Arya Pet Clinic

If you go to the Masoodpur Market in Vasant Kunj, you will find our pet clinic sitting there among the other shops. It is a busy little spot in Delhi where people bring their dogs and cats when something is wrong. The floor is made of hard tile because it is easier to mop up after the animals, and we have to mop a lot. There is usually a dog barking in the waiting area or a cat hissing from inside a carrier. We have a small exam table and some shelves filled with pet food and medicine bottles. The air smells a bit like antiseptic and wet fur, which is just how a vet clinic is supposed to be. The market outside is always loud with people shouting and cars honking, but inside we just focus on the animals. Our desk is cluttered with files and leashes that people have left behind over the years. We don't have a fancy waiting room with coffee, just some stools and a few posters about heartworms on the wall. The staff wears scrubs that usually have a bit of hair stuck to them by the end of the day. It’s a straightforward place where we do what needs to be done for the pets in Vasant Kunj. We stay open late sometimes when someone has an emergency, and the streetlights outside flicker quite a bit.
