About Our Hospital
Rootstown Veterinary Hospital is a full-service, AAHA-accredited practice where high-quality medicine meets a genuine family feel. Since opening our doors in 2013, we have been dedicated to offering the best value in veterinary care through advanced surgical, diagnostic, and medical technology—all while maintaining the personal touch of a privately owned clinic.
Our Philosophy of Care
We understand that a pet is more than just an animal; they are a beloved member of the family. That’s why we’ve designed our facility to be a one-stop resource for the community, providing quality care, and fair service prices. We strive to create an environment where clients feel heard and "fur babies" feel safe.
Driven by Teamwork & Culture
We believe that exceptional patient care begins with a supported and happy team. At Rootstown, we prioritize a positive work-life balance, foster an inclusive environment, and make sure there is always room for laughter (and plenty of dog kisses) throughout the day. We aren't just colleagues; we are a dedicated group of professionals who truly enjoy working together.
Heart for the Community
Our commitment to animals extends beyond our clinic walls. We are incredibly proud of our long-standing partnership with Rose’s Rescue. We have worked hand-in-hand with this amazing organization to provide medical care and support for cats and dogs on their journey to finding their fur-ever homes.
