Our Location

Kirkland, WA is a residential hub of Seattle, featuring its own lively waterfront downtown full of great shops, restaurants, and nightlife. The city has worked hard to make the natural beauty of the area accessible and features gorgeous Lake Washington vistas, parks, and beaches as well as miles of hiking trails and biking paths. Despite its size, Kirkland is a close-knit, sometimes quirky community full of urban professionals and active families, whose kids enjoy some of the best schools in the state. The lush wine country of Woodinville is our next-door neighbor, and the most delicious beer you’ve ever tasted is on every corner.

CARA VETERINARY CORE VALUE PILLARS 

Put pets first. Our first priority is always with the health, happiness, and comfort of our patients. We have designed the Cara experience with the animal perspective in mind. And our care advice is based only on what is best for the pet.
 
Trust the parent. We believe that caring for an animal is a partnership built on mutual trust and humility. We trust parents to make the right decisions for themselves and their pets and invite them to actively participate in care alongside us.
 
Authentically human. Caring for a pet involves the full spectrum of emotions, from joy to grief. We must lean into openness, empathy, and compassionate listening. We know when to be fun, and when to be serious. At all times, we foster supportive, positive, and authentically human hospital culture.
 
Good neighbors. Although our business is growing, we retain the attitude and spirit of a neighborhood vet. We welcome people in. We get to know our clients' families and are proud to play an active role in our local communities.
 
Shake things up. We are always looking for a better way. In an industry that hasn't seen a lot of innovation, we are experimenting with new ways of delivering care, delighting customers, providing unexpectedly human (and animal) touches, and infusing out hospitals with fresh ideas.
