Caring Hands Animal Hospital - Ashburn

We provide comprehensive physical exams to monitor your pet’s overall health, detect issues early, and tailor personalized care for every stage of life. For senior pets, we recommend twice-yearly exams that include fecal testing, lab work, and age-specific assessments to ensure proactive health management.

We offer customized wellness packages for puppies and kittens, including vaccination plans, parasite prevention, nutritional guidance, and educational resources for puppy/kitten socialization. Our team provides 4-week follow-ups to monitor growth and development and offers spay/neuter packages with discounted rates to support long-term health.

Our Senior Pet Wellness Care includes tailored health plans, with recommended twice-yearly exams, lab work, and proactive management of age-related conditions. We also provide the P.A.W.S. (Pets Aging With Style) program, which offers discounted services and early detection tools to keep senior pets comfortable and thriving.

We administer core vaccinations such as Rabies (required by Virginia state law), Distemper, and Parvo (as part of DHPP for dogs and FVRCP for cats). These vaccines are critical for protecting your pet from highly contagious and often fatal diseases and are administered according to individual and breed-specific needs.

We provide year-round heartworm testing and prevention programs using trusted treatments like Heartgard, Interceptor, or Revolution. Our recommendations are based on your pet’s environment (indoor/outdoor exposure) and include monthly oral or topical medications to protect against this potentially fatal mosquito-borne disease.

We recommend and dispense flea and tick preventatives year-round, such as Nexgard, Simparica, or Bravecto, to safeguard your pet against parasites that can cause itching, allergies, or serious diseases like Lyme. Indoor pets are also at risk, as fleas/ticks can hitchhike inside via human footwear or clothing.

We offer personalized nutritional counseling to align your pet’s diet with their life stage, activity level, and health conditions. This includes weight management plans, tailored meal suggestions, and guidance on dietary supplements to support optimal metabolism and longevity.

We provide intestinal parasite deworming treatments to eliminate tapeworms, roundworms, and hookworms, which can lead to gastrointestinal issues or secondary infections. Routine fecal testing informs our deworming recommendations to ensure effective parasite control.

As part of puppy/kitten care, we offer behavioral counseling, including advice on house training, crate socialization, and positive reinforcement techniques. Our team is also available to address age-specific behavioral concerns, such as senior pet confusion or anxiety.

We perform comprehensive bloodwork, including Complete Blood Counts (CBC) and chemistry panels, to monitor organ function, detect hidden illnesses, and support diagnostics during wellness visits or intensive care stays. Senior pets receive bloodwork as part of their semi-annual exams.

Urinalysis is included in our senior pet exams and diagnostic workups to screen for kidney disease, urinary tract infections, diabetes, or bladder stones. Early detection allows us to implement targeted treatments to preserve your pet’s quality of life.

We routinely perform fecal testing to screen for intestinal parasites, worms, and indicators of gastrointestinal health. For senior or at-risk pets, this testing is a standard part of preventive care to ensure timely intervention if parasites are detected.

Our advanced digital radiography allows for prompt and accurate diagnoses of bone fractures, dental issues, or internal abnormalities. Dental X-rays are integrated into our dental cleanings to detect hidden oral problems that aren't visible during a physical exam.

We offer ultrasound imaging to evaluate internal organs, identify heart or kidney disease, and monitor pregnancies. Our in-house diagnostic tools enable faster treatment planning for conditions like urinary blockages or organ enlargement.

Dental radiography is a staple of our comprehensive cleanings, revealing issues like periodontal disease or fractures below the gumline not visible to the naked eye. Addressing these problems early preserves your pet’s oral health and comfort.

We perform tooth extractions for severe decay, fractured teeth, or advanced periodontal disease. Our team uses advanced techniques to minimize discomfort and heal oral tissues, ensuring a smooth recovery for your pet.

We handle oral surgical procedures like frenulectomy, biopsy sampling, and correcting cleft palates. Laser-assisted surgeries are available when applicable, reducing bleeding and promoting faster healing compared to traditional methods.

Our periodontal disease treatments include scaling, root planing, and oral medications to reverse gum disease and preserve oral health. We prioritize at-home dental care education to help you maintain clean teeth between cleanings.

We perform spay and neuter surgeries with advanced monitoring and pain management to ensure your pet’s safety and comfort. We also offer discounted packages for spay/neuter procedures as part of our puppy/kitten wellness programs.

We can remove foreign objects ingested or embedded in your pet, using diagnostics like radiographs or ultrasounds to guide safe extraction. Prompt removal is critical to prevent internal damage or infections.

Our team evaluates and repairs wounds/lacerations using sterile techniques, sutures, or surgical adhesives. We monitor for infection and provide pain management to support healing, especially for deep or contaminated injuries.

During hospitalization, we provide 24/7 monitoring for pets requiring intensive care—whether for GI upset, kidney disease, or urinary blockages. Our team administers IV fluids, medications, and supplemental oxygen as needed to stabilize your pet’s condition.

We administer oxygen therapy during hospitalization or for chronic respiratory issues to improve saturation and expedite recovery. Oxygen can be provided via cages or masks, depending on your pet’s condition and comfort level.

IV fluids are administered during hospitalization to correct dehydration, support organ function, or deliver medications. Our intensive care team closely regulates fluid therapy to ensure rapid recovery, especially in cases of surgery or toxin exposure.

We provide customized pain management protocols before, during, and after procedures, including postoperative care, chronic conditions, or injuries. Services include laser therapy, acupuncture, and massage, alongside traditional medications to improve your pet’s comfort.

In cases of toxic ingestion (e.g., chocolate, lilies, rodents), we provide emergency decontamination (e.g., IV fluids, activated charcoal) and symptomatic care to detoxify and stabilize affected pets, often in collaboration with toxicology specialists.

Medical grooming includes services like sanitary shaves, nail trimming (using a dremel), anal gland expression, and medicated baths for skin conditions. These are often recommended for pets with mobility issues or medical concerns requiring specialized care.

We perform sanitary shaves to keep pets clean and promote healing, especially for those with fecal incontinence or hair mats interfering with hygiene. This is a common service for older pets or those recovering from surgery.

Our team provides safe nail trims and dremeling to prevent overgrowth, discomfort, or mobility issues in pets. We tailor this service to your pet’s needs, especially in intensive care or for geriatric patients.

We routinely express anal glands as needed to relieve discomfort or abscesses in pets that suffer from constipation or anal gland impaction. This service is often paired with medical baths or diagnostic exams if symptoms persist.

As part of integrative pain management, we offer acupuncture to relieve arthritis, post-surgical discomfort, and chronic pain conditions. Our techniques are tailored to complement traditional therapies for optimal recovery.

Cold laser therapy is used to reduce inflammation, accelerate tissue healing, and alleviate pain for orthopedic, dental, or surgical wounds. This minimally invasive treatment enhances mobility and comfort while minimizing reliance on medications.

Our rehabilitation programs include physical therapy exercises, hydrotherapy (underwater treadmills), and passive stretching to restore mobility after injuries or surgeries. We provide personalized plans to strengthen muscles and reduce recovery time.
