Senior Pet Care
Keep Your Senior Pet Feeling Youthful
As pets reach their golden years, their health needs change. At MyVet, we are committed to helping your senior pet stay as happy, healthy, and energetic as possible through attentive preventive care and wellness.
Aging pets benefit greatly from consistent veterinary attention to catch any issues early before they progress. We will partner with you to customize a senior care plan tailored to your pet’s unique needs for their senior years.
Proactive Care for Early Detection
Regular wellness exams become even more crucial for senior pets, allowing us to evaluate your pet’s overall health and functioning thoroughly. We will check them from nose to tail to identify any abnormalities indicating underlying issues.
Routine lab work, like blood tests, only becomes more important as pets age. Tests can uncover hidden conditions early when treatment is most effective.
Optimizing Their Golden Years
Based on your senior pet’s needs, we will suggest customized care to optimize their health and well-being, which may include:
- Dietary changes for weight management or kidney health
- Joint supplements to ease arthritis discomfort
- Medications for cognitive or organ support
- More frequent grooming for skin and coat health
- Adjusting exercise for their declining mobility
Our goal is to nurture your pet’s vitality. With extra attention from you and proactive care from us, the golden years can be an active, engaged time for your senior pet. We look forward to helping provide your companion with the best possible quality of life.
