Crossing Animal Clinic - Austin, Texas

Emily Backus

We were referred by a Great Pyrenees rescue/trainer years ago, as our fur baby gets a little nervous going to the vet. Crossing Animal Clinic was so great with our German Shepherd mix and made vet trips for us so much more manageable. The staff understand aggressive breeds and we never felt the stigma of having brought one there. Jasmine, in particular, was a HUGE asset to us during an international military move. Her research helped saved us thousands of dollars and we were able to get all of our rabies tests and health certificates timely. She helped make a stressful move a lot easier by helping us get our dog mentally prepared and by communicating every step of the process. Overall, we loved going here and really can’t recommend them enough!

Crossing Animal Clinic is THE BEST vet clinic in Austin. We have been to many, but have never gotten the quality of care we've gotten at Crossing. The ENTIRE staff is top notch and so very caring. I can't sing their praises enough! They have always been there for our babies and have been so patient and sweet towards our pups who are not good patients (at all). Dr. Howell is amazing! She is so knowledgeable and patient-centered. She is thorough and a highly skilled veterinarian. When she makes recommendations for care, she looks at our pets as if they were her own and only suggests what is necessary. That is so unique in the animal health care field, which is increasingly profit-centered. I am so grateful our pets have high quality care from an exceptional, caring, and knowledgeable staff. The fact that this clinic has maintained the same staff for years speaks volumes. I only have great things to say about Crossing. Same with my friends who take their pets here, too. I trust them completely with our babies.

Dr. Howell and all of the staff have been absolutely wonderful helping us care for our dog. He was a special case who had surgeries performed by a different vet for a condition that didn’t exist. We eventually determined he had an inoperable tumor. They helped us through each stage of palliative care up to his final breath. You could not expect to find a more compassionate and understanding team.

Thank you for checking our unknown kitty visitor for a microchip. We were able to reunite him with his family within a few hours.

I had my last $1000 quote from VCA and decided to try these ladies out. From the first phone call to finish I had a superb experience with this clinic. I dropped off my small Maltese to be fixed and noticed the neat, clean small clinic setup. A young confident small team of staff. They were fast and efficient and very realistic. They did not recommend a long list of expensive treatments just what my dog actually needed to be healthy. For once, it’s nice to have a business actually put animals first before a new Bentley. It’s worth it to drive a distance for their service.

We had to put our beloved dog Hime down earlier this year and although it was a difficult experience the team here softened the difficult blow in every way imaginable

They were also great vets to her in life and when we’re ready for our next pet we will be here!

Having been very involved in rescue for more than 15 years, I have worked with a LOT of vet clinics, both in Austin and around the state.

Crossing, Dr Howell and her staff are by far the very best. They listen, pricing is reasonable, and they don't push unnecessary services.

They are super supportive of rescues, providing excellent care to dogs who are often in poor health.

They always take the time to answer any questions I may have, even by phone.

Bedside manner could not be better. I never feel pushed into anything or rushed.

This is the most caring, compassionate, supportive and trustworthy vet staff in or around Austin. I have never had a poor experience here. They take the best care of me and my 7 giant dogs.

They are super nice. Always gentle with my cat butt and they get the job done! 🙂 and the price is so reasonable.
