Pets In Stitches at 8265 Springboro Pike in Miamisburg will have its final day of appointments on July 15, according to Dr. Danielle Rastetter and the Pets In Stitches Team.

Rastetter told News Center 7 that the business is closing down for economic reasons.

“Being a small solo veterinarian business with the rising costs of services and supplies is not sustainable for Pets In Stitches,” Rastetter said.

“You’ve helped make Pets In Stitches a place where meaningful care happened every day, and it has been an honor to be part of your pets’ journeys,” the post reads.
