About Us

Our Story

Word travels fast when a veterinarian lives in the neighborhood. After helping their neighbors with some veterinary advice, the Pearls were soon referred to as “the vets next door” in their community. Spending several years practicing in Manatee County, Dr. Zach and Dr. Morgan decided to open Vet Next Door as a way to continue providing quality veterinary care to more pets in the Parrish area. In a time where more and more businesses are turning to corporate models, Vet Next Door has dedicated their focus on individualized care, exceptional service, and genuine connections. Drs. Zachary and Morgan Pearl are a husband-and-wife team who strive to maintain the highest standards in veterinary care while providing true connections and a small-town family feel.
