Charlottesville Veterinary Rehabilitation Services
Just like humans, animals need rehabilitative services for a variety of reasons. Surgery, injuries, advancing age, and genetic conditions can all impact your pet’s mobility or cause chronic pain. We are proud to offer your pet rehabilitation services to help them get back to living a normal, healthy life.
Pet rehabilitation offers a range of benefits, including improved mobility, pain management, and faster recovery from injuries and surgeries. Our veterinarians and Certified Canine Rehabilitation Practitioners (CCRPs) provide the highest caliber of care for our veterinary patients.
During your consultation with one of our CCRPs, your pet will receive a custom rehabilitation plan. This program considers your pet's individual needs and offers a clear path to recovery.

Kiah
Kiah joined the VVSE team in 2016. She is a Veterinary Technology graduate of Blue Ridge Community College in 2016. Her care for patients in our surgical department inspired her to advance her career in canine rehabilitation. She became a Certified Canine Rehabilitation Practitioner in 2023 from the University of Tennessee. She is enthusiastic to work with dogs in their recovery from post-operative surgery, injuries, or geriatrics in need of a fitness regimen. When Kiah is not working, she enjoys spending time working on my many hobbies, painting, knitting crocheting and baking.
