Services
Wellness Exams
Regular wellness exams help detect early signs of illness and ensure your pet's long-term health. Our veterinarians conduct thorough physical assessments, discuss dietary needs, and recommend preventive care tailored to your pet's life stage. This proactive approach maintains optimal health and strengthens the human-pet bond through informed care decisions.
Dental Care
Professional dental exams and cleanings prevent oral diseases that can lead to systemic health issues. We use advanced techniques to remove tartar buildup, assess gum health, and educate owners on home care routines. Early intervention ensures pets maintain comfortable, functional mouths throughout their lives.
Vaccinations
Vaccinations protect pets from preventable diseases through customized schedules based on age, lifestyle, and risk factors. Our team explains core and non-core vaccine benefits, ensuring informed decisions while maintaining compliance with local regulations for boarding and travel.
Surgery
Our surgical services range from routine spay/neuter procedures to emergency interventions. We employ modern anesthetic protocols, advanced monitoring equipment, and post-operative pain management to ensure patient safety and comfort during recovery from both elective and urgent procedures.
Acupuncture
Veterinary acupuncture addresses chronic pain, mobility issues, and recovery from injuries through traditional Chinese medicine techniques. This non-invasive treatment stimulates healing processes and improves quality of life for pets with conditions like arthritis or neurological disorders, complementing conventional medical approaches.

Happy Pets was our Vet until we moved to New York 7 year ago. We came back to the area and Happy Pets is once again our Vet - and they still give the same care, love and attention to their patients! 06/07/2022: And we will miss the team when we move to Orlando Florida at the end of this month.

Everyone at this vet office is absolutely amazing! They truly care about the animals and their customer service is the best I have ever experienced out of any vet in the LA area. Lovely people and very helpful. We are so happy to have found Happy Pets and everyone at this office should be proud of the wonderful job they do serving the animals of SCV!

I recently adopted two little ones from shelters and I take them to Dr. Baker. He has been super friendly and follows through on everything. He had a concern with a vaccine one received and went well beyond looking into it and getting back to us. All the staff has been super friendly and sweet with my little ones. I have no concerns with taking them to Happy Pets. It is always nice to see staff as compassionate with your pups as you are.
I am very happy that Happy Pets is our vet. I highly recommend this vet. UPDATE: we have been here a year now and our feelings have not changed. The staff is amazing and super friendly. they really give a 110% when handling our furbabies. Dr. Baker is great. He answers all questions and never had any issues with him or this facility. We are very pleased.

My puppy got stung by a bee while walking, and we had to find a urgent care vet on last Saturday. Everyone at this vet was so helpful and kind while I was so worried waiting outside the vet. I also had a lot of questions because this was first time any of my dogs got stung by a bee, and everyone I met here answered all my questions with such kind heart. My puppy stayed here about 2 hours and she was all good after she got out and came home. Thank you so much Happy Pets

We had our first puppy visit and it could not have gone better. They were so happy to meet our new pups and were so friendly. They answered all of our questions, were very organized and have everything laid out for us to continue on with the vaccine schedule. They also use a pet app to keep track of their care and records. I love it so much!
