Services
Home euthanasia
Home euthanasia allows us to humanely end a pets life in the comfort of its own home. We provide gentle transport to the aftercare facility for cremation or burial, ensuring dignity for the animal and peace for the owner. This service benefits owners who lack transportation, have calm pets at home, or need immediate endoflife care.
Vaccinations
We administer routine vaccinations to protect dogs and cats from common infectious diseases. These visits are convenient for busy owners and help maintain lifelong health for the pet. Our experienced staff ensures safe, painless injections that meet veterinary standards.
Wellness exams
Our wellness exams provide comprehensive health checks and preventive care for dogs and cats in their home environment. We evaluate vital signs, weight, and behavior to detect early signs of illness. Owners receive personalized recommendations that improve longevity and quality of life.
Illness exams
We perform thorough illness examinations and comprehensive laboratory testing to diagnose canine and feline health conditions. Our skilled veterinarian reviews results promptly, delivering accurate diagnoses and treatment plans. This approach ensures timely care that restores comfort and extends the pets lifespan.

Our laboratory services include blood work, urinalysis, and diagnostic testing performed on-site for dogs and cats. We use modern equipment and qualified technicians to ensure accurate, rapid results that guide treatment decisions.

Great staff all around, but would avoid getting your medications through them. They have done a great job of taking care of my dog. Would give 5 stars if the medication prices were not so far out of line. I went from $163 a month to $56 a month by going online.

We took Bubbles here for dystichia surgery. The doctors and staff were all wonderful and caring. Bubbles' surgery went great and she can now open her right eye all the way and no more pawing at it. They were just such nice people.

My pup gets amazing care every time we go. So many times he was misdiagnosed by our normal vet. We will be patrons for life.

Dr. Hunkeler was amazing and so great to explain everything. It is such a scary and awful thing to see your fur baby suffer like mine was and She was so great. They practiced safety protocols with the covid issues we're still dealing with and were very cautious with social distancing and wearing masks and even with taking my little guy at the door was so scary for him and me because you want to be right there with them but She was on the phone explaining everything to me and being as helpful as she could in helping me understand everything going on with him and that he needed.
Even recommending over the counter eye drops to give him some relief from his eye issue! I would definitely recommend Dr. Hunkeler and her staff they were all caring understanding and treated me no different even though I couldn't afford alot of the care options still made me feel like I could control some of the issues and ease his pain! Thank you for being so great Dr. Hunkeler Little bit and I are so very grateful for your kind and gentle way of caring for everyone in spite of financial struggle!

They diagnosed my dog's eye problem and took great care of her. The dr called the next day to check on her. Excellent vet techs also.
