Your pet's long-term health depends on consistent, proactive preventive care.

Vaccinations are one of the most important steps you can take to protect your pet. At Apollo Animal Hospital, we follow vaccination protocols recommended for dogs and cats based on age, lifestyle, and health history. Core vaccines for dogs include rabies, distemper, parvovirus, and adenovirus. Core vaccines for cats include rabies, feline herpesvirus, calicivirus, and panleukopenia. We review your pet's vaccination history at each visit and build a schedule that keeps their immunity current. Keeping vaccinations up to date is one of the most effective preventive measures available. Call us at (604) 372-4411 to book your pet's vaccination appointment in Cloverdale.
A lost pet has a far greater chance of coming home when they carry a permanent form of identification. Apollo Animal Hospital provides ISO-certified microchip implantation for dogs and cats of all ages. The chip, approximately the size of a grain of rice, is implanted under the skin between the shoulder blades with a single needle. The procedure is quick and well-tolerated in most cases. Once implanted, the chip is registered to your contact information in a national database, giving shelters and clinics the ability to identify your pet immediately. We recommend microchipping for all pets regardless of whether they go outdoors.
Fleas multiply rapidly and a single infestation can affect both your pet and your home environment. At Apollo Animal Hospital, we help you select the right veterinary-grade prevention product for your dog or cat based on their age, weight, and lifestyle. Our team can also assess pets showing signs of an active flea issue, including excessive scratching, hair loss, skin irritation, or visible flea debris in the coat. Early intervention and consistent prevention are the most effective ways to keep your pet flea-free year-round. We serve pets in Cloverdale, Surrey, and the Langley area.
Heartworm is a serious parasitic condition that can affect both dogs and cats. Dogs are the primary host, but cats can be impacted as well. Prevention is far more straightforward than managing an active heartworm infection. At Apollo Animal Hospital, we recommend annual heartworm screening for dogs as part of routine wellness care and carry effective preventive products suitable for the local parasite risk in the Surrey and Langley area. Our team will help you choose the right prevention plan for your pet's age, size, and health status.
Ticks are active for much of the year in British Columbia, particularly in wooded and grassy areas around Surrey and Langley. They can carry Lyme disease, anaplasmosis, and other conditions. At Apollo Animal Hospital, we carry veterinary-grade tick prevention products for dogs and cats and can advise on safe tick removal if you find one attached to your pet. Combining a consistent prevention product with regular checks after outdoor activity gives your pet the best protection in this region.
Intestinal parasites including roundworms, tapeworms, hookworms, and whipworms are common in dogs and cats of all ages. Many pets carry parasites without obvious signs, making routine deworming an important part of preventive care. Puppies and kittens need more frequent deworming in their early months, while adult pets benefit from regular fecal screening and a deworming schedule based on their lifestyle and exposure risk. Our team will recommend the appropriate deworming protocol for your pet at each wellness visit.
Overgrown nails can cause discomfort, affect your pet's gait, and increase the risk of injury. Regular nail trimming is a simple but meaningful part of routine care. Our team provides gentle nail trims for dogs and cats of all sizes during wellness visits or as a standalone appointment. For pets who are anxious about nail trims, we offer sedated options to make the experience calm and safe. Keeping nails at a healthy length helps your pet move comfortably and avoid painful splits or ingrown nails.
Healthy ears are clean, dry, and odor-free. Routine ear cleaning helps prevent the buildup of wax and debris that can contribute to infections, particularly in dogs with floppy ears or pets that spend time in water. Our team performs ear cleaning as part of wellness visits and can show you how to safely maintain your pet's ears at home. If we observe signs of infection, inflammation, or ear mites during a cleaning, we will discuss the appropriate next steps with you.
Anal glands are small sacs on either side of your pet's rectum that can become impacted if they do not empty naturally during bowel movements. Signs that your pet may need anal gland expression include scooting on the floor, excessive licking near the tail, or a strong, unpleasant odor. Our team performs anal gland expression as a routine procedure during wellness visits or as needed. Pets with recurring anal gland issues may benefit from a longer-term management plan, which our team can discuss with you.
Nutrition directly affects your pet's energy, coat condition, weight, and long-term health. Apollo Animal Hospital carries a selection of veterinary-grade therapeutic foods, supplements, and treats formulated to support specific health needs, including joint support, digestive health, weight management, and skin and coat condition. Our team can help you select the right products for your pet's life stage and individual health profile. We also carry products suitable for pets with specific dietary requirements related to chronic health conditions.
Giant breeds such as Great Danes, Saint Bernards, and Mastiffs have health considerations that differ significantly from smaller dogs. Their bones, joints, and digestive systems require careful management from puppyhood through adulthood. Apollo Animal Hospital provides tailored wellness plans for giant breeds that account for their growth rates, elevated risk of orthopedic conditions, and specific nutritional needs. If you have a giant breed dog in the Surrey or Langley area, our team has the experience to support their long-term health.
The first year of life sets the foundation for your pet's long-term health. Puppies and kittens need a series of vaccinations starting as early as 6 to 8 weeks of age, along with deworming, parasite prevention, and nutritional guidance suited to their developmental stage. At Apollo Animal Hospital, we schedule puppy and kitten visits to track growth, administer vaccines on schedule, and provide practical guidance on feeding, socialization, and home care. We are happy to answer questions from first-time pet owners and ensure every young patient gets the strong start they deserve.
Keep your pet healthy and protected year-round at Apollo Animal Hospital in Cloverdale, Surrey. We are open Monday through Sunday, 8 AM to 10 PM. Book a wellness visit online or call (604) 372-4411 today.
