Compassionate, Friendly Staff

At West Valley Animal Hospital, every member of our team shares one unifying goal: treating your pet like a cherished family member. Guests often comment on the genuine warmth, patience, and kindness they receive from check-in to checkout. “Very friendly staff.

Expert Veterinary Care

Our veterinarians, led by the highly respected Dr. Hatchett, bring deep knowledge and meticulous attention to every appointment. Clients appreciate detailed exams and clear, jargon-free explanations of diagnoses and treatment plans. As one owner shared, “Dr. Hatchett listened to my concerns… provided a comprehensive summary of her findings,” while another noted, “She’s thorough, knowledgeable and will walk you through everything!” This commitment to excellence ensures that you always feel informed, supported, and confident in your pet’s care.

Specialized Care for Exotic Pets

Finding a veterinarian experienced with rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, and other small mammals can be a challenge—but at West Valley Animal Hospital, it’s one of our specialties. Pet owners rave about the clinic’s gentle, expert handling of exotic species. “It can be a challenge finding a veterinarian that truly cares about… rabbits. Karen and Dr. Hatchett were absolutely incredible,” one review reports. We offer sedation-free dental trims that safely shorten overgrown teeth, and our specialized approach minimizes stress on your exotic companion. One happy customer noted, “She took her time with my bunny Waffle in all his teeth trims,” and another praised our approach: “Cut back overgrown teeth with no drugs or sedative, very fair cost.”

To help anxious exotic pets acclimate, we also provide free 10-minute training visits. These short, no-charge sessions allow small mammals to explore the clinic and meet our team—reducing stress and fostering trust in future medical visits.

Clear Communication & Personalized Follow-Up

Transparency and open dialogue are hallmarks of our practice. We believe that well-informed owners make the best advocates for their pets, so you’ll always receive prompt phone consultations, email summaries, and cost estimates. One satisfied client said, “I also love the fact I can reference an emailed summary detailing my pup’s visit,” while another appreciated a fifteen-minute phone conversation that clarified every question. Our detailed follow-up messages reaffirm your understanding of home care instructions, upcoming vaccines, or dietary recommendations—ensuring continuity of care well after you leave our doors.

Value-Driven Pricing & Appointment Availability

High-quality veterinary services shouldn’t come with sticker shock. At West Valley Animal Hospital, we price our visits and procedures fairly, delivering outstanding value without compromising care. “Visits are reasonably priced,” and “Very reasonable in price too,” raved several customers. We strive to accommodate busy schedules and urgent needs, with flexible appointment times and same-day slots whenever possible. While having a single primary veterinarian occasionally leads to limited openings, our friendly staff is always ready to help you find the next available time that works for you.

Compassionate End-of-Life & Memorial Services

We understand that saying goodbye to a beloved companion is one of the hardest experiences any pet owner faces. That’s why our team approaches end-of-life care with empathy, dignity, and unwavering support. Clients commend our sensitive handling of euthanasia, noting that “they take care of the human during pet euthanasias, too. Caring and compassionate.” When the time comes, our thoughtful cremation packages offer families a meaningful way to honor their pet’s memory. “They did an amazing job with the cremation package,” wrote one grateful pet owner.
