly patient and accommodating for my quirky and reactive pup! They are always incredibly attentive and quick to respond to any concerns I have, and it’s never a long wait for an appointment! All of the staff are so kind and reassuring, even when I am bringing such an obstinate patient!

I’ve brought my cat, Ube, a few times for shots/wellness checkups over the past year or so. The doctors are unmistakably animal people and very gentle when dealing with nervous pets. Any concerns or questions I had were eased and answered. Just the staff in general are very positive and kind people. I recommend
