Protecting Your Pet From Pests Year-Round

Parasites aren’t just a nuisance — they can pose serious health risks to your pet and even your family. Fleas, ticks, heartworms, and intestinal parasites can cause discomfort, spread disease, and lead to more significant medical problems if left untreated.

At Riverdale Park Animal Hospital, we focus on prevention first. With the right protection plan in place, most parasite-related issues can be avoided altogether, helping your pet stay comfortable, healthy, and active all year long.

Personalized Protection Plans

Every pet’s lifestyle is different, which is why we create individualized parasite prevention programs tailored to your pet and home environment. Whether your pet spends time outdoors, visits parks or boarding facilities, or primarily stays indoors, we’ll recommend the safest and most effective options for their specific needs.

Our team will also guide you on how to reduce exposure at home and in your yard for complete, well-rounded protection.

Parasite Prevention Services Include:

• Flea prevention and customized flea control programs
• Tick prevention and screening
• Heartworm testing and monthly prevention
• Intestinal parasite screening and fecal testing
• Deworming treatments as needed
