Harborside Animal Hospital

Harborside Animal Hospital Full service medical, dental, & surgical facility
Habla Espanol We are so excited to meet you and your pets and welcome you to our practice!

We are a 2-doctor, full service, private practice animal hospital that sees patients on appointment, drop-off, and walk-in basis as time permits. We treat emergencies as well as non-emergent, surgical, dental, and preventative wellness cases, and are able to provide digital dental/general radiology, ultrasonography, echocardiography, a variety of in-house labs. Thanks to partnerships with several

mobile veterinarians, we can also offer a number of complicated and/or orthopedic surgical services, CT scan, and endoscopy as availability permits. Beyond first rate pet care, we strive to promote stress-free medicine and work to create a comfortable clinic environment for clients and patients to enjoy. Here at Harborside Animal Hospital, we practice conventional, evidence-based Western medicine and pride ourselves on working together with our clients to provide the highest quality gold-standard medical care for their pets. This includes making diagnostic, treatment, and preventative care recommendations utilizing flea/heartworm preventatives, vaccinations, and many other pharmaceuticals at appropriate label doses as outlined by the FDA. We practice medicine based on the latest scientific advancements within our field as well as FDA guidelines and regulations. We do not practice or promote holistic/alternative medicine solely on its own but may utilize very few nutraceutical products as supportive therapy to our highly Western-based treatment plans. While we are more than happy to see pets and clients who follow all philosophies, we believe this transparency is important in creating and fostering a healthy relationship with a medical team you can trust. If you do not believe conventional/Western medicine is the right approach for your pets or, for example, believe that FDA approved flea/heartworm medications would harm your pets even when given at label doses, then we would recommend seeking care elsewhere with a veterinary team who aligns more with your ideals. Thank you for your understanding.

POST HURRICANE MILTON UPDATE: We will resume full operation for our regular business hours tomorrow, Saturday October 12th, from 9a-1p. Please reach out via phone, text, or email if you need to have your pet seen. We all appreciate your patience as we worked to get operational again.

POST HURRICANE MILTON UPDATE: Hello Harborside family! We hope you all made it safely through the storm and with minimal damages.

Our team is working diligently to get the hospital back up and running. Unfortunately, power and internet are still out at this time, so we are unable to open for patient care. We are taking it day by day at this point, but hope to have power restored in order to get back to caring for our patients by tomorrow, Saturday Oct 12.

We appreciate your patience and understanding during this period, and hope you all stay safe as our community works together to clean up and recover from the storm.

UPDATE ON HURRICANE MILTON CLOSURE: We will be closing at 12:00 noon today, Tuesday, Oct 8, in preparation of Hurricane Milton's arrival, and will remain closed Wednesday and Thursday with plans to reopen for normal business hours Friday, pending conditions following the storm. We will keep you updated. NOW is the time to finish up any last minute prep.

As we posted earlier, please do not forget your furry family members as you complete your last minute hurricane prep. If you need anything, you can contact our hospital via phone, text, or email. All can be found on our website at: harborsideanimalhospital.com

Here's a helpful list to consider for your pets:
1.) Make sure you have refills of any medications they will need.
2.) Ensure you have their up to date vaccinations list in the event of emergency evacuation and sheltering. Rabies is especially important, but other core vaccines to cover for highly communicable diseases should also be considered, such as bordetella and influenza.
We can email a digital record of your pet's medical records at your request.
3.) Ensure you have enough food and water to last them at least 2 weeks.
4.) Wash any pet bedding and toys that you can to help minimize odor in the event of a long-term power outage.
5.) Bathe your pets as well! (as best you can. Cats will have something to say about this one.)
6.) Ensure litterboxes are emptied and cleaned with fresh litter before the storm. (Any odors will be magnified after you lose power) Similarly, make sure you have someplace set up for our dog friends to eliminate safely.
7.) Microchip your pet if they are not already, and ensure that chip is registered to your current contact information. Remember, microchips can only provide a benefit if you have completed the registration. If you need assistance with microchipping your pet or checking/updating your pet's microchip, please let us know!
A microchip will be vital in helping to reunite you if your pet gets separated from you and picked up by a shelter during the storm.
8.) Ensure you have secure carriers and/or leash and harness that are properly fitted so that your pet cannot escape them as you work to evacuate.
9.) Consider anti-anxiety medications for any pets who typically become nervous or anxious during a thunderstorm or to help facilitate less stressful capture for evacuation. If your pet's exam is not current within the past year, we may need to update an exam to prescribe any medication. Please give us a call so that we can get your pet on the schedule.

We appreciate your understanding and hope everyone stays safe during this storm!

Bring in your pet to Harborside Animal Hospital for the best experience possible. Our staff loves talking to new patients and providing top-notch medical services.

Hey Harborside Fam…here’s something amazing.

Our incredible Practice Manager & CVT Heather, has hit 10 YEARS WORKING WITH OUR HOSPITAL! 🎉🐾 Heather has worked with countless babies who have came through the doors since we’ve opened and has been a phenomenal animal advocate. She is a teacher and mentor to all and without a doubt in mind is our biggest cheerleader here at the hospital. We know many of our clients have shared special bonds with Heather in the way she has educated & treated along side our Doctors. She’s incredible in all that she does from managing our hospital operations and being available to all of us!

We couldn’t do what we do without you, Heather. Our chaos coordinator 🧡.

Hey Harborside Fam! Long time no see! 👋🏼

Hope everyone is doing well after the holidays. Last week, we sent our Certified Veterinary Technicians, Bethany and Chrissy, and few other technicians to Veterinary Meeting & Expo in Orlando! 🐾🩺 We pride ourselves in staying up to date with the best ways to treat your fur babies and our technicians are hungry to learn! They went to countless lectures and stopped by many booths to learn more on how to give your pets the best veterinary care.

We are ready for you at the hospital! Call us at 727-726-1616 to make an appointment or for other pet related needs. 🧡
