Wellness
We would like to start seeing pets for bi- annual exams around the age of seven. To stay on top of these issues can help improve the quality of life for your pet.
Dentistry
The staff at the PetCare Center is committed to veterinary dental excellence. Our doctors attend continual education in veterinary dentistry.
Dermatology
It may surprise you to learn that allergies are the most common cause of skin-related problems. Most experts believe that about 20% of our dog population suffers from an allergy in one form or another.
Senior Care
In the past, we often accepted a declining quality of life for our aging pets as a fact of life beyond our control. Thanks to advances in disease detection and treatment, that is no longer necessary!

  • We were up at our lake home & had to take our dog Oreo there for an emergency. They were about to close when I called but they were kind enough to stay open late for us. The girls were very sweet & the Dr was great ! We really appreciated their patience & kindness.
