Veterinary Services for All Your Pet’s Needs

To live a full, healthy life, your pet needs a full range of services available to meet their evolving needs. Heart + Paw offers this and more, with preventative care, surgery, dentistry, laser therapy, and many other treatment options provided by our team.

Wellness &
Preventative Care

Wellness and Preventative Care

We recommend annual wellness exams and preventative treatments to keep your pet happy, healthy, and protected from all manner of diseases and infections. Whether your pet is still a puppy/kitten or getting gray around the muzzle, we can provide care tailored just for them.

Dental Care &
Oral Surgery

Dental Care & Oral Surgery

Pets need dental care to maintain their health. This includes teeth cleanings at our hospital and guidance to help with at-home treatment. We can also provide minor oral surgery if needed to treat an infection and relieve your pet’s discomfort.

Spay & Neuter
Surgery

Spay and Neuter

Once your pet is done with their puppy/kitten shots, we will need to discuss their spay or neuter surgery with you. We’ll answer all your questions and help you schedule and prepare for your pet’s procedure so you can be at ease and know they’re in the best hands with us.

Microchipping

Microchipping

A microchip is an easy way to have permanent ID for your pet. Dogs and cats get separated from their owners all the time, but a microchip can increase the likelihood of a swift, happy reunion. Ask your veterinarian about microchipping your pet!

End-of-Life Care

End-of-Life Care

We can make planning for your pet’s end-of-life care a little easier by answering your questions, exploring treatment options, and supporting you in your decision-making. When the time comes to say goodbye, we’ll be here to help.

Laser Therapy

Laser Therapy

Laser therapy is a non-invasive pain management tool that uses light energy to heal bruised and damaged tissues. If your pet has arthritis, an ear infection, a skin infection, or some other painful or slow-to-heal condition, they might be a candidate for laser therapy.

Our Featured Services

Phovia light therapy heals your pet’s damaged skin barrier quickly and can be used in the treatment of many conditions, including hot spots, infections, surgical sites, traumatic wounds, and lick granulomas.
