At Columbia Veterinary Center, we offer in-hospital care for pets

who require more intensive support than an outpatient visit can provide. Whether your pet is recovering from surgery, illness, or needs stabilization, our experienced team is here to provide compassionate, attentive care during their stay.

Please note: Our hospitalization services are only available during regular business hours. Pets requiring overnight or 24-hour monitoring will be referred to a local emergency facility.

Make it stand out.

  • General Hospitalization Services

    We provide safe, clean, and quiet hospitalization areas where pets can rest and recover under the care of our veterinary team. From diagnostic support to short-term observation, we’re equipped to handle a wide range of medical needs.

  • IV Fluids & Medication

    Pets who are dehydrated, ill, or recovering from surgery may require IV fluids and injectable medications. We carefully tailor treatments to your pet’s condition and ensure they receive the proper dosing and hydration support.

  • Pain Management

    Keeping your pet comfortable is one of our top priorities. We provide individualized pain management plans using safe, effective medications that promote healing and reduce stress.

  • Pet Monitoring

    Our trained staff closely monitors hospitalized pets throughout the day—checking vital signs, appetite, mobility, and overall well-being. Any changes in condition are quickly addressed and communicated to you.

  • Oxygen Therapy

    For pets experiencing breathing difficulties or respiratory distress, we offer oxygen therapy in a calm and closely supervised environment to help restore stable breathing and support recovery.
