I have a 125lb rescue dog who is almost 10 years old. He had surgery on his back leg and needed to be taken back to the vet for physical therapy. I called Squad FiftyOne and they sent someone out to help me load him into my car. She was caring and professional and didn't miss a beat getting him into the car. Thank you so much for having this service available.

We called them today for our dog, Jack, and they showed up quick, saw what was happening, got him in and got him to the emergency vet even quicker. They also called on their way to the house and again when they dropped him off. My hats off to the professionalism, courtesy, and knowledge of the Squad 51 staff. The receptionist was also so lovely and calming. Thank you for all you do.

Squad 51 are like angels from heaven. My female Alaskan Malamute was unable to walk anymore due to having hip dysplasia and Squad 51 came out to help me get her on a gurney and get her to the hospital. They came out on a really bad snow day which took her over 2.5 hours to drive (normally 45-60 minutes). I must of called over 10 different vet clinics and Squad 51 was the only one to come through. Thank you so much for your help.

Kind, considerate and professional. I cannot thank these folks enough for helping me get my 115 lb Shepherd /wolf mix to the emergency vet. He was scared and flipping, and they were so compassionate and caring... to me, too, since I was a total mess. They went above and beyond.

An ER doctor at Metropolitan Veterinary Hospital said my dog wouldnāt make it to morning. She called Squad 51 and because of Covid, they were not operating 24/7. However, I also called and Yalanda and even thought they were āclosedā, she got a team together and by 5 AM my boy was at OSU (Ohio State University Veterinary Medical Center) for a chance of survival. I picked him up yesterday at OSU. Was it a freak thing? No one knows for sure what happened. What I do know is he would have died if he would not have made it to OSU. Yalanda was compassionate, knowledgeable and professional! She truly was an Angel! From the bottom of my heart TY to you and your team!

This is Mary Catherine. The owner of the Pomeranian you rescued last night and delivered to Metropolitan Veterinary Hospital in Copley. I just wanted you to know that Chloe had surgery at noon today and had a stent put into her trachea. The senior surgeon said she would not have made it one more night at the previous hospital. Her lungs need to recover but now that she can get oxygen he expects her to make a full recovery. I could not have done it without you! You are a very special person and I don't have the words to thank you! I hope you have great comfort knowing the role you play in people's lives.
God Bless You Yalanda!
Thank you for saving my Chloe!
I will be forever indebted to you!
Sincerely,
Mary Catherine Tartara & Chloe

I can not thank Yalanda enough for her caring on 11/21/2019 transporting my beloved 13 Year Old Chocolate Labrador Retriever Isabelle to my vet. I was unable to lift her into my SUV with her having a server case of arthritis in her rear legs along with her having difficulty breathing. Yalanda came to our rescue. Unfortunately during our visit, it was found that Isabelle had cancer which had spread throughout her body and I had to make the decision to put her down that same day. Isabelle gave me her unconditional love for many years and is truly missed. On 11/26/2019 I visited the Animal Protective League in Cleveland and fell in love with a sweet One-Year-Old Female Black Labrador Retriever named Shadow who was flown in from a shelter in Texas. She had become homeless during the storms that swept the state in October. I took a deep breath and made the decision to save her life and help me mend my broken heart. Yalanda had asked me to give her a call after my vet visit and I gave her the bad news. She was very supportive and concerned about me at my grieving the loss of Isabelle. Again I cannot thank her enough for her being so compassionate.

This is a service many have never heard of and would never thought existed. I am so thankful for MedVet in Mentor for turning me on to Squad FiftyOne, they were a life saver when I was unable to lift and transport my sick dog, Luke Duke. They were even there at the end for final service transport. You all are compassionate, caring and very knowledgeable. Thank you all so much; my family is so appreciative of the services you provide.

Thank you, thank you Yalanda for helping to transport my 100 pound lab to the emergency clinic in the middle of the night. My Buckeye was having such a hard time breathing and I was terrified he would struggle so bad and expire right in front of me. Your kind heart and gentle ways helped ease my fears. You picked me up at 3:00 am and traveled quite a distance to do so. Then you had enough compassion to wait for me to give me a ride back home. Unfortunately I had to put my sweet boy down that night. I truly do no know what I would have done without Yalanda and Squad FiftyOne. I will be forever grateful for your thoughtfulness. I truly think God sent me an angel to help me get through this traumatic situation. I highly recommend your service. Thank you again!

The customer service was beyond what I could have imagined. Just the passion she had for animals in general, even with a callback to inquire if we were ok or successful with placing the dog in the vehicle. The advice given was duly noted and for that reason I want to thank Squad 51. You know who you are and your awesome.

Ladies, Iām late with this post. We truly appreciate the loving care you gave in transporting our beloved Topaz to Belvoir Pet Hospital over a week ago. Sadly, she passed away. You ladies made her last moments easier for her, and for us. We cannot thank you enough. God Bless!!!!
