Originally opened in 1963, Roseville Veterinary Clinic transitioned from a farm animal hospital into a small animal hospital in 2000 to provide veterinary services to pet owners in Clarke County and the surrounding area of northern Virginia. In 1993, Plaza Pet Clinic opened as an extension of Roseville Veterinary Clinic to provide quality veterinary care to an under-served and developing section of Frederick County, Virginia.
With a Spanish-speaking veterinarian on staff, Plaza Pet Clinic is able to service Hispanic pet owners in the area.

Dr. Thomas Leahy says “I am excited to join the Southern Veterinary Partners’ family of high-quality veterinary hospitals and proud to be the first hospitals in Virginia to meet their standards for excellence. Their philosophy of staff as family, clients as friends and patients as loved ones coincides with my beliefs for how veterinary medicine should be approached. This association with Southern Veterinary Partners allows me to spend less time on management and administration and more time practicing the veterinary medicine which is so meaningful to me. Southern Veterinary Partners’ dedication to the highest standards of care and the commitment to cutting-edge technology ensures pets in northern Virginia will continue to receive the highest level of care at Roseville Veterinary Clinic and Plaza Pet Clinic. I look forward to continuing to serve pet owners and my community for years to come.“
