We consider ourselves your pet’s temporary caretaker beginning with your first visit, and we give animals the same unwavering love they do for us. We assess your pet’s health to create the best plan for its well-being. For you to make thoughtful decisions about the care of your pet, you can be sure you’ll have the information you require when you need it.

Your pet will receive care from our Greenville vet based on your pet’s lifestyle and needs. Our staff members will become familiar with your pet while keeping track of its breed, age, habits, and temperament.

Dr. Heather Miller

Veterinarian

While a student at Ohio State University, Dr. Miller completed externships at the Columbia Zoo and Aquarium, at the University of Georgia in the exotic animal specialty ward, and at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. She returned home to South Carolina in 2006, and in 2010 she accepted a job at the Greenville Zoo as the Deputy Administrator for Animal Health. She enjoyed the challenge of caring for exotic species for just over 5 years.

She and her husband are a great team and very generous to have opened their home to foster children. With three children of their own, dogs, cats, birds, and bunnies, theirs is a busy, lively, and happy household! Dr. Miller is an extremely kind, compassionate, and caring person. She loves pets and people, and we are very fortunate to have her on our staff!
