Kings Row Pet Hospital

I LOVE this place! I mean it; I love it. I trust my fur kids life in their hands, and they do an incredible job here. Dr. Kingery has been our vet for over a year now and we just love her. She does so well making my dogs comfortable in the check up room, and always has treats waiting for them! They love her! I find their prices to be fair and competitive with other vets around us, and their building is very clean! I’ve never seen any blood, poo or pee anywhere. The front desk staff is super nice, and very good with my pups too. We hadn’t been there in about a year and when we came in one of the ladies at the front desk immediately ran out to us to see my dachshund/​German Shepard mix that she hadn’t seen since her last appt. A year later and she still remembered my little Olive! That was pretty special to me. I’ve found my fur kids forever vet!

I have been going to this place for a few years and just love it. They are very reasonably priced and don’t insist on treatments that aren’t necessarily needed. My pup has seen 3 vets and I’ve had good experiences with all of them. The front staff is very friendly. I can always get my dog in same day or next day worse case.

I had the most amazing experience here. I have a 4 month old puppy and I was there for a final exam and rabies vaccine. Dr. Cassie was so patient and nice with all my concerns. She could not have been sweeter. I will most definitely go there from now on.

This office has multiple veterinarians. The staff and Dr. Champagne show tremendous caring. I was very worried about my limping dog. Unfortunately, I had to wait an extra day for the appointment. Both visits I left feeling good as a dog owner. Boomer was very happy to see them all at the follow-​up visit. I have been at many different veterinarian offices in misc. States having raised 5 dogs. This one is special. The front desk personnel is extraordinaire, very welcoming!!! The entrance/​waiting room is spacious and enjoyable. One can choose to sit a bit tugged away from other animals which can be useful when one has a dog. I like their informative animal magazines and posts on the walls; learned while I was waiting. Great concept being able to put my dog on the scale in the waiting room. I was served quickly. Dr. Champagne is a jewel. She has been very present with my dog. I still wonder if she has animal psychic ability. I so very much appreciated her wisdom, honesty, communication style and peaceful personality. She is not into drama. I think she does not mention what does not benefit the owner to hear. I’m saying this because Boomer also had been at two other vets and their statements made me worry about his teeth, his well-​being, his behavior, his eyes, his weight. Dr. Champagne did not see a problem with his teeth and I feel hopeful around his eye infections. Her suggestions were new and require a reasonable effort on my part. Dr. Champagne had to perform a small surgery to solve the limping and I could pick him up two hours later. There was no follow-​up phone call to check in how he was doing. The fees and medication charges were very reasonable. I would recommend this vet to my friends.

Great place. We’ve seen 3 different vets here over time and everyone has been wonderful. They are providing quality care at a resonable price. And everyone just seems to enjoy what they do, from the receptionists to the vets.

We’ve seen Dr. Cassie and Dr. Champagne and both were wonderful. The doctors follow up after the appointment and let me ask as many questions as I want. We’ll continue to be patients as long as we’re in Reno.

We are new to Reno, NV so we were a little anxious about getting a good vet for our hunting lab. The Staff was very welcoming, professional and friendly. Dr. Cassie is excellent ! We felt Totally trust worthy.

Had to take my little female cat to Kings Row Pet Hospital today. She’s a stray that wandered up a year ago for food. Someone had dumped her and she was a pitiful sight. She is a tiny cat anyway but, she was skinny and malnourished. So sad. We feed the feral cats in the neighborhood because most of them are dumped by irresponsible people who don’t understand they can’t feed themselves.
Anyway, our Allie Cat came up pregnant this past spring and had a litter of two kittens. Since she wouldn’t leave them I figured it would be a good time to make friends with her. I parked my garden stool close to where she had her two little kittens and would sit there for 30 minutes at a time and visit with her. After about a week, she let me start handling the kittens. Then one day she came out of the little box, got up on the wooden box and asked me to touch noses with her. We were friends from then on. We found a home for one of the kittens and decided to keep the other one with Allie so she would have company. We had Allie spayed and her son neutered and they lived in the side yard all summer. Come fall, when it got cold, they moved in to the garage. Well, a few weeks ago I opened the inside garage door to let them out the big door and Allie walked right in to the house! Of course her son followed. Seems they live with us now, shall I say we live in their house! :-)
A couple of weeks ago Allie started to not feel well. She quit playing and laid around most of the day. Last Friday she was throwing up blood, Saturday not as much blood but, still wouldn’t eat. Sunday, no throwing up but, she had lost weight. I called Friday and made an appointment with Kings Row Pet Hospital and today had the privilege of meeting one of the BEST cat vets I think I’ve ever met. Dr. Kris fully understood that my Allie is still a little skittish and feral and she handled her the best way I’ve ever seen a vet handle her!
We’re still working on Allie’s issues. She has some intestinal problems but, I’m certain Dr. Kris will get to the bottom of it. She is one of the most thorough vets I’ve ever met!

We’ve been coming to Dr. Ditsworth for probably 20 years now, and have never had a bad experience there. From regular check ups, to ear infections, shots and even incredibly compassionate euthanasia, this office has seen our family through a multitude of ups and downs when it comes to our pets.
The office is clean and cheery, and the office staff are accommodating and friendly, even when you have to get fit in for last minute appointments. Dr. Ditsworth himself is an absolute gem, and while that phrase may seem clichéd, it’s the complete truth. You can tell he truly loves animals and his profession.
Tl:dr– This is a wonderful office if you’re looking for a vet in the Northwest part of town!

Dr. Ditsworth was great with our little green cheek conure. He took his time examining our birdie. Very gentle and very experienced with typical birdie behaviors. Reasonably priced exam. Thank you, Dr. Ditsworth!

So far really liked this place, brought my newly adopted 11 month old puppy there to get a cyst looked at and love that they gave me more then one treatment option. When I called to make the appointment they were super helpful and made sure it wasn’t an emergency before putting me on hold for only a minute. I had dr. Champagne and she got down on the ground w my dog and pet him, as well as scoured the medical records I brought in to make sure he had everything he needed without me having to bring him in again in a short period of time.
So far really pleased with this vet.

My dog needed stitches and this place was the closest to my house so I decided to give them a try. I walked in, was greeted immediately, and a vet technician came out to take a look at my dog. Just a few short minutes after, the vet came out to tell me EXACTLY what they were going to do, and even showed me the paperwork of how they broke down the cost for everything. They were very detailed and made me feel like my dog was in great hands. A week later, I took my dog to get his stitches out– I didn’t need an appointment and they took care of us within minutes. I was very pleased with the Kings Row Pet Hospital and will continue to go there for all my dogs vet needs.

I took my MinPin Cooper to have his teeth cleaned. Dr. Wilson did a wonderful job, very professional but the PRICE was 4 times of what I paid two years ago at Baring Animal Hospital. They claimed it was inflation, but an updated quote would have been $ 600 versus $ 1200.
PET OWNERS BEWARE!

They have lost my business. They have failed to help me twice during business hours for urgent care when a cat had to be put to sleep and when another cat needed abscess surgery and was in pain. Watch out for unnecessary charges especially for lab work. Most Vets charge double for lab fees if not more and 2 ½ to 3 times the price of prescription drugs. Vets there try to discourage you from getting lower cost medications from Pet Meds and other online pet pharmacies. I guess it’s their bread and butter like giving vaccinations. Pets are routinely called in for vaccinations every year although AAHA, a highly regarded Veterinary Medical Hospital Association whose accreditation is desirable due to its strict guidelines for veterinarians and their hospitals, say that most pets are highly over-​vaccinated and that every 3 years is sufficient. (Look it up on the internet! its TRUE!). The young, inexperienced staff is always changing and very often less knowledgeable than I am.
it is located in the old Welfare office shopping center.
General appearance is that it is run-​down; it smells awful and is always dirty regardless of the time of day. It should be cleaned several times a day– including the baseboards and walls which sport animal blood and soil build-​up. ‘Doesn’t exactly make you feel that the back office (surgery) is clean or sterile!
I can’t help but feel that this place used to be great, as I’ve heard that Dr. Ditsworth is a very caring Vet, but now it seems as if my (your) business is not good enough and that MONEY is the main motivation.
For goodness sake CLEAN THE PLACE!!!

My 12 year old dog loved it here!
The front desk staff was very nice & helpful! The vet I saw was really sweet, she made sure my dog was comfortable with her before she did anything! He was very happy with the way he was treated (he’s had issues with the last vet’s office he was at).
They even told me about a low cost vaccine clinic they had coming up.
When I took both my dogs to the vaccine clinic we were in and out within 20 minutes!
I will be going back here for all of my vet needs!

My dog loved this place. Didn’t have any problems with the vet, or the exam. Total bill was very reasonable. I will never bring my dogs to a different vet after this experience.
Btw… My dog is 12 and is kinda a grumpy old man sometimes; so him liking the experience is a big deal to me.

Kings Row is the best Veterinary clinic in town. I’ve been to several in town, and can honestly say that this the only clinic I will ever go to. Dr. Dittsworth saved my bird after a very damaging and traumatic biopsy that resulted in a wing amputation done by another vet in town. Dr. Wilson was very compassionate, and honest, when we were facing euthanasia for one of our cats, and Dr. Champagne was great with another of our cats.
They are honest, don’t charge you for things you don’t need, and are always willing to answer questions.

What a Difference! My (now former) vets office is open ONE saturday per month, doesnt take ANY appointments after 5pm and are extremely unhelpful (Sierra View Animal Hospital… nice people if you arent a working person). Kings Row is open every other saturday AND has a vaccination clinic (think less than $ 10 for a rabies vaccine) that you can walk into. They don’t pressure you into a checkup (like most vets offices) they just get you in and out quickly and efficiently.
I would highly recommend them to ANYONE who is looking for a great, easy vet experience.

This was my dog, Elsie’s vet for about a year and they were always professional and polite. It was pretty easy to get an appointment and of course they had treats and lots of pets for Elsie.

A friend referred me to King’s Row Pet hospital, and I’m glad they did. Dr. Sarah Wilson gave my puppy a thorough examination, and did not seem put off by the several questions I asked her, she was patient and kind to my dog. A week or so later, my puppy got hold of a ham hock, he chewed it up into little pieces and swallowed them and got really sick, he was vomiting and very lethargic. I took him in and Dr. Wilson x-​rayed him to make sure he didn’t have a blockage. she called the next day to check on him.
About 2 months ago I took him in for neutering, Dr. Champagne was the vet doing neuters and she was great, my puppy was scared and shaking but she spent a good 10 minutes with him petting and talking to him until he was calm and willingly went with her.
The office staff is professional and I have never had to wait long to see a Vet, I highly recommend them, the only negative is they do not have 24 hour staff, so if your dog/​cat requires hospitalization they will refer you to another clinic
