Life Quality Pet Care
About Life Quality Pet Care
Life Quality Pet Care is a specialty veterinary practice based in Minden, Nevada, serving pets and families throughout Carson Valley — including Gardnerville, Minden, and Carson City. The practice is led by Dr. Dawn Gleason, DVM, CVA, CVPP, an integrative veterinary medicine specialist who was recognized as a 2019 Carson Valley's Most Remarkable Women Award winner by The Record-Courier for her contributions to veterinary medicine and the local community. Dr. Gleason's approach integrates conventional Western medicine with evidence-informed complementary therapies to address pain, improve mobility, and support quality of life in aging or chronically ill pets.
The practice is especially focused on pets who may not have responded fully to traditional treatments, offering acupuncture, laser therapy, customized rehabilitation programs, and homeopathy as part of individualized care plans. Life Quality Pet Care has also been featured in discussions about senior dog care by the Grey Muzzle Organization through RehabPet.com. For families navigating the end of their pet's life, the practice provides peaceful euthanasia — available either at the clinic on Meridian Boulevard or at the family's home, ensuring that the experience can happen in the setting that feels right for the pet and the family.

What to Expect
Families seeking end-of-life support through Life Quality Pet Care can request an appointment either at the Minden clinic (2240 Meridian Blvd, Suite D) or arrange for Dr. Gleason to come to your home, offering a more familiar and less stressful environment for your pet during their final moments. For families still working through difficult decisions about their pet's condition, the practice also conducts quality-of-life assessments — holistic evaluations that help you understand your pet's current comfort levels and explore options for pain management, palliative care, or end-of-life planning. Dr. Gleason's integrative background means care plans are tailored to the individual pet rather than a one-size-fits-all protocol.
