Services
Care Animal Hospital is a full service animal clinic and hospital, providing services ranging from emergency services to boarding. Many pet owners only bring their companions into the vet when sick, but there are a lot of yearly check ups and periodic exams that can help lengthen your pet’s life. Taking care of your pet’s teeth through regular dentist visits is an example of this type of care.

Meet the team
Dr. Alcorn and Dr. Flock are licensed veterinarians, treating a wide range of animals and pets in Temecula, Murrieta, and the nearby areas of Southern California. Providing the best care for your pet’s needs is the sole focus of the team, whether that be a routine first time checkup, shots and immunizations, or a dental procedure or surgery.

OUTREACH
Care Animal Hospital is the only veterinary hospital in the inland valley that accepts injured wildlife from the public for examination and treatments. We work with state certified rehabilitation organizations, project wildlife, to get wildlife back into the wild. The staff takes hours per week to help diagnose and treat wildlife. The cost for our doctors and staff hours, diagnostic test and treatments are all paid for by Care Animal Hospital.
I’ve had a few pets and a few vets in my lifetime, but rarely do you find a vet team who are as caring, knowledgeable and efficient as in this facility. I will bring both my pups here any time a visit is needed. The Dr’s diagnosis was spot on before the clinical results even came back as expected. Cost even reasonable for treatment. Thank you!
