Do I need to call ahead for an appointment?

What are your hours?

Monday - Friday  8:00 am - 6:00 pm

How often should my pet be seen?

Most pets benefit from a yearly wellness exam. Puppies, kittens, senior pets, or pets with ongoing health concerns may need to be seen more often. Regular visits help us track changes and address concerns early.

What vaccines does my dog need?

Dogs typically receive core vaccines such as rabies and distemper/parvo (DA2PP). Additional vaccines, like leptospirosis, Bordetella, or Lyme, may be recommended depending on your dog’s lifestyle and exposure risk. We tailor vaccine plans to each pet.

What vaccines does my cat need?

Cats are usually vaccinated for rabies and FVRCP (which protects against several common viral diseases). Depending on your cat’s environment, additional vaccines such as FeLV may be recommended. We’ll help you decide what makes sense for your cat.

Do you have medications available at the clinic?

Yes, we carry a range of medications and preventive products in-house for your convenience. You can also use our online store to order refills and have them shipped directly to your home.

Do you offer boarding or grooming?

We do not provide boarding or full grooming services. However, we may offer basic care such as nail trims or ear cleanings. Call us to learn what services are currently available.

What payment options do you accept?

We accept a variety of payment options, including cash, major credit cards, and debit cards. CareCredit is also available to help manage veterinary expenses. Payment is due at the time services are provided.

Do you offer pet insurance?

We don’t provide pet insurance directly, but many pet owners choose to enroll in a plan to help offset unexpected costs. Coverage varies by provider, so it’s worth comparing options to find the right fit for your pet.
