Dogs, Cats, Poultry, Pigs, and Goats.
Horses, cattle and exotics may be seen on a case by case basis - please call/text/email.
Allow yourself enough time for your appointment. Be sure to have your pets in a place where they will be ready to be seen when we arrive at your home (make sure your pet is at home and cannot hide under a bed or porch. Place cats in a secure carrier or in the bathroom).
Most routine appointments take between 30 minutes to 1 hour. Seeing multiple pets during the same visit may, of course, take longer, as will visits for sick pets, behavioral consults, etc. You will have my undivided attention, and we will have time to address any questions or concerns.
All our services will be performed at your home. When more complex treatments requiring hospitalization are indicated, there are full-service stationary hospitals we regularly refer our patients to.
We are an outpatient house call service and are NOT staffed or equipped to hospitalize patients or accommodate after-hours emergencies.
Please let us know as soon as possible if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment. You will be responsible for the house call fee if you cancel your scheduled appointment after we have already arrived at your home, or if you are not at home for your scheduled appointment.
Please call/text or email for an appointment.
