Appointments

Watch Our Video

The veterinarians at Silver Lake Small Animal Veterinary Clinic see patients BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. Although we are not an emergency clinic, we do understand that occasionally through accident or illness, your animal may need to be seen urgently. Our assistants will do their best to be sure your pet gets the care it needs. If we are unable to see them in clinic, we will provide you with contact information and, if needed, directions to Northeast Indiana Veterinary Emergency and Specialty Hospital (NIVES) in Ft. Wayne, Indiana.


Our small animal veterinarians, who focus on the care of dogs and cats, are available for surgical appointments during the morning and the afternoons are reserved for general wellness, maintenance, and other outpatient services. If at any time you are unable to keep an appointment, contact the clinic and our assistants will gladly help you reschedule at a time that better suits your schedule. Appointments may be scheduled by calling our clinic or through the TeleVet App.


Our large animal veterinarian deals primarily with horses and cows. While she sets her own schedule, our assistants are happy to reach out to her on your behalf or put you in touch with her to schedule an appointment or to speak with her about your large animal issues.

  • Mimi


    This staff is friendly, compassionate and knowledgeable. Whenever I call with a concern, everyone is so helpful and they love my dogs like their own.

  • Jody A.


    Great Vets and staff. Caring compassionate and respectful to both animal and owner. 100% recommended

  • Beth M.


    I cannot say enough about this vet. Recently my dog was attacked by coyotes, which resulted in a trip the Fort Wayne to the emergency vet (due to it happening at night). I called the next day to let Silver Lake vet know and schedule an appointment with them. Dr Kay was in surgery when I called, but she called me later that same day and spent 15 minutes on the phone checking on my dog and explaining what to watch for and how to care for her (something they did not do in Fort Wayne!) This is not the first time she has taken the time to call me and help me with pet questions. When we brought my daughters dog home and she wouldn’t eat and was having problems. Dr Kays called us back and helped out then too. Dr Surface took care of my horses for many years and was always knowledgeable, friendly and professional. I recommend them 100%!

  • Yvonne B.


    I take my cats to Silver Lake Small Animal Clinic. The staff and doctors are always very helpful when I call, I feel confident that my cat and I both receive good service, it's very efficient. They have a great system in place with the Coronavirus pandemic; they come out to the car, take the cat inside to see the doctor, then bring your cat back to the car with meds and instructions from the doctor. I am very happy and recommend their service.

  • Karla K.


    Even in the midst of COVID-19 and all of the extra work it causes for them, Dr. Kays and her wonderful staff at Silver Lake Small Animal Vet Clinic take top-notch care of my Nina! Thank you!

  • Donna Z.


    Dr Kays is the most thorough and compassionate veterinarian I have dealt with.


    She truly cares about your animal and about trying to save you money.

  • Kath T.


    The visit was great. Everything was thoroughly explained and both Dr Kays and Robin are so good with Blaze. They really care and provide thorough information on how to best treat his 16 year old issues.

  • Lily L.


    Kate is amazing! Her compassion and love for animals hasn’t changed in the 25+ years I have been taking my pets there. She is always going above and beyond for fur babies.
