For over 40 years, Nonantum Veterinary Clinic has proudly served Landenberg and the surrounding tri-state region with care that feels like home.
Nonantum (Non-an’-tum) is an Algonquin Native American word that means “blessing” or “prayer.” Nonantum Veterinary Clinic had its humble beginnings in 1983 when Dr. Debby Roberts began practicing out of her home on Nonantum Farm. The practice soon needed more space, and a chicken house was converted. In 1990, Dr. Chris Manning joined Nonantum and later became Dr. Roberts’ business partner in 2001. Over the years, Nonantum Veterinary Clinic has added talented doctors and staff to accommodate the community’s growing need for veterinary services. In 2008, the practice moved to a renovated barn on the same property.
From wellness visits and advanced surgery to holistic therapies, we’re here to guide you through every stage of your pet’s life with honesty, empathy, and a deep respect for the bond you share.
We’re more than just experienced; we’re invested. Many of our team members have been part of the Nonantum family for over a decade, and that consistency shows in everything we do. You’ll always be greeted by familiar faces, kind voices, and a gentle, thoughtful approach that puts pets (and people) at ease.
At Nonantum Veterinary Clinic, we combine traditional veterinary expertise with compassionate care and forward-thinking services that put your pet’s whole health first. We consider it our honor to serve the people and pets of our community.
We’ve been a trusted part of the Chester County community since 1983, caring for pets from Landenberg, Kennett Square, Avondale, Hockessin, and beyond. Families return to us year after year, and pet after pet, because they know we treat every animal like our own.
Our clinic offers chiropractic care, acupuncture, and canine rehabilitation as part of our integrative approach to pet wellness. Whether your pet is managing pain, recovering from injury, or simply aging gracefully, these gentle, noninvasive therapies can help restore comfort and improve quality of life.
We take the time to get to know you and your pet, so care is never one-size-fits-all. From routine visits to more complex needs, our team focuses on comfort, clear communication, and treatment plans tailored to your pet’s unique lifestyle and health.
We’re excited to welcome Dr. Christopher Phelan as our new Medical Director. Appointments with Dr. Phelan are now available!
