THE BENEFITS

Pet Resort With Your Vet

Not all pet care facilities are created equal. When you choose a veterinary pet resort, you’re not just booking a place for your pet to stay—you’re choosing professional oversight, medical peace of mind, and a team that truly understands animal wellbeing.

What sets us apart from traditional pet boarding or daycare?

  • Track subtle changes in weight, behavior, & mobility.
  • Update vaccines & parasite protection.
  • Provide tailored advice on diet, enrichment, & environment.
  • Identify early signs of illness that might go unnoticed at home.

Whether your pet needs a bath, a place to stay, or daily medication while you’re away, a veterinary-supervised resort offers the personalized care and expert attention they deserve.

Bathing

There’s nothing better than cuddling up to a fresh, clean pet! Whether your furry friend loves to splash in puddles, roll in the dirt, or simply needs a refresh, our professional bathing services help them look, feel, and smell their best—while supporting their overall health. At our veterinary hospital, we treat every pet with gentle, compassionate care. Whether your pet visits us for a stand-alone bath or as part of a boarding appointment, we create a low-stress experience designed to keep tails wagging.

Where wellness begins

Why Choose a Veterinary Hospital for Bathing?

Bathing your pet at home can be messy and sometimes difficult—especially for pets with long hair, thick coats, or anxious temperaments. By choosing a veterinary hospital for your pet’s bathing needs, you get the benefit of:

  • Trained animal care professionals who know how to safely handle pets of all sizes, ages, and temperaments.
  • Veterinary supervision, especially important for senior pets or those with medical conditions.
  • High-quality, pet-safe shampoos and skin products suited for sensitive skin, allergies, or specific coat types.
  • A clean, temperature-controlled environment designed for comfort and safety
  • Health monitoring during every visit—we keep an eye out for signs of skin issues, lumps, or parasites.

Your pet isn’t just getting a bath—they’re getting a wellness boost in a space designed with their safety in mind.

What’s Offered in Our Pet Bathing Service?

Our comprehensive bathing services go beyond the basics. A bath can include:

  • Nail trimming to prevent overgrowth, discomfort, or accidental scratching
  • Ear cleaning to remove debris and help prevent infections
  • Anal gland expression (for dogs, as needed) to support hygiene and comfort
  • Light combing to detangle and smooth out the coat

We take time to ensure every step of the bathing process is done with care. Your pet’s comfort and well-being always come first.

What Are the Benefits of Regular Bathing?

Routine bathing is an important part of preventive care. It helps:

  • Eliminate dirt, dander, and allergens.
  • Reduce shedding and improve coat condition.
  • Remove fleas, ticks, or irritants hiding in the fur.
  • Support healthy skin by preventing dryness and buildup.
  • Give you a chance to detect any unusual changes like lumps, rashes, or parasites.

With professional bathing, your pet leaves not just cleaner—but healthier and happier, too.

Boarding

Planning a trip? Whether you’re heading out of town for a weekend getaway or an extended vacation, finding reliable, compassionate care for your pet is essential. Our veterinary-supervised boarding services offer a secure and stress-free environment where your furry family member can feel right at home while you’re away. At our veterinary hospital, pet boarding is more than just a place to stay—it’s a fully supported experience designed to meet your pet’s physical, emotional, and medical needs.

YOUR PET’S HOME AWAY FROM HOME

Why Choose Veterinary Boarding Over Traditional Pet Boarding?

Not all boarding facilities are created equal. When you board your pet at a veterinary hospital, you gain peace of mind knowing they’re in the hands of trained animal care professionals—people who understand how to recognize early signs of stress or illness, and who can take immediate action if needed. 

Here’s what sets veterinary boarding apart:

  • Veterinary-trained staff monitor your pet throughout their stay.
  • On-site medical support for illness, injury, or chronic care needs.
  • Strict vaccination & health protocols to protect all guests.
  • Safe, clean, and species-specific boarding areas.

Whether your pet needs daily medication, has a chronic health condition, or just needs extra TLC while you’re away, we’re equipped to provide personalized, high-quality care.
