Caring for all animals, because they are family
At Fort Hunt Animal Hospital, we are dedicated to providing excellent care for all animals. Our mission is to serve the community by serving the pets who call it home. As a full-service animal hospital, we offer a variety of animal care services for pets at all stages of development and in all health conditions. From initial wellness visits and vaccinations to end of life care and all points between, we are here to ensure that your pet has access to an experienced, compassionate, and caring veterinarian in Alexandria for all its needs.
Our Philosophy
We understand that pets are family and they come in many different shapes and sizes. In addition to traditional household pets, like cats and dogs, we offer specialized care for avians along with other pet types as well. We even make non-surgical house calls in some situations if animals require it. Our philosophy is to serve the community by serving the pets who call it home.
Services We Offer
At Fort Hunt Animal Hospital, we offer a wide range of services to our pet patients. Our first service, though, is to offer them a stress-free environment for their examinations. We go to great lengths to make our facilities inviting to the pets who visit from our carefully selected staff members to our team of professionals responsible for the care of your pets. Other services we offer include:
Wellness care
Preventative treatments (flea, tick, and heartworm preventatives, spaying and neutering, pet dental services, etc.)
Vaccinations
In-house diagnostic services
Bloodwork
Microchipping
Pain management
Radiology
Pet nutrition
We practice fear-free techniques for our pet patients (and their owners) and also offer boarding and grooming services. At Fort Hunt Animal Hospital, we take pet wellness seriously. We believe the best way to lengthen the lives of our pets is with excellent care from the beginning. From the first visit, your pet becomes part of our family. We'll treat your pet like family, providing exceptional care, heaping mounds of affection upon them, and giving you, as the pet's owner, the basic tools you need to create a healthy home for your pet.
