Fort Henry Animal Hospital is very proud to introduce Kayla Swanay DVM, the newest addition to our talented and caring veterinary team.

Dr. Kayla earned her undergraduate degree from the University of Nevada, Reno before moving to the East Coast to pursue her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine at Auburn University, graduating in 2015. Since then, she has been proud to serve the Tri-Cities communities, developing special interests in soft-tissue surgery, dentistry, and preventive medicine.

In her spare time, she is a volunteer puppy raiser for the Guide Dog Foundation. She helps future service dogs gain fundamental skills and experiences that will allow them to change someone else’s life for the better. She also enjoys rescue and hospice care, and usually has at least one senior/rescue pet in her home at any given time. She spends quiet days on her farm with her dogs, cats, miniature pig, ball python snakes, as well as her horses. She is a fan of true crime, traveling, cross stitching, performance arts, outdoor adventures and reading.

Dr. Kayla Swanay understands the important role pets play within the family and is dedicated to helping them live long, healthy, and happy lives. Clients are encouraged to make an appointment for their beloved canine or feline companions so that Dr. Kayla can work with them to develop a personalized plan that ensures each pet receives the best care possible. Please join us in welcoming her to the Fort Henry Family.

Pet Boarding in Kingsport, TN

At Fort Henry Animal Hospital in Kingsport, TN, we provide exceptional pet boarding services for dogs and cats. Our dedicated team ensures that your furry friends are well-cared for in a safe, comfortable environment.

Pet Boarding

Dogs are let outside individually three times a day while our caring staff tidy their “houses” and prepare the meals as instructed.
Exercise yards are enclosed by 6-foot fences with a security feature at the top, allowing pets to run and play, unrestrained by leashes.
A separate “quiet” room is provided for feline visitors.
The kennel team receives cross-training in the hospital, to better care for pets.
Time is taken to get to know the pets in order to quickly notice if any problems arise during their stay.
Most importantly, we treat them as if they’re our own.
