Mobile Services for At-Home Veterinary Care

There are many occasions where traveling with your pet to the hospital is difficult or practically impossible. We have clients who have a large number of pets, very large pets, pets who strongly dislike traveling and pets that are quite feeble and old. For them and their owners, we created a housecall service.

We offer this service to established clients only. Not all medical concerns can be addressed appropriately at a housecall visit so doctor approval is required to schedule.

Mobile services include:

• Wellness Care including vaccinations with an emphasis on preventative medicine
• Complete diagnostic testing – blood work, urinalysis, cytology, cultures
• Heartworm testing and prevention
• Feline leukemia and FIV testing
• Microchip identification
• Dispensary for medicines and prescription diets
• Flea and tick preventatives
• Compassionate at home euthanasia

We charge a $150 travel fee for visits within a 5 mile radius. Areas that we generally serve include Solana Beach, Rancho Santa Fe, Del Mar, and Encinitas. Beyond these, there are time and resource issues that make traveling very cost prohibitive, however we sometimes make exceptions and travel outside this radius for an additional fee. Aside from the travel fee, all of our other fees are standard for housecall appointments.

For new clients or those who reside outside these areas, a good resource to consider when looking for a housecall veterinarian is the San Diego County Veterinary Medical Association. They have an excellent referral line.

If you would like to arrange for a housecall visit, please give us a call at (858) 759-8797.
