This is by FAR the best vet there is. They are always so wonderful with my dogs. They are compassionate, caring, and understanding. They have always got us in same day when illnesses occur and always listen to concerns. They don't push unnecessary tests and only recommend things that actually help diagnose and treat. They don't make you feel rushed. They will answer all questions and thoroughly explain everything. They have gone above and beyond every time I've been there. There is sooo much more I could say, but I'll sum it up by saying they are nothing short of wonderful.

I take my 8 month old puppy to daycare several times a week, and he loves it! The staff is phenomenal and the facility is modern. Everyone is so nice and it’s a great feeling when my pup wants to run into the daycare….I know he’s having a blast!

The Staff Is Amazing! Very Sweet & Gentle With My Older Cat. I travel almost an Hour, and 100% Worth It.

Great place. Desk staff are so nice and helpful. Daniel the groomer is patient and so gentle with our crazy doodle. He always looks amazing and so happy. We have tried many groomers closer to our house but don't trust our fur baby with anyone else.

Since relocating to Barrington in 2022, I've entrusted the Animal Care Center of Barrington with the care of my beloved Border Terrier. I am consistently impressed by the exceptional level of care they provide.

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Hughes and the team here. As a new puppy dad, I've probably been overly cautious with some of the issues my very active pup, Scarlett, has had, but they've always been incredibly patient, understanding, and supportive. The techs are wonderful too—Scarlett actually gets excited to visit! Their kindness and expertise make every visit a positive experience. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a vet who truly cares about both pets and pet parents.

After a freak accident with our cat who ended up with a fractured jaw, the dental team, especially Dr. Washington and vet tech Becca, have been absolutely amazing and accommodating. From our initial consultation, to surgery, to us freaking out about every little thing, we have been met with such compassion and understanding. We were made aware of each step before, during, and after our first surgery which was very comforting. They listen to all our concerns and make sure to reassure us in moments of panic. We are extremely thankful and happy with the results thus far. We are looking forward to continuing our journey to recovery! Many thanks to all!
