Vaccinations
Vaccinations protect pets against life-threatening illnesses and diseases transmissible to humans. Core vaccines include rabies, distemper, and feline viral rhinotracheitis. We recommend vaccinations for puppies, kittens, and adult pets based on age, health, and lifestyle. Our veterinarians advise on required and non-core vaccines, ensuring compliance with local regulations and safeguarding community health.
Surgery
Our surgical suite offers routine and complex procedures using safe anesthetic protocols and CO2 laser technology for reduced pain and faster healing. Services include spays/neuters, lumpectomies, ear hematomas, and abdominal exploratories. Certified technicians monitor pets throughout surgery, ensuring optimal safety and recovery outcomes for dogs and cats.
Senior Wellness
Senior wellness exams track aging pets' health through bi-annual checkups and blood tests. We monitor kidney, liver, and thyroid function, perform dental exams, and address cognitive dysfunction. Early disease detection and tailored treatment plans help maintain comfort and quality of life for pets seven years and older.
Microchipping
Microchipping provides permanent identification for pets, with a 25-year lifespan and no need for recharging. Implanted chips are scanned to locate owners, reuniting over 15,000 lost pets monthly. We emphasize updated contact information for effectiveness, offering a safe alternative to collars that can fall off.
Grooming
Professional grooming includes nail trims, ear cleaning, anal gland expression, and de-shedding. Our groomer identifies medical issues during sessions and maintains pet hygiene. Appointments are available Monday-Friday, requiring current rabies and distemper vaccinations for safety.

My kitten suddenly could not open his eye, my usual vet could not get me in. So I called around until I reached Rochelle Vet. Hospital. Not only were they able to get me in, they were extremely friendly and professional. The facility itself is very nice and the atmosphere is great. I did not have to wait long to be seen. The vet was very thorough, finding a yeast infection in his ears as well. When there were two treatment options, I asked for the cost difference. The vet was so understanding and took the time to see what the costs would be. (Costs were very reasonable) My kitten is doing great

Will never use this place again. All they want to do is take as much money from you as possible under the guise of caring for your pets. Up sold a 19 year old kid to a laser surgery procedure that was dramatically more expensive without parental permission on the premise that is was "less invasive and painless." Identified a very bad flea problem on said cat, but did not treat or bathe him, but were very quick to send us home with 150$ worth of FRONTLINE, knowing very well that Frontline is a trash product that does not prevent or deter fleas and ticks, only kills them if they feed on the animal
