We're so grateful for all the talented pet resort managers, groomers, trainers, and care staff in our community! This week, NVA welcomed our 100th pet resort. To celebrate, a few of our senior leaders created this special message for all the remarkable people whose work brings happiness to pets and peace of mind to pet parents. ❤️
There are many cases that tug at our hearts here at NVA.

Piff’s hoping no one will notice he’s not a baby kangaroo (the pouch is comfy and he likes to stay close by). “Whatever it takes to make Piff happy,” said the team at Ehrlich Animal Hospital. “Over and beyond care is what we strive to provide.”

“Lately, we’re so busy we barely have time to get into the holiday spirit,” said Dr. Gerards of West Hills Animal Hospital. “So our receptionist Liz went to the store on her break and came back with these holiday outfits for our pups at work! They made us all smile, laugh, and de-stress – which made the day (and our work) fly by. It’s simple actions like this that remind us just how amazing our staff is and much they LOOOOOOVE animals.” 🐾❄️⛄️

Sometimes, a little bribery goes a long way. Kitty patient Amy felt more cooperative once Lead Tech Sarah brought out the Easy Cheese. "We use cheese for our canine patients during their appointments as a way to distract and reward," says the team at Advanced PetCare of Oakland. "Amy here zoned in on the bottle and started to purr! (Please note we only allowed her to clean off the tip of the can!)" 😹

At a Houston warming shelter, Dr. Amy Lowe paid a visit to check in on the pets. “She’s working with the city’s animal care and control to make sure everyone is OK (the 4-legged ones),” said her team. Sending warm thoughts to all our Texas friends and everyone suffering from this winter storm. ❤️
