About
Meet Dr. Jake Labriola, DVM
Providing compassionate, dignified care for pets and the families who love them.
A Local Veterinarian with a Gentle Touch
Dr. Jake Labriola established Calm Paws Vet with a singular mission: to provide a peaceful alternative to the stress of the veterinary clinic. A resident of the Setauket area, Dr. Jake understands the deep bond between pets and their families. After years in general practice, he realized that the end-of-life journey deserved more time, more privacy, and more comfort than a busy clinic could provide. He founded Calm Paws Vet to ensure that every pet can say goodbye in the place they feel safest—home.
Why I Choose End-of-Life Care
Helping a family say goodbye is a profound responsibility. I believe that euthanasia is not just a medical procedure, but a final act of love. My goal is to remove the fear and pain from that process, allowing you to focus entirely on the love you share with your pet.
