And a word from our clients…

“Dr. Amanda is a wealth of knowledge and resources for senior pets and their owners. She treats our beloved senior cat, Fonzie, with a gentle hand, dignity and compassionate kindness. I’m so thankful our vet recommended her!” ~Laura and Fonzie

“Dr. Amanda has been such a blessing in the hardest time of my life. My soul cat is dying of cancer. Dr. Amanda has been a lifeline support for both me and him. He feels so much better after his sessions and Dr. Amanda is a wealth of knowledge for both his condition and my emotions. She creates a caring, loving, comforting space and I don’t know what we would’ve done without her and her knowledge of senior pets. Highly highly recommend. She changed our lives and we are so grateful.” ~Heather Tapp DC

“My pup Dixon was suddenly unable to move his hind legs and was diagnosed with IVDD. At 12 years old, surgery was expensive and not guaranteed to help, so we opted for a non-surgical treatment route. Our primary veterinarian recommended Floyds Tale to try electroacupuncture. I’m incredibly thankful for Dr. Amanda, who is not only friendly and easy to work with but also very responsive. She came out to our home to assess Dixon the day after I submitted the appointment request form.  After just a few treatments, Dixon went from being completely unable to walk on his own to walking independently. Within a few months, he made an amazing recovery and is now back to his puppy-like self!” ~Tasha and Dixon

“My dog Jake is an 11-year-old Pitbull with end stage arthritis. He has had two knee surgeries and what they consider a tennis elbow. The complications come in because he ended up with liver disease from long-term use of NSAIDs, and he has an IBD diagnosed. So, Western medicine can only do so much to help him. I was seeking other alternatives to help him out such as chiropractic acupuncture laser herbs and supplements. I brought my dog to his veterinarian to discuss my options, but unfortunately my vet did not have a lot of experience with holistic options and nor did he have time to sit and have a long discussion about options. That, to me, is frustrating. At this point, I was willing to pay extra money for a double appointment so that I can have some input ,but that option was not available for me.

I have been following the senior vet for several years and found her informational videos so helpful and then to find out that she does personal one-on-one consults was an absolute miracle for me.

It is exactly what I was looking for! I booked the session and she listened to everything I had to say about my dogs past health conditions, and how he is at present. She gave me a lot of insightful information on acupuncture, chiropractic, laser, supplements, and we even discussed end of life decisions, I feel so grateful and so full of knowledge now since our consult. All the unanswered questions are now answered I had written a list. We went through every single item and she calmly explained everything in layman's terms. Not only did she discuss everything with me, but she did a follow-up email to remind me of the different options she gave me and the supplements that I should check into. She explained the dosage of the supplements and the time span between each one on how to dispense. If you love your pet like I love mine and it is a senior, trust me when I tell you this was an amazing relaxing informative way to go. You can tell that Dr Amanda cares about your pet, and gives wonderful advice on things that I never thought of before but makes sense now.

Sometimes we just lose hope and I feel renewed and hopefully again that Jake will have better more pain-free palliative care. Thank you Dr. Amanda!” ~Robin

“Dr. Steffen has formed a truly special bond with our 12.5-year-old German Shepherd, Mamba — a relationship that is nothing short of precious. Words can’t fully express how grateful we are for her compassion, wisdom, and unwavering care.

She hasn’t just treated Mamba — she’s loved her, understood her, and walked alongside us during these meaningful senior years. The connection she’s built with Mamba goes beyond veterinary care; it’s a reflection of deep empathy and genuine dedication.

Thanks to Dr. Steffen, Mamba has been able to enjoy her golden years with comfort and joy — a gift that has brought so much happiness and peace to our entire family.

We are forever thankful. Dr. Steffen is not only exceptionally skilled and knowledgeable, but also incredibly kind, professional, and personable. She is truly one of a kind.” ~Nicole, Jacob and Mamba

“My little girl started seeing Dr. Steffen for severe anxiety.  While normally timid and unsure of strangers she was immediately comfortable with her.  Her energy and patience brought her comfort (the treats helped too).  Since the first acupuncture treatment she hasn’t had a full anxiety meltdown.  It’s been amazing to watch her progress as we have continued treatments.  She is slowly navigating situations with more confidence.  She enjoys the treatments and is so relaxed.  From her voice and energy to the  room and space my girl feels safe.  Dr. Steffen is thorough and complete in her evaluations and discussions.  It was refreshing to have a doctor that used was up to date on traditional western medicine but that is educated and knowledgeable on eastern and homeopathic medicine too.  Dr. Steffen listens to the owners and the pets.  With her guidance we have found a path that is helping my girl to find the mental peace I crave for her.  We love her.” ~Amber and Buffy
