Safe Harbor Animal Hospital

We’ve been bringing our two French bulldogs here for years, and we truly couldn’t imagine trusting their care to anyone else. The entire team is compassionate, knowledgeable, and incredibly patient—especially with our pups’ quirky personalities and occasional health hiccups. Whether it’s a routine check-up or something more urgent, they always take the time to explain everything clearly and make sure we feel supported every step of the way. It’s rare to find a vet that combines clinical excellence with such genuine kindness. We’re so grateful to have them in our neighborhood!

I absolutely love this place! The staff is amazing and you can truly tell how much they care about every animal that walks through the door. Everyone is so kind, patient, and welcoming. My dog is usually very nervous at vet appointments, but she was actually playing and completely at ease - they made her feel that comfortable! She even got a free Kong with our purchase of Credelio Quattro, which she absolutely loves. It was such a sweet little surprise! It’s such a relief knowing she’s in such caring hands. I can’t say enough good things about this team. We love coming here!

We recently switched to Safe Harbor Animal Hospital after being recommended to me for the care of my vaccine reactive, beach loving golden retriever and I am so happy we did! Dr. Kevin and his team have been so proactive and supportive in caring for my Scout! They made the transfer experience seamless and were transparent about the process of vaccinating after a history of allergic reactions. The staff is so kind and the practice is clean and spacious. Scout even made a new friend in Harbor, the office kitty! We are super enthusiastic about our switch to Safe Harbor and will continue to visit them for any vet needs!

The warmth and professionalism of the staff was exactly what we needed as anxious pet owners. Dr Shuler took the time to explain everything to us thoroughly and the entire staff showed genuine care for our dog. We even left with a personalized goodie bag.

I have been a long-time client of Shuler Veterinary Clinics and deeply trust their team with the care of my dogs. Over the last two months, the staff provided invaluable support as we navigated end-of-life care for my 13-year-old German Shepherd. I am incredibly grateful for the compassionate guidance, help, and services they provided during such a difficult time. More recently, I brought in my newly adopted shelter dog for her initial evaluation. She was a bit skittish, but the staff adapted to the situation, ensuring she was treated with a minimal amount of stress. From senior care to new beginnings, they are truly exceptional.

Can’t thank these guy enough for the great personal care of me and my pup Dream! Moving to a new area and finding new care for your companions is a hassle but had a great experience!

I am impressed with Safe Harbor Animal Hospital. Dr. Schuler is a very empathetic, kind veterinarian and this is exhibited by the team that works at the vet. We have gone to the Ben Sawyer location and now the location on 17N near Oakland Plantation. We were patients of a well established vet practice in downtown Charleston. 5 years ago, our dog was critically sick , our prior vet who we were established with for 7 years, told us they couldn’t see him due to being busy, with no recommendations for another vet, other than Google. I’m glad we googled and phoned Animal Hospitals of the Lowcountry and they asked us to come in- same day. Unfortunately we had to put our dog down, due to significant cancer, the compassion they showed us and our dog was incredible. So much so, we’ve had our dog Diego as a patient there since he was a puppy. Diego is quite anxious and high strung. The team and Dr. Schuler are very understanding and always provide a low stress environment for him, which makes for a great experience. We appreciate Dr. Schuler and his team!
