★★★★★ I had called my vet of 20 yrs for an urgent appointment for my dog and was told by the receptionist there were no available appointments until the end of May. I called Big Rock Vet and was surprisingly pleased with a call within 5 min and appointment the same day. The staff from the receptionist to the vet tech to the Dr were extremely friendly and showed great compassion to our problem. I would absolutely recommend them and has since changed to them! Thank You Big Rock!Lori L.Lori L. ★★★★★ We are new to the area, and our Declan had his first visit at Big Rock this week. We love it! The place was spotless, smelled great, and everyone was super friendly and polite. So happy we found you!!Kristen B.Kristen B. ★★★★★ I had a very positive experience with Big Rock veterinary very nice people and very nice to my stubborn dog thanks againToni P.Toni P. ★★★★★ The doctors and staff at Big Rock are extremely patient, compassionate, and caring. They are good Vets too! Haha. My pets (Peanut our Cat and Pretzel our Doodle) have been under their care for many years. They took Peanut in when he was sick on a Saturday because our regular Vet wasn’t open. I was so amazed they agreed to take him and they were so concerned for him. As of that day he was their patient for years until he passed away. Now they take care of our wackadoodle Pretzel. I couldn’t be more trusting or happy. Highly recommend!!! Thank you!Sam H.Sam H. ★★★★★ Since the pandemic, most veterinarian offices have lost their compassion and empathy for their patient's "parents". Believe me, I understand, it is a "business", and the profession is extremely stressful and draining, but when a "family member" is ill, a little compassion goes a long way to comfort the parents of the patient! Big Rock's staff is compassionate, understanding, and extremely accommodating, especially for a neurotic pet owner like me:). Shannon was outstanding and handled a very difficult pet with ease and expertise. We have seven four-legged children and going forward, they will be Big Rock patients! Thank you for the wonderful service you provided for our very "special" child Maddie. She's doing well and she thanks you too!!!Judith K.Judith K. ★★★★★ Our puppy broke her leg last year and we were so worried. The staff and doctors took great care of her to ensure proper healing.

Definitely going back for checkups and anything else that comes up with our animals.Katy K.Katy K. ★★★★★ I’m not the type to leave any sort of review but If I could give a 10 stars review to this place I would. One of the most hardest moments of my life was having to put my dog sassy down somewhere by myself . I don't have family to come with me or support me through things like this which makes it all the more harder. big rock really stepped it up and got me through it like they were family and a part of my dogs life. I even received a signed letter from all of the staff sending love for my loss. Thank you so much to you and your team for making my experience as heart warming and comfortable as it could be on my own.

They found me a last minute appointment for the next day within 5 minutes.

They made a hard decision and rough time in our families life extremely soothing.Robert B.Robert B. ★★★★★ They made my dog feel at ease.Deb M.Deb M. ★★★★★ They always take such good care of our cats here. Super nice and friendly staff. They're very informative and always happy to talk things over with you. It's easy to see how much they care about their furry clients. The dental technician really seems to know her stuff, and I love that she was the one to call with updates during one of our cat's dental procedure. It gave me a lot of comfort getting to talk to the person actually doing the dental work. I definitely feel good about our decision to bring our cats to Big Rock.Kara B.Kara B. ★★★★★ I got my boy almost 7 years ago and really didn't know where to take him for veterinary treatment. I picked a place and wasn't really happy. It wasn't clean and I always felt rushed when I took him there. My neighbor told me about Big Rock and I tried them out. We loved it. Most every time we go there either the vet or the assistant (or both) gets down on the floor and plays with Rupert. I believe their care is very thorough and they are always quick to respond to any of my concerns.David N.David N. ★★★★★ First time at big Rock after our regular vet couldn't see us. They were incredibly kind from the first phone call! Office was clean and comfortable. Staff was very friendly and compassionate with our scared kitty.

I have a difficult dog and they were so helpful and willing to determine a way to treat him.Nicole B.Nicole B. ★★★★★ Friendly & caring staff, happy puppy !Rita L.Rita L. ★★★★★ My dog Cooper needed a Vet ASAP. My normal vet could not see him until Weds. They told me to call Safe Haven for help. I called them and they told me that Cooper needs an ER vet because of him eating raisins. I was at a loss and crying and had been told by my neighbor that Big Rock is a great vet. So, I called and they asked could I be there by 10:30 and I said yes. The ENTIRE staff are amazing and you can feel the love and compassion when you walk in. I am so grateful for them and helping me with my boy.

Sarah L.

Excellent, high standard of care at reasonable prices. I’ve referred several neighbors and family members to this practice since it opened 5 years ago, and they’ve all been just as pleased. Friendly, patient veterinarians and staff (even with fractious cars and fearful dogs). So glad to have them here in Beaver County!

Stephanie G.

We decided to bring our pack here after a few sour experiences at a precious office. I am so glad we did! They take care of all our babies- the senior, the scared, and the anxious. They are always patient, kind, and answer all of my questions. I also appreciate they try to make suggestions if you are worried about cost. Thank you for all that you do! You probably do not hear that enough.
