Client Testimonials
Cori H.
“I cannot even begin to describe how amazing Moonlight Veterinary Center is! My pup Carl has received the absolute best care, I truly can’t imagine taking him anywhere else. He has seen both Dr. Hackett and Dr. Halsey and they are both so incredibly knowledgeable, warm, understanding, genuine and caring! Carl is almost 12 years old and has had a few issues this past year, but I feel so confident and safe with Carl in their care. And every single person who works in the office is unbelievably nice, empathetic, friendly, informative, accommodating and helpful! They always communicate and update me regarding Carl’s health and status and always check in the following day to see how he is doing. I do not have one negative thing to say and I never write reviews, but felt so compelled to write this positive review because I am beyond thankful for everything they have done for my sweet Carl :)”

“Wonderful experience! Met with Dr. Soares, who was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. I felt she wasn’t trying to upsell me anything I didn’t need. The rest of the team I met was also incredibly professional and kind. I was able to be seen within a few hours of calling for a wellness check up and was very glad to have found the place! I would absolutely recommend Moonlight to other people in need of a new vet.”
Elizabeth M.
“My new favorite local veterinarian in Encinitas! They took the time to really understand my pup’s issues, followed up to make sure she was recovering, and everyone there is smart, friendly, and a part of the community. I highly recommend them!”

“My dog got really sick and is terrified of the vet and can be a handful. They were so understanding and worked with us. The staff was so nice and calming. Dr. Hackett was great and checked in on our dog multiple times. Couldn’t have asked for better care.”
James D. H.
“Dr. Hackett is the best of the best. She has the very unique qualities of being both professional and personable. As soon as you meet her and she begins to advise you on the care of your loved one, you will know you made the best decision.”

“Dr. Henry and the staff at Moonlight did an outstanding job caring for my dog, Toby. They clearly explained the tests needed, diagnosis, and treatment plan. The cost estimates were very reasonable and explained in detail, which I really appreciated. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
Matt B.
“I cannot recommend Moonlight Vet Urgent Care enough! I had an exceptional experience here. Dr. Halsey and her staff demonstrated unparalleled compassion and swiftly addressed my pet’s needs with expertise and warmth. The facility is nice and clean, and they provided top-notch care without unnecessary fees. My dog Leo had some serious stomach issues, but they diagnosed and treated him quickly. I’m so grateful for their dedicated care and will definitely make it my go-to place for any pet emergencies. Highly recommend!”
Tom K.
“Dr. Halsey and Dr. Hackett and their staff are amazing! I was so glad to find these great veterinarians after they relocated to this new location! This is a family owned business, not corporate owned. There are many other animal hospitals and practices that have been taken over by large corporations, which is very concerning as when they are corporate owned, the staff, patients and customers sometimes become a “number”. I highly recommend Moonlight Veterinary Center!”
Sarah S.
“We have had the best care with Moonlight. Dr. Halsey is incredible and Marissa was so sweet and patient with our dog, Gertie. Everyone was so nice and took their time to answer our questions. We will continue to receive care for our pets with Moonlight and their incredible staff.”
MaryKay M.
“Hands down best Vet I’ve seen in the life of my 16 year old cockapoo. Dr. Halsey was thoughtful, thorough, cost conscious, practical and compassionate in her treatment recommendations for an acute illness in my dog. I felt totally taken care of by the staff and as an added bonus my dog didn’t shiver in the treatment room . The facility is beautifully renovated, clean and comfortable. This will be my new go to veterinarian for my fur baby.”

“Took my dog here after she hurt her leg. They got me right in, and everyone was so nice. My dog seemed surprisingly happy to be at the vet, and they were so good with her! Their facility is great, and they offer so many services in-house, which makes the process much faster. Would definitely recommend!”
