About Gentle Paws Veterinary
Family, treated like family.
Our story
How Gentle Paws Veterinary got here
Gentle Paws was built by veterinarians who believed fearful and rescue pets deserved a calm, trusting place to heal. What set Gentle Paws Veterinary apart from the start was a refusal to treat the basics as afterthoughts — doing the careful, unglamorous work that earns trust, and treating every client the way the founders wished they had been treated. 8 years and more than 650 patients later, that conviction still runs Gentle Paws Veterinary. The team has grown, the work across San Antonio has too, but the promise is unchanged.
Our mission
To provide compassionate veterinary care where every pet is treated like family and fear dissolves with gentleness.
