Our History
At Mills Animal Hospital Marietta, our commitment to providing exceptional veterinary care is matched only by our passion for creating a welcoming and compassionate environment for pets and their families. We aim to make every patient and client feel like a part of our extended family while promoting long, happy, and healthy lives for the pets we care for.
Our bilingual team (English and Spanish) brings a wealth of experience, professionalism, and personalized service to the table, all within a fun and family-oriented atmosphere.
How It All Began
The journey of Mills Animal Hospital Marietta began with the childhood dream of a young Michelle Mills. Even as a 4-year-old, Dr. Mills envisioned a place where quality veterinary care would be delivered with love, compassion, and a sense of family. In July 2017, this dream materialized in Acworth, GA, where Dr. Mills established her first practice, creating a close-knit team that felt like an extended family.
As the practice flourished, our reputation in the community grew, and we continued to build strong relationships with our clients and their pets. Now, we are excited to bring that same level of care and community to Marietta, expanding our family to serve even more pets and their families.
Growing with Our Community
Community involvement has always been at the heart of what we do. Over the years, we have partnered with local schools like Pickets Mill Elementary School and sponsored sports teams at Allatoona and North Paulding. Our annual open house and fall festival in October have become beloved events, featuring Halloween costume contests, kids' activities, a petting zoo, a photo booth, and much more.
Supporting our younger generation is a core value at Mills Animal Hospital Marietta. Through our teddy bear surgery demonstrations, we inspire children to dream big, with many leaving our events determined to become veterinarians themselves.
Additionally, we proudly support local shelters, providing essential veterinary care to help animals find their forever homes.
Our Recognitions
We are honored to have received several prestigious awards, including Dr. Michelle Mills being recognized with the UGA Distinguished Alumni Wellness in Practice Award, and our practice being named Best Veterinary Practice in Georgia in 2023.
Looking Ahead
As we continue to grow, we have listened to your feedback about longer wait times and crowding in our Acworth location. In response, we have added two new exam rooms to reduce wait times and ensure a more comfortable experience.
Dr. Mills has been hard at work, dedicating her time to purchasing property, designing, and planning a new facility in Marietta, GA. This location holds special significance, as it is the very building where Dr. Mills began her journey into veterinary medicine at just 16 years old. Now, she returns to her roots, bringing her dream full circle by expanding our practice to this new location.
We are incredibly grateful for the continued support from our community and are excited to see what the future holds as we embark on this new chapter in Marietta.
