Really reasonable prices, and the vets provide excellent care. We are really impressed with Animal Doctors of South Tampa. The vets here have paid close attention to our animals and met all their needs, which wasn’t true for the first couple of vet clinics we visited when we moved to Tampa in 2022. We love Animal Doctors and they have become our vet of choice throughout Tampa Bay. Dr. Putnam helped us during a very difficult time, when our sweet Sandy was diagnosed with cancer. We will continue to use Animal Doctors for all our veterinary needs because of the compassion, care, and attention to detail their staff and vets consistently exhibit.

  • Melissa Tisnes

I have gone to Animal Doctors of South Tampa since I moved to Tampa. All of the staff is efficient, empathetic, and kind. They show genuine concern and are always prompt to cater to your pets needs. I fully trust Dr. Putnam and Dr. Howes with the care of my fur-babies, as they have both demonstrated incredible knowledge and love for their profession in every interaction. Thank you Dr. Howes and Destiny for taking care of Honey’s babies when they were born and for continuing to care for them whenever we visit you. I highly recommend Animal Doctors of South Tampa to anyone needing a vet practice you can trust in the Tampa Bay region.

  • Mike Mirabella

I cannot speak highly enough about the care and professionalism I received at Animal Doctors of South Tampa. I met with Dr. Putnam last year (2022) in reference to our Bernese Mountain Dog and our desire to have her spayed & chipped. Dr. Putnam suggested we wait until our puppy has at least her first heat then we could proceed. Fast forward to 12/1/23 and the procedures were successful. Our Sophia is healing rapidly and back to her normal, loving self. Thank you Dr Putnam for your expert advice and a successful procedure. I recommend Animal Doctors of South Tampa for any of your pets needs, they really care!

  • Jaimee Bolden

So far everyone has been very pleasant. They seemed to have new front desk ladies who are very pleasant. The ones before were so rude. The vets are very through in explaining things and there is no pressure on things that are not medically necessary. I got my dog on heart worm prevention and didn’t know there was a vaccine available which was truly the best option for my babes.they are kind and my chihuahua doesn’t give them a hard time so I know he is handled with care. We go here for nail trims and vaccines and have yet to have a bad experience. Trusting your vets is so important.

  • Kendry Liranza

These people saved my dog from going blind! I cannot tell you how grateful I am for Animal Doctors. I came in with my 6-month-old English Bulldog freaking out as both of his eyes had a blueish tint. Lots of discharge and swollen to the point he could barely see. I was afraid that he was losing his eyesight. AD being the professionals that they are they remained calmed and assured me things would be okay. Gave me the proper meds and sent me on my way. The consultation was quick and 3 days later hes eyes are perfectly clear. THANK YOU!

  • Jeannie Ketsdever Laing

So far I’ve had my dog seen by Dr. Howes and Dr. Putnam and they are both straightforward, kind and knowledgeable. I’ve never once felt like I was being pressured into doing any tests, labs, bloodwork, etc. I once had a difficult time trying to fill a medication and Dr. Howes was very helpful in the process. The same dog was last seen by Dr. Putnam a few days ago to help with palliative care and she’s already doing so much better with the medication she prescribed. The vet techs that worked with them were great, too.

  • Denise Meech

Animal Doctors of South Tampa, is a great place to take your pet. The receptionists are friendly and patient with people that seem confused. There was an incident while I was there, and the girls handled it well. The staff also are great. They do a great job handling the pets. I convinced my friend to bring her cat there to have his nails clipped, and they did a great job. All I have is praise for them! My dog hates to get up in the morning!

  • Rikki Radkay

The Animal Doctors of South Tampa has been such a breathe of fresh air with a happy & helpful team from end to end. Dr. Putnam really breaks everything down to be understandable and works within your budget to do to help make being a new pet parent or old pet parent manageable & healthy. I am so thankful for the professionalism & knowledge of the Animal Doctors of South Tampa and always so thankful to have my nerves put at ease.

  • Daniel Meyer

We have been taking our dog to Animal Doctors of South Tampa for years and they always do a great job. Recently we adopted a senior rescue who started having major issues. I brought her into Animal Doctors and they worked with us nonstop to figure out what was wrong with our dog and to get her healthy again. We cannot thank Animal doctors enough for their service, knowledge and care for the animals they treat.

  • Daniel Kedem

The Doctors at this clinic are unmatched by any other practice I’ve visited, and I’ve been to many in the Hillsborough County area. The convince of being able to go without an appointment vs the alternative of being gouged at blue pearl or any other emergency clinic is unparalleled. Combined with fantastic service, a polite staff, and top notch quality medical services makes this my #1 Vet hands down.

  • Prince Tyrese

My experience is always a good one @Animal Doctors of South Tampa, as soon as I walk in I feel welcomed. I drive from North Tampa but the drive is worth while because I know I am going to be treated with empathy toward my sick pet. The concern demonstrated by the front desk personnel for my pet’s sickness is what makes me return for all my pet needs. They are all very nice and professional people!

  • Jen Cop

Animal Doctors is a wonderful place to take your pet. I have seen many of the doctors in this practice. The doctors and staff are caring, patient, and knowledgeable. Dr. Putnam especially helped my family and I through a tough time. She is so genuine and thoughtful. Their prices are also much lower than the other vets in the area. I won’t take my pet anywhere else.

  • Christina Markham

I’m from MA. In town for a family visit. Purchased a puppy and used this Vet at the suggestion of family and friends. The service was excellent. From the initial call, the intake, triage and exam. There was just straight forward, high quality pet care. No upselling or trying to talk me into unnecessary services. Highly recommend.

  • Katie Fleetwood-Ames

This is a walk-in style facility that I’m very grateful for as it has become increasingly difficult to be seen by a traditional veterinary office within 24-48 hours of calling for a sick appointment. We were seen quickly and the staff was so friendly and caring to my pup, Stella. Her sniffles, coughs and sneezes are clearing up!

  • Gage McAfee

I took my new kitten to get neutered, and I’m extremely impressed with the quality of care and love they gave Odin. He’s literally already purring and playing like normal as soon as he got home. All the staff were super friendly, and shoutout to Dr. Putnam. She’s the GOAT

  • Almarys Lopez Rosas

I trust this clinic since 2020 when I arrived to Tampa, will not change it for another one. I prefer this clinic because you dont have to make an appointment to be attended. You go any time before 3:30pm, and thats peaceful knowing that you don’t have to rush.

  • Stephanie Broderick

My dog is very scared of being in public and the Animal Docs of South Tampa handled him so gently and treated us very well. I was able to ask all the questions without being rushed out of the room. Clean room/waiting area and friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Awesome experience- from the front desk attendant to the visit with the veterinarian - the staff is so pleasant and caring. Thank you for offering a walk-in option. Oh and we received a follow-up call the next day to check-in on our kitty. THANK YOU!!!

The doctor and technicians have always been so helpful with Moose, my cat. I come here for my cat’s annual visit as well as anything else I might need. My kitty was a little sick this week and the cost of treatment was really affordable.

Dr. Howes and the vet tech were awesome with my two dogs and cat during their annuals. I’ve been bringing my pets here for 8 years and have seen many different vets and techs, but they are all so awesome, knowledgeable and caring.

First impression, as I walked in with my dog, was the positive vibe I felt from the staff, everyone nice and courteous. Dr Kendall and tech Sean cared for my dog, wonderful and caring people! I highly recommend AD of South Tampa!

  • Jean Jordan

I got my beautiful puppy at Animal Doctors of South Tampa. The entire staff is the Best! I live in Sarasota and took Macie back to get her shot, nails clipped and to see all her “People “. Would highly recommend this office.

  • E B

South Tampa Animal Hospital is the only place we will take our pup while in Tampa. They genuinely care about Max’s health. I love the fact that they get on the floor for his exams instead of putting him up on a cold table.

  • Heather Drake

My husband was a vet tech for five years and I was a pet stylist for six years. Believe me when I say this is the best veterinary clinic either of us have ever seen. They are kind, knowledgeable, and affordable.

Great Doctors and staff; you don't need to make any appointments. Fair pricing: they do not take advantage of their customers—a five-star review.
