Holistic Animal Care

We were looking for a holistic vet to help us with our youg pittbull with skin rashes. Dr Chalmers helped us narrow down what was irritating him...it was something he was eating. She put him on some supplements, we modified his diet and his skin/coat look and feel so healthy and beautiful! We are so glad we found Holistic Animal Care, as we too honor a holistic approach for our family's health. We since adopted another rescue dog who we now bring to Dr Chalmers. She is extremely knowledgeable, honest, and her assistant, Alexa is awesome...our dogs love her! Highly recommend if you want a natural approach for your pets.

Dr. Chalmers is my favorite vet, and we use her as our primary vet even though we live in Tennessee. All three of my dogs have made great improvements in their health and overall well-being since working with her and I love the natural approach.

The Dr is rude and routinely talks bad about her staff to other clients. She is unprofessional. I won't be coming here again. All the high reviews of this place is the Dr.s personal friends and sister. Don't believe the good reviews.

One is too many stars... My dogs needs a specialized diet. When I made the appointment I specifically asked and verified that they could handle my dogs needs. I called back a week before the appointment to confirm. When I got the there the dr rudely informed me that she doesn't do meal plans and then proceeded to tell me that she can examine my dogs energy and see if there are supplements for his food but she didn't do any of that. she took his temp and the appointment was over. I was out $80 and they did absolutely nothing. Plus I waited over a month for the appointment and drove over 2 hours to get there.

Working with Dr Chalmers has transformed the lives of my companion critters. They're far healthier and happier now. What I've learned has changed how i care for my animals, home and self. I'm far healthier now too! Dr. Chalmers invites her patients' humans to look at their environments in a new way. She shows us how profoundly effective it is to eliminate toxins and improve diets! My home, yard and diet has changed too as a result of observing the profound alterations in my beloved critters. As with all learning, there are challenges. Surmounting them is nothing short of transformative.

Quality care. Detailed assessments and follow through. Explains options for pet care. Helps us understand the negative impact of kibble to cats, and round up toxins in environment.

I highly recommend them to everyone I know with a pet. You have to believe in holistic remedies and put serious effort into the solutions for the treatments to really work. After going to damn near every vet clinic in Petaluma I was able to get a dermatology apt at the VCA, who diagnosed my dog as having an autoimmune disease. It took about 8 months and a lot changing medicines and doses before they had her setup with 2 types that produced stable results at a wopping $240 month for the rest of her life. After reading about the side affects of the medicines, I decided to do some research on alternative remedies and came across holistic animal care in santa rosa. Once I commit to bringing my dog to the clinic, the Dr overload me with information about protecting myself my family and my animals against all sorts of toxic products including EMF's & VOC's. At first I was skeptical about the method she uses to test my dog, but after only a couple of months of serious effort to reduce toxicity around the house, raw organic food and the right supplements, I noticed a huge difference in her energy levels and skin condition for the better. It's now been about 8 months and my one dog has now been able to ditch the more toxic medicine altogether and reduced the dose for the other medicine. The Dr is really nice once you get to know her and has good prices on her remedies and supplements. The Dr often has suggestions on where to buy the supplements in bulk to help reduce the cost and is always really friendly with my dogs and I
