Join the Littlestown Veterinary Hospital Team

What makes Littlestown Veterinary Hospital special?

Our employees! The most important and valuable resource we have is
our amazing team. Our management philosophy is to hire compassionate,
talented, hardworking, team-oriented people and treat them well. We trust
our staff to make decisions, educate clients, and participate fully in the care
we all provide.

Our doctors! We have five doctors. Two of our doctors see exotic
patients - sometimes 6-7 species in the same day! We also have a doctor
who is acupuncture and chiropractic-certified. We have over 130 years of
experience combined and are excited to mentor a new graduate.

Our clients! We truly have the best clients imaginable. We are glad to
engage with clients both in the facility and in the community. Among other
activities, we participate in the local fall parade with a float every year. Our
float is a fan-favorite and has been a winner every year!

Our facility! Our hospital is in a barn that is over 160 years old.
Formerly a livestock farm then pottery studio, the barn was renovated by our
doctors for use as a state-of-the-art vet hospital. It has bright windows, high
ceilings, a solar-paneled roof, and provides staff and clients alike with a
charming setting full of animal art. Though the bones of the building may be
old, our facility is modern. We have an in-house lab, multiple lasers for
surgery and therapy, digital radiology, and a dental suite. This facility has
won the Historic Gettysburg Adams County Barn Preservation Award and
the Gettysburg Adams Chamber of Commerce Environmental Stewardship
Award.

Our location! We are located in Adams County, PA just north of the
Mason-Dixon (PA-MD) line about 10 miles from Gettysburg (Gettysburg
College, Gettysburg National Military Park). Littlestown is a rural town
within driving distance of Baltimore, Washington, DC, and Harrisburg. There are many local outdoor recreation opportunities for camping, hiking,
fishing, boating, and biking. Numerous regional events are held locally
including music festivals, wine/brew festivals, antique shows, Civil War
reenactments, and the infamous Gettysburg Bike Week.

Our practice! We believe in keeping up-to-date with current standards
of practice. We use Avimark PMS. Our practice and all employees are Fear
Free certified. We have an entrance on a separate floor for cats and planned
euthanasias which allows for a quieter, more cat-friendly space.

Our COVID-compliance! We have been providing curbside service
since mid-March 2020. All employees are masked at all times unless eating.
Clients enter the building only if the patient is being euthanized or if it is
unmanageably aggressive without the owner. Clients are asked to wear
masks at all times while in the building and while talking to employees.
