Services
Wellness Exams
Comprehensive health assessments conducted in the pet's home environment. These 30-minute visits include physical examinations, weight monitoring, and preventative care recommendations. Ideal for early detection of potential health issues while minimizing pet anxiety associated with clinic visits. Clients receive personalized health plans tailored to their pet's specific needs.
Vaccinations
Core and non-core vaccine administration following AAHA guidelines. Includes rabies, distemper, and feline leukemia vaccines. Each visit includes a brief health assessment to ensure vaccination safety. Bookings can be combined with other services to minimize multiple visits, particularly beneficial for multi-pet households.
Hospice Care
Compassionate in-home care for aging or terminally ill pets. Services include pain management, mobility assistance, and quality-of-life assessments. Veterinarians work closely with families to create comfort-focused treatment plans. Includes support for making difficult care decisions in the pet's most familiar environment.
Diagnostic Testing
In-home collection of samples for bloodwork, urinalysis, and fecal exams. Provides early detection of conditions like diabetes, kidney disease, and parasitic infections. Veterinarians explain results in context of the pet's home environment, enabling more accurate health assessments than clinic-based testing alone.
Euthanasia Services
Gentle in-home euthanasia performed with utmost compassion. Includes pre-appointment consultation to discuss options and post-procedure arrangements. Allows pets to pass in familiar surroundings surrounded by loved ones. Veterinarians provide emotional support to families during this difficult time.
