Our Story

Founded in 2008 by Dr. Sarah Johnson, Paws & Claws Veterinary Clinic started as a small practice with a big vision: to create a veterinary clinic where pets are treated like family and pet owners feel supported and informed.

Today, we have grown into a full-service animal hospital with state-of-the-art facilities, but our core philosophy remains the same. We believe in preventative care, compassionate treatment, and building lasting relationships with our patients and their families.

Our clinic serves dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and various exotic pets, offering everything from routine check-ups to advanced surgical procedures.

Compassionate Care

We treat every animal with the same love and attention we would give our own pets, ensuring they feel safe and comfortable during their visit.

Expert Knowledge

Our veterinarians regularly participate in continuing education to stay updated on the latest advancements in veterinary medicine.

Client Education

We believe informed pet owners make the best decisions for their pets' health, so we take time to explain conditions and treatment options.
