Ah, the warm, fuzzy feeling of integrative pet care at home
Why does it feel so good, so right?
Less stress. More convenience. More options. And you and your pets are so much more comfortable! Integrative house calls allow me to get a whole picture of your pets, their environment, and how they behave and react in their environment. That helps me address their emotional and mental health in addition to their physical wellbeing. It makes a world of difference in the effectiveness of any treatment plan.

My goals: to strengthen your bond with your pet, restore your faith and trust in veterinary medicine, and empower you to make informed choices about your pet’s healthcare.

Traditional pet care
I want your pet to have more than just standard prescriptions and generic supplements. I’m experienced and knowledgeable in traditional medicine; I’ll always tell you when I believe traditional treatments are best. Of course, I’m here to inform and guide you — never to pressure or judge.

Nutrition consults & botanical medicine
If you’re interested, I’d love to discuss some detailed nutritional recommendations to optimize your pet’s health. Plant-based remedies can offer a wide range of benefits for our pets, from supporting overall wellness to assisting during cancer treatment— and much more in between.

Medical massage, reiki, and more
Medical massage differs from the traditional “spa” massage: it begins with a thorough evaluation and diagnosis. Reiki, which loosely translates to “spiritually guided life force energy,” is a gentle form of Japanese energy healing that reduces stress, and promotes overall wellness.
kind words from beautiful humans
“thank you so much”
“My husband and I were calling for our dog on a Sunday afternoon because our dog was acting sad, yelping and his tummy was so tight. Dr. Ogg, thank you so much for looking at our baby. He is now resting at home.”
— Kate K., happy client
“compassion… she’s straightforward”
“Dr. Ogg treats her clients and their pets with compassion and a no nonsense attitude. You’ll never have to guess what you think she means, she’s straightforward. She [can] explain even the most complex process in a way I can easily understand.”
— Adrianne B., happy client
“she made me confident”
“This vet is extremely knowledgeable and helped me so much preparing for my new puppy. I have never owned my own dog before and had so many questions. She was patient… She made me feel a lot more confident and comfortable!”
— Hope O., happy client
