Veterinarian

Preventive care for dogs and cats is the #1 investment pet parents can make to ensure long-term health. Sploot offers wellness exams, vaccinations, routine pet dental care, parasite prevention & additional services that assist in the prevention, early detection, & treatment of diseases in pets.

Give your puppy or kitten the strongest possible start in life. We offer comprehensive care for puppies & kittens — from your pet’s very first wellness exam to vaccinations and deworming. Our experienced vets will give your pet the thorough care they need during their critical first year of life.

We offer personalized, focused care to keep senior dogs and cats healthy. Our veterinarians will be able to determine the right time for your senior pet to get adjustments to their nutrition, vaccination schedules, wellness exam schedules, dental exam schedules, and recommended exercise.

Scheduling regular wellness exams is the first step to long-term health for your dog or cat. We provide snout-to-tail exams that help with the prevention, detection, & early treatment of diseases. These visits are also a perfect time for updating vaccinations or getting expert advice on pet care.

Vaccinations protect your pet from common diseases that can come from (1) other animals, (2) animal waste, (3) stagnant bodies of water, or (4) vector insects. All dogs & cats need updated vaccines to be protected from fatal diseases, lifelong diseases, & zoonotic diseases, which can infect people.

Help your pet stay healthy and parasite-free. We offer parasite screening and parasite prevention treatments for your furry friend. We recommend that pet parents start parasite prevention early, and continue monthly preventives throughout their pet’s adult life.

Dog and cat intestinal parasites can come from contaminated soil, breastmilk, or an infected animal’s waste. Some pets may not exhibit symptoms until the infestation has progressed. At Sploot, we treat a wide range of parasitic infections, such as heartworm, roundworm, & tapeworm infestations.

Ticks & fleas are known to cause excessive scratching in dogs and cats. Skin parasites can also be vectors of internal diseases (e.g. Lyme disease, tapeworm). A visit to Sploot is a great opportunity to screen and treat these parasites, as well as the diseases they carry.

We offer routine dental care (i.e. annual dental exams and teeth cleaning) for dogs and cats. We also treat cases like tooth decay, tooth fractures, oral infections, and gum disease. Depending on your pet’s need, we can provide treatment in-house or stabilize your furry friend for specialist care.

Whether for routine or diagnostic purposes, we offer a thorough dental exam experience that is stress-free for both pets and pet parents. Routine dental exams are recommended for all pets, at least once a year. Dental exams are also performed on pets that have outward signs of dental issues.

Routine teeth cleaning is recommended for all cats and dogs, at least once a year. For cats, this starts after they are 1 year old, and for dogs, when they are 2 years of age. Teeth cleaning prevents the buildup of acidic plaque which contributes to tooth decay or life-threatening gum infections.

For times of uncertainty regarding a pet’s anxiety, unexplained aggression, destructive tendencies, confusion, or resistance to training, we are here to help! We offer pet behavioral consultations to help pet parents navigate unexplained or challenging behaviors in dogs and cats.

Balanced and complete nutrition is a vital part of keeping pets happy and strong. This is why pet nutrition consultations are recommended for all dogs and cats. We offer pet nutrition consultations that are personalized, considering factors such as your pet’s weight, breed, allergies, etc.

Dogs & cats can suffer from dermatological issues like dry skin, fur loss, itchiness, ringworm, mange, allergic reactions, etc. We offer comprehensive pet dermatology. Our veterinarians will prescribe medications and/or dietary changes to help restore your pet’s skin & fur to their healthiest state.

Just like humans, dogs & cats can have allergies to food (chicken, fish, beef), air-borne particles (pollen, dust, mold), & even fleas. Allergies in pets can manifest as itchy skin, hives, diarrhea, sneezing, & so on. At Sploot, we help pet parents determine & manage their pet’s allergies.

We offer prompt & stress-free bladder stone removal for pets. Pets who have bladder stones typically experience abdominal pain & difficulty urinating. Advanced cases can become life-threatening. We recommend a walk-in appointment for pet parents who suspect this medical issue in their dog or cat.

Dogs and cats may accidentally ingest bits of upholstery, toys, bones, etc. If you suspect your pet has eaten foreign matter, we recommend coming in for a walk-in appointment. Sploot offers stress-free foreign body removal for dogs and cats, aided by imaging technology for precision.
