About Us |
At West Roseville Veterinary Hospital, we are dedicated to providing the highest quality of veterinary care for our patients, and to maintaining a professional environment that is characterized by compassion, trust, and respect for our clients and team members. We also recognize the importance of teamwork and staff education in maintaining these core values. We are a full service veterinary hospital serving the greater Roseville area. Our care focuses on companion animals, primarily dogs and cats. We offer preventative medicine, as well as diagnostics such as in-house laboratory and digital radiographs. We also work closely with several area specialists to allow for advanced imaging or surgery within our hospital. |
Our History |
West Roseville Veterinary Hospital was established in 1995 as a local family owned small animal practice. We moved from our original location on Baseline in Old Roseville to a larger facility on Galilee Road in 2007 in order to accommodate a growing clientele. West Roseville Pet Resort was also established in order to add grooming and boarding to the list of services offered. In 2014 the two businesses separated in anticipation of a change in ownership. In 2016 Dr Jennifer White officially took ownership of the practice. She hopes to maintain the family atmosphere while providing the best veterinary care possible.
