The customer service is just as wonderful. Everyone is so kind, welcoming, and genuinely cares about both the pets and their owners. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing Sully is in such loving and capable hands. They make the entire experience stress-free, and Sully always seems comfortable and well cared for.
Thank you, Jasmine, and the entire Ruffit team, for always going above and beyond. Your dedication and kindness truly make a difference, and I wouldn’t trust Sully with anyone else!
Still here and still love it! A year later and Kakashi still loves it too!
Happy Friday! Check out some puppies

🐾 Flea & Tick Prevention Matters! 🐾
Summer is here, and that means flea and tick season is in full swing! Warm temperatures and increased outdoor activity make this the busiest time of year for these unwanted pests.
At daycare, boarding, and grooming facilities, dogs spend time playing, socializing, and sharing spaces with other pets. That’s why keeping your dog on a veterinarian-recommended flea and tick prevention program is so important!
Fleas and ticks aren’t just a nuisance—they can:
❌ Cause itching, skin irritation, and allergic reactions
❌ Spread diseases to pets and people
❌ Quickly infest homes, yards, and pet facilities
❌ Put other dogs at risk
By keeping your dog’s prevention up to date, you’re helping protect not only your own pet but every furry friend they interact with. Prevention is much easier, safer, and less costly than treating an infestation.
Thank you for helping us maintain a healthy, comfortable environment for all our guests this summer! ❤️🐶
☀️ Peak flea and tick season is here—make sure your pet is protected before their next visit!
📅 Not sure if your pet is current on prevention? Contact your local Ruffit or @cityvet today.

As a devoted pet parent, you know that keeping your furry best friend hydrated is a top priority, especially during the sweltering summer months or after a rigorous game of fetch. But sometimes, plain water just isn’t enough to replenish what your dog has lost. You might find yourself wondering, "can dogs have electrolytes?”
For more information, check out our blog post by Dr. Meyer and CityVet | Aurora at the link in our bio!

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.

What stood out most was how personal the experience felt. I never felt like just another client or that my puppies were just another appointment. It was clear that Dr. Farr and her team truly cared about them and understood how much they mean to me. When I picked them up, I knew they had been well cared for, and the thoughtful follow-up afterward only reinforced that feeling. Great veterinary care is important, but finding a team that treats your pets like family is something special. I am incredibly grateful for Dr. Farr and everyone at CityVet White Rock for taking such wonderful care of my babies.
Dr Angelis is wonderful and we will give my Penny the best quality of care, keeping her comfortable.
Thank you everyone for your time and care!

Cassy is truly the heart of the practice. Her compassion for animals is genuine and unmistakable. She doesn’t just know the pets who come through the clinic—she remembers them, follows up on them, and sincerely cares about their health and happiness.
Years ago, Cassy helped me navigate treatment options for my sweet boy, Foster’s hip dysplasia including laser therapy that significantly improved his comfort and mobility. She was always patient, encouraging, and willing to answer questions. Her knowledge and dedication made a difficult situation much easier to manage.
Today, Cassy continues to provide that same exceptional level of care for my puppy, Hudson. Whether it’s helping coordinate appointments, answering concerns, or simply checking on how he is doing.
I am also deeply grateful to Cassy and Dr. Coville for helping me manage Hudson’s sensitive stomach and Shar-Pei Fever. Anyone dealing with a chronic condition in their pet knows how stressful and emotional it can be. Dr.Coville’s thoroughness is unmatched and Hudson absolutely adores her. He loves going to City Vet.
In a world where exceptional customer service is becoming harder to find, Cassy and Dr.Coville are truly one of a kind. Their dedication, kindness, empathy, and love for animals set the standard for what veterinary care should be.
After more than a decade of knowing Cassy, I can honestly say she has made a meaningful difference in the lives of both Foster and Hudson, and in mine as well.
CityVet Uptown Dallas is fortunate to have someone as remarkable as Cassy leading the office, and I wholeheartedly recommend this practice to anyone looking for veterinary care from people who treat your pets like family.
10/10 absolutely trust this team with my dogs.
Before the fireworks begin this Fourth of July, remember to contact your veterinarian to discuss any medications your pet may need to help manage anxiety and stress caused by loud noises. Planning ahead can make the holiday much more comfortable for your furry family members. Wishing everyone a safe and happy Fourth of July! 🎆

As a devoted pet parent, you know that keeping your furry best friend hydrated is a top priority, especially during the sweltering summer months or after a rigorous game of fetch. But sometimes, plain water just isn’t enough to replenish what your dog has lost. You might find yourself wondering, "can dogs have electrolytes?”
For more information, check out our blog post by Dr. Meyer and CityVet | Aurora at the link in our bio!

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!

Happy National Kitten Day to the tiniest troublemakers with the biggest personalities!

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.
