Preventive Pet Care in Sacramento, CA

OPEN THURSDAY - FRIDAY 5:00pm to 9:00PM

At Broadway Veterinary Hospital, we believe in proactive, routine care as the foundation for keeping your pet healthy. Our preventive pet care services help pet owners protect against common diseases, detect issues early, and support long-term wellness for dogs and cats throughout Sacramento.

Whether it’s regular vaccinations, parasite screenings, or dental care, our goal is to reduce the risk of illness and maintain your pet’s health through all stages of life.

Our dedicated team is here to provide urgent, high-quality care for your pets—because they’re family and deserve immediate attention when it matters most!

Why Preventive Care Matters

Many serious health problems in pets can be avoided through consistent preventive care. Vaccines, screenings, and routine checkups help detect early signs of infection, manage risk, and improve your pet’s overall health before more serious treatment is required.

Our pet preventive services include:

  • Core and lifestyle-based vaccinations (including rabies, feline leukemia, and kennel cough)

  • Annual bloodwork to monitor for kidney disease, heart disease, or other hidden health issues

  • Heartworm prevention, as well as protection against fleas, ticks, and other parasites

  • Skin and coat checks to monitor for irritations or signs of infection on your pet’s skin

  • Nutritional counseling and behavior reviews to support full-body health and well-being

Preventive care benefits humans, too, by reducing the chance of infection from zoonotic diseases that can pass from animals to people.

Vaccinations and Disease Prevention for Dogs and Cats

Keeping your dogs and cats protected from contagious illnesses is one of the most important parts of responsible ownership. At Broadway Veterinary Hospital, we provide the best vaccines based on age, lifestyle, breed, and environment.

Our veterinarian team recommends:

  • Regular vaccinations for puppies, kittens, and adult pets

  • Core vaccines, including rabies, distemper, and parvovirus

  • Additional protection against Lyme disease, feline leukemia, and kennel cough, where appropriate

  • Preventive screenings for heartworm, intestinal parasites, and tick-borne illnesses

By staying on schedule with your pet’s vaccines, you not only help prevent illness but also protect others in your community, including other animals and local shelter populations.

Vaccinations and Disease Prevention for Exotic Animals

Preventive care is just as important for exotic pets as it is for dogs and cats. At Broadway Veterinary Hospital, we help pet owners care for small mammals, reptiles, and birds with species-specific plans designed to maintain good health and reduce the risk of disease or infection.

Though many exotic animals do not require routine vaccinations, they are still vulnerable to parasites, respiratory conditions, and health issues tied to improper habitat setup or nutrition. Our preventive pet care services for exotic species may include:

  • Wellness exams to detect early signs of illness

  • Parasite screenings for mites, lice, and intestinal worms

  • Fungal and bacterial testing, especially for reptiles and birds

  • Nutritional and habitat evaluations to prevent metabolic disorders

  • Zoonotic disease monitoring for illnesses transmissible to humans

If you’re caring for ferrets, rabbits, guinea pigs, snakes, lizards, or birds, our veterinarians will guide you through proper prevention strategies tailored to your pet’s species and environment. We serve exotic pet owners across Sacramento with the same dedication we provide to every patient.

Partnering with Pet Owners for Pets' Health

We know how much your pets mean to you, and we’re here to help you give them the healthiest life possible. Our Sacramento clinic provides a welcoming environment where every vet visit focuses on prevention, education, and early treatment when needed.

Maintaining a routine wellness schedule makes it easier to track changes, assess risk, and take action before problems worsen. Whether you’re caring for a playful puppy or a senior cat, our preventive approach is designed to support the unique needs of each patient we serve.

Hear From Our Pet Parents

“ Dr. Sam saved my baby...

My dog Aurora had mouth cancer. I found out and had such little time to schedule her surgery because it was so aggressive. I was referred to Dr. Sam by a friend. I live in Santa Barbara and made the trip up to Sacramento. I am still impressed how well everything went! She had to have almost half of her jaw removed. She is cancer free and looking amazing! Back to her puppy self. First picture is only 2 months after surgery! 2nd and 3rd are the day of. Dr. Sam saved my baby

I drove 95 miles to have Dr. Sam at Broadway Vet perform surgery on my kitten. The hospitality and professionalism demonstrated by the entire staff was second to none and I will be a return customer for all my future veterinary needs! My kitty bounced back so quickly because Dr. Sam is an expert in his field and knew just what needed to be done. Highly recommend Broadway Veterinary Hospital! Thanks, Dr. Sam!
