the talk of the town

"Dr. Cooper is top notch and so knowledgeable! My dog Apollo had been feeling off for a few weeks, and I never would have expected it to be cancer. Dr. Cooper and her team were able to recognize the symptoms right away and refer Apollo into an oncologist for prompt treatment. I know that if she hadn't caught it as early as she did, he would not have had the same treatment outcome! He is now recovering and thriving! I can't thank Dr Cooper enough for her compassion and her vast medical knowledge. Highly recommend Valle Verde Animal Hospital!"

"Dr. Cooper and her team were exceptional! They were kind, attentive, and knowledgeable. They took great care of my dog and worked with me every step of the way. When my dog passed, they were kind enough to check in after and that's something I really valued, especially during the hard time. If you're looking for a vet that will care for your animal as you would, this is the place."

"Dr. Cooper is hands down the most intelligent, compassionate and dedicated veterinarian. Our sweet dog had an autoimmune disease that had been misdiagnosed by other vets, resulting in surgeries that could have been avoided. She was persistent in researching his condition and finding a treatment that gave him 12.5 healthy years of life with us. When he developed renal failure and was rapidly declining over a holiday weekend, Dr. Cooper made a house call with her wonderful tech to ensure his transition over the rainbow bridge was peaceful and he was surrounded by love. We will never be able to…

"My dog got attacked yesterday and I called so many vets asking for help, including the 2 vets she sees and no one could get her in for several hours. Valle Verde got me in within 30 minutes. They were so sweet to my girl. Thank you for making sure she was ok."

- Klassie

"I can't say enough good things about Dr. Cooper and the entire team. They are simply the best! From the moment you walk in, the clinic feels warm and welcoming. The space is spotlessly clean, modern, and designed with pets in mind, which immediately puts both you and your furry friend at ease. Dr. Cooper is an absolute gem. She's incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, and takes the time to explain everything in detail without rushing. Whether it's a routine check-up or a more serious issue, she treats every pet like her own, with gentle hands and genuine care. The staff is…

"Dr. Cooper is a very skilled and caring veterinarian who seeks to do all that is possible for a sick animal. She explains things clearly to me so I can implement care plans and helps with outside referrals if needed."

- Mary R.

"Love taking all our animals here. We have a tortoise, two cats, and two dogs, and we take them all here. The vets are very knowledgeable, kind, and caring. They love the animals they see as much as the owners love their pets. I would highly recommend bringing any of your pets here."

- Joel S.

"The people who work here were very kind to my daughter when she sadly had to put one of her precious rats to sleep. Thank you for your kindness."

- Ash A.

"They have always treated my rabbits wonderfully. Very good desk service every time, and very affordable."

- Sarah O.

"They got me in quickly to see my cat. It was a timely appointment, I did not feel rushed, and I felt the vet truly heard my concerns and took the time to converse and address them."
