In 2025, more families than ever turned to Mission when they had nowhere else to go for their pets’ care. It was also a year of unexpected challenges. Three of our veterinarians took family leave at the same time, and we faced financial pressures we hadn’t planned for. Our community rallied behind us, making it possible to bring in relief veterinarians, support our team, and keep caring for the patients who needed us. Through it all, we stayed focused on what matters most: treating every pet and every family with compassion and respect. Our commitment to the families we serve stays constant; how we meet it keeps evolving.
