Our Story
Caring For Allendale’s Best Friends For 25 Years
Our love for animals drives us to do our very best for every patient. We practice fear-free care techniques to make visits as pleasant and stress-free as possible for every animal.
We are positive, friendly, and empathetic. We take tremendous pride in our committment to bettering the lives of our patients and their owners. To that end, we value simple, clear communication with our clients.
Caring for animals isn’t just what we do, it’s who we are.

Meet Our Doctors
“Allendale has such incredible Doctors. They’re also so patient with me, and take all the time needed to answer my questions. I wouldn’t trust my two huskies to any one else!”
– Debbie N., Allendale
Teresa Izar, DVM
Medical Director
Dr. Teresa Izar earned her DVM from Texas A&M University in 2004. She first practiced medicine in Dallas, TX. After meeting her husband there, they relocated to his hometown of Ridgewood, NJ. Dr. Izar has a special interest in canine and feline dentistry. She has advanced training in oral surgery and dental crown procedures which can be an alternative to tooth extraction.
Dr. Izar has three animals at home — a dog named Griffin, a cat named Daisy, and a bearded dragon that sometimes responds to the name Athena. Griffin, an Australian cattle dog mix, is an awesome running partner and sometimes he gets to hang out at the office. Daisy, a self-proclaimed couch potato, rarely leaves the comfort of her bed.
