Dr. Schaubert and her team specialize in helping pets and families through their final moments at home, where pets feel safe and calm. Reviewers consistently praise her compassion, clear explanations, and willingness to let families say goodbye without rushing, as well as reasonable fees relative to other in-home euthanasia providers. Acupuncture appointments also avoid the stress of clinic visits for anxious pets.
A single billing complaint from two years ago noted the office's strict no-refund policy even when a pet died before a scheduled appointment, though staff offered to redirect the fee to another family's care. This does not appear in any recent review.
Most visits result in pets noticeably calmer and treated by name vets praised for skill with nervous animals, exotics, and geriatric pets. Recent five-star reviews outweigh a billing complaint; one reviewer felt charged repeatedly for unclear diagnostics on a wound that remained unaddressed.
Staff and vets earn consistent praise for patience with nervous animals and genuine affection for pets, though the most recent 5-star reviews focus on successful procedures and kindness. One detailed complaint from two weeks ago flags inconsistency between providers, a booking error, and rough handling by some techs; this tension between strong general sentiment and isolated but serious concerns marks the clinic's current standing.
Over four years, reviewers consistently describe PAZ North as the most attentive and genuinely caring practice in Austin. Dr. Tackett, Dr. Wolfe, and the full team invest time in anxious pets and explain every step without hard selling; the non-clinical, home-like space and Fear Free ethos visibly relax animals. Puppy Kindergarten, same-day emergency slots, surgery follow-ups, and end-of-life support all earn praise for compassion matching competence. Recent complaints are narrow: one client was turned away for being 16 minutes late despite availability, and another noted a prescription request was withheld to encourage in-house purchase. These are exceptions in a stream of five-star reviews from long-term clients and newcomers alike. Staff continuity (Dr. Tackett, Maricarmen, Juliet, Kate named repeatedly) and community touches (complimentary beverages, rotating art wall) reinforce that this practice treats clients as neighbours, not transaction volume.
