Den Herder truly cares about your pet! We have taken our 17 year old dog to Den Herder since he was a puppy and they have taken excellent care of him. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!

We have 3 dogs, 3 cats, a parrot and a kingsnake. Den Herder can take care of them all. Fantastic doctors and friendly staff. You will not be disappointed bringing your pet here.

I recently switched to Den Herder after years of going to a different vet. Within the first 6 months of being a patient, they’ve fixed my “mystery” pets! My old vet very much seemed to be one of those bad apples who were just in it to take money. At Den Herder they actually HELP and find permanent solutions. I love that they have multiple doctors on board so they can collaborate together and make sure nothing gets missed. I took my cat in with a problem thinking it was one thing, but turns out it was something else entirely that was found because they are so thorough and truly care about your pet! I now recommend Den Herder to all of my friends and family!

Took my poor dog 3 times to Dan herder, because my dog was not acting the same. After three X-rays and one full blood work. The doctor misdiagnosed my dog with a squished spine and prescribed wrong meds. Couple weeks later, my dog was just getting worse and I finally took him elsewhere, it was too late. His kidney and prostate infection was too advanced and passed away.???? they even said “yeah his kidney levels are alittle high but that’s nothing for you to be worried about”

We have been going here for 27 years and have never had a bad experience, even when it was time to let our furry family members go.

We have been taking our dog to Den Herder since he was a puppy and now are taking our new puppy to them as well. Every member on the staff from the front desk to the doctors themselves always make sure to give you 100% of their time and attention while you are there for your appointment while also getting you in and out in a timely fashion. They have always listened to our concerns and treated our pets like their own. I recommend them to any pet owner!

I have been taking my pets to Den Herder Veterinary for many years and would never go anywhere else. The quality of care is second to none. All staff are always friendly and welcoming and the facility is very clean. Dr. Tom Taylor takes very good care of Izzie and Coco, he always listens and addresses my questions and concerns. Dr. Taylor is gentle and patient. I love the follow up too. I highly recommend Den Herder Veterinary.

He took test without my permission. $330 total. My dog was not sick or injured. Took her in for 2 vaccine and get 12 heartguard. The bill was almost $500. I am retired and get $1,000 a month. I was at the facility but outside in my vehicle due to covid. Within 15 minutes they brought her back out with bill. OMG. He tried to call my home phone. Duh. They do have my cell because I was using it for the past year. He said it was in her best interest. I have spent lots of money there with grooming and taking our dogs there. Never again. I still can't believe he did this. Guess he has to pay for new building.

Dr. Lori took very good care of our bunny. You can tell she is very knowledgeable from the start! I am happy I chose Den Herder over any other vet! Bring your exotics to Lori!

People there are great and so accommodating! Prices are a little higher than other small town vets, but it's so worth it to have such nice and caring people handling your dog! Grooming services are top notch as well. Deb as established an awesome grooming service there and Savannah has been an amazing addition. Editing to add: 6/22/21 We had to take our dog into the vet last minute this morning due to a minor accident and saw Dr. Garrett. He got us in right away and was able to check our dog out and give us peace of mind that he would be okay. I just appreciate him sneaking us in in-between patients to examine him and make sure he was okay. Hands down I will always recommend Den Herder's for everything to everyone. Top not care for our pets and staff that care just as much.

Loved Dr. Jerry DenHerder and Lori Churney... before Jerry left. Now? This clinic has taken a HUGE turn for the worse! After the lack of knowledge by the attending vet, substandard service, and being hung up on several times by the office staff who wouldn't even consider letting me leave a message for Dr. Churney...and having sicker birds after paying over $200 to be told to continue what I'd already been doing and that I'm a good pet owner... I will definitely not go back. I'll truly miss Dr. Churney. She's an excellent avian vet. But her clinic staff is extremely unprofessional and unsupportive. My birds are sicker and I'm still looking for a different vet. If you have any complaint about the service you receive, be prepared to be told you are "treating their staff badly" and they will refuse to talk to you. I was hung up on several times for requesting one of the owners return my call.

Our dog has horrible anxiety/ fear when going to go to the vet. Dr. Garrett Knudson was very calm and caring when working with our dog. He made sure to make him feel as comfortable as possible during interactions, which I know is not easy. We can’t express how appreciative we are of the care that our dog received as we’ve had horrible experiences in the past. Between the staff up front to the techs in the back, we were well taken care of. Thank you to all the staff for making this a positive experience!
