Hawthorne Quality Pet Care is an independently owned veterinary practice serving the South Bay with a focus on high-quality, compassionate care that remains practical and accessible for families.
We believe veterinary medicine should feel personal. Our team takes the time to explain diagnoses, treatment options, and costs clearly so pet owners can make informed decisions without feeling overwhelmed. Transparency, education, and trust are central to how we care for both pets and their families.
Whenever possible, we work to keep care under one roof by offering advanced diagnostics, dentistry, surgery, urgent care, and access to specialty procedures while continuing to manage each patient's ongoing care. This helps reduce unnecessary referrals, added expense, and fragmentation.
We are also committed to making veterinary care more approachable financially through straightforward estimates, flexible options, and thoughtful consideration of each family's circumstances.
Our goal is simple: to provide excellent veterinary medicine, educate and support pet owners, and care for every patient with the attention and compassion we would want for our own pets.
Care We Keep Under One Roof
Fewer referrals, less fragmentation.
Dentistry
Dental care is one of our core services, carried out within our practice rather than referred elsewhere.
Sunday Urgent Care
We are open on Sundays, 10:00am – 8:00pm, so high-level veterinary medicine is available when families actually need it — not simply when an appointment happens to be available.
Advanced Surgery
Advanced surgery and in-house diagnostics are performed on site, letting many pets receive more of their care in one familiar location.
A Neighborhood Location With a Long History
Hawthorne Quality Pet Care sits directly on Hawthorne Boulevard in Lawndale, in the heart of the South Bay, along the community's principal commercial corridor.
The building itself has a veterinary history that predates our practice. For many years it was known throughout the area as Hawthorne Dog & Cat Hospital, and generations of South Bay pet owners already knew the address as a place to bring their animals for care.
Rather than opening in an anonymous new development, we have taken over a familiar neighborhood veterinary location and are carrying that history forward — with a modernized practice, expanded urgent-care availability, advanced services, and continued independent ownership.
