HOPE opened in 2006. Since opening we have sterilized 266,000 cats and dogs to date in 2021. We expanded our services because we noticed there was a gap in accessibility to veterinary care and started providing wellness services. This program has become hugely successful since 2019. We have served over 16,000 clients and their pets.
We strive daily to create an environment that is conducive to teamwork and learning. Where people feel respected and able to do their job and feel needed. I am truly lucky to have had found a job that is emotionally and socially rewarding, I hope that my employees feel the same way. Working with the under-served is something that can be challenging and at times very frustrating. By proving these needed services, you are changing the lives of not only the companion animals that you are helping but also the owner that loves them. That is why we feel so passionately about our tag line “Every Pet Deserves a Vet”.
