Proactive Healthcare for Pets
Our Services
What We Do
Dental Care
Full Service Animal Hospital in La Verne, CA
Our pet hospital offers the following services for dogs and cats of all breeds, ages, medical conditions and lifestyles:

Dental Care
Many pet owners are surprised to learn how much their pet’s oral health impacts their overall quality of life. Plaque and calculus buildup isn’t just a cosmetic issue; it can lead to serious health complications over time. Routine dental cleanings and examinations are key to keeping your pet healthy at every stage of life.
Pet Depot Veterinary Group provides comprehensive Pomona veterinary dental care, including cleanings and extractions, tailored to your pet’s specific needs. Our team approaches every appointment with the attention and care your pet deserves. Investing in your pet’s oral health today helps protect their overall health tomorrow.
Vaccine Clinic
Indoor pets still need core vaccines, and older pets benefit from staying current too. Many pet owners are unaware that even lifestyle changes or a missed booster can leave their pet vulnerable to preventable diseases. Our vaccine clinic helps you stay informed and keep your pet protected, no matter their age or lifestyle.
Our veterinary team takes the time to review your pet’s full history and recommend the right vaccines based on their specific needs and risk factors. Pet Depot Veterinary Group also offers guidance on what to expect after vaccinations and how to handle any mild side effects at home. Keeping your pet up to date has never been easier.
Urgent Care
Recognizing a true urgent care situation can be hard in the moment, especially when your pet cannot communicate what they are feeling. Conditions like eye problems, severe vomiting, allergic reactions, and breathing difficulties all qualify as situations that need same-day attention. Trusting your instincts and acting quickly is always the right call.
Pet Depot Veterinary Group offers same-day urgent care appointments so your pet can be seen without unnecessary delays. Our veterinary team will triage your pet, run the appropriate diagnostics, and put a treatment plan in place right away. We are here to give you clear answers and your pet the care they need.
Injury
Animal bites, cuts, and trauma injuries can worsen quickly without proper veterinary attention. Wounds that appear minor on the surface can involve deeper tissue damage that requires professional care to heal correctly. Bringing your pet in as soon as possible after an injury is always the safest choice.
Our veterinary team at Pet Depot Veterinary Group is experienced in laceration repair and soft tissue surgery for all kinds of injuries. Every treatment plan is built around the full extent of the damage and focused on healing and comfort. Your pet is in capable and caring hands every step of the way.
TPLO
A cruciate ligament tear is a serious injury that affects a dog’s ability to walk, run, and enjoy everyday life. Left untreated, progressive joint damage and chronic pain can worsen significantly over time. TPLO surgery offers a reliable solution that directly addresses the structural cause of instability.
Pet Depot Veterinary Group has a veterinary surgical suite fully equipped to perform orthopedic procedures like TPLO safely and effectively. Our team supports your dog through recovery with the same expertise and compassion we bring to every surgery. We’re here to help your dog get back to their happy, active self.
Spay and Neuter
Early, proactive decisions can have a lasting impact on your pet’s health and comfort as they age. Spay and neuter procedures reduce the risk of uterine infections in female pets and can lower the likelihood of certain reproductive cancers in both dogs and cats. Our veterinary team is here to make sure the experience is as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Pet Depot Veterinary Group performs these surgeries in a fully sterile surgical suite with careful attention to every detail. Our team guides pet owners through what to expect before and after the procedure so there are no surprises. A safe, comfortable surgery today sets your pet up for a healthier tomorrow.
Why Choose Us
Good Pomona veterinary care goes beyond treating symptoms. It means knowing your pet, understanding your concerns, and showing up the same way at every visit. At Pet Depot Veterinary Group, we built a practice around what matters most to pet owners: expertise you can count on, staff who show up consistently, and a genuine dedication to getting it right every time.

Specialized Surgical Care Close to Home
Board-trained surgical expertise is built into our team and available to every patient who needs it. We perform TPLO orthopedic procedures, soft tissue surgeries, mass removals, and laceration repairs in our on-site sterile surgical suite, with a dedicated surgical team present for every case. We tailor anesthetic protocols to each animal, and we plan pain management before the procedure, not after. Pet owners in La Verne and the surrounding area have a resource here that handles complex surgical cases with the depth and preparation those cases require.
A Consistent Team That Tracks Your Pet’s Health Over Time
Pets are not interchangeable patients, and their care should reflect that. Our team keeps detailed records of each animal’s individual history, including how they respond to handling, what their lab values look like at baseline, and which health trends have emerged over time. That information shapes how we approach every appointment. A pet who has been coming here for years benefits from providers who already understand their full picture. That familiarity isn’t incidental; we maintain it through low staff turnover and consistent scheduling practices.
Prompt Communication So You Are Never Left Waiting
After an appointment, a procedure, or a diagnostic workup, you should not have to wonder what happens next. Our team follows up proactively; we explain results in plain language, schedule follow-up check-ins, and have the right person respond promptly to any questions you bring between visits. Our front desk and clinical staff operate as a connected unit, which means questions get routed accurately and answered fully rather than sitting in a queue. We treat communication between appointments with the same seriousness as the exam itself.
Comprehensive Veterinary Medicine All in One Place
Wellness exams, urgent care, dental cleanings, diagnostic imaging, bloodwork, surgery, laser therapy, and prescription nutrition are all handled here, with our team having full access to your pet’s complete care history. Our in-house laboratory processes results during your visit, so we make decisions based on real data without unnecessary delays. We stock prescription food options on-site and can special-order them as needed. Coordinated care in one location means fewer gaps, fewer transfers, and a cleaner picture of your pet’s overall well-being at every stage.
Compassionate Care That Is Personal by Design
Being privately owned means our practice sets its own standards, built around giving each client and their pet the time the situation calls for. Appointments are not rushed to meet a daily quota. Complicated diagnoses get thorough explanations. Anxious animals get a slower, more patient pace that matches their needs. Across every type of visit, the approach stays consistent: attentive, honest, and adjusted to fit the individual rather than the schedule.
Our Clients Say…
Meet the Team
Behind every exam, procedure, and follow-up call is a group of people who take their work seriously and genuinely care about the animals they see. Our veterinarians bring focused expertise in areas like internal medicine, pain management, urgent care, and palliative care, giving our practice the range to handle both routine wellness visits and more complex medical situations. Our registered veterinary technicians work hands-on throughout every appointment, collecting lab samples, assisting in surgery, and monitoring patients through recovery. Our Pomona veterinary assistants keep things running smoothly and make sure every pet feels settled from the moment they walk in. A shared approach ties our team together: take time, communicate clearly, and treat every patient as an individual. That is the standard we hold ourselves to, and it is one our clients notice and count on.

FAQs
How does having an in-house lab benefit my pet's care?
Our on-site laboratory lets us run blood work, urinalysis, and other diagnostics during your visit and get results back quickly, often the same day. That speed matters when your pet is unwell and waiting for answers feels impossible. Faster results lead to faster decisions, and that can make a meaningful difference in your pet’s outcome.
What happens if my pet needs care outside of regular office hours?
We maintain a dedicated after-hours emergency care resource to help guide you if an urgent situation arises outside of our regular hours. Our team will point you to the right level of care so your pet is never left without direction. Clear guidance in a stressful moment, from a practice you already know, goes a long way.
Do you offer any resources or programs for new puppy and kitten owners?
Yes, we have dedicated puppy and kitten packages designed to give young pets the best possible start. These visits cover early vaccinations, parasite prevention, nutrition guidance, and a thorough physical exam to establish your new pet’s baseline health. It is also a great opportunity to ask questions and get comfortable with our team early on.
What can I expect after my pet has surgery at your practice?
Our team provides attentive post-operative monitoring and clear aftercare instructions so you feel confident caring for your pet at home. We follow up after procedures to check in on recovery and remain available if concerns come up between visits. That continued support makes the healing process smoother and less stressful for both you and your pet.
How does your team support pets through pain or end-of-life care?
Our team has a special interest in pain management, pet hospice, and palliative care, areas that are often overlooked but deeply important to a pet’s quality of life. A pet recovering from surgery and one entering their final chapter both receive the same level of compassion and honest guidance. You will never feel alone as you navigate those decisions, and neither will your pet.
