Roose Animal Hospital

Dr. Kevin Roose opened Roose Animal Hospital on Valentine’s Day in 1991, and the practice has been serving a variety of animals in the heart of the Plymouth, MI area ever since. Roose Animal Hospital offers a comprehensive range of services to dogs, cats, and exotic pets – including small mammals, birds, and reptiles! Their caring and compassionate staff provides exceptional care, from their patient’s first checkup to the precious golden years.
