We are open Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. We also offer Saturday appointments for your convenience.

While we welcome walk-ins when possible, appointments are strongly recommended to ensure that we can see your pet in a timely manner.

Keeping Your Pet Healthy Throughout the Year
We believe that preventive care is the foundation of a long, healthy life for your pet. Here are some key aspects of preventive veterinary care:
- Regular Checkups: Just like humans, pets benefit from regular checkups, even when they seem healthy. These visits allow us to detect potential problems early on, when they are often easier and less expensive to treat.
- Vaccinations: Vaccinations help protect your pet from serious and potentially fatal diseases. We will work with you to create a vaccination schedule tailored to your pet’s lifestyle and risk factors.
- Parasite Prevention: Fleas, ticks, heartworms, and intestinal parasites can not only make your pet uncomfortable but can also transmit diseases. We offer a variety of safe and effective parasite prevention products to keep your pet protected year-round.
- Dental Care: Dental disease is a common problem in pets, and it can lead to serious health issues if left untreated. We provide professional dental cleanings, as well as guidance on home dental care.
