Testimonials
Rated 4.3 on Google.
In pet owners' own words, from Google.
We are delighted with the service and care we've received from RRAH. We have two very goofy dogs who are always getting into trouble so it is good to have a great team helping to keep them healthy. Both Dr. Slater and Dr. Laidlaw have been the best every time we've visited.
Dr. Hanna Laidlaw and Dr. Sarah Slater have been so incredible with our Bernese Mountain Dog. We've been bringing her here for over 2 years, and have had to visit many times due to digestion issues. Every time, they've treated her with care and compassion, consistently going above and beyond to find long-term solutions.
Had a mini health scare/emergency with one of our cats and contacted Rideau River Animal Hospital. We were able to get in same day within a matter of two hours. The staff were all very friendly and helpful.
