Choosing the Right Veterinarian Matters.

Why Bring Your Pets to Pender?

You love your pet—they’re part of your family. And just like every member of your family, you want to provide them with the best quality food and medical care available at fair and reasonable pricing. We’ve worked hard to make Pender Vet Animal Hospital exactly that. We recognize that choosing a veterinarian for your beloved pet can be difficult. Do you go with the closest option? The biggest option with the most resources? The smallest option with a personal touch? The chain with the lowest prices? How do you balance and prioritize cost, convenience, and quality?

At Pender, we began with an uncompromising commitment to quality, and we have fought hard to provide unparalleled convenience and fair and aggressive pricing all at the same time. Simply put, we believe Pender Vet Animal Hospital is the best choice for pets and their owners living in Fairfax, Chantilly, Centreville, Reston … in fact all of Northern Virginia.

Here’s why…

The Pender Difference

Our Mission: We are dedicated to being a caring companion animal hospital. We promise to provide quality veterinary care, pet support services and education with compassion and integrity.

We know that everyone has a mission statement; sometimes they start to sound the same. But we take our mission seriously, and we’ve turned that mission into real-world advantages that merge quality with convenience and cost. We call this the Pender Advantage.

The Pender Advantage
