At Stonebridge Veterinary Wellness, we provide compassionate, comprehensive pet care at our veterinary clinic near North Highlands, CA, helping pets live healthier, happier lives.
Pets in North Highlands live full lives. They’re on the couch by evening, running through Freedom Park on weekends, and woven into the daily rhythm of one of Sacramento County’s most family-driven communities. When something feels off with a dog or cat in a household like that, the need for a veterinary practice that actually knows your pet and can handle whatever comes up isn’t just a preference. It’s the whole point.
Stonebridge Veterinary Wellness is a family-owned practice in Roseville, about 15 minutes from North Highlands. Our team has been caring for pets throughout the Sacramento region for decades, and we’ve built a practice where the relationship between our doctors and your family is just as important as the medicine. North Highlands pet owners seeking comprehensive veterinary care that goes beyond the basics will find it with us.
A puppy coming in for its first vaccines needs something different than a seven-year-old Labrador showing early signs of joint stiffness, and both need something different than a senior cat managing a chronic condition. What remains consistent across it all is the value of a veterinary team that has watched your pet grow and understands their history. That continuity is something our doctors take seriously, and it shapes how we approach every appointment, from a first visit to a follow-up after a procedure.
Preventative care is the foundation of that long-term relationship. Routine wellness exams, bloodwork screenings, and age-appropriate checkups allow us to track changes over time and catch concerns before they develop into something more serious. We also believe in keeping you informed at every step, because pet owners who understand their animal’s health are better equipped to make the right decisions for them.
Dental health is one area we often hear about from families in communities like North Highlands, and it tends to be overlooked until a visible problem arises. The American Veterinary Medical Association notes that a pet’s teeth and gums should be examined by a veterinarian at least once a year. Our pet dentistry services are designed to catch problems before they become painful or costly.
There are moments in a pet’s life that call for more than a wellness exam: A dog limping after a morning run, a cat that stops eating, a lump that wasn’t there last month. All of these are situations where the depth of a practice really shows itself. At Stonebridge Veterinary Wellness, we’re equipped to handle a full range of surgical procedures, led by Dr. Erin Paster, a board-certified surgeon with extensive experience treating small-animal patients throughout the Sacramento region.
Dr. Paster’s background includes serving as a PennHIP postdoctoral fellow at the University of Pennsylvania and contributing to peer-reviewed research that helped reshape how hip and joint conditions are understood across a dog’s lifetime. For pets who need orthopedic care, we use PennHIP screening to assess hip dysplasia risk in puppies as young as 16 weeks of age and employ early recommendations that may help delay or reduce future joint problems. We also consult with a veterinarian certified in pain management to ensure every patient’s comfort is addressed thoughtfully, both during recovery and beyond.
For pets who require anesthesia, our team uses advanced monitoring equipment to track vital signs closely from the start of the procedure through full recovery. Warming devices and temperature support techniques are used throughout, and heated blankets are provided during recovery to keep pets comfortable as they are waking up. When a case calls for more extensive testing, we work with an outside laboratory, and our on-site advanced diagnostic imaging capabilities mean fewer referrals and faster answers for the families we serve.
North Highlands is a community that values people over brands. Neighbors know each other, families put down roots, and the businesses that last are the ones that treat people like they matter. That is the kind of practice Stonebridge Veterinary Wellness has always been. We are privately owned and non-corporate, which means every decision we make is guided by what is genuinely best for your pet, not by external business pressures.
Our doctors take time. They explain what they’re seeing, walk through options, and make sure you leave each visit with a clear picture of your pet’s health. For North Highlands families making the short drive to our Roseville clinic, that consistency and transparency are something you’ll notice from the very first appointment. We also offer a calm, welcoming environment designed to reduce stress for pets and their owners alike, because we believe a positive experience at the vet starts long before the exam room.
Stonebridge Veterinary Wellness is a family-owned practice where every pet is treated with the same level of care and attention we’d want for our own. Our doctors bring board-certified surgical training, extensive diagnostic capabilities, and a genuine commitment to keeping North Highlands families informed and confident in the care their pets receive at every stage of life.
Stonebridge Veterinary Wellness is a practice built on veterinary ethics, five-star client care, and a deep respect for the bond between pets and the people who love them. We’d love the opportunity to meet your pet and become a trusted part of their care. To get started, contact our office using our online contact form.
