Our Services
Preventive Care
We want the very best for your pet. And that means keeping them healthy through preventive care, such as vaccinations, routine blood and fecal testing, parasite prevention, and more. The physical exam—this is the most important diagnostic our vets will ever perform on your pet. It helps us to detect disease and pain and intervene as early as possible. Unfortunately, our pets age much more quickly than we do, and this is why we recommend a thorough physical exam every 6 months.
Vaccinations
At Villa Rosa Veterinary Hospital, we believe in vaccinating for diseases that are preventable. We also believe in creating a vaccine plan individualized to your pet’s lifestyle. We follow the AAHA vaccine recommendations and also offer titer testing. A titer test measures the concentration of antibodies in the blood and helps to determine if your pet has developed a strong cell-mediated response to prior vaccines. This helps us decide if your pet needs a booster. Although vaccines are generally very safe, titer testing is useful for pets that have an immune-mediated disease, cancer, or a history of adverse vaccine reactions.
Parasite Prevention
Heartworm disease is easily preventable, and we offer several options for keeping your pet safe! We provide a variety of solutions for heartworm, flea, tick, and intestinal parasite control for both dogs and cats.
Nutritional Counseling
Nutrition plays a powerful role in preventive pet care. Our team provides customized nutritional counseling to help your pet maintain a healthy weight, manage allergies, support medical conditions, and enjoy a high quality of life.
Whether your pet needs a diet for growth, maintenance, or special needs, we are here to guide you with expert advice.
Microchipping
Consider microchipping your pet to ensure proper identification if he or she is ever lost. Inserting a microchip is quick and easy, and it will remain under the skin for a lifetime. If your pet ever gets loose, a microchip can help bring him or her home. Any veterinarian can scan the microchip, which will bring up your name, phone number, and address for a safe return.
