We welcome clients into our hospital with their pets for appointments!
Our historic building does have a completely modern air system for fresh air inside. While we do not require masks at this time, we welcome both clients and staff to wear a mask if they prefer. Should you prefer not to enter the hospital, we will continue to offer curbside service.
We also offer an outdoor waiting area to allow everyone to spread out if they choose.
We ask that all medication pick-ups call 24 hours ahead so we can try to limit your wait time.
Please drop off any medical samples Monday -Friday between 7:30am and 5:30pm
As always, we are happy to talk to you if any concerns arise.
NEW CLIENTS

Thank you for your interest!
In order to best serve all clients we have instituted a few policies to smooth the transition to our practice.
1- We need your pet's medical record prior to your visit in order to provide best care. Please provide us with either a copy of your records or the name of an animal care facility to contact to get your records at least 48 hours prior to your appointment. If you are unable to get your pet's medical records, we may need to reschedule your visit to offer complete care.
2- Given the high demand for appointments at this time, we now require a $25 "no show" deposit for all new clients. This deposit will be collected when you make your first appointment. The entire amount will be applied to your first visit. Should you elect to cancel your appointment your deposit will be refunded, as long as cancellation happens before the close of business the day prior to your appointment (Monday- Friday 6pm, Saturday 12pm.) If you do not cancel or reschedule before the allotted time and then elect not to come to your scheduled appointment, the $25 will pay the "no show" fee.
It is not our intention to be punitive, with the high demand for appointments, we are attempting to help as many animals as we can each day. Any “no show” appointments are a missed opportunity to help other furry(and scaly) friends.

Our original home was a 1910 Bungalow that was largely destroyed in a fire Thanksgiving weekend 2019. It was torn down in July 2021. We still intend to replace the building once we have a plan that will meet historic district approval.

Dear Dilworth Animal Hospital Family,
Thank you so much for the love and support sent out and expressed to us and our staff. We continue to offer our care and compassion to our patients and clients. We feel that our love of animals and the joy they bring to our lives is the link that brings us together. Thank you for continuing to share your fuzzy family with us.
With Love and Thanks,
Jill and Matthew Wheelock and all of us at Dilworth Animal Hospital
Our Philosophy-
Our philosophy can be summarized in two words: “Compassionate Care.”
This means top quality medicine paired with a sensitivity to the needs of your family. We recognize that there are many factors that come into play for each patient and their family. We strive to listen to and address all of these needs. We take great pride in the amount of time devoted to educating our families. Your family deserves to know why a particular protocol is recommended and what the value of these treatments will be in the long term. We also feel that it is important to help differentiate between what is needed versus what is optimal. We will always treat your “family members” as if they were our very own.
We are honest, hardworking, and very good at the medicine that we practice. We are also ferociously proud that we are able to help and serve our community around us. Mostly we love what we do and we have a fun time doing it!
