Veterinary Care
Dr. Jyl's Vet Connection provides comprehensive veterinary care for dogs, cats, farm animals, and exotic pets. Our services include routine checkups, vaccinations, diagnostics, and treatment for acute and chronic conditions. We emphasize preventive care and early intervention to maintain pet health. Our team tailors treatment plans to each animal's unique needs, ensuring optimal outcomes through personalized attention and advanced medical techniques.
Mobile Vet Services
Our mobile veterinary service brings expert care directly to your home for added convenience. We offer consultations, treatments, and follow-up care for pets unable to visit our clinic. Mobile services include pain management, euthanasia, and wellness exams. This option reduces stress for pets and accommodates owners with limited mobility, ensuring high-quality care in a familiar environment while maintaining rigorous medical standards.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture treatments address pain, inflammation, and chronic conditions in pets using traditional Chinese medicine techniques. We insert fine needles at specific points to stimulate healing and improve mobility. This therapy benefits animals with arthritis, neurological issues, or post-surgical recovery. Our certified practitioners combine acupuncture with conventional treatments to enhance overall wellness, providing a holistic approach to pain management without reliance on medication.
Cancer Therapy
We offer specialized cancer treatments including hyperthermia, mistletoe therapy, and ozone therapy to target tumors and support immune function. Our protocols aim to prolong survival times while maintaining quality of life. Treatments are tailored to each pet's condition, combining holistic and conventional methods. We provide compassionate guidance to owners, ensuring informed decisions about treatment options, palliative care, and managing side effects for pets with cancer.
Dental Cleanings
We provide anesthetic-free and full anesthetic dental cleanings to prevent periodontal disease and systemic infections. Non-anesthetic options suit low-risk patients, while comprehensive procedures include extractions and x-rays under anesthesia. Our technicians remove plaque, polish teeth, and educate owners on home care. Regular dental maintenance prevents organ damage from bacterial spread, ensuring pets maintain healthy teeth and gums throughout their lives.

Been taking my animals to Dr. Jyl for 18 years. Even now, as I live 100 miles away. I still make the drive. I've gone to several other veterinarians throughout Placer, Nevada, and Sacramento Counties for emergencies or convenience but never seemed to get the care or knowledge of diagnosis that I would get from Dr. Jyl. She truly is the best Vet and will do/try anything to save, cure, heal or maintain your animals life.

She believes in Wellness but as a whole. Her practicing philosophy is across the spectrum of both Western and Eastern medicine. I trust no one else with my furry children. I highly recommend you take your pets to her.

This is the best vet we've ever taken our dog to see. Our dog is getting older and struggling with osteoarthritis. The other vets we've taken her to have offered little in the way of care and treatment. However, Dr. Jill has offered a variety of options to help get her mobile and pain free again. She and the staff are friendly, knowledgeable and genuinely care about their patients. We're so happy we've found a place that we can trust and, our dog leaves happier and more comfortable after each appointment.

Dr Rubin uses western and Eastern medicine to treat animals. She also does other approaches -- acupuncture, chiropractic, and other methods. My pets both have back problems and love the treatment to feel better.

The one star is for some of Dr. Jyl's staff. Dr. Jyl has a false reputation as being a caring vet. That might be, but it's all about money. She over charges and sneaks things on your bill such as a nail trim for $26.00 that I did not ask for. On my dogs last visit I told the intake tech that I did NOT want my dogs nails cut. They did it anyway and charged me. This is the only vet I know of that charges $8.00 for a written prescription. If you have more than 1 script, well you are charged another $8.00. I've never written a review. Good or bad. But don't be fooled by Dr. Jyl. She's a Dr. Jekyll & Hyde.

I could write a novel. Dr Jyl saved my baby. My cat Lana has some mental issue where she was just destroying everything. I tried absolutely everything in the book and couldn't get her under control. My landlord was going to kick me out because of how destructive she was but I love her like a child. Dr Jyl helped us and I got to keep my place and Lana is healthy and happy as ever. I can't express enough how much I appreciate the empathy and compassion dr Jyl and her staff expressed to me in such h a difficult stressful time. I would recommend them 1000 times over.

THE BEST VET and staff! Every single decision she makes in the interest of my animals. Nothing is automatic even vaccines. She will test your pet for rabies antibodies so if they still have immunity since the last booster, you can be exempt. We switched after my kitty got cancer and I felt she needed all the help she could get. They offer acupuncture, laser therapy, Reiki and other more alternative therapies.

I drive 1.5 hours round trip to see her even though a few of my animals totally hate the car. But I get them acupuncture every visit and the ride home is very chill. My pets are sleek, vibrant, lively animals again under her guidance and we are just so grateful. Especially our old-timers! They deserve to be pain free, comfortable and as healthy as possible.
