Wellness Exams in Noblesville, IN, From Your Local Vet

A yearly nose-to-tail check for dogs and cats, with time for every question you bring.

Petfolk Veterinary & Urgent Care - Noblesville is a vet in Noblesville, IN, that does wellness exams for dogs and cats of every age. A wellness exam is a planned checkup while your pet seems healthy, so small changes get caught before they turn into sick visits.

Most adult pets need one exam a year. Puppies, kittens and pets 7 or older usually come in more often.

Call (463) 217-5944, book online or walk in for a checkup.

What does the vet check at a wellness exam?

At Petfolk Noblesville, the vet works from nose to tail and talks you through each step:

  1. Weight and body shape. A pound or two matters on a small dog or a cat, so the team compares it with last year.

  2. Eyes, ears and mouth. Tartar, red gums and loose teeth show up here first.

  3. Heart and lungs. The vet listens for murmurs, odd rhythms and noisy breathing.

  4. Belly, lymph nodes and joints. Gentle pressure finds lumps, pain or stiff hips.

  5. Skin and coat. Itchy spots, hot spots, fleas and new bumps get a look.

  6. The plan. Vaccines that are due, parasite prevention and any lab tests worth doing, with the reason for each one.

Fear Free handling is standard at every Petfolk clinic. Treats, slow movements and short breaks are part of the visit, and many exams can happen on the floor or on your lap.

How often should my dog or cat get a checkup?

At Petfolk Noblesville, a yearly wellness exam fits most healthy adult dogs and cats. Senior pets, usually 7 and older, do better with a checkup about every 6 months, because kidney, thyroid and joint changes can move fast. Puppies and kittens come in every few weeks during their first vaccine series.

Across Petfolk, senior cats get blood work at a wellness visit about twice as often as younger adult cats (34% compared with 18%, Oct 1, 2025 to Sep 30, 2026). Early lab results give the vet a baseline to compare with next year.

The doctors take their time with your pets to ensure you feel comfortable with the treatment plan. They love dogs and cats here!

Bring this to the visit

A little prep makes the visit faster and more useful:

  • Past records and vaccine dates, especially if you are new to Noblesville or switching clinics.

  • A list of food, treats, supplements and medicines, with doses.

  • A fresh stool sample in a sealed bag for a parasite check.

  • Notes on anything new: drinking more water, coughing, scooting, a lump you found while brushing.

  • A short video of an odd habit, like a cough or a limp that comes and goes.

If your dog walks the Midland Trace Trail or the river path at Forest Park, tell the vet. Time on trails and in tall grass changes which tick and leptospirosis protection makes sense. The same goes for cats who slip outside, dogs who board while you travel, and pets who swim at Morse Park & Beach in summer.

What does a wellness exam cost?

Wellness exams start at $99 at Petfolk Noblesville, or are included with PetfolkCare, which starts at $199 a year. Vaccines and lab tests are priced on their own, and nothing is added without asking you first. You'll get an estimate before any test or treatment. The final bill can differ if the plan changes during the visit. Petfolk accepts major cards, Apple Pay and CareCredit financing.

When a checkup is not the right visit

A wellness exam is for a pet who seems well. If your pet is vomiting, limping, not eating or acting off, book a sick visit or walk in for pet urgent care in Noblesville instead. Same-day appointments are available.

For trouble breathing, collapse, a seizure that will not stop, or a suspected toxin, call a 24-hour emergency hospital such as MedVet Indianapolis on Mayflower Park Dr in Carmel, and head there right away.
