Everything we offer

Care for the whole life of your pet.

Every service listed below is available at Clifton Hollow today. Call us and we'll book it β€” the same as any other appointment.

We're writing detailed pages for each service, and they'll appear here as they're finished. In the meantime, if you have a question about any of them, we'd much rather you just called and asked.

Wellness & Preventive Care

Routine exams, vaccines, and parasite prevention, matched to your pet's age and to how they actually live. Pets hide illness well β€” a lot of what we find at a wellness exam is something a family had no way of noticing at home.

Puppy & Kitten Care

The first-year vaccine and deworming series, parasite testing, and the habits that make the next decade easier β€” handling, toothbrushing, and socialization during the window when it counts.

Spay & Neuter

We spay and neuter dogs and cats. Timing is a real conversation rather than a fixed date β€” it depends on species, breed, and expected adult size, and we'll recommend what's right for your pet.

Dental Care

Dental cleanings and oral care for dogs and cats. A surprising share of what we find at a routine exam lives in the mouth, and catching it early means a straightforward cleaning rather than extractions later.

Skin & Allergy Care

Itching, ear infections, hot spots, and recurring skin problems β€” worked up to find what's actually causing them, rather than treated on repeat.

Surgery

We offer surgical care for dogs and cats. Before anything is scheduled we'll talk through what's involved, what recovery looks like, and give you a written estimate β€” nothing happens without you knowing the cost first.

Senior Pet Care

Older pets get more attention and more frequent screening, with time spent on the things that define this stage: arthritis and mobility, cognitive changes, weight, organ function, and catching disease while there are still good options.

Sick Pet & Same-Day Visits

We keep room in the schedule for the days that don't go as planned. If your pet isn't eating, is vomiting repeatedly, or just seems off, call us β€” phoning before 11am gives us the best chance of getting you in that day.

Diagnostics & Imaging

Bloodwork, imaging, and laboratory testing to find out what's actually going on. We'll explain what each test is for, what it will tell us, and what it costs before we run it.

Our Referral Network

When your pet needs a specialist or an emergency team, we'll help you get to the right one and stay involved in their care. We work alongside specialty and emergency hospitals across the Kitsap Peninsula and the greater Seattle area.

Why it's a shorter list

We see fewer pets, on purpose.

Clifton Hollow is intentionally low-volume. That means the appointment has room in it for the conversation β€” the questions that never feel big enough to book on their own, and the time to work around a pet who needs a few minutes before anyone does anything clinical.

It also means we'd rather tell you honestly when something is better handled by a specialist than stretch to cover everything ourselves.

Not sure what you need?

Call us and we'll figure it out.

If you're not sure which service fits, or whether something is worth coming in for, just ask. We'd rather answer the question than have you wonder about it β€” and your first visit comes with our BOLD Guarantee.
