Senior Pet Care
What Is Senior Pet Care?
Senior pet care focuses on preventative health and early detection of age-related conditions such as arthritis, kidney disease, diabetes, and dental problems. These visits often include more frequent checkups, diagnostic screenings, and adjustments to diet and exercise.
At our clinic, we create individualized care plans to help pets stay active, comfortable, and loved throughout their golden years.
What to Expect from Senior Pet Care:
- Comprehensive exams focusing on mobility, organ health, and dental care
- Routine bloodwork, urinalysis, and other diagnostics to monitor internal health
- Nutritional counseling for weight management and special diets
- Pain management plans for arthritis and chronic conditions
- Regular discussions about lifestyle adjustments and home care tips
Why Senior Pet Care Matters
Older pets are at higher risk for chronic illnesses and often hide signs of pain until the disease is advanced. Proactive care helps:
- Detect and manage conditions early
- Reduce pain and improve mobility
- Extend life expectancy
- Ensure a higher quality of life
