Services
In-Home Pet Euthanasia
Our compassionate euthanasia service provides a peaceful passing experience for pets in their familiar home environment. The process includes sedation followed by intravenous injection, allowing pets to remain surrounded by loved ones. We serve Portland and Vancouver, WA, providing aftercare options including cremation. This service requires prior consultation to ensure appropriate timing and preparation.
Wellness Exams
Comprehensive physical examinations assess your pet's overall health during one-hour home visits. We evaluate vital signs, coat condition, dental health, and mobility while monitoring for early disease indicators. These preventative visits help maintain wellness through early intervention strategies tailored to each pet's specific needs and living environment.
Vaccinations
We administer core vaccinations according to veterinary guidelines during house calls for disease prevention. Our protocol includes rabies, distemper, and other recommended immunizations with documentation for medical records. Vaccine scheduling follows individual risk assessments based on age, lifestyle, and local regulatory requirements for pet health maintenance.
Senior Pet Care
Specialized evaluations address age-related changes in pets over seven years old. We monitor kidney function, joint health, and cognitive changes through blood testing and physical assessments. Management plans incorporate dietary recommendations, pain control strategies, and quality-of-life monitoring during regular home visits for aging animals.
Parasite Control
We provide year-round protection against fleas, ticks, and intestinal parasites through customized prevention protocols. Our approach includes risk assessment based on lifestyle and environment, plus education about parasite-borne disease risks. Preventative medications are dispensed during wellness visits with follow-up monitoring for treatment effectiveness.
