Healthy pets are happy pets. This is not just a motto at
Care-Pets, but a cornerstone of our practice. A conviction
held by the doctors, technicians and assistants; one pet owners can
trust in.
The Care-Pets
Animal Hospital Team!
Care-Pets Animal Hospital and Wellness Center was founded on
this very philosophy by Joan V. Evinger, D.V.M., Care-Pets current
owner. Dr. Evinger wanted to practice the best veterinary
care in an environment comfortable for both pets and owners.
On March 16, 1987, Care-Pets Animal Hospital opened its doors at
7610 Old State Road 60 in Sellersburg, Indiana.
It was not long before Care-Pets began to grow, and the need for
more space became apparent. In October 2001, Care-Pets Animal
Hospital moved down the road to its current location at 8800 Old
State Road 60. This new facility provided much needed
additional space. The spacious lobby and four exam rooms were
designed with the comfort of our patients, clients, and staff in
mind. The new facility also provided the necessary space to
accommodate all of our specialized diagnostic procedures including
a surgery suite, radiology, and lab to name a few.

In 2008, Dr. Laura Elkins joined the Care-Pets team. Her
interest in reptile and small mammal medicine complements Dr.
Evinger's interest in avian medicine, and once again is helping
Care-Pets expand its services to meet all our clients' companion
animal needs. Dr. Evinger and Dr. Elkins are committed to
practicing excellent veterinary medicine in caring for your beloved
dogs, cats, birds, reptiles and small mammals.
Today, Care-Pets Animal Hospital is continually expanding the
practice to include the latest state-of-the-art diagnostics and
treatments in veterinary medicine. Our staff continues to
strive to bring you the highest quality and professional veterinary
care for all your furry, feathered, and scaly companions.
After all, at Care-Pets, your pets are our
pets.
