Calm, careful care for the animals you love.
A neighborhood animal hospital in Southeast Portland for dogs and cats — from first puppy visits to gentle senior years. Tell us what brings you in and we’ll route you to the right kind of appointment.
Routine, planned care for a pet who’s doing well. We’ll do a full exam, update what’s due, and build a plan for the year.
Everything your pet needs, under one calm roof.
From a first puppy visit to the gray-muzzle years — wellness, dentistry, surgery, diagnostics, urgent and senior care.
Wellness ExamsPopular
A calm, nose-to-tail check-up — the single best thing you can do for a long, healthy life.
VaccinesPopular
Core and lifestyle vaccines, plus flea, tick, and heartworm prevention tailored to your pet.
DentalPopular
Professional cleanings with dental x-rays and extractions — under monitored anesthesia, done gently.
SurgeryPopular
Spay/neuter and soft-tissue surgery with modern monitoring, pain management, and careful recovery.
Diagnostics
In-house labs, digital x-ray, and ultrasound — answers the same day, not next week.
Urgent CareUrgent
Same-day sick and urgent visits during open hours — and a clear plan for when we’re closed.
Is it an emergency?
Pick what you’re seeing and get honest guidance — watch at home, call us today, or go to the ER now. Guidance, never a diagnosis.
Guidance, not a diagnosis. This tool can’t see your pet. When in doubt, call us or your nearest 24/7 ER. The “Is it an emergency?” triage guide offers general guidance only .
Emergency
Labored breathing, blue/pale gums, choking, or collapse is a true emergency. Go to the nearest ER immediately.
Open-mouth breathing in a cat is always urgent.
Calm from the moment you walk in.

Care & a follow-up
We treat, send you home with simple instructions, and check in afterward. Questions between visits are always welcome.
What we put our name to.
Fear Free, always
Treats, pheromones, gentle handling, and time. We work at your pet’s pace — never force a frightened animal.
A written estimate first
You approve a clear estimate before anything beyond the exam. No surprise invoices, ever.
Plain-language medicine
We explain the why, the options, and the costs in words that make sense — and answer your questions.
Same-day for the sick
A pet who’s truly unwell gets seen the same day during open hours, or routed to the ER if we’re closed.
A plan after hours
When we’re closed you’re never alone — an urgent line, a triage guide, and a direct ER referral.

The families & pets we care for.
Pet-parent reviews, cute patient reels, and a few kind words from around the neighborhood — across all our channels.
“My dog ate something on a walk and I panicked. They triaged me on the phone in two minutes, fit us in same-day, and Dr. Okafor called that evening to check on him. Calmest emergency I’ve ever had.”
“They got down on the floor with our anxious cat and let her come to them. No yowling, no scruffing. We drive across town for this and it’s worth it.”
“First-time dog owner here and they mapped out the whole first year for me — vaccines, spay, training — without ever making me feel silly for asking everything.”
