Clarendon Animal Care will soon have more space for its four-legged clients.
The veterinary business opened in January 2015. Two and a half years later, it is continuing to grow and is set to expand to the space next door, said Dr. Kayleen Gloor, one of its founders.
The office’s expansion, into the former storefront of a sign shop, will increase its space by 70 percent. It will go from having three exam rooms to five exam rooms, while there will also be a larger reception area and more spacious treatment spaces. The center is also planning to add a fifth veterinarian to its team by the end of this month.
“[The expansion] was out of need,” Gloor said. “I have a hard time saying ‘no’ to [animals] that need to be seen.”
Gloor believes that the fifth vet and added space will make things less stressful for the office’s staff, as they will be better able to share the workload.
“I think our and our staff’s families will appreciate a little better work/life balance,” Gloor said.
Gloor said she hopes for the construction to be over and the new space ready to use by early next month.
