Veterinarian Serving Fountaingrove, Santa Rosa
10 to 15 minutes from the Fountaingrove hills, with care for wildlife, smoke and trail risks in the hills.
For Fountaingrove families, Lakeside Pet Hospital is about 10 to 15 minutes away on Santa Rosa’s east side. We’re a family-owned animal hospital on Montgomery Drive and have cared for local dogs and cats since 1961, through good years and hard ones. We cared for many Fountaingrove pets after the 2017 fire, and we’re glad to see so many families back home. You’ll see the same faces at every visit.
Getting here from Fountaingrove
Come down Fountaingrove Parkway or Brush Creek Road, cross Highway 12 and continue to Montgomery Drive. We’re in the Lakeside Shopping Center with parking right outside. Book online or give us a call.
What we see in Fountaingrove pets
- Wildlife encounters. The hills around Fountaingrove are home to coyotes, raccoons, skunks and rattlesnakes. Bite wounds, scratches and sudden swelling need prompt care, so call us the same day.
- Smoke and fire readiness. Hillside neighborhoods often get smoke first on bad fire days. Our wildfire smoke guide covers signs of breathing trouble and an evacuation checklist for pets.
- Foxtails and ticks. Dry grass on the open hillsides and trails means foxtails in ears and paws, and ticks on dogs who explore the brush. See our dog safety myths vs. facts.
- Indoor cat health. Many hillside cats live indoors because of coyotes. Indoor cats are safer, but they can gain weight and develop urinary or litter box problems. Our litter box guide explains what to watch for.
Care Fountaingrove families use most
Fountaingrove families often see us for wellness and vaccines, dentistry, surgery, and same-day visits for wounds and injuries. Our digital X-ray and in-house lab mean faster answers.
