“I can’t say enough good things about this veterinary clinic. From the moment you walk in, the staff are warm, friendly, and welcoming. They take the time to get to know you and your pet, and you can tell right away that they are true animal lovers. The entire team is extremely knowledgeable and always explains things clearly, answering every question with patience and care. What stands out most is how much they genuinely care about the animals—they treat every pet as if it were their own. It’s such a comfort knowing that my pet is in such capable and compassionate hands. I always leave with peace of mind and confidence in the care we receive. I highly recommend this clinic to any pet owner looking for a place where both you and your furry family member will be treated with kindness, respect, and expertise.”

This vet is so amazing. I can't say enough good things. The care they provide to your pets is everything you hope for. They're compassionate with people which is so rare these days -everything is so money driven.
My pup got a UTI after her spay, this is pretty common. But I moved away. All the vets here in NorthBay were asking ridiculous amounts of money upfront mind you to even see my girl. Uti's can become fatal! I tried everything i could, money is tight as we just moved and my partner has no job yet.
Gillies grove literally went out of their way to look after us. I was ready to drive the 6 hours roubd trip to Arnprior to skip all these added things the vets wanted here and get her proper care. I didn't even have to. They sent medication here to our pharmacy at no extra cost.
The world is lacking compassion, be the person who goes that extra mile to help others. Money comes and goes but great care and great Impressions stick.
This vet should be raved about. Thank you and your team so much for everything. I'll forever recommend you.

Reception was smooth. Next professional (sorry can’t recall name) was open to questions esp my Qs on pet insurance, and appropriate calorie intake. Dr Mel was awesome. Obviously loves her job and animals. Great first visit for our new pup

Highly recommend Gillies Grove!
Everyone we've met there has been incredibly understanding of all the puppy chaos, and you can tell they genuinely love seeing pets come through the doors. Dr. Mel is so quick with the meds/treats combo that even my picky pup Charlie barely noticed what was happening.
It truly feels like bringing your dog to visit extended family. 💕

We are incredibly grateful to the team at Gillies Grove Animal Hospital for the exceptional care they gave to our beloved senior dog, Bruce. From the very beginning, they treated Bruce with kindness, patience, and respect, always ensuring he was comfortable and that we felt supported throughout every step of his health journey.

As Bruce's health declined, their compassion never wavered. They helped us navigate difficult decisions with honesty and empathy, and when the time came to say goodbye, they made it as peaceful and gentle as possible. The kisses in the jar were so sweet.

Thank you to everyone at Gillies Grove for not just being excellent veterinarians, but for being truly caring people. Bruce meant the world to us, and we couldn’t have asked for a better team to help us care for him in his final chapter.

I'm currently visiting Pembroke with my environmentally allergic Golden-doodle whose allergies haven't been bad this season, but flared up the minute we made it to the outdoors. I cannot thank everyone at Gillies Grove Animal Hospital for figuring out a way for Cooper to be seen and receive his Cytopoint injection. Katie at the front was absolutely incredible and problem solved quickly to get him in and the technician who gave him his shot was equally amazing. I am forever indebted to the clinic for getting him in so quickly and turning our holiday around.

If I could give them 100 stars I would!!
Highly recommend

Very disappointed today. My Bella was bringing up and had diarrhea really bad. The receptionist didnt seem to care my baby was that sick. Was told no opening go to Ottawa. Dr Mel is a fantastic doctor who brought Bella into this world and the receptionist would not even let me speak to her. My dog is my whole world and she is a service dog who has helped me though alot. I cant help her cause this uncaring receptionist decided she could go to emergency in Ottawa. What would have happened half way to Ottawa if she got worse?She actually did bring up in our vehicle. Very disappointed in this person unwilling and very uncaring.
