These guys are amazing, they saved our dog's life. They called us back immediately, they transferred our dog in an oxygen kennel to have emergency surgery within a few hours of us reaching out. We can't thank them enough. On top of that they were so kind and gentle with Chloe.

They came out of the city on Mother's Day to upstate NY to transport my unstable Bulldog to Cornell University Vet Specialists in CT. They took the utmost care in her transport & I felt completely at ease with her in their care.

I am a medical director at a local veterinary clinic and when we had an oxygen dependent patient needing immediate transfer to an emergency center, we called ambuvet. From the first call, to their speed of arrival, professionalism and medical knowledge, to the follow up call to let me know my patient had transferred well, it was a great experience from start to finish. Highly recommend!

This is an amazing service. Don was quick to respond to my call when I needed to get my senior dog to the emergency clinic. He helped me get my doggie into his van, then waited with us for the rolling gurney, then he walked in with us to make sure we were taken care of. He truly went above and beyond. He was compassionate, understanding, and friendly to me and my pup. I cannot recommend this service enough.

Great guys - prompt return call, made time late on a Sunday night to come and get my mastiff who couldn't walk and bring him to the hospital. Clear communication, on time, and gentle and careful as could be with my giant critter, who needed to be stretchered out. nice people all the way around.

We live in Hoboken Nj and our dog chico needed to be transported 45 mims away on oxygen. Ambu Vet was amazing. Don was great he kept us informed along the way and even sent us a photo to let us know chico was ok. He then called the next day to get an update on Chico's status. He and the service is a God Sent to pet owners. If you have a crisis or emergency. I highly recommend.

They helped save our dog's life. Our dog was in critical condition and needed to be transferred to another facility for lifesaving care and surgery but was not stable enough for us to transport him ourselves. They came to NJ in the middle of the night and, without them, I don't know if saving our dog would have been possible. We are forever grateful.

AmbuVet is a wonderful service. My 100 pound dog was very sick & had to be taken to the emergency vet. The driver was very caring and kind to my dog and me. Donald even called a few days later to see how she was feeling. You made a very scary day a little better. Thank you from me & Layla.

These guys are a life-saver (literally)! My 130 pound dog injured his paw and we had no way to transport him to the local animal hospital. Donald, one of the vet techs, drove all the way out to Long Island with only a couple of hour notice and helped lift/safely transport Tigger - my pup/best friend. Thanks Donald and AmbuVet! You guys are amazing !

I can't thank Don enough for encouraging me to bring my little Mia home and letting her spend her last moments with me. She needed oxygen, she was frail and I was scared. But even in her final-final moments, Don was there. I am a very "particular" pet owner/rescuer and Don totally gets me and pet owners like me. Please rest assured your furbaby is in special hands and receives best tranport when you hire AmbuVet.

It was an early Sunday morning and I woke up to my cat crying in pain. There was no one who could help (my vet was not opened) and I got the name of Don from Ambuvet Pet Ambulance and he was there within the hour. He rescued my cat and brought him to the emergency hospital where my cat was unfortunately was diagnosed with blood clots in both of his legs and that's why he was crying in pain, and had to be put to sleep. But if it weren't for this angel, my cat would have been crying for hours before I could get help. He was a savior that day and I appreciate all he did.

Outstanding service and care for my pet. Very responsive and helped us out of a jam when our cat did not want to relocate out of our old home. Treated our kitty with care, kindness and respect. Will not hesitate to recommend to anyone in need of their services. Top-notch service and top-notch follow up. Very thankful and appreciative of their help.

So things did not go as well as I had hoped for a simple oral surgical procedure today on my 79 lb., 11.5 y/o Greyhound, Ozzie, who also has serious spinal and neck issues. He had an adverse reaction to the anesthesia and/or the reversing medication administered - leaving him unable to stand or walk on his own - for much longer than would be expected for normal recovery from a simple in office veterinary procedure.

Even though I had the rear lift up harness and full chest harness on him, the danger of trying to assist a large dog with spine issues who can't ambulate on his own, and is collapsing, is that you can cause more harm than good. The vet offered me 5 options to try to address his recovery. The best option was for me to try to get him home to the safety and comfort of his familiar surroundings.

So they called #ambuvet who sent two trained vet technicians to safely lift and carry him and transport both me and Ozzie home in their ambulance. This is the second time that I have had to use #ambuvet and they are 100% legit. They were timely, professional, skilled and compassionate. I can only highly recommend. https://www.ambuvet.com/index.html
