Your Stratford Veterinarians for Complete Pet Care

Coventry Animal Hospital has been dedicated to providing exceptional veterinary care in Stratford, Ontario since 1993. Originally established as a mixed animal practice in Mitchell, we expanded to Stratford to focus exclusively on companion animal care. Our team of experienced veterinarians and veterinary technicians is committed to delivering comprehensive wellness, preventive, and emergency services using state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment. We prioritize quality preventative healthcare and have implemented separate dog and cat rooms to reduce stress for our patients. Accredited by the College of Veterinarians of Ontario, our mobile veterinary service extends our reach to accommodate client needs.

Our facility offers surgical services, pain management, dentistry, and specialized care programs for puppies, kittens, adult pets, and seniors. We maintain rigorous continuing education standards to stay current with technological and medical advancements. Our mission focuses on strengthening the human-animal bond through compassionate care and client education. We provide after-hours emergency support through partnerships with Smart.Vet and regional veterinary emergency centers.
