WHO WE ARE: Since 1999, Northwoods Pet Care Center has delivered exceptional care to animals of all shapes and sizes. Founded by husband-and-wife team Dr. William Kolesar and Julie Kolesar, LVT, our practice was built on a shared passion for animals, a deep connection to our community, and a mission to provide high-quality veterinary care for everyone who walks through our doors—no matter how furry or feathered.
