Choosing a vet for your dog or cat means trusting someone with a member of your family, and that trust tends to run deeper when the people behind the practice actually live where you live. You want a team that understands the local dog parks, the summer heat that sends pets into your waiting room with heatstroke, and the same neighborhood streets your family drives every day, not a rotating cast of providers with no real stake in the community. That local connection is exactly what sets our team apart at Grace Animal Hospital. Our owner and management live locally and are active within the community, and it shows in how we approach pet examinations and every other part of your visit. Recent AVMA survey data shows that dog and cat owners overwhelmingly cite routine checkups and preventive care as the reason for their last veterinary visit, and we built our practice around meeting that need with people who understand this community from the inside, not from a corporate office somewhere else.

Why It Matters That Your Vet Lives Where You Live

There is a difference between a practice that serves a town and a practice that is truly part of it. When the people making decisions about your care live in Holly Springs, they see the same growth, the same new neighborhoods, and the same daily rhythms of the community that you do. That perspective influences how we schedule appointments, how we talk with you about your pet’s needs, and how we prioritize being available when you actually need us. Dr. Montell moved to North Carolina a few years ago, and Dr. Wells joined the team after completing a rotating internship in Cary. They both live locally and are actively involved in their local community. They are your neighbors, and that’s not a marketing line. It’s simply how the practice was built from day one.

Two Doctors, One Mission

Our practice, led by our team of doctors, shares a single mission: to be the practice Holly Springs families can rely on for the entire life of their pet, from the first puppy or kitten visit through their senior years. We describe ourselves as your pet’s forever vet, and we mean it. That mission drives everything from our decision to stay open six days a week, Monday through Saturday, to our commitment to walk-in and same-day urgent care for families who can’t wait for the next available slot. Being rooted in Holly Springs also means we understand the particular pressures facing a fast-growing suburban community. New families are moving in every month, many of them bringing pets who need a trusted local practice right away. Our team handles every visit with low-stress, gentle handling techniques and a conservative treatment philosophy, so pets who are anxious about the vet still leave feeling cared for rather than rattled.

Who Owns Grace Animal Hospital in Holly Springs, NC?

If you are searching for who owns Grace Animal Hospital in Holly Springs, NC, the answer reflects exactly the kind of practice we set out to build. Grace Animal Hospital is privately owned and operated by people who live in Holly Springs themselves, and that local ownership structure is intentional. It keeps decisions about your pet’s care close to home instead of routed through a distant corporate structure, and it means the people responsible for this practice are personally invested in how they serve our community. You can learn more about the full team behind our practice, including Dr. Montell’s and Dr. Wells’ backgrounds. Our providers bring a range of experience to the exam room, and getting to know the faces behind your pet’s care is part of what makes Grace Animal Hospital feel less like a clinic and more like an extension of your own family’s support system here in Holly Springs.

Caring for a Community We Are Proud to Call Home

It means showing up for the same families we see at the grocery store, the same neighborhoods we drive through, and the same Holly Springs events our own families attend. If you are looking for a veterinary team that understands what it means to genuinely live where you live, we would love the chance to meet you and your pet.
