We went for our first visit today after a traumatic experience at our usual vet and were beyond impressed. Our cat recently got his annual vaccines at his usual vet and things didn’t go as well as usual. They were pretty rough on him and it ended up in everyone getting bit and him accidentally relieving himself on the exam table. To make things worse, most of our questions were brushed off and we felt like we got rushed out the door. It was time to look for a new vet.After many google/yelp searches, we found the Vet Set. I had already called a few places but wasn’t impressed and really wanted to make sure we got him the best care. I couldn’t believe they had so many five star reviews...it sounded too good to be true! When I called to schedule his appointment, I spoke to a woman on the phone who I believe was named Brianna or Bri. She was incredibly empathetic regarding our cat’s last visit and answered all of my questions without hesitation. She completely sold me on their office and ultimately is the reason we chose to come here first. Dr. Truitt’s bedside manner is impeccable as well!! My husband and I joked as we left that we wish she was practicing in human medicine because we would love to be her patients!! What a friendly doctor, which we aren’t really used to! At his usual doctor, we feel like a burden when we ask questions and sometimes get brushed off. As a pet owner, it’s great to leave with all questions answered. This is the first time we’ve left the vet feeling so great. She was incredibly patient with our scared cat and we didn’t feel like a bother. I asked all the questions I could think of and she answered every single one. We were never rushed, ignored, or dismissed. My husband couldn’t believe how patient Dr. Truitt was, and neither could I. We can’t wait to come back in a year for his next visit. read less

The whole family really appreciate your efforts to helping Leo make the best recovery possible.You put the human touch to a very difficult task.When Jeff and Helen recommended us to you it was like a gift that we will never forget as the best recommendation ever. read less

The vet was excellent with my cats! I only had pet carriers for my 2 older cats and the kitten escaped the cardboard box i had her in and knocked everything everywhere, Without a second thought the vet grabbed a pet carrier in perfect condition he had out the back, put her inside and told me i can have it free of charge! I mean WOW how amazingly kind! My (desexed) male adult cat is very skittish and usually doesnt let anyone touch him except me, I think because he was scared he pee'd all inside his pet carrier, when the vet was taking him out of the carrier pee went all over the place, I felt so bad but the vet was professional in dealing with this, quickly cleaning away all the pee and offering me a place to wash my hands and joking about sometimes getting a "Trifecta" Pee, Poo and vomit! hahaha Vet visits are usually something i fear because of the price and i often end up paying alot more than quoted! Not at Cat Lovers Frankston! The Quoted price was much cheaper than the other vets in the area and i didnt pay one cent more than i was quoted, Less actually! I could not fault this vet clinic in any way was a very pleasant experience and i will be a returning customer from now onwards! Cant recommend them enough! Thank you so much Cat Lovers Frankston! read less

The very local clinic at Beach Street in Frankston is where we used to go until we realised that all we were was a money maker for them.
We decided to try Cat Lovers vet and were amazed at the way the clinic was run.
Jim's priorities were focused on the health of your cat and not just the money.
Walking into the clinic instantly felt different from every other clinic we've been in.
It's true that the only thing that Jim does is cats and he does it not because it's a way to make money but because he is genuinely interested in the health of your cat.
A very real cat whisperer.
A friend had a cat who was unwell and we sent him to see Jim. He also used to see the vets at Beach Street. No surprise that he was shocked at the service received by Jim.
If you have a cat that requires attention, Cat Lovers should be the only place that should be on your mind.
Thanks Jim for your dedication to the sick cats of Melbourne. read lessDr. Jim Euclid is a very knowledgeable feline veterinarian who I absolutely trust with my cats.

He does a magnificent job in desexing my kittens, and my husband -who is a vet himself- is very impressed with his work, especially on female kittens. His incisions are tiny and the kittens are back up very quickly. I never had any wound infections either. Jim is always happy to share his knowledge and give advice. On top of that his fees are very!! reasonable. I can recommend him to any cat owner and breeder. read less

One of our last interactions with Catlovers was a few months ago when our 14 month old kitten was bitten by a tiger snake (we have 5 cats and had been to Catlovers a few times while living in the area, but have since moved house).In a panic we rushed him to the closest vet to our new place, who basically told us he had no chance and would have to be euthanised, but if we left him with them they would "try" to do their best and they would give us a call the following day! Our gut feelings told us to get the hell out of there and take him to Dr Jim (even though it was about an hour's drive away) and we did.Needless to say, Dr Jim saved his little life and after taking him back for a few fluid top-ups/shots (and round-the-clock love from us) he's bouncing around these days like nothing bad happened!We're so grateful to Dr Jim and his lovely staff and can't recommend him enough. Definitely worth the drive for their proper care and compassionate service. read less

There were times that were touch and go for the next year or so with his multiple health problems but with Jim's help Maggie's quality of life would improve and give us more time with him, and Maggie's love and affection continued right to the end. Maggie's welfare always came first and even when the terrible day came when Maggie was put to sleep we felt really looked after by Jim and team. Although our hearts are broken from his passing we feel he was in the best of hands and can't recommend Jim enough. Being a small clinic that only deals with cats it means your feline friend is less stressed and get's the best treatment and you get the best advice. We would definitely go back when we are ready to get another feline companion. We can't thank Jim and team enough. read less
