Meet the Team At Dakota Paws, we believe better care starts with two things: medicine that treats every pet as an individual, and a partnership that includes you in every step. We’re here to listen, explain, and work with you—not just for you. Built differently, on purpose. Request Appointment

Every case at Dakota Paws starts with a question: What’s really going on? 

We take the time to figure that out—with slower appointments when it matters, clear explanations, and treatment plans built with you, not handed to you. Our clients often tell us it’s the first time someone walked them through their pet’s condition in a way that actually clicked.

We see education as part of the job. When you feel heard and understand what’s happening, you can make the best decisions for your pet.
A Practice That Pays Attention

For Pet Owners Who Want More Than Convenient

Our clients aren’t just looking for the closest clinic. They want care that feels personal, thoughtful, and steady—where they’re part of the process, not just along for the ride. If that’s what you’ve been missing, you’ll feel the difference here.

You’ll find:

  • A care team that knows you and your pet—not just your chart
  • Plans built through conversation, not assumptions
  • Updates you don’t have to chase down
  • A culture rooted in kindness and mutual respect
  • Relationships that last longer than a single visit

A team that feels like a team. Familiar faces. Consistent care. Follow-through you can count on.

That’s what happens when a clinic values its people and gives them the support they need to do their best work.

Kindness is part of that, too. We treat every client with respect and patience, and we expect the same in return—for our team, our patients, and the kind of community we’re building together.

We offer full-service veterinary care for dogs and cats in Watford City and the surrounding communities. From wellness and dentistry to diagnostics and surgery, our goal is always the same: to provide high-quality medicine with clear communication and consistent follow-through.

Whether you're welcoming a new puppy or kitten, managing a chronic condition, or simply looking for a vet who takes the time to listen, you’ll find that here. We’re proud to serve pet owners across McKenzie County with care that’s thorough, thoughtful, and built on trust.

If you’re looking for a vet who treats you like a partner and your pet like family, we’d love to meet you.
