We utilize digital radiography and in-house laboratory capabilities for rapid, accurate diagnoses.

Best vet practice! We fully trust their judgement and are so grateful for Dr. Richards. Without her expertise, our older cat would've had a tough time beating mammory cancer. The last couple years, they have always been so accommodating with us. Dr. Richards has been so kind and understanding, and always advising us to make the best decision for our cats while also not breaking the bank. We love this place!

I've been taking my cats to Dover vet for over 30 years and five cats now. The doctors and staff treat everyone with care and respect and the patients like they are truly our kids. I had to say goodbye to three of my cats and the staff was there with me for every step making it much easier loosing my best friends. My new kittens received all the oohs and ahhs they needed to feel loved and trust. Everything is gone over before anything is done but bottom line is Dover Vet really cares about both the animals and their parents.

The staff was very pleasant and attentive. Dr. McCarthy was great. She took the time to review everything I need to have in order to get my sweet kitty over to Hawaii.

I brought my recent rescue dog to Dover Veterinary Hospital for concerns of allergies and an overall wellness check. Every single staff member was very kind and helpful. They got me an appointment that day! Dr. Richards is amazing. Kind, knowledgeable, and understanding. The facility is clean and comfortable. Most importantly they treated Mattie and I with such kindness. Thank you all so much!

Moved to the area in 2020 from Colorado. Started taking all three of our dogs here, and they are by far one of the best vets I've ever been too. Prices are reasonable and they do not try to up-sale you on frivolous things your pet doesn't need. Also, Dr. Rennie is absolutely amazing with our pets by far the best vet we've ever seen. They truly care about your pets. Highly recommend their practice!
