Our History
In January of 1999 Dr. Debra Junkins started her practice in Huntley. She was aware of the “boom” going on in the friendly village of Huntley, including the development of Del Webb’s Sun City, and thought it would be the perfect place to start a business. She called her new practice Pet Vet Animal Clinic and Mobile Practice, Ltd. because she believed it was important to provide at home veterinary services as well as the typical in-clinic setting. For the first 6 months Pet Vet was a mobile practice only; in June of 1999 leased office space was ready and the clinic became a reality. The office was located in a small strip mall and had a total staff of 3: Dr. Deb, Michelle, her assistant, and Diana, her receptionist/office manager.
Due to the overwhelming response from her clients, the business quickly outgrew that facility. In addition to needing more space, Dr. Deb wanted to provide additional services to her clients and their furry family members. A new 6,200ft free standing clinic was designed and built in Huntley. In April of 2004, Dr. Deb moved the practice to its current location.
