Pet Boarding
Our pet boarding facilities provide safe, comfortable accommodations for dogs and cats when owners travel. Each location features climate-controlled rooms with daily exercise and personalized care. Special needs pets receive appropriate attention while maintaining familiar routines. With three Cincinnati-area locations offering single and double suites, we ensure pets remain close to home during their stay. All boarders receive regular health monitoring by our veterinary staff.
Veterinary Surgery
We perform routine and complex surgical procedures using advanced techniques and equipment. Services include spay/neuter operations, soft tissue surgeries, and emergency interventions. Pre-anesthetic bloodwork ensures patient safety while postoperative care includes pain management and recovery monitoring. Our surgical team maintains strict protocols for sterilization and infection control throughout the procedure.
Wellness Care
Comprehensive wellness exams detect early signs of disease in pets of all ages. Our veterinarians assess organ function, dental health, and nutritional needs during annual or bi-annual visits. Diagnostic testing identifies potential issues before symptoms appear. We create customized vaccination schedules and parasite prevention plans based on each pet's lifestyle and exposure risks.
Dental Care
Professional dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup to prevent periodontal disease. We use digital dental radiography to identify hidden oral health issues. Treatment plans address tooth decay, gum infections, and oral pain management. Our team educates pet owners about home dental care techniques to maintain oral health between professional cleanings.
Vaccinations
Core and elective vaccination programs protect pets from infectious diseases. We follow AAHA guidelines while tailoring vaccine protocols to individual risk factors. Services include rabies, distemper, bordetella, and leukemia vaccinations with proper documentation for boarding requirements. Our staff explains vaccine benefits and potential side effects during wellness visits.

The vets are good, the facility is clean and the staff is professional. This is a top-notch vet if you have an appointment, but you'd better have back-up for emergencies. My puppy took a high jump and I thought he'd broken his leg. I called around 1:30pm and begged to have him seen, but "there were no appointments available". I took him to another vet. Luckily his leg was only bruised.

They take great care of my dog. She is always so happy when l pick her up. Lots of friendly and happy faces work there too. My dog has been boarded there twice. They even give me a report card after her visit. I'm impressed so far!

The staff is very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. My dog is treated well and I highly recommend Forest Park Animal Care. I used to take my dog to Fairfield Animal Care but no longer! I will drive the extra miles for great service!

I went there to see the kennels for my dog and cat to stay at the end of March. My dog has anxiety and Jill from the Fairfield Center suggested it during my last visit. I just loved both the small dog and the cat kennels and the additional care. I feel so much better about leaving my animals in the quieter area with extra attention.

Very nice people the receptionist is very welcoming. My cat Zelda Rae was very comfortable with the vet tech as well as the veterinarian doctor. They took care of my baby girl very well. I definitely will be returning every year for Zelda checkup.

We've been taking our cats there for over 10 years. Dr. Lisa is so good with them. My parents also took their cats to her for over 30 years. All the workers are friendly & helpful.

Dr. Lisa and BJ are the best vet and tech around. Thank you for always being helpful and kind to our critters! Toby was worn out from his first visit.
