A Life Dedicated to Animal Care
Dr. Jennifer Boland, DVM, is the heart of Kindred Pet Care. With more than two decades of experience in small animal medicine, she has built a reputation throughout St. Charles, IL, and the surrounding Fox Valley communities for her calm demeanor, clinical expertise, and deep compassion for both pets and their people.
Dr. Boland earned her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree from the University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine. Over the years, she has worked in both high-volume hospitals and boutique practices, giving her a well-rounded understanding of how to deliver quality veterinary care with efficiency and kindness. Her interests include internal medicine, feline behavior, pain management, and senior pet wellness—though she’s equally happy welcoming your brand-new puppy or kitten to the hospital for their first exam.
What truly sets Dr. Boland apart is her ability to form lasting bonds with the families she serves. She takes time to listen, answer questions, and develop custom treatment plans that align with both medical best practices and the unique needs of every pet. Many of her clients have trusted her with multiple generations of pets—and they’ll tell you there’s no other veterinarian in St. Charles, IL they’d rather see.
When she’s not at the hospital, Dr. Boland enjoys spending time with her own pets, exploring the outdoors, and participating in local events around the St. Charles and Elgin area. She is a proud member of the Illinois State Veterinary Medical Association and remains committed to lifelong learning to ensure her patients receive the latest in veterinary science.
