Downers Grove Animal Hospital & Bird Clinic is a modern, well equipped, full service animal hospital dedicated to nurturing the bond between you and your canine, feline, avian, or exotic family member. In addition to veterinary services we offer boarding and grooming facilities on site. Our facility is currently owned and operated by Dr. Robert Merkin, and his son Dr. Graham Merkin.

Our family has been privileged to serve the Western Suburbs (Downers Grove, Westmont, Woodridge, Hinsdale, Oakbrook, Naperville, Lisle, Lombard, Clarendon Hills, Willowbrook and Darien) for over 50 years. In 1947, Dr. Victor Merkin (Robert Merkin's father) founded Downers Grove Animal Hospital. At the time, Downers Grove was an agricultural community, and Dr. Merkin spent most of his time visiting farms to care for livestock. As the suburban area grew, the practice changed to meet the need of the surrounding community.

Our family would be honored to help you to care for your four-legged family member.

BOARDING
Highest Quality Boarding and Grooming Facilities
Our professionally trained staff provides tender, loving care for your dog, cat, bird, or pocket pet.
Our kennel friends will be fed a top quality, commercial diet.
Your pet will be exercised in outdoor, covered runs.
While exercising, your pet's indoor quarters will be scientifically sanitized by our professional staff.
Dogs are exercised three times daily.
All boarders are kept in a completely controlled environment. All rooms are heated and air-conditioned.
Your pet will be observed by our staff veterinarians.
Your special pet will be protected against infectious diseases by our compulsory vaccination policy.
Boarding Policies
Check-in and Check-out
Much like a hotel, we charge for the day a pet enters our facility. We have an 11:00 A.M. check-out time.
Pets discharged after the 11:00 A.M. check-out time are charged for that day unless bathed or groomed that day.


Baths for Boarders
We would like to send your pet home with you clean and fresh. We offer a bath at a discounted rate for boarders.
If the bath is given on the check-out day, there will not be a boarding charge for that day.
If the bath is given on a day other than the check-out day, there will be a charge for the bath and that same day of boarding.
We give baths every day.


Blankets, Toys, etc.
We have blankets and towels for use by your pet.
If we keep one of your blankets or towels, it may be misplaced in the laundry, so it must have your name written on it with an indelible pen.
Toys also have the possibility of being misplaced.


Diets
We provide top quality diets for our kennel friends, so it is not necessary to bring your own diet.
If you choose to supply your own food, please bring only enough for your pet's stay.
