I've been using Arapahoe Animal Hospital for several years, taking both my cat and dog here, and really trust Dr. Hayes & Dr. Myers. Their doggie daycare has been great, too. End of life care for our cat was handled with the utmost care and respect.

Caring, responsive, communicative staff, answered all my questions, and treated my dog and concerned-kid with respect and kindness. Affordable, too!

My dog absolutely loves this day care! She doesn't normally like to go places without me, but when one of the doggy day care counselors comes to get her, she runs off happily. Everyone loves her too, which really makes me feel more at ease leaving her here.

Great experience! The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. They got my dog in quickly and explained all treatment options. They were also very thorough with any questions I had. The staff showed great care and treated my aussie wonderfully. Thank you Dr. Cerda and staff! Came in on a recommendation and will recommend this veterinarian to anyone who asks!

Doctors and staff are always wonderful. They make me feel 100% confident in leaving my Blue Heeler in their care. Naturally, she is not a fan of other people much less the vet, and the staff goes above and beyond to make her feel confident and comfortable too. Lots of tricks and treats. Thank you, Arapahoe Animal Hospital.

I flew from Pennsylvania to Utah to pick my new puppy and road trip back home with it. Unfortunately along the way my puppy came into contact with the Parvovirus and became symptomatic shortly after we arrived in Boulder, CO. Luckily I noticed the signs right away and called Arapahoe Animal Hospital first thing in the morning and they were able to get me in right away for an 8:30am appointment. Dr. Robert Cerda and vet tech Cassie confirmed that it was indeed Parvo were very honest and thorough in their explanation to me and recommendation on what was best for my puppy and what would give him the best chance of survival. Dr. Cerda recommended I take him to a hospital with 24/7 care in order to give him the best chance to survive and I am so grateful for his recommendation because that's just what I did and my puppy survived!

We just made it back to Pennsylvania a couple days ago and Strider is doing great and in recovery. Thank you so much to Dr. Cerda and Cassie and the rest of the staff that helped tend to Strider the day he came in. Wonderful place.
