Since 1998, we have been a staple of veterinary care in Pickerington with the goal of providing excellent care, and state of the art medicine to our patients. We are a family owned and run practice. The goals of our practice are to provide excellent care for our patients and clients, and to educate our clients to help them make the best choices to provide for their pets.
When you arrive at Cross Creeks Animal Hospital you will be greeted by our reception staff. They will be able to get your pet checked in and ready for their appointment. If you are here for an appointment with the doctor a nurse will come and help you into an exam room. They will speak with you to help find the best way the doctor can help your pet.
Cross Creeks Animal Hospital has a complete surgical suite. Because of this, we are able to perform many different types of surgical procedures. During these procedures your pets are monitored by our state of the art surgical equipment that is being operated by our trained nurses. Our dental table allows us to work to improve the health of your pet's mouth.
We offer a small boarding facility that is limited to our current patients. You can go on vacation with the confidence that your pet will be well taken care of by the same people who provide your pet's health care needs. This is especially nice for any of our patients who require a wide range, or number of treatments on a regular bases.

I couldn't be more happier with my experience here at this veterinarian. We never have to wait in the lobby for more than 3min. Dr. Ben is so compassionate, knowledgeable, and nice! He's not rushing you out the door during your appointment. The place is always clean. The staff is always friendly and personable. My puppy and I give this place 5 stars!

You never realize how hard it is to lose your pet until it happens. I am so thankful for the patience of these ladies that handled our sweet Sophie last week. We had her for 18 long years, she followed my oldest to college. The package we received when we picked up her ashes was the most thoughtful thing I have ever seen! Thank you ladies! I will never forget your kindness and your thoughtfulness during such a sad time for our family!

Our poor boy Charlie had a hematoma in his ear flap! But as usual, Dr. Shields was very reassuring and kind, and fully informed us of all our options. That's what I really like about Cross Creeks: they never push you into making a decision that would be most lucrative for them. They make recommendations and lay out all the alternatives and timelines, triggers to watch for that should prompt you to bring your pet in for the next level of treatment, and they outline costs honestly and matter-of-factly.

This transparency and lack of self-serving interests in giving us advice and guidance is EXACTLY why we trust Drs. Shields and Shields with all our fur-babies. This approach nurtures trust and compassionately takes the limitations and capacity of the owners into consideration. This is how we know that when difficult decisions will have to someday be made, Cross Creeks will give us the best, most trustworthy, and caring info.

Thank you, Dr. Shields! P.S. - Charlie is going to be just fine! Hematomas - like a blood blister - often resolve on their own as the fluid is reabsorbed by the body. In case you were worried!

My sister in law recommended this father/son practice. We dealt with the father. This is a wonderful practice! Everyone is so friendly and professional. Our dog needed some dental work and cleaning. They removed a number of teeth (old dog) including his"wisdom" teeth. He recovered so well due to their expert care. I will be taking all of my animals here moving forward and would highly recommend this office to other pet owners. And for a little icing on the cake, they're very affordable too!

Friendly staff and caring doctor. My cat is not a good a good traveler so vet visits are traumatic. What sold me was how the doctor noticed and during the check up he moved slowly, talked softly, and really won my cats trust.

I recently switched my husky to this vet office with Dr. Shields. 10/10 recommend. She's diabetic. I feel much more comfortable with my decision to have her in their care. Very knowledgeable, patient, and kind!
