Hillside Pet Clinic

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you, Dr Steven's for being so great with my girl! I appreciate all your knowledge and recommendations

Experiencia fantástica: Gardner Montgomery is the best and.Vader loves him

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience. They were able to get us in same day for an emergency with my dog breaking her tooth. Dr Stevens listened to my concerns and was great with my anxious dog! We have recently moved and had not established with a vet clinic before this, Hillside Pet Clinic will be our home vet now!

Experiencia fantástica: The staff and doctors are amazing! Pets and their people are treated with warmth and compassion.

Experiencia fantástica: Most amazing service and they give your pets the best care and they are very sweet to your animals

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Jackie Frederickson is an amazingly talented and caring Veterinarian! Once again she came to the aid of my dog(s). Receptionist Hallie got me in as a minor emergency! I very much appreciated the professional service and speed in helping my furry boy out! Thank you Hillside Pet Clinic!!

Experiencia fantástica: Gardner and all the staff were amazing! Our animals were treated great and there were no issues at all!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Gardner is so great with our dog Rocco! Takes time and care. He’s so caring and shows his passion for animals and their well being as well as their owners. Very personable !

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been going to hillside pet clinic for my labradoodle for the past 7 years. Their service has consistently been efficient and caring. Right now, I’m working with Dr. Hass. She is very considerate, aware of cost, and aware of my dogs needs (my dog is very medically needy). Super happy with this vet and this clinic!

Experiencia fantástica: I have never felt so confident and safe with a vets office. They have such a warm welcoming nature, from staff and the office. Even as a new patient they got my sweet boy in so quickly and they've already gone above and beyond. Just a great place with wonderful staff.

Experiencia fantástica: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Hillside Veterinary Pet Clinic was truly amazing. You can genuinely feel the love and kindness from the entire team. They took such great care of my puppy, Casper, when she fractured her leg and needed a splint. They were compassionate, patient, and even adjusted the fees a bit to help me out, which meant so much during a stressful time. The care felt real — not rushed, not transactional — just people who truly care about animals. I’ll absolutely be going back for her follow-up. Super 5+ experience. Thank you, Hillside Pet Clinic, for taking such wonderful care of my girl.

Experiencia positiva: Enjoyed quick professional service. Cost is appropriate for services. Our vet was fantastic, spent a good amount of time with us, answered all of our questions and made a plan of care. She was great with our very shy dog. Would highly recommend doing them

Experiencia fantástica: They love our Corgi and she can be barky! Very knowledgeable and I learned a new trick to help Cora sit!

Experiencia fantástica: Gardner is the best vet I’ve ever seen! He’s great with my animals! Even the one who won’t leave my side will go with Gardner. He’s very skilled and personable! We all look forward to the vet visit instead of dreading it!

Experiencia fantástica: I am so happy to have all the support offered by Hillside Pet Clinic. The front staff is friendly and helpful and responsive to all my questions. They help with medication refills, scheduling appointments efficiently and with compassion. I am also a super fan of Dr. Montgomery. He is wonderful with both my cats and dog. A great place.

Experiencia fantástica: This consult visit pleasant and stress free . Got my estimate extremely quick. Great energy and smiles.

Experiencia fantástica: Ww remain PHENOMENALLY ECSTATIC with the care & service provided by the INCREDIBLY AMAZING STAFF at Hillside. DR Steph Wheatley, new staff vet is OUTSTANDIINGLY SUPERB ‼️ she is so wonderfully gentle with our sweet old cat, CoCo. This was our 2nd visit with Dr Wheatley. As a cat owner too, she put us at ease immediately about CoCo’s issues. Completely relieved that our fur baby will be ok. Dr Wheatley again, was AWESOME! Kind, caring & informative. We are continually impressed with the entire staff at Hillside Vet. .

Experiencia fantástica: We have been with Hillside Pet Clinic for a decade or so. They have been professional and kind w our pet needs the whole time. We recently experienced a death of one of our beloved animals. HSP was above and beyond as they helped our family transition. They gave the utmost care and dignity. Talked us through all the steps and asked us if anything needed more explaining. It made all the difference for our pet and our family.

Experiencia fantástica: Very comfortable and yet Very professional. I’ve used some other vets in different circumstances, but I’m always happier when I can use Hillside.

Experiencia fantástica: We took our bearded dragon here after taking her to a different vet that did not help us with the issue she was having. Dr. Steven's was very knowledgeable, kind, and explained things really well. Within a day, my bearded dragon was doing much better. I am pleased with the care we received from Hillside and will continue to bring my bearded dragon here!

Experiencia fantástica: Employees were very thorough, thoughtful and compassionate. The room was set up so it welcomed our old blind cat Goose, was a very thoughtful touch. Definitely highly recommend .

Experiencia fantástica: I appreciate that they seem to always be able to get my dog in quickly. I also love the ability to book online & the staff has always been kind to my dog & I.

Experiencia fantástica: Got us in relative quick and answered all our questions. Our puppy was comfortable and they spoiled her! Scheduled us for our next shots and looking forward to going back

Experiencia fantástica: They were the greatest. They found her issues very quickly and very friendly to our cat. They explained everything up front and helpful in explaining. Thank you and appreciated all the info and help

Experiencia fantástica: Empathetic, skilled, and professional care. I've had my rabbit seen by two different vets, both excellent. Everyone on staff goes out of their way to help you and get you the best service for your pets! So grateful for them!

Experiencia fantástica: If you’re looking for a vet, this is the one! Amazing staff and vets that really do care about you and your fur baby. Always an amazing experience here.

Experiencia fantástica: We first moved to Anchorage in December of 2024. My dogs had diarrhea from the stress of apartment living as they were used to living at a quiet residence. On our visit, my poor babies lost their bowels all over the exam room. The smell was putrid. Dr. Sarah Stevens helped us and she had to step out to get a peppermint it was so bad. Everyone in that office assisted me in cleaning my dogs up for the ride home, they were kind and helpful. Dr. Steven’s never lost patience with us and took her time examining both dogs and visiting with us despite the situation. She was SO kind. Later on we have started to work with Dr. Gardner Montgomery. Both Dr. Stevens and Dr. Gardner have made many follow up calls just to check on my dogs and see how they’re doing when they experience illness or natural aging. I’ve lost track of how many times Dr. Gardner has taken time out of his busy day just to call me to answer any questions or concerns I have over meds for my older dog. Dr. Montgomery is genuine and passionate about animals. His heart is IN this. This office is SO wonderful. ❤️ Anchorage is a better place because of Hillside Vet Clinic and all the genuine souls who work there. I highly recommend this office.

Experiencia fantástica: Considerate, caring and thorough Vet and Vet Tech. Writing "Welcome (my pet's name)" on the exam room white board was a nice touch

Experiencia negativa: Two days in a row I had the scheduler put me down for a different time other than what they told me. Not sure what is going on over there but we won’t be coming back.

Experiencia fantástica: We sadly lost our puppy to a tragic accident and the staff was incredibly kind, supportive and patient as we worked through everything. They made a horrific situation and the process manageable. We are grateful to all of them for their empathy and the difference they made.

Experiencia fantástica: Caring doctors. Very friendly staff. Always make my puppy feel comfortable. Easy to get appointments. Prepared for different situations and take precautions to keep every animal safe.

Experiencia fantástica: Very nice visit, I was even late. Would recommend and will go again

Experiencia fantástica: Great place to take your pet if you care about them and want the best for them, because Hillside Pet Clinic does too and it shows! Highly recommend going here! Get the treatment you and your pet deserves!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Stevens was wonderful with our sick gecko

Experiencia fantástica: Great vet and techs! Everyone was very friendly and super helpful! I got a puppy foot print and got to take cute photos of my puppy!! Happy to call them our vet!

Experiencia fantástica: This is the absolute best vet clinic I have ever been to. They are so kind and welcoming, as well and I feel their services are priced fairly. I am so thankful for the help they gave me for my elder pup taking his rainbow bridge journey and also my other pup when she got a respiratory illness. They truly care about pets and provide the very best care.

Experiencia fantástica: The team took good care of my hedgehog when she was alive and took good care of her and me as she passed. They always really made sure they were double checking and doing things correctly and I really appreciated that. When we had to make the hard decision of putting her down when she became ill, they were so kind and helped me contact who I needed since I didn't have a phone that time and they never rushed me to do anything or to hurry up, etc. And they went the extra mile getting ink prints and quills to keep forever. Few weeks later I got a card from the team that made me feel really thankful for the team and for my sweet hedgehog. Thank you guys!

Experiencia fantástica: The staff is never catty or squirrelly, always very kind and professional. The animals that come in always seem calm. If I were an animal I would choose hillside pet clinic

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing staff! Appointment went quick and very low stress for my cats!

Experiencia fantástica: They got me in same day, all staff was super friendly and helpful. Dr Gardner was great easing my fears and working with my cat who doesn’t do well when she’s in a new place and overwhelmed. We have a plan moving forward and I’m relieved. Thankful for their help and care!

Experiencia fantástica: Our kitten was taken care of by a team of super heroes! Every single person we interacted with, showed the highest level of care (GENUINE CARE). We can’t express enough gratitude for such a loving, compassionate team. They are all deserving of the highest level of recognition. It is difficult to find businesses these days where you don’t feel like just another dollar, just another customer. Not here! THEY CARE! Our kitten was experiencing a plethora of issues when we first adopted her, Dr. Weatherby and her team have all helped our family/kitten more than we can express. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart!

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone has been so attentive and answers all our questions that we have. They’ve checked up serval times after our dog got neutered which we really appreciated!

Experiencia fantástica: The vet and the assistant were great with my cat Gracie, who can be a difficult patient. I highly recommend them.

Experiencia fantástica: They took great care handling my kids with paws and we will be returning on a regular basis. Thank you

Experiencia fantástica: I’m going to whisper this review because I secretly don’t want Hillside Pet Clinic to get TOO popular… but they do deserve every single star and then some. Finding the right vet feels exactly like searching for the perfect pediatrician for your human kids—someone who loves them almost as much as you do, notices the tiniest details, and somehow speaks fluent “dog” better than we ever will. That’s Hillside. Every single visit, they treat our lovable golden four-legged son like the VIP he believes he is (and okay, we believe it too). From the kind front desk to the doctors, who patiently listen and explain things in a way that makes us feel heard and calm, they go above and beyond every time. They’ve eased our minds, celebrated the big wins with us, and honestly just made us feel like our dog has the best possible team in his corner. Thank you for always taking such gentle, thoughtful, incredible care of my favorite child (I would say don’t tell my other kids, but they already know!) ❤️ P.S. If you’re reading this and thinking of booking… maybe just… wait a week? Kidding! (Kind of.) You’ll love them as much as we do! — A very grateful (and slightly obsessed & possessive) dog mama

Experiencia positiva: The visit at Hillside went okay. I am finding that ALL the vets pretty much work within the same parameters. You're pretty much run through like a heard of cattle being treated like every other cow in the heard with no actual special attention and without being heard. The area that I saw as needing improvement was the vets listening skills. Though she listened to the words I was saying, I didn't actually feel heard because had I been a tually heard she would have taken the time to really look at the evidence that I brought in as well as the areas o. my cat that displayed the actual problem that I brought my cat in for.

Experiencia fantástica: The doctor and attendants were fantastic. They did more than what I thought they could do. My dog was frightened but they were great and calmed her down.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Stevens is phenomenal! We took our teacup yorkie in and were so shocked and impressed. She was very thorough, made us feel very comfortable, and did everything in the room with us present. She got our girl back on track and has a care plan for her. The staff are friendly and super sweet. As far as pricing, it is incredibly lower than the other vets we had tried. Several vets in this area are a cash grab. Hillside is not and they actually care.

Experiencia fantástica: I was well taken care of at Hillside Pet Clinic. The staff was friendly, very knowledgeable and helpful. My dog was comfortable too. I highly recommend this veterinary clinic.

Experiencia fantástica: Love this office, I feel as though they take your pets health seriously.

Experiencia fantástica: My animals have always been treated with kindness and patience by everyone from walking in the door until leaving!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Haas is an exceptional veterinarian. She was the first vet for my dogs at another vet clinic, and she is the reason I brought them to Hillside. She is highly knowledgeable, compassionate, and very patient in explaining procedures. I highly recommend her!

Experiencia fantástica: They have taken extraordinary care of our senior dog, Sole…above and beyond does not begin to describe the staff. Over the last two years, they have helped manage Sole’s natural aging process with such kindness and compassion. In the midst of uncertainty in Sole’s final years, months, and weeks, Dr. Engel and the support staff sustained a sense of safety and trust that we will never forget. Thanks to their care, Sole’s quality of life at her advanced age was great. Hillside Vet had a way of making us feel like we were the only ones in the clinic at every visit. Thank you all for everything!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Wheatley and staff are very compassionate and caring. We ditched the VCA conglomerate and went local, so glad we did.

Experiencia fantástica: We arrived early, and they still got us in quickly. Clean office, kind people, low stress, and easy location.

Experiencia fantástica: I’d say Hillside pet clinic took care of my needs, it took probably longer than it needed to however I do have two dogs. They were very nice there. They seemed to know what they were doing. It did seem like it would’ve been easier for everyone if there was a table for the dog to be on for shots, etc.. (but I'm no expert)

Experiencia fantástica: Great vets, took great care of my doodle Linus. Front desk staff and techs were all friendly and excellent customer service all around!

Experiencia fantástica: Just simply excellent service and great communication from the beginning… dedicated staff who care for your pets…

Experiencia fantástica: They were great as soon as we walked in. The Vet was very knowledgeable and nice. Answered all my questions.

Experiencia fantástica: I just took my cats for their annual exam/vaccinations Saturday. Dr. Myhre was thorough and compassionate with my cats, as she has been for years. I value her advice and after going to Hillside Pet Clinic for eleven years, we continue to receive great pet care and I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Experiencia fantástica: I always have great service at Hillside pet clinic. From scheduling the appointment, to greeting me on arrival, they are super friendly and gentle with my dog.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been going to Hillside Vet Clinic for 14 years. They treated my Labrador Retriever from 8 weeks old to 14 years old. They are very friendly and professional and I’ve been very happy with their very thorough explanation of all treatments.

Experiencia fantástica: Clinic is near my home. My cat was handled gentry and kindly.

Experiencia fantástica: Wonderful car for my kitty Got her in the same day, I called them. The treatment was great and she is on her way to healing.

Experiencia fantástica: Even though they were all booked they still let us come in so our hamster could be seen. The staff were very helpful and friendly. If our hamster needs to be seen again sometime down the road we will 100% be going back.

Experiencia negativa: We have been going to this vet for over 15 years. And when we got a pit bull mix they were judgmental and made us feel like a Pitt bull was bad. Really they are cuddle bugs and so sweet. When we had to put our first dog down they rushed the process and made a bad experience horrible. After that, we tried a new vet but had issues with Pitt bull judgement again. Fast forward 10 years and we got a reactive rescue Shepard. They blamed us for the reactive dog. One its the breed. Two we just rescued the dog with known issues. The only positive support was from their vet tech who instantly knew the breed and was like it’s partly normal and gave the dog a treat. Instant happy dog. Three years pass and no reminder to go in for shots etc. I call the vet and ask for help with a hurt dog and they tell me sorry we don’t take emergencies. Also shamed me for not going to vet in three years, but unless she needs a shot why would I torture the dog going to that hell. Deff need to find a better vet.

Experiencia fantástica: Very caring with my older dog who has not had the best luck or experiences with past techs and vets.

Experiencia fantástica: The receptionist worked with me to get a good appointment date wise and with my vet of choice. And, I was able to bring my dog in to see a vet tech ASAP. Very friendly all…people at the desk, vet tech, and most telling, perhaps, the other people in the waiting room☺️

Experiencia fantástica: I have been taking my pets here for years. The doctor's and staff have taken very good care of all my fur babies.

Experiencia fantástica: Great Experience, wonderful vets Dr Stevens and her staff are amazing. We are moving overseas with our pets and they are very helpful, they explained everything and just made the whole process soo much easier. Thank you!! I def recommend them.

Experiencia fantástica: I appreciate all the doctors at the clinic. All the staff, Techs are nice and know how to treat your fur baby with kindness and respect. Thank you Hillside pet Clinic

Experiencia fantástica: I recommend this place! Staff are respectful and friendly. I was able to get an appointment pretty quick! The prescription was affordable. 10/10

Experiencia fantástica: Finally found a great place that sees our pet goose, listen to our concern and help us get him better. They actually listened to us and im just very thankful that they also are able to see our pet goose. They did blood test and im happy they did that. They offered Xray too but we are holding off, on that since it can be really stressful for a bird. Very caring, experienced and professional vet. We will definitely keep this place in mind in the future for our pet geese or ducks.

Experiencia positiva: Everything was great except wait time. Didn’t get seen until 30 min after my scheduled appt time, then had to wait a good bit for the vet.

Experiencia fantástica: Love the team at Hillside Pet Clinic. Every vet and vet tech we’ve worked with have been amazing. They take the time to listen and answer all your questions and are absolute professionals dealing with your pet. Highly recommend them for all your pet’s needs.

Experiencia fantástica: I have brought my pets to Hillside off and on for a very long time. Their service is always great and my most recent visit I appreciate the doc we saw being very contentious of price and options. Also appreciated that I didn’t have to wait long for my appointment!

Experiencia fantástica: Hillside was a great experience! We are moving out of state and they were able to assess our black lab and give him a health certificate to fly. Everyone was very friendly and courteous. If we were staying I would make them my dogs vet

Experiencia fantástica: I was able to get my dog in next day. They really took such good care of my dog. They were very nice and very thorough and friendly. Totally recommend !

Experiencia fantástica: I rescue ferrets and there are very few Vet clinics with knowledgeable ferret Vets. Hillside has wonderful Vets with great knowledge of ferrets. Most likely the best ferret vets in Alaska right now.

Experiencia fantástica: Anchorage is so lucky to have Dr. Lorelei Hass. If you have a bird or exotic pet, Hillside Pet Clinic is THE BEST resource for quality, knowledgeable, compassionate care. I trust them 100% with our parrot. Thank you Dr. Hass for taking such good care of our community’s birds!

Experiencia fantástica: Meet with Dr.Wheatley for my dog's semi-annual appointment. She was so kind and gentle with my shy little dog and gave excellent advice for his anxiety and ensuring he maintained a balanced diet! So grateful for her care to my beloved dog!

Experiencia fantástica: Hillside Pet Clinic providers are very accommodating and helpful to meet the needs of our beloved pets. Pet owners and animals are treated kindly and respectfully. I appreciate that my pet is receiving the best possible treatment and trust everything is being done to help my pet stay healthy.

Experiencia fantástica: Hillside Pet Clinic is Exemplary when it comes to pet care! The staff is kind & sincerely cares about you and your pet (s). They give the highest quality of care! I will NOT take my cats anywhere else! Ever! Thank you Hillside Pet Clinic for taking such awesome care of my cats! You are the best! ❤️ Sydney L.

Experiencia fantástica: 10/10 highly recommend Adding again to say that Hillside is continuing their amazing care. I am a very happy pet mom and I know my reptiles are in good hands (and of course, so are my two precious cats) Update: Hillside Pet Clinic continues to provide stellar service. I now have a bearded dragon who has become my special needs baby and Dr Stevens has been a true blessing helping me care for my guy. ----- New snake mom here and I needed to get established with a clinic who sees exotic pets. Hillside was absolutely wonderful and welcoming. If you have a reptile in your life, I would definitely suggest going here for their care

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been taking my pets (dogs and birds) to Hillside Pet Clinic since 2003. Dr. Karen Myhre has treated my dogs for some time. She gave me many more months with my beloved JRT, pulling her back from the brink, for which I’ll be forever grateful. Yesterday, she saw my almost 13-year-old Staffie girl for various concerns. Despite its being a very busy day at the clinic, Dr. Myhre didn’t rush the appointment. She is always thorough, attentive, and compassionate. She is knowledgeable and thoughtful and kind. The clinic techs and administrative staff are, likewise, kind and welcoming. I have utmost confidence when I take a beloved pet to Hillside.

Experiencia fantástica: My bunny had an eye infection and they were able to get us in the next day. The vet and vet tech prioritized her comfort, make sure to soothe her when she got nervous during the exam before moving on to the next portion. They showed me how to give her meds and supplied them for us at the visit. The staff even moved us to the exam room as fast as possible so my bunny could be warmer, away from the windows. We’ve always brought our tortoise here because they are amazing with exotics. I’m happy to say that even though I live downtown, I will always go all the way to Hillside to get our pets seen there. Always.

Experiencia fantástica: My dog loves all the veterinarian’s at Hillside, but she’s happiest with Dr Montgomery. I won’t take my dog anywhere else. Thank you for caring for Jasmine Dr Montgomery

Experiencia fantástica: We love Dr. Montgomery! He listens to our concerns and educates us about our pets. We never feel rushed. The staff are all very helpful and friendly.

Experiencia positiva: Always a great comfortable time for Jax and I, Dr Gardner does a great job keeping Jax clam while the exam is being done and gives me tips to keep him happy and healthy.

Experiencia fantástica: We had an emergent situation with our leopard gecko, and Hillside worked us right in. The staff was very friendly and clearly showed their affection for pets, which made me feel very comfortable leaving him there. Our issue was resolved, and the doctor took great care in giving us follow up instructions and answering all our question. The staff also kindly followed up the next morning. I couldn’t have asked for better care for a beloved pet!

Experiencia fantástica: Another great visit to Hillside. Guinea pig Buttercup gives them 5 stars, too. Update 2025: same great service. All the staff are great. Buttercup is about 5 1/2 years old and going strong!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr Steven’s is a skilled, caring animal provider. I have Netherlands Dwarf rabbits, and it’s difficult to find vets trained on these animals. But she can also treat a cat, a dog, a bird, a snake. She is very gentle with my bunnies and seems to really care about their health, diet, and living environment. Plus the tech brought treats, so my bunny was very relaxed during exam. The front of the house associates express the same caring attitude. I won’t go anywhere else now!

Experiencia fantástica: Have used the Hillside Pet Clinic for over 15 years. Professional friendly always greeted with a smile. The doctors have cared for my birds, dogs and cats.

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you Hillside Pet Clinic for accommodating us with the 7 puppies and mom! We appreciate it so much. Dr Wheatly and staff are amazing. The appointment went very well, we were expecting it to be choatic with all of them in the room, but it went on smoothly! It was an awesome experience! Thank you from the 7 and Leeloo!

Experiencia fantástica: Had an amazing first visit with my kitten! The doctor was kind, personable, and made my nervous little one feel more comfortable.

Experiencia fantástica: They took great care of Gibson and were very friendly to work with. Gibsons root canal looks as beautiful as a canine root canal can, and he has fully recovered from the procedure with no associated pain or side effects. His teeth are also cleaner than I’ve seen since he was a wee pup. Overall a great experience and will definitely return here. Feb 8, 2025 update: still five stars and I’m endlessly impressed. I am moving out of the country with my dog and the Hillside staff are so knowledgeable and helpful. They are a breath of fresh air with this stressful process of moving with my dog! So thankful for them!!

Experiencia fantástica: Another great experience at Hillside Pet Clinic! Their staff is always very friendly and take great care of our dogs. Have been taking our dogs to them since I got my very first dog 15 years ago. Absolutely love Dr. Montgomery!

Experiencia fantástica: My pup tore his dewclaw pretty badly on this ice. Dr. Wheatley is the vet who saw us and she was wonderful! She was very empathetic and knowledgeable. My pup loved her and left the clinic with a wagging tail. I'll be using Dr. Wheatley as my primary vet from here on out!

Experiencia fantástica: Leslie was very friendly & helpful over the phone as well as when I came to the Clinic. I'm a new client and my pet chicken, Rudie Tootie needed special Critical care food for hand feeding. Thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome care and staff for our new rescue kitty. We needed a Saturday appointment and were thrilled Hillside Pet Clinic was accommodating. The experience was so good, we decided to get our new pet established there for the long term.
