About Dr. May’s Vet Clinic & House Calls
Dr. May’s Vet Clinic and House Calls provides compassionate, independent veterinary care for dogs and cats in Chino Valley, AZ, and the Quad Cities, including Prescott and Prescott Valley, with additional services in the Los Angeles area.
A Veterinary Journey Rooted in Compassion
From an early age, Dr. May knew she was called to care for animals. Raised with a strong foundation in compassion for all living beings, her path into veterinary medicine was guided not only by science but by ethics and advocacy. After earning her Bachelor’s degree from UC Berkeley and her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from UC Davis, she became a voice for humane treatment within veterinary education and beyond.
Her early career in a 24-hour emergency hospital sharpened her skills in surgery, diagnostics, and critical care. While this experience was invaluable, it also shaped her philosophy: helping animals thrive through prevention and holistic support, rather than only treating illness at its most severe stages.
This vision led to the founding of Dr. May’s Veterinary House Calls in 2007, allowing her to provide individualized care in a low-stress home environment. Today, her work continues to evolve through both mobile and in-clinic services, offering thoughtful, patient-centered veterinary care across Northern Arizona and the Los Angeles area.
