We provide 24/7 emergency triage support through VetTriage, connecting pet owners with licensed veterinarians via live video consultations.

The space includes climate-controlled accommodations and supervised play areas. Regular health checks ensure pets remain stress-free during their stay, with immediate access to veterinary care if needed.
Grooming
Professional grooming services include bathing, haircuts, nail trimming, and ear cleaning performed by experienced technicians. We tailor sessions to each pet's temperament and owner preferences, using high-quality products to maintain skin and coat health. Appointments typically last 4-5 hours, minimizing stress while delivering thorough, personalized care.

We educate pet owners on nutrition, preventive care, and disease management through consultations and community programs.

We love the fact that the entire staff shows care and concern for our pets. The doctors, including Thomas, Clayton, and Yates, are professional in their approach and genuinely kind-hearted. Their compassion and dedication make this veterinary practice highly recommended.

I have a dying dog and these people would rather turn you away than set up a bank draft for payday. This place is a joke. They just act like they care about animals. Had me fooled at first.

Wanted to say thanks for taking care of Gus. I live in Oklahoma, and had my dogs boarded for the first time since Covid hit, so I could fly to Chicago for a week. The following Wednesday, we had to travel to Tupelo for work. I noticed a yellow discharge coming from Gus's nose while driving to Tupelo. I scheduled a vet visit the next morning after doing a Google search. Somehow, I showed up at the wrong vet.whoops. Tupelo Small Animal Hospital. So thankful, that they were able to get him in, even though I didn't have an appointment. I appreciate the help, and he is doing awesome! Thank you again!

This is people that actually still care about the animal instead of just the money. I had taken two of my dogs to the tupelo humane society to get spayed. Had to take one of them back a few days later because her incision opened up, their vet wasnt there that week and they had no staples to close it. I called this place and explained my situation but that i couldnt pay them much that day because I was on disability and had just spent what i had paying to get both my dogs spayed a few days before.
They told me in the spirit of Christmas to bring her in and they would close her wound without charging me! I cried because I had no money to pay another vet to close it and was afraid it was going to get infected or i would have to try to close it myself. Thank you guys so very much!
