At Transitions Veterinary Care™, our mission is to maximize the comfort and minimize the suffering for both pets and their caregivers.
We understand that experiencing aging, chronic illness, and cancer can be a challenging time for both you and your pet.
As Ventura County’s first certified hospice and palliative veterinary services, we provide empathetic, personalized veterinary care for pets and their people who need extra attention and care during the transitions of the pet’s life.
