Here, you will find a team that is passionate about helping your pet live a better life. And about making your life better, too.
Caring for pets, their people, and each other.
Everything works a little differently here. We are at the vanguard of a movement within the veterinary industry. As a Fear Free practice, we have designed your pet’s entire experience to significantly reduce any fear or stress they may experience. From their experience, it will be vastly different than just another “trip to the vet.” Our team is trained on how to handle them, how to build trust, and how to reduce any possible stressors. Our practice is built to make pets (and the people who love them) feel at home, at ease, and relaxed. In little ways and big, this is a fundamentally different way to care.
Why do we do it? Simple. It allows us to provide higher standards of medical care for your pet. And you’ll feel better about bringing them in, too.
Fear Free
When you walk through our doors, we make you and your pet a simple promise: our best, every time. We understand how deeply you love your pet. That to you, they are truly family. That is why we are constantly working to elevate patient care to even greater heights. Learning, striving, and growing. Incorporating cutting edge science and technology so that we can bring you the future of veterinary medicine, today.
This is a higher standard of veterinary care. Because when it comes to the pet you love, we wouldn’t dream of giving you anything less.

"My 17-year-old cat had developed several mats in her long fur. I was referred here by a friend. We got an appointment for the next day and she was sedated and shaved. The staff were very professional and friendly and I felt they were genuinely concerned about giving my old lady the best treatment. They followed up the next day to see how she was doing."

"Dr. Hardee and the staff are always super friendly and welcoming. She saw all 3 of our fur babies. I’m most grateful for their patience with our rescued pup. As nervous as she was, this was by far the best progress I’ve seen her interact with people. I cannot thank them enough for working with her."

"I just witnessed one of your techs jump out of her car without hesitation on a busy country road to save a litter of kittens. Her and I were the only ones who stopped as cars sped by us. I didn't catch her name but she said she works here. The fact that she risked her safety to save them shows how much she cares for pets. Ya'll obviously hire good people. These are the kind of people I would trust with my pets lives."
