Welcome To Lakeville Family Pet Clinic

The Ones Who Make It Happen

It is the mission of Dr. Shannon Kennelly, Dr. Kate Brakefield, Dr. Erin Flath, Dr. Taylor Smedley, Dr. KelliAnn Bowman, Dr. Emily Kurtz, and the rest of our team have one thing in common: they genuinely love what they do. Lakeville Family Pet Clinic was built from the ground up as an independent practice,  no corporate ownership, no patient quotas, just a clinic designed around what’s best for the animals and families we serve. We’ve cared for over 13,000 patients and we’re still the kind of place where the staff knows your dog’s name.

Our New Office Space

Exciting News… We’re growing! Lakeville Family Pet Clinic will be opening a brand-new clinic space soon—more room, more comfort, same compassionate care you love.

AAHA-Accredited Care

Lakeville Family Pet Clinic is one of the few veterinary clinics in the area to hold AAHA accreditation, a distinction that fewer than 15% of veterinary practices in the U.S. earn. It means your pet is seen by a team held to the highest standards in veterinary medicine. [Learn what AAHA accreditation means for your pet]
