Who We Are

A Legacy of Compassionate Care

Since 1971, Care Animal Hospital has been proud to serve the pets and people of Arlington Heights and the surrounding northwest suburbs. Our hospital was built on a simple belief: every pet deserves exceptional veterinary care and every family deserves support, honesty, and compassion.

Over the decades, we’ve grown with our community—expanding our services, deepening our relationships, and investing in the latest medical advancements to ensure your pet’s care is second to none.

Family-Focused Veterinary Care

We’re more than a veterinary hospital—we’re your neighbors, your partners, and often, your pet’s second family. Our doctors and care team live and work in this community. We’ve cared for generations of pets, shared in thousands of happy homecomings, and supported families through every stage of their pet’s life.

Introducing the Care Animal Hospital Veterinary Surgery Center

As part of our continued commitment to great outcomes, we created the Care Animal Hospital Veterinary Surgery Center—a specialized extension of our hospital focused on advanced surgical care. From complex procedures to minimally invasive techniques, our surgical team offers expert care with an emphasis on accessibility, compassion, and results.

We know specialty care can feel out of reach or overwhelming. Our goal is to change that—by making it local, personal, and fair.

Our Mission

To save and improve animal lives by delivering outstanding medical and surgical care, compassionate service, and accessible pricing—because every pet deserves the opportunity to thrive.

Whether you’re new to the area or have been with us for years, we’re honored to be your partner in your pet’s health. Let’s talk about how we can support your pet’s wellbeing—today and in the years ahead.
