A neighborhood vet in Mission Viejo

Mission Hills Pet Care Center is a small animal hospital led by Dr. Kelly Wright. We see dogs and cats for checkups, vaccines and the days when something is wrong.

You get time to ask questions, a clear explanation of what we find and what it costs before we start. Pet owners tell us our prices are fair, and we intend to keep it that way.

What we do

Everyday medicine for dogs and cats, from their first vaccines to their senior years.

All services
  • Wellness exams and checkups

    A nose to tail exam: weight, teeth, eyes, ears, heart, skin and coat. We talk through diet, activity and anything that has changed at home.

  • Vaccinations

    Core and lifestyle vaccines for puppies, kittens and adults, with a schedule that fits your pet's age and how they live.

  • Cat care

    Cats get a quiet, patient visit. We handle them gently and give them time, because a calm cat is easier to examine.

  • Dog care

    From small breeds to big, strong dogs. Routine care, follow ups and advice for every stage of life.

  • X-rays and ultrasounds

    When we need to see inside, we take x-rays and do ultrasounds here at the clinic, so we can find answers and explain them to you in the same visit.

  • Sick or injured pets

    Not eating, limping, vomiting or simply not themselves. Call us and we look at your pet as soon as we can.

  • New patients

    Bring your pet's previous records and vaccine history. We get to know your pet and set up a care plan with you.

"Highly recommend this vet for your fur babies! I reached out to them when our smallest cat came into our life. She desperately walked on up looking for help."
