    The Leber’s
  • "Amazingly helpful and knowledgeable staff, excellent prices, and most importantly, great with my pets. I have gone to many and this is the first that I haven’t felt robbed after I leave"
    Sarah G.
  • "I was very impressed with this place. I took a rescued dog there and the veterinarian took his time examining him. He answered all our questions & didn’t recommend things to make more money. He understood we might not be keeping the dog permanently. However, we decided to keep the dog and will continue to patronize this pet clinic. We chose this place as it was highly recommended on the Folsom forum"
    JC P.
  • "Dr Joe & Pet Vets in Folsom True animal lovers…. and in my opinion the best vet in Folsom. Dr. Joe has to be one of the most compassionate and caring vets in the business. His wonderful treatment of Pet Vet patients and their owners is unlike any other Veterinarian or human Dr.s office I’ve ever experienced. I can’t recommend visiting Pet Vets and Dr Joe enough and I think you’ll agree he’s the best"
    Brian
  • "Pet Vets — Great people, Great Pet Care. I am new to Folsom and I recently had a very sick kitty. Even though Dr. Tish had never seen my kitty before, she treated him like one of her own. The rest of the girls who saw my kitty are extra special, too. A truly professional group"
    Carol
  • "You are all very special to me and my family. The love and concern you all put forth when dealing with Teva’s mystery illness was more than anyone could hope for when caring for a beloved family member. Thank you. After her passing, the cash donation you made in her name to UC Davis (Veterinary) was more than I could have ever expected. We have been with you for about 15 years. Five dogs and two cats later, and you guys keep getting better and better! Thank you so very much. Please don’t change… we are loyal Pet Vets people."
