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.

Fort Henry Animal Hospital is very clean and hospitable. They have great service. I’ve never had to wait for an appointment and can walk right in with my dog and I’m not there for a lengthy amount of time for routine visits. The staff is very nice and professional and courteous. The atmosphere is great there.

Dr. Carpenter and her staff were awesome. They were kind and caring to both my dog and me. In an urgent situation, they did everything possible to care for my dog and prevent the need for specialist intervention. My dog is now recovered and doing great. I’m so thankful for Ft. Henry Animal Hospital.

I use this clinic for my pets’ preventative care and have recently used their boarding service. The entire staff is kind and accommodating with pet care as well as scheduling needs. They are sure to give your fur babies loving care and make you feel like family.

My wife and I absolutely love Fort Henry Animal Hospital! We brought our new puppy, Maverick, there for a check-up and vaccines. The entire staff was so friendly and helpful—they definitely made us feel at home. We would highly recommend you go there with your animals!
