The Playful Pet-Sitter gives this business five full bright stars. The doctors at Cinder Rock are committed to outstanding diagnosis and care for your family pets. We’ve personally used them for veterinary services for our own animals. The clinic is exceptionally clean, particularly the waiting room and the animal exam rooms. Cinder Rock has all the bells and whistles in equipment and technology needed to provide a gold standard of care for your pets. The veterinarians and staff are professional and friendly, but what really stands out the most is their compassionate nature. Cinder Rock helped take our beloved cat Jessie over the Rainbow Bridge in February 2021. It was the best experience we’ve ever had to date with a veterinary clinic and staff, even in the best of times. We’re forever grateful to Cinder Rock.
