VCA Seaside Animal Hospital Doggone healthy was created for pets and people because we love dogs, cats and the people who care for them.

It is our passion to educate others on how to help your pet live a long, healthy and happy life. Our mission is to improve the social, emotional, dietary and fitness needs of dogs and cats. Our medical philosophy is focused on disease prevention through nutritional and lifestyle strategies. If you’re as crazy about dogs and cats as we are, I’m sure you’ll find Doggone Healthy to be your pet’s home away from home. If we ever fail to live up to our promises, let us know. Our goal is to help you become the best pet parent you can be by providing you with the best service possible. Let us guide you on diet, exercise, behavior and grooming issues.

43 years of compassion, leadership, and love for the animals and families he serves. 💙

We're celebrating Dr. Steve Thatcher, Medical Director at VCA Marina Bay Cities, who has dedicated over four decades to his patients, his community, and the veterinary professionals he's mentored along the way.

As VCA marks its 40th anniversary, we're so grateful for the doctors, technicians, and care teams who make this profession truly special. Dr. Thatcher is the heart of what that means.

Thank you for everything, Dr. Thatcher. Here's to you. 🎉

Meet Chase — and the doctor who helped him get back to himself. 🐶❤️

When Chase was diagnosed with a bleeding heart tumor, Dr. Denitz used cutting-edge radiation therapy to treat the tumor and restore Chase's quality of life.

Same technology. Same precision. Same care used in top human hospitals — tailored just for Chase.

By the end of treatment, Chase was walking into his appointments all on his own. No leash needed. 🥹
This National Pet Cancer Awareness Month, we celebrate the pets who fight hard — and the VCA specialists who fight right alongside them.
