What Our Pet Parents Have To Say

“

We had an excellent experience with the team at Riverside Pet Care during our dog’s surgery. From the very beginning, the staff was kind, attentive, and took the time to explain everything clearly, which gave us so much peace of mind.

They treated our dog with genuine care and compassion, and it was obvious that our pet’s comfort and well-being were their top priority. The surgery went smoothly, and the post-operative instructions were thorough and easy to follow. We also appreciated the follow-up and how available they were to answer questions during recovery.

We are incredibly grateful for the professionalism, skill, and kindness shown by everyone. We wouldn’t hesitate to trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone, especially for something as stressful as surgery!

Amazing place! I took my cat in for a sore foot they where able to check on him the same day I called. The staff was very welcoming and kind! They even send text to check up on your pet the day after! 100% recommend and I will be sticking with them as my primary vet!

Highly recommend! We had to take our dog here while she was pregnant for an infection because our normal vet didn’t feel comfortable with touching it while our dog was pregnant…I can’t say enough good things! They were able to get us in quickly, helped her feel better and gave us so much good info! We love our normal vet but this place almost knocked them out of that place.

The staff here is kind and caring. They also communicated well with us from booking the appointment, answering questions, and the in-person visit. So far, we have taken two pets here, our third pet is stubborn so hopefully they still like us after her first visit.
