Services
If you have a new puppy or kitten, one of the first items you need to follow through with is the introduction of your new furry friend to Coddle Creek Animal Hospital and our veterinary care team. Puppy and kitten visits offer the best opportunity for us to assist you in planning for a life of health and wellness for your pet.
Coddle Creek Animal Hospital offers PET BOARDING in a clean, climate-controlled atmosphere. There is also a large outside area for your pet to exercise multiple times each day. Nutritionally, we can offer a prescription diet that is very easy on your pet's digestive tract, or we can use any preferred food that you provide for your pet.
At Coddle Creek Animal Hospital, we believe that providing you with relevant information regarding the diet of your pet is important. We carry a full line of life-stage-appropriate and prescription diets to meet your pet's nutritional needs. Whether you have concerns about separation anxiety, inappropriate elimination (house soiling), or other behavioral problems, our staff is prepared to offer assistance in these and other areas.
Should your pet require surgery to resolve a health care concern, Coddle Creek Animal Hospital is ready and able to provide experience in this area, as well. Whether it be for an intestinal blockage involving a pet that ate something it shouldn't have or a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), or spays and neuters, or growth removals, or a fractured limb, we have doctors experienced in these and other areas of veterinary surgery.
Routine prophylactic dental cleanings are very important to any health care program. Teeth problems can lead to bad breath, gum disease, lost teeth, and even heart-related problems. At Coddle Creek Animal Hospital, our technicians use state-of-the-art dental equipment to clean and polish your pet's teeth.

We have used Coddle Creek for 12 years. They have cared for our dogs and even guinea pigs. I feel like they always take their time with our pets and provide a thorough exam. I recommend them to any pet owners.

Excellent care and super friendly! Prices are reasonable and they're great with animals. My cat had to get two shots and some blood drawn and he was completely fine the whole time. The vets are very attentive and listen to your concern, and also give plenty of information as needed.

We have been bringing our pets to Coddle Creek for almost 12 years now and will not take them anywhere else. The office staff is always friendly, caring, and great with our animals. Dr. Tanner is the vet we have seen most often and he is absolutely fantastic! He is thorough, always listens to our concerns, and helps us figure out what is best for our pets. I’d give more than 5 stars if I could!

We have entrusted the care of our 3 cats to Coddle Creek for 8 years now. I cannot say enough good things about this animal hospital. They really care for your pets. We usually see Dr. Packan, she has been a great resource for my oldest cat who has had a myriad of health issues from Day 1, including skin cancer (and having to have his ears removed just one month after we adopted him) and heart problems. She explains everything in great detail so you understand what's going on and your options. But really, every single one of their doctors are wonderful, I've seen all of them. Plus, their prices

Super friendly doctor and technician at our recent visits. We recently adopted a kitten from our honeymoon in FL. We got in when needed every time for booster shots with Dr. Long & tech Katie. They were super nice, helpful and we look forward to her seeing our pets in the future!
We were looking for a closer to home vet (I was a vet tech that retired due to baby, so driving 50 mins thru Clt/traffic wasn't ideal anymore) We called a few hospitals around here and none would allow us inside due to covid..🙄 We want to be with our pet during the appointment like it should be and have actual human

I have been coming to Coddle Creek Animal Hospital for about 6 years now. I think the staff is very professional and friendly. The prices of service are very reasonable and fair. Dr. Little and Dr. Long are wonderful people and fantastic vets! I have lived in this area for 31 years and these folks are the very best around! I only wish that I would’ve found them sooner. I give my get team an A+ for being top notch.

I started taking my cat Bella to Dr.Tanner in August is 2019. I took my cat Bella for check up and found out she was very sick with FIP . I had no idea , she was losing weight.,I just want to thank the office for helping us through her last months with her. Thanks for the Christmas ornament of her paw and thoughtful card from the staff. I appreciate your help during this difficult time. If anyone is looking for a place to take their pet. I would go to Coddle Creek .

The absolute best vet in the world. We've been coming here for about four years now. Everyone is always nice, they make all five of our dogs feel very welcome and even if our pups are nervous going in, they're happy by the end. The doctors and techs all do their best and when something is out of their comfort zone they let you know and refer you to who they know can help. If I could come here for my doctor I would. 11/10 vet care and customer service.

My family has been going to Coddle Creek Animal Hospital for the care of our pets for almost 15 years now and we've never had an issue. The Veterinarians are knowledgeable and the vet techs always seem to know how to interact with animals to make them feel safe and relaxed.

We stopped in last week for a check-up and booster shots for our orange tabby Pacu and everything went smoothly. No waiting around, clean exam room, doctor answered all our questions. I can't honestly say we have much to compare Coddle Creek to as we've never felt the need to go anywhere else. You're furry

We have been going here for over 9 years. While all the vets seem knowledgeable and kind specifically we see Dr. Jennifer Long. We bring all our boxers here including our foster boxers. Our fosters our covered medically (financially) thru another great local Concord vet but we pay personally for Dr Long to see all of them. She treats all the dogs like she is a personal concierge vet in a big city. Just like many breeds boxers have "a lot" going on and we trust Dr Long with all her recommendations but she also knows when it is time to just refer to a specific specialist for the needs

I stopped going there after several years of not so compassionate care, techs pushing immunizations on my dogs regardless of my questions, and being particularly unhelpful when I called about abandoned kittens found in the street.
Moved my pets care to Lakecross where everyone is welcoming, friendly, and when the occasional stray shows up at my house, they always have creative ways to help treat them and place them.

I absolutely love Dr Tanner @ Coddle Creek! We have been going there for several years and he has been amazing with all my animals. In less than a year we have had to put down our dog, Lady, and one of our cats, Cooper, and both times Dr Tanner made an awful situation a little easier. We've never had any issues getting appointments and Dr Tanner is always there if I have any questions! There are really wonderful people at Coddle Creek Animal Hospital and I'm going to miss them terribly when we move back to Florida. I would recommend them to friends and family

If your dog needs surgery or you have an emergency, skip Coddle Creek and go straight to Carolina Vet Specialists. My family has gone to Coddle Creek since the year it opened with two dogs. Bottom line - they are great for checkups, minor illness, and well-visits, but terrible for surgery and emergencies. About six years ago, we pointed out a tumor on our (indoor) dogs hind leg days at-most a week or two after it appeared. They specifically told us it was a "pocket of fluid." Questions about cancer and biopsy were treated as if our family was being overly concerned, borderline paranoid

Took my over hyper dachshund here for a yearly wellness/ shot appt along with a nail trim. Any other vet had to knock my dog out to get her nails done. Dr. Tanner was able to do it drug free, and my little one was at ease with him. The staff was very friendly as well. Highly recommend this vet to anyone in the area.

Took my puppy here because he wasn't feeling well. Called that morning and they got me in at 9am. Saw Dr. Bo Little and he was great. Didn't make my visit seem rushed and seemed to really care about my puppy's wellness. Give it 4 stars just because it seemed a little pricey. The exam alone was $54 and then he had 2 antibiotics, guess that's the price for good vet care tho.

New puppy visit went well with Dr. Long. Really liked her. They were gentle with the puppy and price was about $140 which seems to be about standard.

I have 3 dogs and just recently switched vets. My old vet office just got so outrageous on their prices and ridiculous health screening requirements that I decided to find a new vet. I got numerous recommendations from friends that this place was great. Indeed it was. I am always able to get a very quick appointment (even on Saturdays with not much notice yeah) and their prices are much better than other offices I have dealt with. I have 3 dogs and they worked with me so that I could bring all 3 of them in at the same time to get them entirely up to date. They did a great job with this and
