What recent reviews say

Most visits go smoothly. Reviewers consistently note that staff and vets treat nervous pets with gentleness, remember animals by name, and explain procedures and costs upfront. Technicians like Molly, Dayna, and Alexis, plus vets Dr. Murphy and Dr. Fuentes, receive frequent specific praise for compassion and attentiveness.

A significant recent dispute involves a Grade 4 heart murmur diagnosed in August, later found to be absent by a second opinion, with $3,100 in recommended care that was not pursued. The customer reports unresolved attempts to cancel Thrive Plus memberships and receive refunds since August, despite escalations to management and the CMO. This stands as the main caveat in an otherwise positive profile.

Ten years of loyalty and trust define the experience here. From the moment a dog walks in, staff greet with water and kindness; appointments feel unhurried, questions get thorough answers, and vets explain what they find without overselling. Recent arrivals note the welcome packet and first visit free; one family from North Carolina found their vet family on arrival. The practice spans emergency care, wellness, dental work, surgery, and ultrasound. Named vets like Dr. Davies, Dr. Garza, and Dr. Tori Tran appear repeatedly across months of reviews. Staff photograph large dogs, call after treatment, and adjust care plans to match what an owner wants to spend-never pressure tactics. Families with anxious pets, bullies, and goldendoodles alike report the same calm, attentive tone.

Staff warmth and vet knowledge draw regular praise, but recent reviews surface tension between care quality and cost. Families mention loyalty to individual doctors like Dr. Lee, yet others report slow turnarounds on simple procedures and second-opinion reversals on expensive treatments. Newer reviews still voice frustration with waits and diagnostic gaps.

Lap of Love - Austin

4.8(145)✓ Google-verified

Every visit reviewers describe centers on an at-home goodbye, with named vets like Krista, Kimmie, Kelsi, and Spencer arriving prepared and calm. Families consistently mention clear explanations, time to grieve without rush, and small dignities like paw print keepsakes or patience while sitting outside where a pet felt safest. Lap of Love operates as a hospice and euthanasia service rather than a traditional practice. Scheduling happens over the phone with a staff member who quotes costs upfront. The business also arranges cremation through a local vet and offers follow-up pet loss support. Since opening in 2010, they serve greater Austin and surrounding areas.
