Our Hospital & Capabilities
A Calm, Capable Space for High-Quality Pet Care
Creature Comforts Veterinary Hospital was designed to feel different — not cold or clinical, but clean, calm, and welcoming.
From the moment you walk in, our goal is to put both pets and people at ease. Our facility is purpose-built to deliver high-quality care with minimal stress, whether your pet is in for a routine visit or a more complex procedure.
We’ve invested in the tools and technology needed to provide safe, efficient, and thorough veterinary care right here in our Columbia clinic.

Kennels & Hospitalizations
Creature Comforts Veterinary Hospital boasts kennels and runs of all sizes to make all of our out-patient and hospitalized patients feel as comfortable as possible. Our patients are checked several times daily to make sure that they are comfortable during their stay with us. And every patient gets an individualized treatment plan for their situation. We never cut corners with our patients staying with us.
Please be aware that we DO NOT have overnight staffing. This means that patients who stay for overnight hospitalization must be stable enough to do so. If hospitalization is recommended for your pet, we will discuss transferring to a 24 hour facility, keeping them with us, or sending them home with you overnight. Dr. Stanley will advise you on which option is best for your pet and situation.
Watch Your Pet's Exam In Real Time
We understand how stressful it can be to hand your pet over and wait without knowing what’s happening.
That’s why we offer a unique iPad livestream of our treatment room — allowing you to watch your pet’s appointment in real time from the comfort of your exam room.
You’ll see how we interact with your dog or cat, how calmly we conduct exams, and how thoroughly we explain each step of care.
It’s just one more way we provide peace of mind, transparency, and the kind of thoughtful experience you won’t find at most veterinary clinics.
Whether your pet is in for a sick visit or a routine checkup, you’ll stay connected — because trust matters, and we want you to feel informed and confident every step of the way.
