YOUR TRUSTED CHOICE FOR CARE
At Barks + Bliss, we know the love you share with your pet is deeply personal. That is why we built a new kind of veterinary care, one that treats your companion like family and supports their total wellness, from emotional health to nutrition and preventive care.
We go beyond medicine to truly understand your bond, empower you with knowledge, and deliver care that is thoughtful, complete, and always evolving. Because when love is on the line, you deserve nothing less.

HANDLED WITH CARE
My husband & I love Barks + Bliss. From the time you arrive until their tails wag goodbye all of the staff make our fur babies feel they are the most special pups on the planet. They handle our babies with confidence and care. I recommend this Clinic to anyone looking for A+ Vet to care for loved fur babies.
I drive from close to Waco to come to Barks and Bliss. I can honestly say that this is the best veterinary office we have ever been to. Not only are they compassionate and kind, the staff here always goes above and beyond when taking care of my boys. They do a great job at communicating AND you and your pet will also have whatever time you need dedicated to you. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to thank Dr. Brown, Dr. Reeve and the staff at Barks and Bliss enough for the care and attention they give our pets, and the kindness and understanding they give to us humans.
This place rocks! They’ve got a beautiful and modern facility and awesome staff to match. All my questions were answered before I could even ask! They explained everything they were doing with my dog and why they thought it was the right move, so didn’t just leave with a healthier dog, I left better equipped to keep her that way. To me that is invaluable. I don’t think I’ll be taking my pup anywhere else from now on.
What I liked most about the visit what their unending patience to allow my fur-baby to warm up to them in a time and space that was comfortable for my beloved pet. The next item I found remarkable was the availability and breadth of services for animal care, to include Oncology and Sonograms
I love the way they treat our pets here. We’ve got both cats and dogs and each time, the staff speaks so sweetly to our pets, compliments them, and handles them with care. They explain things clearly and go over our options (including pricing). I appreciate that we pay the bill in the exam room so we don’t have to manage our pets out in the lobby while paying (a hassle for us at other veterinary offices). Today our dog got grumbly during the abdominal portion of the exam and they used their stress-free training to evaluate his mood and figure out how he was feeling and helped him to be calmer and happier during the exam. We trust them with our pets, and that’s a really great feeling to have.
Love, love, love this place! They took excellent care of my puppy (and me!) when he was ill. They called twice to check on him after he was home. I was consistently updated and nothing was done to him that they didn’t go over with me first. Very professional! I wish I had found them sooner!
They have been taking care of our pup Shiloh from when they first opened. The care he received there was exceptional. Staff were always kind to us and took the time to explain everything that was going on. When he would board, they would make sure to email us pictures every day to show my daughter all the fun he was having. When we finally had to put him down, you could feel the love for him in the building from the staff. You could tell how they all truly cared for our dog. I simply cannot recommend this vet enough. Thank you all for everything.
I have been coming here with my animals for a little while now, and this is by far the best vet clinic I have ever been to. I cannot thank the vets and staff here enough. I had to take my boy Sawyer to the emergency vet over the weekend, and x-rays showed he had a blockage in his small intestine. Barks + Bliss called me first thing Monday morning to get him in and start a treatment plan right away. They were very compassionate and honest, and treated Sawyer like one of their own. There aren’t words to describe how thankful I am for the care they provided to my sweet boy. I cannot recommend this vet enough, all the staff are top-notch.
I was so impressed by this veterinary clinic today! They have a low stress cat exam/waiting area that my cats and I were immediately shown to. The staff was thorough, knowledgeable, and very patient with my fur babies. I left with a treatment plan and helpful resources for nutrition. I have 5 pets and have been to many different clinics over the years. Barks + Bliss is by far the best vet clinic I’ve visited. The fact that they’re so reasonably priced is honestly just an added bonus. Grateful to have been recommended here!
