TheraVet Acres
TheraVet Acres is located on 30 beautiful acres in Penfield, NY. It is also known as 4PawsFarm and is the home of Dr. Browne, her husband Dana, and their numerous animals. This setting allows us to provide you and your pet with the love and attention you both deserve.

Our vision when creating TheraVet Acres was to provide a place where people and their pets could come to find compassionate care and a sense of belonging in a home-away from home environment. When you arrive at TheraVet Acres, you will most likely be greeted by our family of dogs and will be treated with kindness and understanding.
That sense is enhanced by the quality of care that we provide to our patients; we treat your pet as if it is one of our own. |
