- Dog spaying and neutering
- Cat spaying and neutering
- Pre-operative exams and diagnostics
- Full anesthesia monitoring

Every pet receives personalized care from a team that treats your companion like one of our own.
Why Spay & Neuter Your Pet?
Spaying and neutering are essential parts of responsible pet ownership. These procedures not only help control the pet population but also offer important health and behavioral benefits. According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, pets that are spayed or neutered often live longer, healthier lives.
Health benefits include:
- Reduced risk of uterine infections and mammary tumors in females
- Prevention of testicular cancer and prostate issues in males
- Decreased desire to roam, reducing the risk of injury or getting lost
- Lower rates of behavioral issues such as aggression and marking
- Eliminates the risk of unplanned litters
By choosing pet spay and neuter services, you’re giving your dog or cat a healthier, more comfortable life—and helping your community by preventing overpopulation.
