During Veterinary Technician Appreciation Week, we're filled with gratitude for our amazing team🩺

If you’ve ever visited Cary Street, you already know our technicians are the backbone of our hospital. They monitor anesthesia, assist in surgery, take X-rays, give injections, and still somehow find time to give their patients extra snuggles.

You’d be hard-pressed to find them standing still long enough for a group photo, so instead, here’s a glimpse of them in action, doing what they do best - treating your pets and making sure they get the quality care they deserve.

To our incredible technician team, we thank you for the difference you make in the lives of our community's pets. We couldn’t do it without you!

Cary Street is proud to share that we’ve passed our Fear Free Practice Recertification! 🌟

The recertification process requires us to demonstrate that we make every patient visit as stress-free and positive as possible. While many veterinary professionals have completed Fear Free training, Fear Free Certified Practices are few and far between, with only nine listed in the entire state of Virginia!

Cary Street was proud to be the first practice in Virginia to earn a Fear Free certification, and we remain deeply committed to our mission of providing thoughtful, compassionate care to every pet we see.

Thank you to all our wonderful clients for trusting us to care for your pets. We’re smiling as big as our sweet patient Hickory today! 💙💙💙

🐾A Fond Farewell to Dr. Ellen Russell🐾

It is with both gratitude and sadness that we share our beloved Dr. Ellen Russell will be leaving our hospital October 15th as she and her family prepare for an exciting move abroad.

Dr. Russell has been an integral part of our team since 2020, sharing her expertise and compassion with every patient she’s seen. She has a special talent for preserving the human–animal bond and has made a lasting impact on both the pets and people of our community.

We will miss Dr. Russell dearly, but we are so thankful for the dedication and kindness she has shared with us all. Please join us in wishing her the very best in this next adventure!

If your pet is a patient of Dr. Russell’s, our team will ensure their care is transitioned seamlessly to another one of our talented veterinarians.

Thank you for helping us celebrate Dr. Russell and the thoughtful care she has contributed to our Fear Free mission ❤️

On Rehabilitation Awareness Week, we're celebrating our incredible rehab team, Kim and Virginia, for the compassion, patience, and unparalleled commitment they bring to every pet in their care.

Through our Fear Free Rehabilitation Program, they not only help pets regain strength, mobility, and comfort, but also make each visit a positive, low-stress experience. Their work turns challenges into victories and helps pets (and their families!) feel confident every step of the way. 🐕

💙Thank you, Kim and Virginia, for the love and care you pour into every patient milestone reached. We are so grateful for you!💙

They bring their dedication and expertise to your pets, and they do it all with a Fear Free touch. 💙

This Veterinary Assistant Appreciation Week, we’re celebrating the calmers of nerves (both pet and human), the treat dispensers, the gentle handlers, and the warm hearts behind every wagging tail and happy visit.

Thank you for making every patient feel safe, respected, and snuggled. Cary Street wouldn’t be the same without your kindness and care!

🐾Heads up, pet parents! 🐾

We will be CLOSED on Friday, July 4th for the holiday, so our team can enjoy some R&R (and maybe a hot dog or two 🌭).

Need medications or food for your furry friend before the long weekend?
Give us a call or shoot us a text ASAP so we can get you stocked up before we break out the sparklers! 🎇

📞 804-355-9144
📅 Don’t wait—Friday will be here before you know it!

More pets go missing on the Fourth of July than any other day of the year. Please make sure your pets are in a safe, secure location before the fireworks start, and that they have up-to-date ID to help ensure a speedy return home if they manage to escape.

Stay safe, have fun, and give your pets some extra love from us! ❤️💙🤍

✨"Our work is our love made visible." At Cary Street, that motto shines through in everything we do, and Pinto is living proof! With his rainbow tail and heart full of joy, he's spreading love (and smiles) wherever he goes. 🌈❤️

We hope this wholesome moment brings you as much joy as it brought us. Because around here, love really is part of the treatment plan. ✨
