Our grooming team put together an adorable video capturing Margot’s full spa day from start to finish!

She’s an absolute beauty, and we had so much fun pampering her.

If your pet could use a spa day too, give us a call a 614-471-2201 to schedule.

Dr. Paula Marrie is at Gahanna Safety Town!

Since the 1980s, Dr. Paula Marrie has proudly volunteered at Gahanna Safety Town, sharing her passion for animals with our youngest community members. Each year, she looks forward to teaching the upcoming kindergarteners how to care for pets and stay safe around unfamiliar animals.

With the help of her lovable standard poodle, Jeorge, Dr. Paula gives hands-on lessons in pet safety. The kids learn three key rules:
1️⃣ Always ask the owner before petting a dog
2️⃣ Offer a closed hand for the dog to sniff
3️⃣ Pet gently under the chin

She also teaches fun safety tricks like how to “stand like a tree” or “lay like a log” if a dog seems aggressive — and the kids love participating!

Dr. Paula’s favorite part of each class is hearing all the funny and unexpected pet stories kids love to share!

This year is extra special — one of our very own team members, Monica, has her daughter Murphy attending Safety Town! (Pictured)

Thank you, Dr. Paula, for your decades of dedication and for helping cultivate a generation of kind, responsible pet lovers! 💛

🐾 Happy Pet Appreciation Week! 🐾

As we celebrate Pet Appreciation Week, we’re shining the spotlight on the incredible team behind the scenes: our Pet Care Specialists!

They are the first to greet our boarders in the morning and the last to tuck them in at night. These compassionate, hardworking team members are a vital part of our hospital family.

Here’s just some of what they do every single day:

🛏️ Provide loving care to every boarded pet — ensuring clean, cozy spaces, fresh food and water, and personalized attention

🐾 Go above and beyond to reduce stress and make each stay feel like home

💬 Quick to notice and report any changes in pet behavior, helping our doctors to address health concerns early

🧹 Keep our hospital clean — from laundry to disinfecting kennels to maintaining common areas

💗 Offer endless patience, kindness, and love — even on the busiest days

They are true animal advocates and multitasking pros, and our entire team is better because of their commitment, strength, and heart.

We truly could not do what we do without them. THANK YOU, kennel team — we see you, we appreciate you, and we’re so lucky to have you. 💙🐶🐱

🐾 Happy World Veterinary Day! 🐾

Today we’re celebrating the incredible veterinarians who give their hearts, minds, and expertise to every patient they see. Your dedication, compassion, and tireless care mean the world to us—and to every pet who walks (or wags!) through our doors.

And while we’re so proud of the work our veterinarians do, they’ll be the first to say how much they appreciate you—our wonderful clients—and the pets you trust us to care for. The bond we share with your furry family members is what makes this work so meaningful.

Here’s to the bond between vet teams, pet parents, and the animals we all love so much. We couldn’t do it without each other!

Emily began her journey at Gahanna Animal Hospital in 2021 as a pet care specialist while attending Columbus State. During her time in tech school, she advanced to the role of veterinary assistant. Just a few days ago, she passed her boards and officially became a registered veterinary technician!

She’s poured her heart into this journey—always dedicated to her patients, committed to growth, and focused on delivering exceptional care. We’re so proud of her and everything she’s accomplished!

Congratulations, Emily RVT!

He’s convinced Dr. Rich’s lap is the perfect spot, no matter how big he is!

Our Story

Husband and wife team, Dr. John Worman and Dr. Paula Marrie, purchased Gahanna Animal Hospital in 1981. The original building had a treatment room/laboratory, hospital ward, small pharmacy, surgical room, and 2 exam rooms. As the hospital began to grow, expansion became a necessity. The hospital underwent a major renovation in 1994 and again in 2005, resulting in our current full-service animal hospital. The facility now has a large treatment area, fully stocked pharmacy, in-house laboratory, hospital ward, isolation room, intensive care unit, surgical suite, grooming facility, doggie daycare area, large boarding facility and 7 exam rooms. The boarding facility is equipped with extra-large runs, indoor/outdoor runs and pet suites with beds and a TV!

Gahanna Animal Hospital now has eight associate veterinarians in addition to the owners. The hospital offers full service wellness care, vaccinations, internal medicine diagnostics, hospitalization, intensive care, radiology, in hospital laboratory, mobile ultrasound, allergy testing, acupuncture, dentals, surgical procedures, long-term case management, behavioral consultations, emergencies, grooming, boarding, puppy classes and doggie daycare.
