Services
We offer Veterinary Abdominal Ultrasound examinations to visualize internal organs using non-invasive imaging. High-frequency sound waves generate detailed real-time images of the abdomen. In-house availability enables prompt interpretation and timely treatment decisions. We integrate results with other diagnostics to support comprehensive care. 
We provide advanced class 4 laser therapy for pets as a non-invasive, drug-free option for pain relief and healing. This treatment uses targeted light to stimulate cellular activity, improve circulation, and reduce inflammation. It is commonly used for arthritis, post-surgical recovery, and acute soft tissue injuries in pets. Sessions are brief, comfortable, supporting mobility and recovery. 
We provide routine and advanced surgical care including spay and neuter procedures, growth removal surgeries, cystotomy, and gastrointestinal operations. Our board-certified veterinary surgeons determine the appropriate course of treatment based on each pet’s condition. We emphasize pre-operative diagnostics, safe anesthesia, continuous monitoring, and attentive recovery care to reduce risk and improve outcomes. overall patient safety 
Within our Pet Dermatology service, we address a wide range of conditions including allergies, ear infections, autoimmune skin disorders, dandruff, folliculitis, and parasite-related irritation. Our experienced veterinarians carefully identify underlying causes before recommending treatment. We develop structured care plans aimed at improving comfort, restoring skin health, and reducing recurrence in pets overall care. 
We offer comprehensive vaccination services designed to protect both cats and dogs from serious preventable diseases. Special attention is given to feline leukemia prevention, especially for outdoor cats, along with core vaccines for rabies and parvovirus. Our team also supports ongoing booster schedules to maintain long-term immunity and consistent health protection as part of care. 
Maintaining oral health in pets is essential, as dental disease often progresses silently and affects daily comfort. We provide professional dental services designed to identify concerns early and address them effectively. Symptoms may include bad breath, chewing difficulties, tooth discoloration, appetite loss, mouth pain, bleeding gums, swelling, and loose teeth, along with possible behavior changes. Our focus remains on early diagnosis and preventive care to support long-term dental health outcomes.

I love this hospital. The vet here is an amazing lady with a heart of gold. Extremely compassionate. I have never seen a doctor like the vet here. The prices are reasonable. I wouldn’t take my dogs anywhere else. This clinic gets a 10 in my review. Thank you doctor for everything you have done for Mía and Chia. This doctor is going straight to heaven. ❤️🌹

Dr. Rebala is truly amazing. I have never encountered a veterinarian like her. She took the time to sit with my dog, perform a thorough exam, and clearly explain everything to me regarding my dog’s diet and allergies. I never felt rushed, and she made sure I understood each recommendation. On top of the excellent care, the pricing was incredibly reasonable. As a single mom on a budget, I was honestly shocked that I didn’t have to pay an arm and a leg or rely on a credit card. Compassionate, knowledgeable, and affordable care like this is RARE. I’m so grateful we found her and highly recommend Dr. Rebala to anyone looking for a vet who truly cares.

I love this pet hospital everyone from the front desk to the vet the whole staff is amazing and caring! I almost lost my cat due to labor complications and everywhere else was charging me an arm and a leg! She took me in right away even though she was fully booked and saved my cat! Since then I have brought all my animals to come see her! You can tell it is more than just about money with her. She takes care of your pets as if they were her own. I highly recommend this pet hospital.

I took MiMi my Chorkie for her surgery and doctor did great on her. Mimi is healing well and I really appreciate what doctor and her staff did for us. We are so Thankful. She helped us find ways to make Mimi get better and feel more comfortable eating her food. Thank You Sunshine Pet Hospital! Highly recommended….

Our 1-year-old English bulldog got spayed at another hospital and not only did they take her sutures out early but they also did a messy job. Called Sunshine as a plea to see if they could assist and take a look at her and not only did they take us in on the same day but also did an emergency surgery on her right then and there. The staff and Doctor were so knowledgeable and kind, we could not be more thankful.

2 years ago I took my best friend to the VCA since he was having a lot of trouble breathing, instead they criticized me and told me I should put him down. I didn’t want to. My dog made it through the night and I immediately brought him to this place, the Doctor took care of Pipo, she treated him for two days. Thanks to her he lived another 2 years. She kept on taking care of Pipo for his allergy’s after. If you’re looking for someone who actually cares, go here.
Thank you for giving us 2 more years with our best friend and family member, Pipo.
