We’re Honored to Be Named the #1 Veterinarian in Surprise for 2026!
We’re truly honored to be voted the #1 Veterinarian in Surprise for 2026 by our client reviews, and even more grateful for the trust you place in us every day.
We are a local clinic in Surprise, Arizona, proudly owned by Dr. Jonathan Bycroft. Thank you for supporting our neighborhood practice and for trusting Dr. Bycroft and our team with your pets’ care.
What makes a great veterinary experience? It`s more than medical expertise—it`s compassion!
When pets feel safe, and clients feel heard, it creates better care for everyone involved. At CityVet, we believe kindness is just as important as clinical excellence, and we`re grateful to hear that reflected in the words used to describe us.

Did you know?!
Unlike us (and even dogs), cats are missing the taste receptor gene that allows them to detect sweet flavors. As true carnivores, their taste buds are designed to help them seek out protein instead.
Understanding how your cat experiences the world can help you make informed choices about their nutrition and keep them happy and healthy!

July is Pet Hydration Month!
It`s a great reminder that staying hydrated is essential for your pet`s overall health—not just on hot summer days. Keep an eye out for signs of dehydration like excessive panting, dry gums, sunken eyes, lethargy, or decreased skin elasticity.
A full water bowl may seem like a small thing, but it can make a big difference in keeping your pet happy and healthy.

Did you know dogs can get sunburned, too?
While light-colored pups are at higher risk, any dog can experience sun damage after too much time in the sun. A little shade and sun-smart planning can help keep your best friend safe all summer long.
