Been coming here since 2016. Have always been there for my pets and I during the good and the bad times. Know that they are a small office and have their limitations before going in and you will be satisfied.

We take all of our dogs here :) Sadly our sweet pup Ralph passed away in November. Everyone at Hancock was so kind and comforting through a very difficult time.

Not recommended. I came here for my cat’s neuter. Before making the appointment, I clearly requested a neuter service, and they told me the cat just needed a checkup first, and if everything looked fine, the neuter could be done. However, after we arrived, they said we must wait until their neuter schedule opens — and that the cat must have a rabies vaccine by law. Since it was my first time at VCA, I just followed their advice. The bill came to $183 just for the checkup and vaccine. Later I searched online and found that most VCA locations include the rabies vaccine in their neuter package. That means I’ll have to pay twice for the same thing. Their neuter price is $800, which is much higher than the market average.
