We Are a Different
Kind of Vet Clinic.

No waiting rooms, no hassle,
and no reason to get out of your car.

Driftwood DriVEThru Vet combines the convenience of a drive-thru with the expertise and care of veterinary professionals.

Pet owners can bring their furry friends for a range of veterinary services without leaving the comfort of their car. Owners can pull their vehicle right into the clinic and wait for a veterinary professional to attend to their pet. A vet tech will come to the car to collect the pet and take them inside the car-side examination room to receive care.

Driftwood DriVEThru Vet offers various services, including routine checkups, vaccinations, wellness exams, dental cleanings, and surgical procedures. Pet owners can schedule appointments at 402-435-3003, option 1.

One of the benefits of DriVEThru Vet at DRIFTWOOD is that it saves pet owners time and reduces stress for both pets and their owners. Visiting a traditional veterinary clinic can be stressful for pets, as they may become anxious or agitated in the waiting room with other “friends.” By eliminating the need to enter a waiting room, pets can remain calm and comfortable in their owner's car.

Parents love the option of keeping the kids buckled in while their furry family members can receive veterinary care! The stress of managing little humans and little critters can sometimes seem overwhelming – but not here!

Not a fan of the elements? Then DRIVETHRU! Braving the hot, cold, ice, sleet, snow, or rain is much easier at DRIFTWOOD DriVEThru Vet.

Driftwood DriVEThru Vet is a convenient and unique approach to veterinary care that caters to the needs of busy pet owners. By providing high-quality care in a stress-free environment, Driftwood DriVEThru Vetcare is revolutionizing the way pets receive medical attention.

    Overall, boarding your dog and cat at Driftwood can provide numerous benefits to both you and your pets. You can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands, while your pets get the care, attention, and socialization they need to stay happy and healthy.
    • Peace of Mind: Boarding your pets can give you peace of mind knowing that they are being taken care of by trained professionals while you're away. Our dogs go out to an outdoor enclosure four times a day seven days a week. 7:00 am, 11:00 am, 3:00 pm, and 6:30 pm. We also tend to the cats in our care during the same four times we do the dog let-outs. A walk thru/wellness check by a supervisor is done twice a day seven days a week. We also provide a walk thru/rounds by one of our veterinarians once a day Monday - Friday.
    • Socialization: We offer an opportunity for your dogs to socialize with other dogs during group play, which can be great for their mental and emotional health. It can also help them develop better social skills and reduce their anxiety around other dogs.
    • Health Care: We have veterinary staff on hand to monitor your pets' health and administer any necessary medication. This can be especially important if your pets have health conditions that require close monitoring or frequent medication.
    • Exercise and Activities: We offer an extensive menu of activities to keep your pets active and engaged while you're away. This can help prevent boredom and destructive behavior in your absence. This also allows us to further bond with your pet which greatly reduces stress.
    • Safety: Boarding your pets can be safer than leaving them at home or with a pet sitter. We have safety protocols in place to ensure the well-being of your pets, such as secure fencing and staff trained in pet safety and emergency procedures.
    Overall, boarding your dog and cat can provide numerous benefits to both you and your pets. You can have peace of mind knowing your pets are in good hands, while your pets get the care, attention, and socialization they need to stay happy and healthy.
    Requirements for all services

    For resort services including boarding, grooming, daycare, or training. – hang a right and head over to the park in front of the PET RESORT and SPAW, which is the original building!

    Come on in right inside our lobby we are happy to help with any belongings. If the cones are up head into our open drive-thru on the pet resort side.

    Dogs visiting the facility must be current on rabies, distemper/parvo, and bordetella (kennel cough) vaccines AND have a NEGATIVE parasite stool screening within the last 6 months.

    Cats must be current on rabies, and distemper, be free of FeLV, FIP, and FIV, AND have a NEGATIVE parasite stool screening within the last 6 months.

    If your pet needs boosters or stool screenings, we are happy to provide this service during your pet’s stay. For your convenience, we can also do veterinary exams and heartworm checks, as well.

    Vaccine requirements for all services

    Which vaccinations are required to board my pet at DRIFTWOOD VET?

    Dogs visiting the facility must be current on rabies, distemper/parvo, and canine upper respiratory vaccine (kennel cough) vaccines. Cats must be current on rabies and distemper vaccines, and be free of FeLV, FIP, and FIV (give us a call if this is an issue). When you visit us with your pet make sure to bring your vaccination records if they are from another veterinarian - if there are any vaccines that are out of date or missing we are happy to have them done while your pet stays with us at Driftwood PET RESORT and SPAW, but if we are not able to find a record of vaccines we will need to update them in order to have them board with us. If your pet has had a previous vaccine reaction, please let us know so that we may update their profiles and keep all of our four-legged friends healthy and happy!

    Why do you require a NEGATIVE parasite stool screening within 6 months of boarding my pet?

    Nobody likes a parasite! Transmission is largely through the poo - and while we run a pretty clean ship here, poo happens. A parasite-free stool sample every 6 months is the GOLD STANDARD for maintaining health and well-being per the recommendation of the Companion Animal Parasite Council (CAPC). For the safety of our guests and Pet Resort and SPAW team members, it is critically important that everyone is parasite-free - so we can focus on the fun things... like Pupdates and Cat Chat posts!
