VCA Knowles Snapper Creek Animal Hospital

I’ve had a great experience with the team at VCA Knowles. The staff has always been professional, compassionate, and genuinely caring with my dogs. One of my dogs went in with a serious emergency and the doctors and team handled everything quickly and confidently which made a stressful situation a lot easier on our family. Thank you again to the entire team for the excellent care.

Today I went with my princesita because she has been getting worse. It was time for her to be in peace. I had never been to this clinic and a friend recommended it. They were so understanding and gentle to make the process of euthanasia less painful. I am so thankful to the staff and doctor that help me in this moment. The pics are before and after the process

Last night was a rough night for our family and our new puppy. You never expect to have to take your new puppy to a ER and last night we had to. The ladies at the front desk answered all our questions and instantly put us at ease. They were able to get us right in. The entire staff had excellent demeanor and were just so kind. We are extremely grateful to all of them for showing us so much compassion and patience! Thank you again to the entire team! We will definitely be back to see you all hopefully not in a ER situation!

Had a great experience here! Staff like Vicky here were very compassionate, kind, helpful, knowledgeable, and you can see the love they have for their pet patients. Dr. Fisher was very knowledgeable and offered a much better non surgical treatment for Winnie the family pooch (a White Golden Retriever pictured here) who had an ear hematoma. Facility is very clean and centrally located, and is open 24 hours for emergencies. I was very impressed and highly recommend for your fur babies and pets!!

I cannot recommend Knowles Animal Clinic in Sunset enough! They are always punctual, attentive, and have been there for me every time I’ve had an emergency with my dog. The entire team truly treats Rocky with so much love and care, and they’ve always been able to help fix whatever issue he’s having. The front desk ladies are amazing — always kind, attentive, and they never keep me waiting long. You can tell everyone there genuinely cares about the animals and their owners. Dr. Riera is incredible. She helped Rocky with his allergic skin condition and was able to find the right food for him, which made such a huge difference. Melany and Maura are also wonderful and always treat Rocky with patience, love, and care. Rocky is a very hyperactive dog and not always the easiest to control, but they handle him so lovingly every single time. I would recommend this location with my eyes closed. Thank you all for always taking such great care of Rocky!

This is the greatest place for my fur babies. I have been taking my animals here for decades. There's never been guessing evaluations or hidden fees. Recently my 3 yr old boy went in with a high level infection which needed immediate surgery. Not only was the staff concious of the complicity of this case, Dr Marina Riera arrived early for her shift just to attend my boy. Constant reassuring and confident of procedure she would perform. My boy recieved gentle care from all staff members, technicians showed love and support for both him and I. Recovery was at its best at the facility, post op instructions clear, follow up visits and phone calls as if he was one of their own. I have always trusted this hospital but the amazing treatment given to Charlie was exquisite.. there is not enough stars for this amazing hospital. Thank you to all who were involved and may you continue to do what you do best which is caring for all the souls who enter your doors. ❤️

When our cat Chester suddenly stopped eating after the loss of our older cat, we feared he was grieving. But within just a few days, he became jaundiced and dropped 5 pounds. We rushed him to an emergency vet who quoted us $6,000 before even diagnosing the issue. Feeling overwhelmed and unsure, we left and brought Chester to VCA Knowles — and I’m so glad we did. From the moment we arrived, the team at VCA Knowles treated Chester with compassion and urgency. They kept us informed every step of the way and quickly discovered he had ingested plastic, which had severely impacted his liver. It was a terrifying situation, but their care and transparency gave us hope. Chester is still in their care, and we’re praying for his recovery. While it’s been a costly ordeal, it’s nowhere near the initial quote we received elsewhere — and the quality of care has been exceptional. I’m incredibly grateful to the staff at VCA Knowles for their dedication and kindness during such a difficult time. Dr. Perez & Dr. Riviera were both very empathetic and great. I am praying for his recovery, he means so much to me and he is only 6 years old. Updated 12/23/25 - Chester is doing amazing thanks to the staff and Vets at Knowles. He is doing so well that he is Mr. February in "Paw Prints" 2026 Calander. I have added the pics for everyone to see. My Chester is Back to his Handsome loving self. Thank you, Knowles
