Surgery being performed on a dog

Spay & Neuter

Spaying (for females) or neutering (for males) not only prevents your cat or dog from producing unwanted litters, it can help reduce unwanted behaviors and health risks, such as:

  • Reduce spraying and marking
  • Reduce risk of certain cancers
  • Reduce wandering and escaping
  • Increase lifespan

 

We offer Spay and Neuter surgeries by appointment only, with the convenience of a same-day procedure. Our board-certified veterinarian and experienced team provide compassionate care and comfort for your pet during their surgery.

 

Check-in time for all surgery patients is between 7:30am-8:30am. Due to our strict schedule, your pet may not be admitted if you arrive after 8:30am. Expect to spend between 15-30 minutes for the admission process.  Cats will be ready for pick up between 3:30pm-4:30pm and dogs will be ready between 4:30pm-5:30pm.
