Services
Wellness Care
Our comprehensive wellness programs include annual physical exams, developmental monitoring for puppies/kittens, and senior pet health screenings. Each visit features detailed health assessments, vaccination planning, and early disease detection through bloodwork. We tailor care schedules to each pet's life stage, recommending 3-4 week intervals for young animals and annual checkups for adults.
Vaccinations
We provide core and lifestyle-based vaccination plans for dogs and cats, including rabies, distemper, and feline leukemia vaccines. Our team creates customized schedules considering each pet's environment and travel needs. Proper storage and administration by licensed veterinarians ensures maximum protection while meeting all state legal requirements for rabies immunization.
Dental Care
Our dental services feature complete oral assessments under anesthesia, ultrasonic scaling, and digital X-rays to detect hidden periodontal disease. The process includes tooth polishing, extraction when necessary, and preventive care education. Annual COHAT procedures help prevent systemic infections that can affect heart, liver, and kidney health through untreated dental issues.
Surgery
Offering both routine and advanced surgical procedures with comprehensive pre-anesthetic bloodwork and monitoring. Our modern surgical suite handles spays/neuters, tumor removals, and emergency interventions with IV catheters, pain management, and post-operative care. Procedures follow strict fasting protocols and include detailed discharge instructions for optimal recovery.
In-House Diagnostics
Rapid diagnostic capabilities include heartworm testing, complete blood counts, and urinalysis with on-site processing. We complement these with digital X-ray imaging and ultrasound technology for internal organ assessment. This equipment enables quick diagnosis of conditions ranging from urinary tract infections to gastrointestinal obstructions, supporting timely treatment decisions.

I had a great experience at this Vet's office. My regular Vet did not have any openings to get our new puppy in for her shots. They gladly scheduled her in for the next day. Everyone from the front office, to the Vet and Everyone in between were extremely nice and very helpful. If I didn't already have a Vet that I had been using for years, I would definitely go here. Highly recommend!

I needed a new vet for my girl, Kiki Mia and we were warmly welcomed at Indy Paws. I have taken her twice so far and they give her the best of care. Everyone has been friendly, knowledgeable and professional, from the front desk to the doctors.

Today was a not a good day. Had to put my dog Emma down today. They gave me choices for her. But Emma lived a good life.

After years of avoiding it, I finally took my terrier in to have his teeth cleaned. I was very nervous to put my dog under anesthesia, but the staff were so kind and reassuring and took wonderful care of my little guy on his big day. Its obvious everyone there cares about what they do & enjoy working with animals, even antsy dogs like mine! Hes been going to Indy Paws since he was pup & I wouldnt dream of taking him elsewhere!
