Pet Vaccinations and Preventative Care

Protect Your Pet with Preventative Care

At Caring Hands Veterinary Hospital, we believe prevention is the foundation of a long and healthy life for your pet. Our vaccinations and preventative care services are designed to protect your furry friends from common illnesses and support their overall well-being. From tailored vaccination plans to specialized health support, we’re here to help you keep your pets thriving at every stage of life.

Customized Vaccination Plans for Every Pet

Every pet is unique, and their vaccination needs vary based on their age, lifestyle, and risk factors. Our experienced team provides tailored vaccination plans to ensure your pet receives the right protection at the right time. With our personalized vaccination plans and booster scheduling, your pet’s health is always in good hands.

Core Vaccines for Dogs:

  • Rabies
  • Distemper, parvovirus, parainfluenza, adenovirus x2
  • Leptospirosis (core vaccine in our clinic)

 

Core Vaccines for Cats:

  • Rabies
  • Feline viral rhinotracheitis, calicivirus, panleukopenia
  • Feline leukemia virus (FeLV) for cats under 2 years of age

What Are Core and Non-Core Vaccines?

“Your staff has always been friendly and efficient. Ranger, my dog, is comfortable being there. I like that you can pick up the animals in the parking lot. Ranger is more comfortable waiting with me in the car than in the office with other dogs around.”
