Boston Veterinary Care
at the Animal Rescue League of Boston
The neighborhood vet that gives back.
Boston Veterinary Care at the Animal Rescue League of Boston (BVC at ARL) is a full-service, high-quality veterinary hospital. While we offer the same comprehensive services as any top-tier clinic, there is one big difference: 100% of our proceeds go directly to helping animals in need.
When you choose BVC for your pet’s wellness exams, care for illness or injury, dental, or surgery, your vet bill becomes a life-saving donation.
You get the best care for your furry, feathered, and scaled family members, and you help ARL provide a second chance for animals awaiting families of their own.
