There are many reasons why a house call may be the best option for your pet.  Some common reasons are:

  • a multi-pet household where taking individual pets to the hospital may be difficult
  • a pet that is nervous or does not travel well
  • an owner that is unable to or finds it difficult to transport their pet to the hospital
  • large families or families with infants
  • end of life services for pets that are more comfortable in their own environment
  • palliative/hospice care to ensure a pet is confortable at home for as long as possible

Advantages of house calls include:

  • the comfort and familiarity of a pet's own home with family members present
  • less stress to a pet that is anxious with car rides or in a waiting room
  • extended appointments to ensure questions or concerns are fully addressed
  • less risk of a hospital-acquired infection/illness (specifically for an animal with a compromised immune system)
