The name 'Hope Animal Clinic' comes from Jeremiah 29:11, 'For I know the plans that I have for you,' declares the LORD, 'plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.' We believe that all people need hope. Hope Animal Clinic offers hope to clients and their pets through professional, compassionate care supported by the highest medical standards, the latest equipment, and the utmost in dedication. Hope Animal Clinic opened on April 3, 2000, in an 1800 square foot Roosevelt-era house renovated as a medical facility. Behind the house stood a garage that was renovated as our first boarding facility. Through the years, Hope has grown to comprise a 10,000 square foot state-of-the-art medical facility, a 9,000 square foot boarding facility, a 10'x 35' pool used for pet rehabilitation and recreation, and a doggy daycare area. The original staff consisted of Dr. Fuller, his wife as the receptionist, one full-time technician, and one part-time technician. Today, Hope Animal Clinic employs over 80 full-time and part-time employees, including 6 full-time doctors

Mission — The mission of Hope Animal Clinic is to honor God and offer hope to each client as we provide the highest quality of veterinary medicine and surgery as well as comprehensive pet care services at competitive prices in state-of-the-art facilities, utilizing dedicated, skilled doctors and staff who are committed to high standards of medical care and ethics
