Our story

Destination Pet, headquartered in Highlands Ranch, Colorado, is a national network of pet-obsessed professionals dedicated to elevating the love and lives of our pet families through Connected Care.

With more than a century of experience, our founders understood the need for better pet healthcare and believed in the value of integrating pet services from veterinary medicine to, grooming, boarding, daycare, training and more. By connecting the experts behind the scenes, we get to know our pet families in a way that allows us to offer proactive, convenient, and personalized advice and care.

When I worked as a Pet Center Manager, we often had clients asking about veterinary services for the pets in our care. This would have been a great benefit to offer our clients so that they could drop off their furry loved ones and we could truly care for their pets whole health. When I first joined Destination Pet, I immediately saw the value in Connected Care. This ensures we can offer top-notch care to every guest who walks into one of our centers by pet professionals. As a fellow pet parent, it gives me great peace of mind knowing that my dog has easy access to veterinary care right on-site or close by, if needed.
