By exclusively catering to cats and employing gentle, low-stress handling techniques, we ensure a serene and calming environment that fosters optimal healing and wellness.
Beyond our clinic's walls lies a world of convenience and adventure. With a Starbucks conveniently located just across the parking lot, diverse dining options nearby, and scenic hiking trails in the picturesque Cougar Mountain just a stone's throw away, every day promises a blend of work and play.
If you're ready to be part of a passionate team dedicated to making a real difference in the lives of cats and their devoted owners, we'd love to hear from you.
