Welcome to Zutilla Pet Clinic, where our mission is simple: help pets live their best life through compassionate, preventive care.
Founded by Dr. Star Gregory, a veterinarian and single mother with a passion for keeping pets healthy, Zutilla was created to fill a vital gap in local veterinary care. While other clinics focus on emergencies and illness, our entire approach centers on wellness, education, and prevention — because we believe that caring for your pet shouldn't start with a crisis.
Zutilla Pet Clinic began with a bold vision and a lot of heart. Starting a business is never easy — but doing it as a single mom, without outside financial support, was a true test of determination. Dr. Gregory's commitment to honest, judgment-free care and the Golden Rule became the guiding force behind every decision.
Since day one, Zutilla has focused on building a trusted brand rooted in professional expertise and genuine relationships. We've grown into a community where pets — and their people — feel supported, understood, and empowered to make the best choices for lifelong health.
We envision a future where Zutilla Pet Clinic is known as the region’s leader in integrative veterinary preventive care. From conventional treatments to natural therapies like acupuncture, food therapy, and herbal remedies, we aim to offer innovative solutions that support the whole pet — mind, body, and spirit.
My name is Miguel. I have always been interested in all animals since I was a child. I have been a veterinary assistant since 2015. I have two dogs; Millie and Gordo.

Hello! My name is Molly Howell. I’ve had pets since I was a child and have always cared for animals. I enjoy spending time with my family and doing outside activities with my kids.
Hello! My name is Karen. Those who know me know how much of a big heart I have for any animal I cross paths with! I have a beautiful cat named Winter and we love to cuddle and watch sunrises and sunsets together. I enjoy nature, exploring, reading, exercising, and spending time with my friends and family.
I started off as a street cat and was being cared for by a nice man. But I started to develop some skin issues that caused me to itch terribly. My coat was patchy, and my skin was covered in scabs. The man that was caring for me was unable to alleviate my discomfort and felt my life was not one of quality. He brought me to Zutilla Pet Clinic to relieve my discomfort…permanently, if you get what I’m saying. Dr. Gregory thought she could help me and elected not to send me over the Rainbow Bridge. I’m now feeling better, looking better, and have been here ever since.
We bring a shared commitment to kindness, communication, and transparency — the core business values that guide every appointment, treatment plan, and conversation.
At Zutilla, we don’t just treat pets — we partner with pet owners. Whether you’re looking for nutritional advice, routine wellness care, or a second opinion, you’ll find a customer-focused team that listens, explains, and supports your goals. No pressure. No judgment. Just honest guidance and heartfelt care.
If you're looking for a veterinary clinic that prioritizes prevention, education, and trust, you've come to the right place. Let’s work together to give your pet the healthiest, happiest life possible.
