our story at Roosevelt Animal Hospital

We opened our doors in the Roosevelt neighborhood with one goal: to give Seattle pet owners a veterinary experience that feels personal, not transactional. As a member of the Cara Veterinary Network, we draw on shared resources and expertise while staying rooted in our own community, focused on cats and dogs and the families who love them.

how our clinic took shape

We started as a small neighborhood practice and grew alongside the families who trusted us with their pets, expanding our reach to Lake Forest Park, Kenmore, and the surrounding north Seattle area along the way. From day one, our focus has stayed the same: take time with each patient, explain things clearly, and never rush a decision that matters this much. That philosophy still shapes how we practice medicine today.

how we support you & your pet

We measure good care by how confident you feel walking out the door, not just by what happens in the exam room.

Homegrown in the PNW

Cara veterinary is a Pacific Northwest network of veterinary practices built around a simple belief: Cara is care — reimagined. We’re here to deliver exceptional medicine for pets and create meaningful, supportive careers for the people who care for them. Homegrown in the PNW, and shaped by the communities we grew up in, we are a connected group of hospitals. We bring the strength of shared resources while keeping the heart of a neighborhood veterinarian. Every practice is empowered to stay deeply local, building trust with clients, strengthening community connections, and delivering care that feels personal.

veterinary care designed for your pet

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all medicine. Each visit starts with listening, continues with a thorough exam, and ends with a plan you actually understand and feel good about following.

veterinary care designed for your pet
