Keeping Pets Safe and Healthy
Pet Vaccinations in Gilbertsville, PA
Vaccinations are one of the simplest and most effective ways to protect your pet from serious — and potentially fatal — diseases. At Patt Veterinary Hospital, we offer safe, personalized vaccination plans for dogs and cats in Gilbertsville, PA and surrounding areas. Whether you’re welcoming a new puppy or kitten or maintaining your adult pet’s immunity, we’re here to help you keep them protected.
Protection That Extends Beyond Your Pet
Why Vaccinations Matter
Vaccines help your pet build immunity against contagious diseases that can cause long-term illness, permanent damage, or even death. Some of these diseases are airborne or spread by contact with other animals, while others are transmitted through insect bites or contaminated surfaces.
Vaccinating your pet not only protects them — it also helps protect other pets in the community.
Prevent Disease, Protect Lives
Personalized Protection for Every Pet’s Needs

During your pet’s wellness exam, we’ll review their environment and exposure risks to determine which vaccines are appropriate and how often they should be administered.
Building Strong Immunity from the Start
Puppy and Kitten Vaccination Schedules
Starting vaccines early gives young pets the best chance at lifelong protection. Most puppies and kittens begin their first series of vaccines at 6–8 weeks of age and receive boosters every 3–4 weeks until they are around 16 weeks old. After that, boosters are given annually or every three years, depending on the vaccine.
We’ll walk you through the full schedule and answer any questions you may have.
Lifelong Care for Lasting Health
Adult and Senior Pet Vaccines
Vaccinations aren’t just for puppies and kittens. Adult and senior pets need regular boosters to maintain immunity. We’ll assess your pet’s health and vaccination history before recommending a safe, effective plan to keep them protected without over-vaccinating.
Gentle Care for a Calm, Comfortable Experience
Safe, Stress-Free Vaccination Visits
At Patt Veterinary Hospital, your pet’s safety and comfort come first. We use high-quality vaccines, follow best practices for handling and storage, and take time to make the experience as calm and quick as possible — especially for pets who are nervous or reactive.
