At Wheaton Animal Hospital, you’re considered part of our extended family. Many of our team members have been here for decades, building lasting relationships with the pets and people we serve. That kind of continuity means you’ll always see familiar, trusted faces who know your pet’s history and treat them with gentle, individualized care every time you visit.
With a long-standing reputation and a passion for every kind of pet, Wheaton Animal Hospital blends traditional veterinary care with personalized attention and species-specific knowledge. We’re proud to serve a diverse and devoted community, offering services tailored to dogs, cats, and a wide range of exotic pets.
Since opening our doors in 1974, we’ve been a trusted name in the Kensington and Wheaton area. We’re honored to care for multiple generations of pets from the same families, and even see some of the same friendly faces we met decades ago. That kind of history means something to us, and we’re proud to continue earning your trust, visit after visit.
Not every vet is equipped to care for snakes, turtles, guinea pigs, birds, or fish—but we are. Dr. Schwartz and our team offer experienced, species-appropriate care for a wide range of exotic pets, including reptiles, small mammals, birds, and aquatic animals. Whether your parrot needs a wellness check or your bearded dragon isn’t eating, we’re here to help.
Our team isn’t just experienced; they’re here for the long haul. Many of our team members have worked at Wheaton Animal Hospital for multiple decades. With a shared passion for pets, our team builds deep, lasting relationships with the families we serve. From remembering your dog’s favorite treat to recognizing when something’s just a little “off” with your cat, that kind of consistency is rare, and it makes a difference in your pet’s care.
