Services
Life Care Animal Hospital veterinarians and technicians are committed to excellence. Our world-class staff combines cutting-edge veterinary technology with decades of experience to provide the highest level of care for your pet. We understand that a pet is part of the family. Our goal is to provide each one with a long, healthy and happy life.
You work hard to ensure that your furry family member has the best possible life. That's why partnering with a veterinary provider who genuinely cares for you both is so important. At Life Care Animal Hospital, we are proud to offer a comprehensive range of services to address your pet's specific veterinary needs.
Your pet's health is always our number one priority, which is why for most pets we recommend annual wellness exams to ensure that your animal companion remains in good health. If your pet is a senior-over seven for dogs, over nine for cats-we strongly suggest twice-yearly exams and blood screenings.
Imagine if you never brushed your teeth or had them cleaned. Pretty frightening, right? As you can imagine, things would eventually start to go very, very bad inside your mouth: teeth would rot and decay, gums would become inflamed and infected. Bacteria from those rotting teeth would eventually travel into your bloodstream and could cause other serious health problems.
Young animals are like kids-it's a never-ending job to keep them safe and happy. Vaccinating your pet is a relatively inexpensive but very important way to protect his or her health. In addition to preventing many life-threatening illnesses, vaccinations can prevent diseases prevalent in wildlife and those that can be passed to humans.

They should be more upfront about your pricing and inform us that we will be required to pay for another office visit. I have worked in vet clinics and I have never had to have TWO exams ONLY 4 WEEKS APART. we did not ask for a Doctor time slot just a booster. I am very aware that Dotors in the veterinarian profession are totally under valued but over charging this way is no way to ethically boost your sales.
We never got a call back to check on the dogs after our first visit and Rocky was very sick and I knew from my previous experience not to worry, so saying you care about our pets is not true

The experience here has been phenomenal and I will keep trusting them with my pet and future pets. We mainly see the veterinary Helga but we have had great experiences with their gentlemen vet as well. You can call or email and expect a prompt response.

Sadly, I am leaving LifeCare Animal Hospital after being with them for over 5 years. After doing a market comparison, they over doubled their prices for a routine spay in 16 months (see photos for reference). If you cannot afford $1,200 - $1,400 for a spay I would recommend seeking care elsewhere. They also started charging more for other services, I believe I paid $20 for a nail trim during a puppy visit. Dr. McKenna was great and provided wonderful care. I will miss seeing her. I recommend her if you don't mind paying far above what other local vet clinics will charge you. However, I cannot in

Dr McKenna is the most kind and compassionate veterinarian that we have ever had the pleasure of taking our dogs to. She has a very calm and soothing demeanor and truly listens to every question and concern that we have answering honestly and thoughtfully. The facility and staff are amazing, as well. Highly recommend!

If you are looking for caring, professional , accessible and reasonable prices for your best friend(Lewie the Lab , in our case), Life Care Animal Hospital, is our top choice. From the staff at the front desk, to the Veterinarians, you will feel you have made the right choice for care, with no high pressure to purchase anything your best friend may need. You are given options and you can choose, what you feel is needed. Life Care staff on at least several instances, have helped us find Lewie when he has decided to visit the neighborhood. A great team !

I love the whole team at Life Care!! They have been an absolute God send to us and our fur babies!! From check ups to literal emergencies.
We have had scares where we have had to call them from the car telling them that we are on our way with a very sick one... when we pull in the parking lot, the whole team was waiting for us. In the parking lot to help us bring them in, holding doors open and guiding us into a back room for privacy.
McKenna and Helga (my all time favorites) care so much that they have literally sat on the floor with us while holding our little sick fur babies and cry. They
