As your dog or cat ages, they’re more at risk for diseases like heart disease, arthritis and more.
As time passes and our furry companions grow older, their needs change, and they deserve the best care possible to thrive in their golden years. But what does senior care for pets entail? Examples may include comprehensive veterinary check-ups designed to monitor and address the specific health needs of aging animals, which aim to detect and manage age-related issues early on.

The definition of a senior pet varies depending on their size and breed. Generally, dogs and cats are considered seniors around 7-10 years old. As pets age, they may experience changes in their energy levels, mobility, and sensory functions. You might notice that they become less active, develop joint stiffness, or have changes in their vision and hearing. With our expert guidance, we'll help you navigate these changes and ensure your pet receives the support they need.
