Don’t see your city on this list? Please still reach out! We will assess needs in other areas on a case-by-case basis.

We expect to be in your home for about 30-45 minutes per pet. However, this time can vary depending on what exactly needs to be done at the time of the appointment.

• All appointments require a $95 deposit.

• This will become a credit on your account and covers the entire house call fee. This charge is separate from a physical exam. It accounts for fuel costs, extra time spent driving between appointments, and the convenience and increased level of care that a home visit provides. Only one house call fee is charged per visit, even if multiple pets are examined.

• If you cancel with more than 48 hours notice, your deposit will be refunded to you in full.

• If an appointment is canceled with less than 48 hours notice, or if the animal cannot be found or handled, the deposit will be forfeited.

• We accept cash, check, debit, and credit card payments.

• Credit card payments have a 3% surcharge.

Please let us know via phone or email as soon as you are able.

Any cancellations with greater than 48 hours notice will have their deposit fully refunded. Any short-notice cancellations will forfeit the deposit.

We will recommend following up with a local brick-and-mortar facility to help make sure your pet gets the care they need. In the meantime, we will make sure your pet is as comfortable as possible until that time.
