Joanna and her team are amazing. They always take really good care of our Nalu girl. The Perry family is very thankful to have such a good option for vet care.

This is me and my dog’s second home. Could not be a single dog parent without Alii and its super friendly staff. My dog inoki almost pees herself from excitement whenever we turn into the parking lot!

Upon her exam, he confirmed that she had an allergic reaction and may be constipated. He gave me options for medicines that they can prescribe as well as an after-visit plan for when I take her home.
He is new to Ali'i and he is very thorough!! On the phone, he took the time to talk to me about the various options we had for care. My poor cat was suffering from multiple ailments at once, so he made sure to thoroughly address them with me one-by-one. He answered my questions and gave me lots of options. Through this conversation, we were able to develop a care plan for her so that she can get back to health.
Mahalo Dr. Gupta!! I am so glad that you are at Ali'i and that you took the time to come up with options to find balance and prioritize care and cost. Read Less

Read MoreMy first mistake Sunday morning was not following through with my plan to corral all three of my cats into the bathroom for breakfast before heading out to grab Starbucks for the me and the hubby. My second mistake was pulling out the cat carriers upon my return back home with Starbucks and having our cats witness what they consider "death traps" and dispersing almost immediately as soon as they finished their breakfast. By 7:20am, I had to bring out the food jar and treats and trick my two boys into their carriers. By 7:30am, I had to ask my husband for help with getting our girl cat because she had hid under the couch, and it was not until the couch was lifted and she tried to scurry through the back that I scruffed her and put her in her carrier. By 7:40am, as I am about ready to pack the kitties in the car to go to the vet, my husband has the nerve to ask if he has time to shower and I tell him that if he is not out of the house by 7:50am, I am leaving him behind. By 7:55am, we are neatly parked in front of Ali'i Animal Hospital & Resort and call to check-in.
I was a little nervous even though this was just a visit to establish new veterinary care because my cats have only ever been to Kailua Animal Clinic for the entirety of their 7-8 years of life. But the moment that the veterinary technician came out for an initial assessment, any anxiety that I had immediately dissipated. The vet tech was not only personable but went over general health questions related to my cats. I was actually quite surprised that she had even asked about my two boys' recurring issues with UTIs and vomiting and how they were doing now. It was a minor detail but showed that the veterinarian and affiliated staff took the time to go over our medical records and follow-up. Once the initial assessment was done, I helped the vet tech bring in our cats to the lobby and went back to the car to wait. My husband and I waited about thirty minutes, possibly shorter, before Dr. Maureen Rankin came outside to talk to us about our cats, which was another nice surprise since I just assumed Dr. Rankin would give us a call. Like the vet tech who assisted us (whose name I unfortunately cannot recall), Dr. Rankin herself was very personable and you could tell from the way she talked to us that she was passionate about her job. She not only commented on how cute our cats were but were happy to tell us that based on their ages and medical histories, all three cats were healthy, which is always a relief to hear. Dr. Rankin again checked with us to make sure that we did not have any questions or concerns that we wanted to discuss and then told us that our cats would be brought our shortly before heading back in. After a few minutes, our three cats were carried out in their carriers by a staff member including our initial vet tech, another vet tech (?), and Dera, one of their concierge staff who had assisted me with scheduling the appointment and getting set-up as clients.
I did not expect to meet Dera in person just because I can only imagine how busy the staff are at the Kailua location (I know their Kaka'ako location can get quite busy as well) but it was nice to put a face to a name because from the very get-go when she called to follow-up on scheduling an initial appointment, Dera was not only patient with me as I asked questions and wanted to make sure I covered all my bases, but was also forthcoming about information related to appointments, costs, etc. If there was an award for best concierge/front desk staff member, Dera would certainly win it on all accounts because she is just that phenomenal and truly the real MVP of the Ali'i Animal Hospital Kailua location.
Overall, if you are looking for a good veterinary practice on the Windward side, I would highly recommend Ali'i Animal Hospital. As Ali'i Animal Hospital expands their business, it is easy to see why they have been so successful over the years because the customer service and the quality of services provided by their veterinarians, veterinary technicians, and concierge staff is outstanding. With each different interaction I had with the Ali'i Animal Hospital staff, I could tell just how much each of them cared about what they did and the business they were representing. Even my cats who are usually panicked beyond belief whenever we have to visit the vet were surprisingly calm on the way home. The surprise cherry on top? The technicians had even clipped my cats' nails before returning our cats to us and did not charge us a cent. It is always the little details that truly make a difference for clients and their pets and I am excited to see what the future holds for Ali'i Animal Hospital. Read Less

From Dr Cook, to all the other doctors, from Mia to all the other vet techs, and from Kea to all the other receptionists, me and my fur babies will be forever indebted to you guys for all the wonderful care and how you guys go above and beyond for all of them!! I had a puppy that was born who was not doing very well at all and Bonnie worked on her for 2 hours and didn't give up!!! That little baby ended up surviving and is living her best life right now. Dr Cook suggested to me to put insurance on my newborn puppies just in case something happened to them. I listened to her because I trust her implicitly. Once again, she turned out to be right because I had a puppy who needed a lot of medical attention and her bill would've been well over $15k, but thanks to Dr Cook's suggestion, I only had to pay about $1000 out of my own pocket. Ali'i isn't there for the money. Their primary concern is the well being of their patients (the animals) and their owners, which is hard to find at other vets these days. I will always recommend Ali'i to everyone!! Read Less

Read MoreThis review is LONG OVERDUE, but Alii is truly the best pet hospital out there. I commute from the West Side just to bring my baby Momo to the best doctors.
We started off with all of our initial appointments with Dr. Yasunaga, when baby girl Momo was only a few weeks old. Dr. Yasunaga is kind, knowledgeable and extremely patient - not with just the dogs, but their pawrents too! I remember asking her a TON of questions since this was my first time taking care of a dog of my own (as in, not my parents'). She reassured me with the kindest voice and took me through every step of what was expected with the growth of my puppy and upcoming appointments.
My breed, the West Highland White Terrier, or westies, for short, are prone to sensitive skin and sensitive tummies. Dr. Yasunaga was kind enough to recommend all of the foods and preferred brands to take care of our baby best.
One scary day, we found Momo next to a box of chewed up match sticks. We called Alii immediately and their expert staff was able to assess the situation over the phone and determine whether or not to come in. After their recommendation, we rushed her to their office and were seen by ER doctor, Dr. Pressler. She was also extremely reassuring and patient with us, even though we felt terrible and scared for Momo. Dr. Pressler informed us of our different options such as X-ray, or surgery, depending on the severity of the situation. Luckily, inducing vomiting was enough and no invasive services were needed. This was something I really appreciated, as every process and explanation was clear, and I was not charged for something that was unnecessary; above all, Momo didn't have to go through any procedure that wasn't needed. All of my questions were reassured and we were supported 100% of the way.
We love coming to Alii and I can't imagine taking her anywhere else. Not only are the receiving staff friendly and helpful, but the vet techs are skilled, informative, and their physicians are beyond talented. I couldn't thank Alii more for all they've done for us and our baby girl Momo. Read Less

We've had our baby (mini golden doodle) for almost three years. She's literally the light in our lives. We are the obsessed helicopter pawrents. The longest we've ever left her was daycare at Alii which she loves! It finally came time where we had to leave for three days and could not take her with us. We had so much anxiety and many questions for Alii. They were so patient and answered all of our questions/concerns. I love the fact there's a camera in her suite (yes it's a suite not a crate!) for us to check up on her and during the day she gets to play with her furry fwens. She also got walked three times a day outside. I am definitely taking more future trips knowing my baby will be safe and happy at Alii Read Less

Ali'i Animal Hospital was the only place who got back so quickly and had an opening the following weekend. It's still curbside which i totally understand because of COVID but i was extremely anxious about it since we found out our puppy had intestinal worms, which only made the situation scarier. My boyfriend tried to assure me it would be okay but i wasn't having it and nearly in tears.
The receptionist and technicians were very helpful and so kind to us, walking us through everything we needed to know. however it was Dr. Takiguchi who really blew me away with her call and running me through every single thing that i needed to know going in with this. she knew i was worried and anxious but she got me calm and we even shared a few laughs on the call. while i didn't get to meet her face to face because of covid i'm very happy with the service!

Read MoreI just moved my dog 1.5 year-old Labrador from CA to HI and after the first week of swimming in the ocean and taking in all the flora & fauna, he started developing tiny bumps that turned into welts.
At first, I saw 1-2 scabby areas but chalked it up to possible tick bites as I know how those things thrive in hot and humid climates.. Then, tiny little firm bumps started appearing around his neck and dorsal area, above his shoulder blades. He didn't appear to be itching or scratching but this prompted me to find a good veterinarian ASAP. I typed in my zip code and Ali'i Hospital & Resort was one of the first to appear. I read through all the positive reviews which definitely outnumbered the bad and decided to give them a call. The staff was very friendly and tried to squeeze me in as soon as possible. The did process a $31 booking fee to hold the appointment which would be applied towards the exam fee itself. We ended up calling them back to see if they could squeeze us in sooner for an urgent care visit which they managed to work out for an additional $31, bringing the total for an emergency pet visit to $62.
Because of COVID restrictions right now, we aren't able to go into the clinic with our pets. Rather, you drive or walk-up to your appointment, then call the clinic upon arrival for someone to meet you outside and receive your pet.
The nurse who received my dog, Luke, outside was so genuinely receptive and took all the info about my dog's condition down accordingly.
The veterinarian who ended up seeing Luke was Dr. Yasunaga. Even though I did not get to see her in person and only spoke with her over the phone, I could tell that she is a sweet, good-natured, and caring person. She was kind enough to call me with an update as well as to go over procedures and treatment plans. Furthermore, she was considerate and provided me with estimated costs along the way.
After all was said and done, Luke was diagnosed with an unusual case of Bacterial folliculitis due to hotspots and he was prescribed steroids and antibiotics(which was the bulk of the cost for the meds). They also sent us home with one free dose of NexGard for Luke to try out.
Out-the-door, we paid about $300 total which, I believe, is pretty fair considering they squeezed him in last-minute and appeared to provide him with the best care available on OahuWe've got Luke started on his prescribed meds and are keeping an eye on his progress but are pretty confident he will be well on his way to recovery.

She was kind enough to call me with an update as well as to go over procedures and treatment plans. Furthermore, she was considerate and provided me with estimated costs along the way.
After all was said and done, Luke was diagnosed with an unusual case of Bacterial folliculitis due to hotspots and he was prescribed steroids and antibiotics(which was the bulk of the cost for the meds). They also sent us home with one free dose of NexGard for Luke to try out.
Out-the-door, we paid about $300 total which, I believe, is pretty fair considering they squeezed him in last-minute and appeared to provide him with the best care available on OahuWe've got Luke started on his prescribed meds and are keeping an eye on his progress but are pretty confident he will be well on his way to recovery.

Read MoreMr. Look Yau Mo/ Buttfurs had blood in his poop for almost a week. Some of it was solid but some was also diarrhea. I was super worried and was searching for last minute urgent care appointments from different vets. My regular vet did not have openings until the next week. I called Ali'i Animal Hospital and Resort. They told me they could try to fit me into the schedule that day but it would be more expensive due to the emergency/ urgent nature of the appointment. That was fair. It was $62, double the normal exam fee. I took Buttfurs, called them when I got to Ali'i and they took him in for the exam. I was told the wait may be long. While I waited, I ran some errands and got lunch nearby. Some time had passed, so I decided to make my way back to Ali'l. I should have called first.
When I got back to Ali'i, I asked for an update and was told that Buttfurs was being seen now. There were a few other pet parents that came to pick up their pets. I was standing off to the right side of the entrance. The resort director, Matt Malta saw me and checked to see if I've been helped. I told him yes and that I was waiting on my cat. He asked if I wanted a chair to sit on while I waited or if I wanted water. I said yes to the chair. He brought over one. Thank you Matt! A few of the vet assistants saw me waiting when they helped other pet owners and checked up on me as well. Excellent customer service!
Dr. Judy Yasunaga called me to let me know what she found after examining Mr. Buttfurs. She asked if I was waiting outside, I said yes. So she personally came out to explain everything to me. She was very kind, knowledgeable and patient. I had a lot of questions and was super worried about Buttfurs. She answered all of them expertly! 🙂 I had recently adopted a kitten who's foster kitten-mates were diagnosed with Giardiasis and Coccidiosis (parasites). So I was worried Buttfurs may have it too. I also brought in a poop/fecal sample to be tested for any parasites. Ali'i offers cat fecal sample analysis through outside testing. (IDEXX Fecal Dx Antigen Tests) I was told I'd get the results in 1 to 2 days. She prescribed him some antibiotics and a sedative for the next time I take him to the vet. Buttfurs tends to get very anxious and becomes combative. She also recommended a bland diet for the time being and different ways to mix in the medicines with his food. He has gotten more rotund which I've been slightly worried about too. I was worried about megacolon or anything internally so she suggested that we could do a more thorough examination after sedation and imaging but it would be a bit costly. I was able to get a quote of the cost for that procedure. I'm happy that she provided me with information and explored different treatment options with me. Not once did I feel pressured into choosing one or the other. She is a very genuine and caring veterinarian. Thank you Dr. Yasunaga!
When I got home Mr. Buttfurs was very angry with me, lol. I tried to give him the bland food with the medicine mixed in and he would not eat it. He may have sniffed it out. I called Ali'i for suggestions on how to feed it to him. The receptionist checked with vet assistants and gave me some pointers. Thank you to all the staff members for their helpful suggestions! Sadly, Mr. Buttfurs also didn't fall for anything I tried. So I put the medicine directly into a syringe and squeezed that into his mouth. He was very very angry with me... Was not having it at all. Hissing, snarling, clawing. Lol. I wasted a lot of medicine and food attempting all this. I called Ali'i again, they let me know that their vet techs could give him the medication if I brought him in for a charge. I tried my best with the DIY syringe method. Earned a lot of back leg bunny kicking war scars from this ordeal... Lol.
Almost a week after I still had not heard back with the fecal testing results so I emailed Ali'i at pets@aliianimal.com and got a response within a few days from Nadia. The results showed as negative for hookworm, roundworm, whipworm, ova (eggs) and parasites. Which was great news. Though not sure what the exact cause of his bloody poops were. With some time and a different diet Mr. Buttfurs got better.
I had a hard time trying to give him the antibiotic medication and really appreciated all the helpful suggestions from staff members about how to give him the meds. I also really thank this clinic for accommodating me. By giving me a time slot to have him seen that day because I was really worried. Thanks again to everyone at Ali'i Animal Hospital and Resort for taking care of us! Mr. Buttfurs shares his mahaloz too ;D Read Less

The level of well-rounded expertise they have assembled is 2nd to none. They were also amazing at helping us find the right specialists to help us with our Pug's unique surgical & other medical needs all the while keeping us well informed of our options with the proactive, personalized care to help our beloved pets live their best lives.

Two prior vet hospitals were okay with putting off his surgery, but I knew he wouldn't live if it was delayed. Calling Ali'i was the best thing I could've done! They got him in immediately for a surgical consult and began the surgery the same day. It was an intense surgery, requiring masterful skills and likely some magic from the entire team who helped him.
We're now one week post-surgery and he just had his feeding tube removed as he's doing so well with his recovery.

Read MoreI just moved my 1.5 year-old Labrador(Luke) from Northern CA to HI and after the first week of swimming in the ocean and taking in all the flora & fauna, he started developing what looked like bite bumps that turned into welts.
At first, I saw 1-2 scabby spots and thought they were possibly tick bites as I know how they thrive in hot and humid climates. Then, tiny little firm bumps started appearing around his neck and dorsal area, above his shoulder blades. He didn't appear to be itching or scratching but this prompted me to find a good veterinarian ASAP. I typed in my zip code and Ali'i Hospital & Resort was one of the first to appear. I read through all the positive reviews which definitely outnumbered the bad and decided to give them a call. The staff was very friendly and tried to squeeze me in as soon as possible. They did process a $31 booking fee to hold the appointment which would be applied towards the exam fee itself. We ended up calling them back to see if they could squeeze us in sooner for an urgent care visit which they managed to work out for an additional $31, bringing the total for an emergency pet visit to $62.
Because of COVID restrictions right now, we aren't able to go into the clinic with our pets. Rather, you drive or walk-up to your appointment and call the clinic upon arrival for someone to meet you outside in order for them to receive your pet.
The vet's assistant who received Luke outside was so genuinely receptive and took all the info about my dog's condition down, accordingly.
The veterinarian who ended up seeing Luke was Dr. Yasunaga. Even though I did not get to see her in person and only spoke with her over the phone, I could tell that she is a sweet, good-natured, and caring person. She was kind enough to call me with an update on Luke as well as to go over procedures and treatment plans. Furthermore, she was considerately and tactfully transparent by providing me with estimated costs along the way.
After all was said and done, Luke was diagnosed with an unusual case of Bacterial folliculitis due to hotspots and he was prescribed steroids and antibiotics(which was the bulk of the cost for meds). They also sent us home with one free dose of NexGard for Luke to try out.
Out-the-door, we paid about $300 total which, I believe, is pretty fair considering they squeezed him in last-minute and seemed to provide him with the best care available on Oahu.
We've got Luke started on his prescribed meds and are keeping an eye on his progress but are pretty confident he will be well on his way to recovery.
If we ever consider boarding Luke and leaving him in trustworthy hands, overnight, it will definitely be with his new friends and vets at Ali'i Animal Hospital & Resort. Read Less

Ali'i Animal Hospital and Resort is your one-stop-shop for all of your furry family member's needs: vet / animal hospital / grooming / doggy day care AND boarding!!!
We were initially interested in Ali'i for their vet services as we wanted to find a vet closer to home. We live in town and Ali'i is very conveniently located off Ward Ave. Easy to find. Switching over was easy and they reviewed our pup's records right away to make sure she was up to date on all her shots.
We immediately made an appointment for a grooming. They only take grooming appointments on Saturdays and Tuesdays (I think) because there's only 1 groomer, so we had to wait a few weeks to get in. However, the wait was worth it! Our pup came home looking and smelling fabulous! We had previously taken our pup to either PetCo or PetSmart for grooming - which were ok, but the groomers were always different and she sometimes came back with an uneven cut.
Haven't used their doggy care care service yet, but we love the option to watch the doggys on their web cam to see what they're doing during the day!
Everyone we've interacted with at Ali'i (via phone, email or in person) has been peasant, welcoming and professional. Highly recommend all their services.
Current COVID protocols don't allow you to enter. Instead, they'll meet you and your pup outside. Read Less

Ali'i Animal Hospital and Resort is your one-stop-shop for all of your furry family member's needs: vet / animal hospital / grooming / doggy day care AND boarding!!!
We were initially interested in Ali'i for their vet services as we wanted to find a vet closer to home. We live in town and Ali'i is very conveniently located off Ward Ave. Easy to find. Switching over was easy and they reviewed our pup's records right away to make sure she was up to date on all her shots.
We immediately made an appointment for a grooming. They only take grooming appointments on Saturdays and Tuesdays (I think) because there's only 1 groomer, so we had to wait a few weeks to get in. However, the wait was worth it! Our pup came home looking and smelling fabulous! We had previously taken our pup to either PetCo or PetSmart for grooming - which were ok, but the groomers were always different and she sometimes came back with an uneven cut.
Haven't used their doggy care care service yet, but we love the option to watch the doggys on their web cam to see what they're doing during the day!
Everyone we've interacted with at Ali'i (via phone, email or in person) has been peasant, welcoming and professional. Highly recommend all their services.
Current COVID protocols don't allow you to enter. Instead, they'll meet you and your pup outside. Read Less

We were introduced to Alii animal hospital under terrible circumstances, our baby Minnie had just been diagnosed with heart-worm and we were heart broken. From Minnie's first visit with dr cook to her first treatment appt 1 month later I spent hours (!) on the phone with Dr Cook and we emailed back and forth probably 40 times. She answered every question we had and gave us all the information we would need to know. The treatments my dog needed are life threatening and very serious, we were nervous wrecks that something would happen to her. She had one overnight visit for treatment and two overnight treatment visits one month later. They went SO far above and SO far beyond!! They gave me tons of updates on Minnie and even sent me pictures of her sleeping while she was in the hospital overnight. Our other dog Bentley recently had surgery on his leg and had the required pre surgery blood work done through Alii. They were in contact with the surgeon with the results of his blood test making sure he was going to be able to have it as planned. Everything went off without a hitch and 2 weeks later Dr cook removed his sutures and he is on the road to recovery. We cannot thank them enough!! AMAZING!!! Read Less

I took her to another vet they told me they would need to do surgery to remove and to close up they would need to use bone so therefore she probably would loose her ear. I did research and found out this tumor could be removed with laser. I called around and Alii had the knowledge and the technology. They took her in for surgery the very next day of my phone conversation. They were fantastic. Not only did they remove the tumor from the ear with perfection you cannot even tell there was a huge tumor there.. They removed a tumor from between her toes.. Saved the toe.. Took out 2 fractured teeth and a small nodule in her neck. The vets and staff here are the most caring and best vets I have found yet on the island. My dog is recovering now but you would never know she went through all of that. She is bright eyed and bushy tailed. I would sincerely highly recommend this animal hospital. Read Less

I thought this was really supportive and thoughtful of the company to help pet owners out especially during these times. I also liked the hours, they're open on the weekends!
Hours directly quoted from a email:

Mon-Sat: 6:30am - 8:30pm | Sun: 7:00am - 4:00pm"
Making a new patient appointment was very easy. I called and immediately got an appointment. I was sent a fillable new patient form document to fill out before the apartment and that made thing easy. The staff were very friendly towards me and meow. They also explained things in detail such as how to find the location and answered all of my questions.
The facility is not hard to find, there's a beautiful mural on the side of the building that I have included a picture of. Once there, it is posted on the door to call a number to let them know you've arrived. Nadia assisted me and she had a great personality throughout. She also reassured meow as he's never been here before. I was quoted about 30 minutes for the appointment. I decided to walk over to the Longs to browse while I waited.
Dr. Joanna Cook called me to notify me of the findings and addressed any concerns I had personally. I'm very appreciative of the time she spent to answer all of my questions sincerely. Not once did I feel rushed. She offered different options for treatment and I never once felt pressured into choosing which one. She even offered to email and print a hard copy of the clinical notes for me. I accepted.
After the phone call, I walked back to the facility and called again to pick up meow. Outside I saw Dr. Cook, she greeted me and again went over her findings. I thanked her. Then Nadia helped me with my bill and brought meow back out to me. When I got home, meow was fine and the same way as when I took him in.
I really enjoyed the quality service and the ease to get to this location. The staff are also very genuine and qualified. They also offer a variety of medical services along with pet boarding, daycare and grooming. Check out their website for more information, it's very thorough! Read Less

We had plans to travel back to the mainland and made arrangements for our dog to stay with Ali Resort. Like any good establishment, the resort had to preform some basic things for our dog, ie check medical records, preform a behavioral assessment, ect. The good doctor was VERY patient with me because I am clueless when it comes to our dogs records (my wife handles all medical records for our house). Long story short, our plans got shifted, Ali Animal Hospital & Resort fully reimbursed us (we were still in the appropriate amount of time) no questions asked. Today, I check the mail, and they sent us a hand written “Thank You” card signed by the staff. I was already sold on their level of quality, care, and friendliness but the card sent me over the top. As a non-native haole to this beautiful island, I can’t thank you and your staff enough. We are excited to use your services in the near future. We know our dog will be taken well care of.

My dog King has skin cancer. When he goes in the sun he develops huge masses that bleed and they burst and eventually got badly infected. The skin cells died and his skin started to just fall apart. He has already had 4 surgeries from other vets to remove them so far. This was my first time going to Alii Animal hospital.
King had surgery to remove multiple cancerous masses on his ventral abdomen and groin area. Dr. cook had her work cut out for her, and it was a very high risk surgery, as my dog is already 10 years old. He had stopped eating and couldn't walk by the time he got the surgery, he was on his literal death bed.
The surgery took 3x longer than expected and even though they close at 5pm, the surgery / recovery didn't finish until 8pm.
King is the only baby I've ever had, I would've died if he didn't survive.

From the moment they answered the phone, I could tell this would be a good place to take my cat.After I had made an appointment with Ali’i (same day appointment) one of my co-workers told me I should call a different clinic that she has used. They asked a few questions and would cut me off before I could even answer. They then put me on hold to see if they had any cancellations. When they came back, they told me they could see my cat in about 2 weeks and if I “thought” it was urgent, I could do a walk in and wait 3 hours.I decided to take my cat to Ali’i and I’m glad I did. The girl who came out to check me in was the same girl I spoke with on the phone (I can’t remember her name... not because she she wasn’t amazing, but I was just stressed about something serious being wrong with my cat)While I was waiting outside (due to COVID-19 precautions they were taking at the clinic) I noticed several dog owners picking up their pets from either the Ver Clinic or their Pet Spa. Every single dog that came out was happy and friendly.Overall, they were so friendly and helpful and I will definitely be bringing my cat back to them for any future needs.I hope Tillie wasn’t too grumpy for them.Thank you!

Rex frequents Alii daycare and does not ever want to leave. They have great hours which gives us room to breath when a work day starts very early or runs really long. We have transitioned all of our veterinary care here as well because of the level of service we have received. If anything has ever happened to Rex, Dr. Cook or Dr. Zeoli have called us and checked/treated him on the spot without us having to worry. I recommend them to any pet owner, that really wants to make sure their pet is in great hands. We could not be happier to have found them when we did. Read Less

Dr. Cook and the rest of the staff provided such great service that I decided to sign up for their VIP wellness plan. I was surprised that one of my pups was not afraid in going to the vet as Dr. Cook and her staff really makes my dog feel comfortable. And since my regular groomer is closed because of Covid 19 situation, I decided to try their grooming service. I'm so glad I could find a place that provides all these services in taking such good care of my pets. Thank you for your services. Read Less

I take my two boys (goldens) there twice a week, they love to play with the other dogs. The staff is super friendly, fun and take such good care of all the guests. The place is always really clean. I also get them groomed there and Manny is wonderful with washing and trimming my nervous boys.

Dr. Cook is the best! She is thorough, careful, amazing and caring. Every staff person is professional and pleasant. My dog, who resists going into other veterinarian offices, readily walks (or runs!) into the Alii Animal Hospital and Resort at each visit.

Not only was Dr. Cook wonderful and checked in with the puppies regularly the staff are incredibly kind and warm. As new puppy parents we called often with questions regarding their health and they welcomed questions. Also, we got a handwritten card in the mail by the staff which was such a sweet gesture.
Agreed that they are on the higher end of prices but I do believe that if you want the best service and the best care it is totally worth the extra dollars.
This is the only vet I'd go to on this island. Thank you for everything! Read Less

I ended up needing to bring him in to see her, which during a pandemic was asking a lot, but there she was, ready to help. They even offered a 50% discount on emergency services. During this trying time, that was a great relief to know that our pets don't need to suffer when we might be financially challenged. I have been so impressed with Dr. Cook and the entire team at Ali'i Animal Hospital. From ordering Toby's food and medication and scheduling appointments and even now asking them to support us during this crazy time, they have always gone above and beyond for us. The facility is clean and state of the art. The staff is friendly and accommodating. It feels like family when we walk in the door. We're so happy to be clients of Ali'i Animal Hospital. Read Less

With the virus pandemic I was not allowed inside with my pups. But I was very satisfied with their service. My pups were taken in the front. The staff offered water and a chair so that I could sit outside instead of in my car. It was a nice day so I opted for outside. I am extremely happy with their wellness plans. I decided to get both dogs on the plan so that they would have dental coverage, it's such a great idea. They have different prices based on range. We are looking forward to adding another pup in the future and we will definitely put them on the plan as well. I highly recommend this place for all pet lovers. Read Less

And I LOVE their staff! The kindest, calmest and knowledgeable staff I have worked with (and I have been to 6 vets on island)!!
Our Ridgeback, Riley, has a puppy plan with them which is amazing for anyone that just got a puppy - it includes majority of the services you need for the 1st year of life!
Both pups have stayed with Alii in the Resort side while we did a staycation. You have access to video streaming of them 24/7. My little York is not very dog friendly and while staying at Alii, they kept her at the front desk with them. Which she loved, because she was able to sit on their laps and get all the pets and love. While Riley was able to run and play like a maniac!

We travel every month to the mainland for my husband's work, and it's so comforting to be able to view our 6-year old Shih Tzu and 6-month old Lab on the cameras in the playroom and in their suites at night. We started with separate suites for each dog since one was still a puppy, then Resort Concierge Carly suggested having both dogs share a suite and the 2nd dog gets 50% off. What a deal! Plus our fur kids have really bonded which was not the case when we first brought the puppy home. (See photo of the 2 snuggling together at night!) Ali'i has staff around the clock and we absolutely LOVE Dr. Cook and Dr. Zeoli! We receive emails of photos of our dogs which is a nice added touch! Another perk is the fur kids get spa and bath treatments every other day so they are totally pampered!! Mahalo Ali'i for taking amazing care of Clyde and Declan! Read Less

We have taken our 8 year old lab to 2 other vets prior to Ali'i Animal Hospital and Resort. At both previous vets, our dog would be terrified of even walking in. She would bark and shake from the anxiety of being at the vet. At Ali'i Animal, she doesn't mind going in the front doors and she wags her tail during her time there. Dr. Cook takes great care of her. She is very sensitive to her needs and is a caring doctor. Our dog even gives her kisses! Our dog recently had to have a few teeth extracted and her procedure/recovery went very well. The staff is friendly and the doctors are knowledgeable and trustworthy.

One morning The playroom staff noticed Chewy had hives and called to let us know one of the doctors would examine him. He is always excited in the morning when he goes to daycare and knows exactly where to go. One of the best services they have is the Pet Plan because you have unlimited health consults and it includes dental cleaning and an assessment. Read Less

I like how the dogs have playtime, lunch, and a break to rest. Teddie has found her second home and I am so happy to know that she is well taken care of when I am at work.
