About

Serving Lockport, Burbank, Joliet, and the surrounding areas

At Premier Paws we lead with compassion in all that we do, and we are by your side every step of the way.

We combine our love of animals, extensive veterinary experience, and cutting-edge equipment—including our surgical suite—to perform a comprehensive range of treatments and procedures in an environment that is comfortable for both you and your pet. Our clinic is equipped with all of the tools needed for safe and effective treatments, laboratory testing, and more.



We believe veterinary medicine is not “one size fits all” and thus offer medical evaluations and customized care tailored to both your needs and those of your pet.


As of September 2023, we are pleased to announce the addition of Premier Paws of Joliet, formerly Timberline Animal Hospital! Dr. Roger Hitt and his team look forward to continuing to work with the surrounding community.
