I took my dog here for boarding recently. The front desk attendant had no idea how to work her own billing service and ended up having to run my card twice when I tried to pay upfront. Dropping off my dog took almost 45 minutes. Then when I came to pick my dog up, a different person said I still owed money - she said she was charging me for $3 and it just came up on my billing statement as $6. On top of that, when I picked my dog up her foot was bleeding profusely because they had trimmed her nails too short. Don't go here. I know I won't be coming back.

Everyone here is friendly and understanding here. They do their best. Totally trust them with my animals.

On May 10th we packed up our RV and made the 2 and half hour drive to Cody, WY from the Lake Hotel in YNP where we are working for the summer. I rushed my 5lb. sixteen and a half year old teacup chihuahua to Lifetime Small Animal Hospital at around 3am for emergency services. She was having severe labored breathing. I wasn't sure what was wrong but I knew that something was terribly wrong. My worst fear was that my little dog was dying and my gut instinct immediately told me that she would not be coming home. And that as her mother, it was up to me to make sure that she did not suffer through this process. My heart was broken. I do not have any children and she was my baby and my very best friend in the world. We spent 16 wonderful years together traveling the country. To my surprise Dr. Prior admitted her and put her in an oxygen tank. (she was very quick to let me know how lucky I was that she could administer oxygen, the only vet in the area that can). She was having a negative reaction to the altitude set off by congestive heart failure. She kept her for two days in that tank. I was allowed to visit and that made me feel a little better. Dr. Prior said not to worry!!! That these issues could be controlled with the proper meds and that she could live a healthy happy few more years. On the third day, Dr. Prior said that she could come home. That we needed to monitor her closely while her meds started to work. LD had not eaten or had had a bowel movement in days. Again, my major concern was her quality of life. I asked Dr. Prior several times throughout this process about her suffering and whether or not this was a life that we could sustain. She assured me several times that it was not time to put her down. A vet tech then gave her a hydration treatment beneath her skin. Dr. Prior assured me that this was a painless procedure and that it would keep her hydrated. A very needed procedure due to the dry climate here and that her new meds would serious dehydrate her while helping her heart but also failing her kidneys. I was very very skeptical-but overjoyed that she was coming home and trying to find some faith that she would be okay. I trusted her. Bad decision!! My major concern from that point forward was her quality of life on these meds. Obviously, the altitude was an issue. We made immediate arrangements to move back down to sea level as soon as her "med cocktail" was correct and she was cleared for travel. Lydia Deetz had never had any prior health conditions. She was always up to date on her check ups, vaccinations etc. If anything most vets, who have seen her over the years were always surprised at how spry she was in her old age. No one could explain it-but always said to be grateful for her longevity. For I was extremely lucky to be able to enjoy my very best friend for so long. I never took it for granted, she meant the world to me. (see photos for finish)

Great place to go - my cat hates going to the vet and every time he has an appointment at Lifetime Small Hospital he is treated with great care. After his appointment he sits on counter and let's all the girls pet him up. I love them and have always been treated with great respect.

I have had my dog spayed there and with their help she recovered very nicely I will definitely be going there in the future.

I brought my adopted alley cat in for a check up. First thing they give him 2 vaccines then ask if I want a test for Feline HIV and Leukemia. Well of course. So at end of visit, he had rotten teeth ( starts at $700 goes up from there to fix) kidney insufficiency and + HIV. That visit was $350 only for me to make an appointment for euthanasia for next day. For euthanasia they charged me $106. So including the flea medication I bought the week before, I spent $500 in one week on a cat I don’t have. You think they would have given me a discount on euthanasia , which I asked, but doc said no. The only good thing about this place are the assistants. They were very kind and helpful

Our Labrador picked up something that got her very sick. Would not eat & diarrhea. We called them and got in right away. Great receptionist, great Assistant & a great Doctor. They showed great compassion toward her situation. Diagnosed her condition and set us up with some pills. Within a few days she was getting back to herself. We received a call from them later to see how she was doing. That meant a lot to us. Shows how they really care.This place saved our vacation from Utah.
