About Pets Alive
Serving Indiana's pets since 2005
Our Mission

In 2005, shelters across the United States were euthanizing roughly 5 million cats and dogs every year. That was unacceptable. So we opened a clinic where every family could afford to spay or neuter their pet.
With over 230,000 surgeries performed and a 4.8 Google rating, we are one of the highest-volume spay/neuter clinics in Indiana. No income proof or residency requirements — just affordable, compassionate veterinary care for every pet owner. We operate Monday through Thursday, serving families from across the state.
