At Animal Care Centers, we aim to be your partner in lifelong pet care. From playful puppy zoomies to wise old whiskers, our wellness exams are designed to support your pet’s health at every stage. With two convenient sister locations, a close-knit team of experienced veterinary professionals, and a shared commitment to personalized care, we help your pet thrive in body and spirit.
Every visit starts with a full-body assessment. Our veterinarians will check your pet’s eyes, ears, teeth, heart, lungs, skin, joints, and abdomen to detect subtle signs of illness or discomfort early on.
We’ll never over-vaccinate. Instead, we tailor your pet’s vaccine plan based on their species, age, lifestyle, and exposure risks, so they’re protected without unnecessary extras.
Even indoor pets need parasite protection. We’ll guide you in choosing the safest, most effective preventives for fleas, ticks, heartworms, and intestinal parasites, customized for your pet and family’s needs.
A microchip gives your pet permanent ID and can be a lifesaver if they ever get lost. This simple, quick procedure provides peace of mind for years to come.
To monitor your pet’s health over their lifetime, we recommend regular screening tests, such as bloodwork, urinalysis, fecal exams, and more, based on their medical status and life stage. Our Princeton location also conducts Coggins testing for horses.
If needed, our USDA-certified veterinarians will issue a health certificate, whether your pet is traveling within the country or overseas. Our Princeton veterinarians can also issue health certificates for horses.
We recommend annual exams for most adult pets and twice-yearly visits for senior pets or those managing chronic conditions. Puppies and kittens need to come in more frequently during their first year to stay on track with vaccines and development.
You’re not alone. Many pets get nervous at the clinic. We’re here to change that. Our team uses gentle handling, treats, and patience to make each visit as low-stress as possible. With time and consistency, we often see anxious pets grow more comfortable and confident.
That depends on their species, age, lifestyle, and health history. We’ll create a custom vaccination plan just for them.
Yes. Even pets that stay inside can develop health issues, including dental disease, obesity, or internal conditions that are easy to miss without a physical exam.
Please bring your pet’s medical records, any current medications, and a list of changes in behavior, appetite, or routine. A favorite toy or treat can also help ease any nerves.
