"There is nothing like the peace of mind of handing your beloved dog to a Vet who YOU KNOW has you AND your dog's best interest at heart. That describes Dr. Pablo to a tee. He has been treating my puppy since she was two months, and he always provides her with the most appropriate, fairly priced care. My puppy's eyes light up when she sees him.
On multiple occasions, he has advised us to take less expensive treatment options, despite the fact that the more expensive treatment option would benefit his company. That is because he puts you AND your pet first. I can't recommend Dr. Pablo and his team enough."
- Omar S. Santa Ana

Our mission is simple: help pets live longer, healthier lives through smarter medicine, natural nutrition, and a fear-free experience that puts their comfort first.
With over 22 years of veterinary experience, Dr. Pablo Etchemendy blends medical expertise with a down-to-earth approach that makes every pet parent feel at ease.
Originally from Uruguay and now proud to call Orange County home, he has cared for animals of all kinds — from dairy cattle to family pets — across Southern California.
In 2020, Dr. Etchemendy and his wife, Cecilia, opened Healthier Pet Veterinary Care to bring a more compassionate and integrative approach to pet health. Their care philosophy combines conventional medicine with natural nutrition, transparency,
and preventive wellness — empowering families to take an active role in their pets’ health journey.
When not in the clinic, Dr. Etchemendy enjoys time with his wife, exploring local trails with his dog, and continually studying the latest in veterinary nutrition and wellness.
