Annual and Semiannual Wellness Exams

Preventive exams help identify potential health issues before they become more serious. For most pets, we recommend wellness exams once or twice per year, depending on age, medical history, and lifestyle.

Each exam includes:

  • A full physical examination
  • Review of medical history and lifestyle factors
  • Individualized care recommendations
  • Time to address any questions or observations about your pet’s behavior or condition

Wellness visits also include vaccination planning based on each pet’s specific exposure risks. Vaccines are not administered by routine—they are tailored to your pet’s needs.

Puppy and Kitten Care

The first year of life is critical to long-term well-being. New pet visits typically last about 45 minutes and cover a range of foundational topics.

During your puppy or kitten’s initial appointment, we will:

  • Create a customized vaccination schedule
  • Discuss safe socialization and behavior guidance
  • Review nutrition and parasite prevention
  • Plan future care based on your pet’s breed and home environment

This early investment in education and prevention helps reduce the likelihood of future complications.

Senior Pet Wellness

As pets age, their medical needs shift. For older dogs and cats, wellness exams every six months are recommended. More frequent evaluations help detect age-related issues such as arthritis, cognitive changes, and organ function decline.

Senior care at Village Veterinary Clinic includes:

  • Diagnostic screening and imaging
  • Pain management options (e.g., Librela, NSAIDs, therapeutic laser)
  • Joint and cognitive support through targeted nutrition and supplements
  • Recommendations for mobility and environmental adjustments

These services are aimed at helping senior pets maintain comfort and quality of life as they age.

Travel Health Certificates

If you’re planning to travel with your pet, our USDA-accredited veterinarians can issue health certificates for domestic and international travel. Because different destinations have specific requirements, including vaccines, microchipping, and testing, early planning is essential.

Please contact our team well in advance of your travel date to:

  • Identify necessary documentation
  • Schedule required services and timelines
  • Ensure compliance with state or country regulations
