Dr. Stella Pettid’s lifelong animal enthusiasm began with both dogs and cats in the home. There was always a furry critter by her side and she joyfully helped her family take in every stray that was to be found. After beginning to volunteer with a dog rescue, she was gifted with the chance to show a champion Great Pyrenees as a junior exhibitor for a season. The competition world then became a passion for Dr. Stella although continuing with horses rather than her furry companions.

While performing with her horses and as a professional equine groom, she came into contact with some incredible practitioners that helped animals feel and perform their best. After years of watching the benefit of bodywork, specifically chiropractic, in conjunction with excellent vet care, Dr. Stella decided she had to take her care of animals to the next level.

Knowing she wanted to serve animals with chiropractic care she enrolled at Cleveland University to begin her journey in becoming a certified animal chiropractor. She currently shares her life with a lovely rescue cat, Oliver and her horse, Frodo. Dr. Stella graduated from Cleveland University with her Doctorate of Chiropractic, then obtained certification in animal chiropractic by the IVCA (International Veterinary Chiropractic Association).

Dr. Stella is thrilled and honored to be joining forces with Dr. Emily McLeod of All Creatures Chiropractic, Inc to bring this amazing form of wellness care to your furry and hooved friends and is licensed in both KS and MO.
