About Providence Animal Hospital

Welcome to Providence Animal Hospital — a locally owned, award-winning veterinary hospital serving Mt. Juliet, TN, and surrounding communities including Hermitage, Lebanon, Old Hickory, Smyrna, and beyond.

Compassionate Veterinary Care Rooted in Mt. Juliet

Voted Best of the Best Veterinary Clinic in Middle Tennessee for three consecutive years (2022–2024), and accredited by the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA), our clinic is recognized for meeting the highest standards in veterinary excellence.

But what truly sets us apart? Above all, it’s our unwavering commitment to nurturing the bond between you and your pet.

Our Story: Where Purpose Meets Passion

Providence Animal Hospital began as a vision of Dr. Aaron Hollis, even before he was a veterinary school student. His goal was to establish a veterinary hospital that not only provides the very best medical care for pets, but also cares for and enriches the lives of the people who own them. With the emerging significance of the human-pet bond, Dr. Hollis recognizes his duties as a pet health care provider as well as being a source of support and education for pet owners.

Providence Animal Hospital opened its doors in the summer of 2010 with a mission to provide a place where you and your pet are genuinely cared for, and you are welcomed and supported as an active participant in your friend’s care. We’ve planned this facility to serve as a longstanding resource in the community, and our veterinary hospital is the first premier animal health hospital in Wilson County to be built with environmental sustainability in mind.

Personalized Care For Every Step of Your Pet’s Journey

Pet owners face constant challenges, whether it’s keeping up with rapidly evolving wellness standards, providing optimal nutrition and training, or recognizing early symptoms of illness. Our team at Providence Animal Hospital strives to be your advocate and source of support in managing your pet’s health.

We start by building a trusted relationship with you and your pet. This includes getting to know you and your friend by inviting you to get to know our facility and pet care team. We take the time to listen to your concerns and thoroughly inform you about all aspects of your pet’s care.

Our team is committed to educating our clients on keeping their pets healthy year-round with good nutrition and exercise. Providence Animal Hospital stays on top of the latest advances in veterinary technology and, above all, remembers that all animals and pets need to be treated with loving care in every check-up, procedure, or surgery.
