What Our Clients Say
Don't just take our word for it - our clients rave about our services! Here's what some of our satisfied clients have to say:
- "Dr. Peterson and his staff are amazing. I was looking for boarding services for my Baylee. When I arrived at Cedar Creek, Dr. Peterson came out and not only answered all my questions, but also gave me a tour himself. Just recently, I boarded Baylee and when I picked her up, he helped me carry her belongings to my car. Baylee is well taken care of when she boards at Cedar Creek. She is never skiddish, but excited when I drop her off and she's well-rested when I pick her up." - Andrea
- "Dr. Peterson and the staff of Cedar Creek Pet Hospital have been just wonderful to our family dog Sherman. He loves to go for grooming, boarding and vet services. He's always excited to go and when we pick him up, wagging his tail! We drive from Shawnee for the extraordinary service. It's worth it!" - Suzie Wrigley
