Trusted, independent care for the pets you love
Friendly, independent veterinary care in Bishopstoke—focused on your pet’s wellbeing at every stage of life.
24/7 Emergency Care – Here When You Need Us Most
Welcome to Riverside
Riverside Vets is an independent small animal practice in Bishopstoke, caring for pets across Eastleigh and the surrounding area. We take time to really get to know your pet – their personality, routines, and what matters most to you.
Independence means we make decisions based on what’s right for your pet, not a set rulebook. You’ll see familiar faces, with an experienced team who stay, listen, and build genuine relationships.
From puppies and kittens to older pets needing extra support, we focus on calm, thoughtful care. We offer 20-minute consultations, are proudly feline-friendly, provide space for nervous dogs, run dog confidence clinics, and offer a preventative healthcare plan with all-inclusive consultations. We also provide a full range of clinical services, including dentistry, to keep your pets healthy and happy.

🐢 Little Lolly’s Pamper Session! ✂️💚![]()
![]()
Little Lolly the Horsfield Tortoise popped in to see our nursing team for a nail trim, and she was an absolute superstar! ⭐![]()

Just like dogs and cats, tortoises sometimes need their nails trimmed if they become too long, especially if they’re not wearing them down naturally. Keeping nails at a healthy length helps them walk comfortably and prevents them from catching or growing awkwardly.![]()

Our nurses made sure Lolly was held safely and comfortably while giving her a little tortoise manicure. We think she handled it brilliantly! 🥹![]()

Isn’t she adorable? 🐢💚
