    It’s hard to find the perfect way to express the gratitude and praise our family feels for VCA Santa Monica Cat & Dog. Drs Johnson, Hubbard, and staff have showed our dog and family so much compassion and professionalism over the years that our dog Bogart was in their care. Dr Johnson was his primary Dr, and again no words can express the gratitude we feel having her by our side as he fought a cancer battle he sadly recently lost. Saying goodbye is so hard, yet Dr Johnson sat, cried, and shared Bogart stories, making something so hard to face a truly peaceful passing. Our family thanks you Dr Johnson for being the best Dr, diagnostician, and compassionate Veteran any family is fortunate enough to have care for the pet they love so much. Megan, and Bogart’s grandparents

    Highly recommend VCA Santa Monica and Dr. Johnson! They clearly love and care about your pets here. Facility is clean, and it’s easy to get ahold of them if you need anything.
