About Us · Chantilly, VA
Nova Pets Health Center has been independently owned and operated in Chantilly, Virginia since 2001. We're not a franchise, not a corporate chain, and not a revolving door of rotating staff. We're a veterinary practice built on relationships — with the pets we care for and the families who trust us with them.
Meet your veterinarian
Dr. Masood has been practicing veterinary medicine for over 35 years. Before focusing on companion animals, he provided full medical and surgical care for zoo animals — primates, large mammals, everything in between. That breadth of experience is rare, and it's why he takes on cases that most practices simply aren't equipped for.
He completed a clinical internship at Cornell University's Hospital for Animals (ECFVG), is a proud member of the AVMA, and has been the same familiar face at Nova Pets since we opened in Chantilly in 2001. He'll tell you exactly what's wrong. He'll give you real options. And he'll work with you — not around you — to find the best path forward for your pet and your family.
Dr. Masood has performed over 1,000 CCL surgeries across 25+ years of orthopedic practice — a procedure most general practitioners refer out. He performs complex dental extractions and oral surgery, soft tissue surgery, and has a particular depth of experience with exotic animals that's genuinely uncommon in Northern Virginia.
Our story
Nova Pets Health Center opened in Chantilly, Virginia in 2001 with a straightforward idea: build a veterinary practice where pets and their families are known by name, where the same doctor shows up every time, and where the quality of care isn't compromised by the pressures of a corporate model.
More than 25 years later, that's still what we are. Independently owned. Family operated. The same team that has been here from the beginning — and a standard of care that general practitioners across Northern Virginia trust enough to refer their most complex cases to us.
“The same doctor. The same team. The same building — for over 25 years.”
What we do
Nova Pets is a general veterinary practice with genuine depth in a few areas most practices can't match. Here's what we're known for.
New patients are always welcome. Schedule an appointment or stop by — we're here Monday through Saturday.
