See why people love Petfolk
Hands down the best experience I’ve had at a vet clinic. The team truly cares - not just about your pet, but about you too. They’ve taken wonderful care of my cat, Salem, and always go the extra mile. I’m so glad we found Petfolk by chance. It’s now our go-to for long-term veterinary care. Truly grateful.
Brought in my puppy TD today, and the entire staff was incredible - from the front desk to the vet tech to the veterinarian. They listened carefully, offered multiple treatment options for his allergies, and made me feel supported throughout. The clinic was spotless and everyone was so warm and welcoming. Petfolk has definitely earned a spot on our list for urgent care or visits.
My cat had lingering issues from a previous declaw, and I needed someone who could really explain next steps with compassion. Petfolk delivered just that. I booked quickly, they communicated clearly throughout the visit, and even sent live updates during her X-ray and sedation. The care felt genuine, and I won’t hesitate to return for any follow-up treatment or ongoing care.
