Meet Dr. Stillmaker

Bringing home a new puppy or kitten is exciting, and we're here to help you start off on the right paw. Early visits focus on core vaccinations, deworming, and a full health check.

We'll also talk through spay/neuter timing, microchipping, nutrition, and everything else new pet parents want to know.

What to expect in the first few months

Young pets usually visit every 3 to 4 weeks until they are around 16 weeks old. Each visit builds their protection and gives us a chance to answer your questions as they grow.

  • Core vaccine series, with lifestyle vaccines as needed
  • Deworming and a fecal parasite check
  • Flea, tick and heartworm prevention
  • Microchipping for permanent identification
  • Spay and neuter planning
  • Nutrition, house training, litter box and socialization tips

What to bring to the first visit

Bring any records from the breeder, shelter or rescue, a fresh stool sample if you can, and your list of questions. No question is too small.
