Meet the team
A group of veterinarians, technicians, and support
staff dedicated to thoughtful, relationship-based care.
Because the best part of what we do
isn’t what we do — it’s who we do it with.
What to expect
Care that does more for
your pet. And you.
We’re a team of veterinarians, technicians, and support staff who care deeply about both pets and the people who love them.
At Paws Up, we work collaboratively to create a calm, supportive experience for every visit.
