Baldwin Park residents can access Baldwin Park free vet services this weekend during a community animal care event focused on preventive health for cats and dogs.
The City of Baldwin Park, in partnership with the Los Angeles Department of Animal Care and Control, will host Vet at the Park on Sunday, Feb. 8, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Morgan Park. The event will provide free veterinary exams, core vaccines, and microchipping for local pets while supplies last.
Baldwin Park free vet services are designed to reduce barriers to routine animal care at a time when veterinary costs continue to rise across Los Angeles County. A standard clinic visit can cost hundreds of dollars before medication or follow-up treatment, placing preventive care out of reach for many families.
Free Vet Services Address Community Need
Services at Vet at the Park will be delivered on site by Wallis Annenberg PetSpace, a nonprofit organization dedicated to strengthening the relationship between people and pets. The organization operates a community-centered campus in Playa Vista and provides veterinary care, pet adoptions, training classes, and public education programs.
Beyond mobile veterinary services, Annenberg PetSpace focuses on lifelong pet support, emphasizing early intervention, responsible ownership, and access to professional resources. More information about its programs and mission is available at https://annenbergpetspace.org/.
The event is part of a broader Baldwin Park free vet initiative aimed at improving animal welfare while supporting residents who may delay care due to cost or transportation challenges.
DACC Serves Baldwin Park Residents
Los Angeles Department of Animal Care and Control is one of the largest animal care agencies in the nation, operating seven animal care centers and serving more than three million residents countywide. Baldwin Park’s population is nearly 75 percent Latino, a community that local officials say benefits from neighborhood-based services that reduce access gaps.
Vet at the Park aligns with DACC’s Socially Conscious Animal Sheltering approach, which prioritizes humane treatment, community engagement, and improved outcomes for animals through prevention-focused services.
Event Guidelines And Attendance Limits
To maintain safety and efficiency, all dogs must remain on leashes and cats must be kept in secure carriers at all times. Organizers are asking residents not to bring sick animals and strongly recommend face masks for attendees.
Attendance is limited and services will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis. The care line is expected to close once 200 dogs or 50 cats are registered. One adult must be present for every two adult dogs or for each litter of puppies brought to the event.
Residents planning to attend Baldwin Park free vet services are encouraged to arrive early and prepare for potential wait times. Chairs and umbrellas are recommended for comfort while waiting.
City officials said community-based animal care events help keep pets healthy, reduce shelter intake, and strengthen neighborhood connections. Vet at the Park reflects an ongoing effort to make essential services accessible while supporting responsible pet ownership throughout Baldwin Park.
