Littlestown Veterinary Hospital is housed in a barn that is over 160 years old. The property was purchased by Willis and Denise Myers and went through tremendous remodeling including installation of insulation, new siding, and large windows. The building functioned as their pottery workshop and sales facility for about 10 years.
Further remodeling was necessary to separate exam rooms, a waiting room, laboratory, radiology, animal housing areas, surgery, and a large treatment room. The goal was to keep the old beams exposed and maintain the antique flavor of the building while ensuring efficient flow of patient and client traffic.

We absolutely LOVE Littlestown Veterinary Hospital. They do amazing with our dogs and cats (and us lol). My kitty who is usually not very happy with going to the Vet (that's putting it lightly) only seems mildly annoyed when going there. It makes my heart happy (and my anxiety lower) that my crazy cat isn't going to hurt anyone nor is he going to be accidentally hurt.
They are the BEST!

The doctors at Littlestown graciously and lovingly took care of the needs of our elderly dog. They always kept her comfortable and put our concerns at ease.
We are now gladly entrusting them with our new addition. Our appointments are actually fun and the entire staff goes out of their way to make a fuss and keep her happy.
Such a great place- highly recommend for all of your pet care.

I always appreciate how gentle everyone is with handling my dog and how they respect my thoughts and decisions with her care. There are no guilt trips, but they kindly educate me and refer me to reputable resources to help me make the final decision. I drive almost 40 minutes to get to this Vet, passing about 5 other vets on the way - but their kindness towards my dog and their respect to me as the Pet Owner is worth the longer drive. They are true professionals.

We just took our 7 year old chocolate lab there for his annual vaccines and I will NEVER take my dogs there again. Our dog is very scared and anxious when it comes to a vet visit, especially when it comes to getting vaccines. When we arrived, we were sent into a room. A vet tech comes in and tells us that they want to sedate him in order to get his… shots (which was fine). A few minutes pass and they try to give him the injection in the exam room. He was not having it, so instead of us being able to hold him as they gave him the shot. They literally drug him by his leash into the back. Keep

I love this veterinary practice! We’ve been going to them for 4 years, and we have always had an excellent experience. They’ve helped us through a lot of problems with our two Golden Retrievers. They care, they’re professional, fun, and I love that they have the Pet Desk app to use. I’ve had all of the veterinarians and techs throughout our visits, and I would highly recommend them all! The staff is great too!

Dr. Holland and her staff offer top quality service to your pet/pets. They are always on time and very kind. They do everything possible to make you and your pet feel comfortable. I can't say enough about their professionalism and friendliness.
More about Dr. Holland specifically. She goes way above and beyond the call of duty. She calls to let you… know about your pet after hours. She explains things well to the owners and you feel very comfortable asking questions. All my neighbors take their pets to her and feel the same way I do. We trust her and her staff with our animals and have no

We are very fortunate to have such an amazing Vet hospital so close to our home. We've never had an issue with getting our fur babies in for emergencies or simply getting quick answers through email conversations. Dr.'s Holland & Kubala have always been compassionate, honest and straightforward in helping us to make decisions in what's best for our fur babies.

We can't speak highly enough of this place! From day one, they have loved on our girl and accommodated her needs. They have it noted she isn't the most dog friendly pup and let's us know when the office is cleared for us to bring her in. Dr. Kubala is always so extremely patient with her and us. The staff works well together and towards us, always… acknowledging her even when she barks at them. One of my favorite parts is that they ALWAYS call the next day to check on her after a visit. It means so much to know they care for her just as we do, quirks and all.
Thank you all so very much for

I would NOT recommend this place! They don’t care about animals, only concerned about money. My father tried to bring their sick dog in, and they told him they weren’t busy, however, if he wants to bring her in today they would have to charge an additional fee (even though they aren’t busy) terrible service!
