Pet Care Specialists Columbus, Nebraska

Super friendly staff and my dog loves staying there when he needs boarding. ♥️

The caring, professional, compassionate staff here always makes you feel like family ????

The staff has always been friendly and knowledgeable. The Doctor even called our house 3 days after our visit to check on the welfare or our dog. That was very Professional and Respectable of the Vet to do that. Other business owners, Doctors etc. need to take note.

Love this vet. They actually care about my animals and somehow remember them and their personalities. I also love that they have an after hours number for emergencies and that they are honest about if they think you actually need to come instead of having you come in and charging you up the wazoo.

Very friendly and helpful ????

Dr. Schultz is the most sincere amazing get. She was available when we needed her on a holiday weekend! Thank you Pet Care for always being amazing with our furbabies!

The Dr.s and staff are simply wonderful...they are always ready to help with any problems our fur babies have. Thanks Dr McDonald and staff.

Very professional and courteous. My dog feels safe there and that's what I look for in a veterinarian.

They were very nice.we found a very nice dog from there. It is a good place to find a new family member. Good luck

Staff is amazing and they take great care of my fur babies! Thank you

We brought our brand new puppy in and they helped us with every question and concern we had!

Pet Care is one of the best Vets in Columbus in my opinion. The Vets and their staff are kind, friendly and treat your pets like they are family. I would recommend it to anyone.

Always so helpful and compassionate.

They are very nice and I take all our animals there for their care

Always caring and friendly service!

We work with Dr. McDonald, she does a great job with Diesel. Never had a bad experience here.

The vet we got was amazing. Super good with my dog (skii). Explained everything in a way I could understand

I always know our pets are in good hands with these guys! Have never had any issues!

Vets have always taken great care of my dogs. Always answer calls quickly and ready to help in a moments notice.

Pet Care really cares about our pets! They are super efficient and appointments go very quick. I wouldn't take any of my pets to any other facility.

Very happy with the care our pet got. She doesn't complain when she's finished

They care for my dog as if she was their own pet.

They take very good care of my dogs

Very caring staff and excellent service!

Amazing place. Super caring and very friendly. Dr. McDonald is very pet oriented. So glad I found them

We love Tracey she is the best vet. I would not trust my furr baby with anyone else. She is so caring and she is so awesome with my pets. Would recommend this place to everyone. Everyone that works there is just so friendly and amazing. They know me by name and they care for my pets as if they were their own. The facility is always very clean. I can't say enough good things about Pet Care Specialists.

I had an emergency with my little dog and they called me eight back and met me withing 10 minutes. Dr. Wagoner was calm and explained everything. Highly recommend.

My sister and I took her baby kittens she rescued here to get checked out. The Dr said she was going to take them back to do a fecal test. When she brought the kittens back to the room she had given them multiple shots and tests that she had not let us know she would be doing. The shots she had given the kittens had made them sicker and she didnt even warn us, so that we would have a heads up. It really had us worried that what she had done was going to kill the kittens, and when we called her to see what was going on she didnt return our phone call. I ended up calling my vet in Omaha explaining the situation and getting help/answers from her. Will not ever take another pet there to get checked or recommend this place to anyone!

Being a new resident of Columbus, NE, I was in need of a groomer for my dog. I asked for recommendations on where the best place in town was to get your dog groomed and more often than not, I was referred to Pet Care Specialists. The first time I called to ask questions about their services, I spoke to 3 different employees (2 of which were groomers) and no one could give me direct answers to my questions about pricing and grooming packages. Despite that negative experience, so many people swore that they were the best groomers in town, so I went ahead and scheduled an appointment. His first grooming appointment was in April. His haircut was okay. I wouldn't say it was bad, and my experience with the staff was way more positive than the first time I had spoken with them. So I went ahead and scheduled my dog's next appointment 3 months out, considering they get booked fairly quickly. Fast forward 3 months... No schedule reminder. I am luckily organized and had the appointment on my phone calendar and remembered so I called to make sure my appointment was still on, which it was. So I go in to drop my dog off for his appointment at about 7:50am. The woman at the front desk was very short in her demeanor and barely took any time to make sure we were both on the same page about what was being done. 8 hours later... I still had not received a call that my dog was finished. Getting worried that maybe my phone number was not correct on their end, I called and asked about getting phone calls when grooming appointments are complete. The answer I got was that I have to specify that I want a phone call when my dog is done.... Completely absurd response. They tell you to drop your dog off between 7:45am-8:30am on the day of the appointment and that is it. There is not a scheduled "time" for the grooming, just a scheduled day; therefore, how are you supposed to know when to expect to pick up your animal? So I rush to pick up my dog, not knowing how long he has been done. I walk in, and there are a couple of customers that were waiting on the bench for their pet and then me. I was not greeted ONE SINGLE TIME. When the receptionist is finally ready for me, she tells me my total and it was higher than the time before, so I thought that maybe my dog had some difficult mattes and therefore got charged for the extra time it took (which is customary at most groomers). Once she gives me the official receipt, I see that my bill was higher because my dog received a vaccination - WITHOUT my consent. When I questioned the receptionist about this, I was immediately greeted with an attitude that suggested that I was bothering her, but to be honest, I don't care! I asked if they had my correct phone number on file, and they did, and then wanted to know why I didn't receive a phone call to inform me that he needed a mandatory bordetella vaccine. Just to clarify, I am not against my animal being up to date on his vaccinations, however, they did not know if he truly needed the vaccination. The medical records I provided from my previous vet did not specify if the vaccination was a 6 month or 12 month bordetella vaccine. Therefore, why would you not to call to clarify?! Regardless, they refunded me for the vaccine and apologized, however, his haircut was uneven and there were pretty large spots that were missed on his legs and hind end. In short, I will be finding a new groomer that respects me and my pet and will be consistent with communication and information.
