With experienced professionals available day and night, we handle trauma cases, poisonings, and acute illnesses using advanced diagnostic tools and treatment protocols. Our facility maintains emergency equipment and medications to stabilize patients before specialized care.
Pet Grooming
Professional grooming services include bathing, nail trimming, and coat maintenance performed by certified groomer Julie Hughes. Our staff monitors pets' health during grooming sessions and alerts veterinarians about any skin or coat abnormalities. We require up-to-date vaccinations for all grooming clients to maintain a safe environment for all animals.
Vaccinations
We administer core and elective vaccinations following AAHA guidelines to protect pets against common infectious diseases. Our vaccination protocols consider each animal's age, lifestyle, and exposure risks while maintaining compliance with local rabies regulations. Clients receive detailed vaccination records and scheduling reminders for booster shots.

Our boarding facility provides temporary housing for pets when owners travel, featuring climate-controlled accommodations and daily health monitoring. We maintain vaccination requirements for all boarding guests and offer medication administration for pets with medical needs. Weekend and holiday boarding availability is currently limited.
