Our goal is to be your partner in taking care of your pet’s physical and mental wellbeing, so you can enjoy many happy years together. So, whether your pet needs a checkup with a doctor… a caring team and top-notch medical treatments when they’re ill… or, some advice on the best food for them or how to care for them at home — we’re here for you! At Riverside Animal Hospital, we see dogs and cats. And, we’ll strive to make their visit a comfortable and positive experience. Come in and get to know us, and see why both you and your pet will love coming here!

  • After seeing multiple vets while living in the area and never feeling totally satisfied with them I found Dr. Crance at Riverside Animal Hospital.  From the receptionists to the vet tech to Dr. Crance the experience couldn't have been a better experience.  Dr. Crance was honest and explained and educated us on everything he talked about.  His prices are fair and his hospital is clean.  I am so glad we found this vet.  Highly recommend.
