✨ Locally obsessed with pets.

WAG Vet isn't part of a giant corporation.

We're a neighborhood veterinary hospital built by people who actually live here, work here, and care about the families in this community.

That means when you walk through our doors, you're not a number.

You're not a transaction.

You're not being rushed through an appointment so we can hit some goal set by a guy in New Jersey.

You're a pet parent who loves your animal.

And we're animal people who get it.

Simple as that.

If you've been looking for a veterinary team that combines great medicine with great people...

Welcome to WAG.

We've been saving you a spot. 💜

🐕 Pet Parent Superpower: Knowing When Something Isn't Right

You may not know what your dog's bloodwork means.

You may not know why your cat suddenly decided the litter box is optional.

But you DO know your pet.

And if your gut is telling you something feels off?

Listen to it.

Most of the pets we see didn't send a formal announcement that something was wrong.

Their people just noticed:

👀 "He's quieter than usual."
👀 "She's not eating."
👀 "Something just seems weird."

Trust yourself.

If you're worried, we'd rather talk to you early than see you panic later.

📞 Give us a call. That's literally what we're here for.

Busy pet parent?
Chaotic calendar?
Zero room for “sit in a lobby at 2 PM” energy?

Say less. ✨

WAG Vet offers **drop-off appointments** for pet parents who need great care without rearranging their entire day.

You drop them off.
We love them up.
Our team checks them out.
We keep you updated every step of the way.

And yes, you still make all the decisions.

Because convenient care should still feel personal.

🚨 Columbia, we need to talk. 🚨

Somehow, a bunch of y'all think we're just an urgent care.

Respectfully...

That's fake news. 😏

Sure, we're here Tuesday-Friday evenings and Saturdays when your pet decides to have a crisis at the most inconvenient time possible.

But we're also here for:

🐾 Wellness exams
🐾 Vaccines
🐾 Puppy shenanigans
🐾 Senior pet TLC
🐾 Sick visits
🐾 Surgery
🐾 All the things

So if you've been driving past WAG thinking, "That's the emergency place..."

Plot twist.

We'd love to be your regular vet, too.

✨ Main Character Energy: Dr. Terrance Hunter ✨

You know that person who somehow makes you feel like you're the only one in the room?

Yeah. That's Dr. Hunter.

Before opening WAG Vet, Dr. Hunter spent years in urgent care helping worried pet parents through some really scary situations. Along the way, he earned a reputation for taking care of both ends of the leash.

Because here's the thing:

Taking care of pets is important.

Taking care of the humans attached to them is too.

That's why WAG was built differently.

More conversations.
More answers.
More compassion.
Way less feeling like you're being rushed out the door.

If you're looking for a veterinarian who will actually sit down, listen, and help you make the best decisions for your pet, you've found your people.

🐾❤️ Some heroes wear capes. Some wear scrubs.

Leo's family came to us during one of the scariest moments a pet parent can face, and we're beyond grateful to share that this little fighter is back home, healthy, happy, and thriving. 🎉🐱

Here's the thing—we don't just treat patients. We treat family.

That means keeping you in the loop with updates, sharing those heart-melting recovery videos, answering your questions, and making sure you feel supported every step of the way. Because when your pet is in our care, you're part of the team, too.

Hearing that Leo's family trusted us through such a difficult journey—and that they felt informed, cared for, and confident throughout the process—means everything to us.

To Leo: Keep causing adorable chaos. 😻

To his parents: Thank you for trusting Dr. Hunter and the WAG crew with your precious boy.

And to every pet parent out there: Whether it's a routine checkup, a sudden illness, or an urgent care situation, we're here when you need us most. 💙

🚨 When your pet decides to keep life interesting after hours, we've got you covered. 🐾💙

Winston stopped by for an urgent care visit, and while he may have been a little unsure at first, our team made sure he felt safe, comfortable, and cared for every step of the way.

⭐️ "Just had the best urgent care experience this evening. Had a little scare and the Doc saved the day!" - Jennifer S.

That's exactly why we're here — providing compassionate care when you need it most, whether it's a routine wellness visit or an unexpected evening emergency.

We're honored that Winston's family chose WAG Vet for urgent care and even more excited they've made us their veterinary home for everyday care, too. 🏡🐶

Thanks for trusting Dr. Hunter and the WAG crew with your sweet boy. And yes... that wall photo is pretty paw-some. 📸✨

🐾 Got a Busy Day? We've Got You. 🐾

Trying to squeeze a vet visit between meetings, school pickup, errands, and life in general? That's where drop off appointments come in. ✨

With a drop off appointment, you can bring your pet to WAG Vet in the morning, head off to conquer your day, and let our team take care of the rest.

💙❤️ Why pet parents love drop off appointments:

🐕 Less waiting around in the exam room

⏰ More flexibility for your schedule

😍 Lets your furry friends get comfortable in our space

🩺 Gives our veterinarians extra time to perform exams, diagnostics, and treatments as needed

📞 You'll still receive updates and recommendations from our team before any additional services are performed

🚗 Easy drop off, easy pick up

Whether your pet needs a wellness visit, isn't feeling their best, or needs diagnostics, a drop off appointment can be a stress free solution for both of you.

Ready to make your day a little easier? Give us a call and ask for a drop off appointment!
