About Us
AVH Animal Ark has been a trusted partner of pet owners, providing comprehensive and holistic veterinary care for all pets, big and small. We aim to create a minimally stressful and positive experience, building a trusting relationship between the pets, veterinary professionals and pet owners. This is in alignment with ISFM cat friendly handling techniques to ensure we uphold the highest standards of care that comes with the ISFM Silver Cat Friendly Clinic status obtained by both branches in 2024.
Our clinic has been specially designed to operate on a completely open-concept basis, allowing pet owners to be involved in the care and treatment of their beloved companions throughout their entire visit here. This also puts pets at ease knowing that their pet parents are with them every step of the way.
We are committed to providing you and your pet with the best care possible. Our team of experienced vets and vet nurses are constantly upgrading our skill sets and knowledge to keep up with technology and advancements in small animal medicine and surgery.
AVH Animal Ark is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Asia Vets Holdings Ltd. which has been listed on SGX-Catalist since July 2010.
