Preventative Pet Care in Calgary

We believe in keeping your pet healthy and happy. From routine exams to more comprehensive wellness services!

Regular Exams are crucial for keeping your pet’s health up to date. Though it is recommended that you visit more frequently, yearly Exams are minimal.

We offer Exotic Wellness Exams. Even with exotic pets, yearly exams are important to monitor their proper care and health status.

Routine Health Exams

Bringing your pet in for regular checkups goes a long way to maintaining their good health. That way, if there is something wrong, we know right away and can treat it appropriately.

Nutrition and Weight Management

A healthy pet is one who has good nutrition. We offer nutritional advice and weight management programs to help your pet maintain a good body weight.

Vaccination and Parasite Control

It is very important to keep your pet's vaccinations up to date. After their initial set of vaccinations as puppies or kittens, they should be brought back for yearly vaccinations. If you’re unsure what you need, don’t worry; our veterinarian can discuss vaccinations to give you a clearer idea of exactly what your pet needs.

If you’re planning on leaving Canada, talk to our vet as soon as possible. The pet health certification process is lengthy, often taking many months to complete. Don’t put your plans in jeopardy; give us a call and we can help you get the process started sooner, to keep your schedule on track.

Dental Health

Oral health is an important foundational piece of your pet’s health. We offer preventative approaches to dental health, keeping your pet healthy and happy.

Senior Health

Time comes for us all, including your pet. They will age and we want to help them age with dignity and grace. Our advice can help you and your pet navigate this life stage.

Top-Notch Service

We’ve been taking our senior cats here since we moved to Silverado five years ago and have received nothing but top notch service. Dr. KD and her staff are incredible. In my opinion, Dr. KD always puts your pet’s needs first and her profits second. She has never pushed for treatment that wasn’t absolutely necessary and has always worked to help find the right option for us. Almost a year ago we had to say goodbye to one of our cats and the Silverado Vet team gave her a compassionate and humane send off. I would absolutely recommend this clinic to anyone, before you know it you will feel like Dr. KD and her team are a part of your family and you a part of theirs. Thanks for everything that you do!

Warm and Friendly

We have been going to the Silverado Veterinary Hospital with our dogs since it opened, and they have always taken very, very good care of us. Dr. KD is knowledgeable and accessible, while her staff is warm and friendly. It is clear to us that our dogs are important to everyone at the clinic.

Great Experience

Great experience. Got our cat spayed here. No complications. Don’t know about that 1 star review that is a charity case. Go through the meow foundation.

Friendly and Welcoming

I brought my sweet little Yorkie, Phoebe, after being very worried after the heat waves a few days ago, and she was not eating or drinking much at all and was quite lethargic! The staff at the front desk was friendly and welcoming! The vet, Dr. K D Marahan was delightful to speak with and seeing her knowledge and expertise in caring for my dog, went a long way in my books. She informed me of all the possibilities and options of care, but she didn’t plan to do more than exactly what needed to be done. Her enthusiasm is refreshing! I moved to Calgary almost a year ago and have been hesitant to change vets from Okotoks, but I’m so glad I decided to come to Silverado Vet Hospital, for convenience, minutes down the road from me, and friendly and caring people who value the best care for your pet!

Helpful

I have been taking all of my dogs to K.D over the years and every time her staff and she are beyond helpful and attentive to me and my animals. I just neutered my oldest pup and when I went to pick him up from surgery, you'd never know he just went under the knife. He was energetic and happy to be there... I could go on. The Silverado Vet clinic is truly a family to me and my fur babies. Thanks ladies!

- Justine M.

Amazing Staff

Had our first visit. Dr. KD and the staff are amazing. I'm so glad my friend told me about them....well beyond the drive from the NE!

Genuine

Love KD and her team! They are genuinely interested in their customers’ personal lives just as much as they care for our fur babies!

Microchipping and ID

Each year, millions of pets go missing and many do not safely return home. Microchipping your pet is a safe and effective way to help your pet return home if he or she goes missing. A microchip is a very small capsule, about the size of a grain of rice that is inserted under the skin between the shoulder blades. It contains a computerized chip that stores an identification code that is unique to each animal.

Microchips are very reliable and non-alterable and will last the lifetime of your pet. Animal shelters and veterinary clinics are equipped with scanners that can read the microchip and identify the owner of the pet. The information can help quickly reunite you with your pet if he or she is lost!

Pet Insurance Advice

Emergency vet care can be expensive, but you don’t want to be forced to make a decision that you don’t want to make. Insurance can help ease unexpected financial burdens and provide the best care possible for your pet.
