Established in 1947, Jones Animal Hospital provides a full range of veterinary medicine, surgical and hospitalization service for a full range of pets. This capability includes medicated baths, the latest in parasite control, dental care (including ultrasonic teeth scaling), lab, pharmacy, x-ray, anesthesia, sterile surgery, education, hospitalization and specialist referral services.

Many families lead "non-traditional" lives and have adopted "non-traditional" pets. At Jones Animal Hospital, it does not matter if your pet swims, slithers, walks, runs or flies, we strive to provide your pet with the quality healthcare you have come to expect for a family member.

Full service veterinary medical facility, serving the greater Puget Sound region since 1947. We see all companion pets, including pocket pets, reptiles, and other exotics.

Dr. Allison Moore

Veterinarian, DVM

Dodie Atkinson

Receptionist

Whether your calling to make an appointment, paying your bill, or looking for the latest in flea control, Dodie is ready to greet you with a smile.

Dodie comes from a family that always had pets, often far outnumbering the human family members. From horses to dogs, to sugar gliders, Dodie dealt with it all. Dodie was involved with 4-H horse & dog clubs as a youth.

Dodie was not looking for a career in the animal care industry, but J.A.H. was looking for a hard-working receptionist that was comfortable with animals, a match made in heaven.

Dodie keeps busy at home with her two children, husband Robert, and animal friends. Dodie also is dabbling with "agility" with her dog "Kiera".

Paul F. Nimmo

Practice Manager

Taking care of the client and their pets is important to Paul, starting at Jones Animal Hospital as a client first, then employee.
Paul is in charge of the "unseen" duty list, which includes keeping the hospital staffed and stocked to meet your needs.
Paul is a professional volunteer. When not in the office, you can bet he is either out at a 4-H event working with youth, or working as a board member organizing the Pierce County Fair. Paul was recently appointed to a Trustee position with the Washington State 4-H Fair. His activity has not gone unrewarded, as Paul was recently recognized as an outstanding Pierce County Volunteer. Somewhere along the way, he still finds time to show dogs in A.K.C. breed and obedience trials.
