Dr. Peppermint, our mischievous Elf on the Shelf, has had a blast spreading holiday cheer here at Animal Care Associates! But it’s time for him to head back to the North Pole to help with last-minute Christmas preparations! ✨🎄❄️

Before he flew off, he left our staff a toilet paper Christmas tree 🎄... because what’s an elf without a little fun and creativity? ✨

Thank you for joining in the holiday magic with us! We’ll miss Dr. Peppermint, but we know he’ll be back next year for more festive fun! 🎅

Wishing you all a safe and happy holiday season! 🎁🎉

🎄🍬 Candy Cane Hunt at Animal Care Associates! 🍬🎄

Dr. Peppermint, our trusty Elf on the Shelf, has been extra naughty this year! Instead of just keeping an eye on things and helping out, he’s decided to have a little fun with our team—by hiding candy canes all around the clinic!

He thought this would be a fun way to reward our staff’s hard work and provide a sweet surprise while they’re busy cleaning!

And don’t forget—Dr. Peppermint is keeping an eye on things... so be sure to be on your best behavior this holiday season! 🎅🎁

🎉 Come in, grab your reindeer food, and spread some holiday cheer!

🐾 Important Update to Our Boarding Policy 🐾
We want to let our wonderful clients know about an update to our boarding policy.
👉 Starting January 1, 2026, we will no longer be providing exams, vaccines, or other medical services while pets are boarding.
This change will help us ensure the safest, most comfortable environment for all boarding guests and allow our medical team to focus fully on appointments scheduled for veterinary care.
Owners must provide proof of current vaccinations from a licensed veterinarian before or at the time of drop-off. Pets without verified, up-to-date records will not be permitted to board until documentation is received.
If your pet needs vaccines or other services, please schedule those before their boarding stay. Our team will be happy to help you find a convenient time!
Thank you for your understanding and continued trust in us to care for your pets. ❤️
