Animal Doctors of South Tampa

Animal Doctors of South Tampa will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Dr. Howes cared for our pitbull, Nova, for years and treated her skin issues with such dedication, patience, and genuine love. When we later learned Nova had cancer, Dr. Howes and Dr. Dre were nothing short of extraordinary- so compassionate, kind, and supportive during the hardest moments. They never made us feel rushed, never minimized our fears, and always treated Nova like she was their own. The entire staff is incredible- warm, attentive, and deeply caring. Every visit reminded us that Nova was truly loved and in the best hands possible. Thank you for giving our girl such a good life, for the care you provided through every chapter, and for the compassion you showed our family when it mattered most. We are endlessly grateful.

My fur baby was quite ill, my original vet couldn't see her but recommended Animal Hospital. Went right away and she was seen, had to have surgery and the vet and staff kept me informed about procedure and cost. Surgery went well. Staff very nice and thankful for their fast service and care. Now I take my fur baby there. Highly recommend Animal Doctors of South Tampa.

Dr Dre, Dr Putnam, all the vet techs and front desk have been excellent with providing care for my cats. For my sensitive cats I prefer to wait with them in my car and always stay with them throughout the visit

From the moment you walk in, the entire team—from the front desk staff to the techs and veterinarians—makes you feel welcomed and cared for. Everyone is incredibly friendly, patient, and compassionate, and you can tell they genuinely love what they do. They always take the time to explain everything clearly, answer all my questions, and make sure my dog is comfortable. The level of service and attention to detail is wonderful. The clinic is clean, organized, and well-run. You never feel rushed, and they truly treat your pet like family. I’m grateful to have such an amazing veterinary team in South Tampa. Highly recommend Animal Doctors of South Tampa to anyone looking for exceptional care and genuinely kind people!

Finding Dr. Andrea and the Animal Doctors of South Tampa was the best decision of my life. She saved my baby girl’s life, and I will be forever grateful. My cat suddenly got very sick and other vets told us there was almost nothing left to do, one even mentioned euthanasia. We were devastated. After hours of searching for a clinic that could help us as a final hope, I found Animal Doctors of South Tampa, and it ended up being the greatest stroke of luck. Dr. Andrea was the only one who stepped in and was willing to help. She was honest and transparent from the very beginning about the seriousness of my cat’s condition, yet she also gave us hope and a chance when no one else would. Hailey needed major surgery to remove her left kidney, and even though it wasn’t something Dr. Andrea specializes in every day, she was brave enough to try it for us. We trusted her, and I am SO grateful we did. The surgery was a complete success, and now just a bit over a week later, Hailey is healthy, back to her normal self, and already playing around the house! It truly feels like a miracle, and it’s all thanks to Dr. Andrea and the amazing team here. Dr. Andrea is one of the most caring, attentive, and dedicated veterinarians I have ever met. She is incredibly smart and will do everything in her power to help your pet. She took the time to explain everything clearly to us, even drawing out so we fully understood Hailey’s situation. She is one of a kind and genuinely cares about her patients. The clinic as a whole deserves recognition as well. Their prices are extremely fair, far more affordable than other hospitals we visited, and yet the care we received here was by far the best. They were transparent, supportive, and worked with us to make sure Hailey got everything she needed. If you’re looking for a vet who is compassionate, skilled, and will fight for your pet, this is the place. Thank you, Dr. Andrea and Animal Doctors of South Tampa, for saving my baby girl’s life. I will forever be grateful ❤️🐾
