Senior Pet Care
Foxcroft, Tallahassee
Gentle Support for Golden Years
As pets age, their bodies and behaviors begin to change—and those golden years require thoughtful, attentive care. This is why we offer quality senior pet care Foxcroft, Tallahassee pet owners can rely on.
At Ox Bottom Animal Hospital, we’re honored to help senior dogs and cats live their later years with comfort, dignity, and as much joy as possible. Whether you’ve been with your pet since puppyhood or welcomed them into your home later in life, we’re here to support both of you with gentle, expert veterinary care.
Why Senior Care Matters
Pets are considered seniors around age 7 for most dogs and cats—sooner for larger breeds. As they age, they become more prone to chronic conditions such as arthritis, kidney disease, heart disease, diabetes, and cognitive decline.
Many of these issues can progress silently, which is why routine exams and early detection are critical to ensuring your pet stays comfortable and healthy.

Our senior wellness program is designed to catch age-related issues early and manage them proactively. Services may include:
- Bi-annual wellness exams to monitor changes over time
- Comprehensive bloodwork and lab testing to assess organ function
- Arthritis management, including supplements, medications, and laser therapy
- Nutritional counseling for weight and digestive health
- Behavioral support for changes in sleep, confusion, or anxiety
- Mobility support and pain management options
