Riverside Animal Hospital is located at 670 Woolwich St Unit-2, Guelph, ON N1H 3Z1. The closest listed public transport hub is Guelph Central Station, a train station about a 32-minute walk away, so most pet owners may prefer driving or checking a local bus route through Google Maps or Guelph Transit.

To book an appointment at Riverside Animal Hospital, call the clinic to enquire about available times. Reviews mention that the team often accommodates same-day or urgent visits, but availability should always be confirmed directly.
Consultation fees vary by clinic in Canada and veterinary fees are not regulated by a government-published fee schedule; provincial health insurance such as OHIP does not cover pets. Call the clinic for a current quote, and for dental work, surgery, diagnostics, or other procedures, ask for an itemized written estimate before approving treatment. Pet insurance and third-party payment-plan options exist in Canada, but confirm directly whether any option applies to your visit.
Canadian veterinary clinics commonly accept Interac debit, Visa or Mastercard, and tap-and-go payments such as Apple Pay or Google Pay, while some may support pet-insurance direct claims or third-party payment plans. Call ahead to confirm which payment methods Riverside Animal Hospital currently accepts.
Riverside Animal Hospital is described as offering same-day and urgent care appointments, but the review summary notes it is not a dedicated emergency hospital. For severe after-hours emergencies, such as laboured breathing, pet owners should consider a dedicated emergency veterinary hospital; after-hours emergency care is typically more expensive than regular appointments.
Riverside Animal Hospital is noted for dentistry and dental extractions, spay and neuter surgeries, same-day and urgent care appointments, rescue and foster cat care, in-house diagnostics and imaging, and low-stress handling for anxious pets. Ask the clinic directly which services are appropriate for your pet’s condition.
