Meet our Silver Sponsor: Veterinary Home Visits
Veterinary Home Visits is a house call practice out of Middleton MA serving the North Shore of Boston. This means we come to your home to examine your dog(and cat). We offer exams, vaccines, heart worm tests, routine laboratory testing and treat minor or chronic illnesses. The cost is comparable to your local veterinary clinic with the addition of a travel fee.
Home visits are great for a multitude of reasons. One of the most common reasons pet owners seek home visits is to reduce the stress of a car ride and veterinary office visit on their dog. Many dogs become fearful at the clinic, they can become aggressive through fear, they can become physically ill from the stress or they simply do not play well with other dogs/people. Most dogs are very different in their own home. Another common reason for home visits is for the pet owner that finds it difficult to leave the home, whether they are ill/disabled, have multiple pets or young children or they simply have limited time. Whatever the reasons, we find most animals are much more relaxed in the home environment which leads to a much better exam and therefore better care of our patients.
To learn more about Veterinary Home Visits go to our website at vethomevisits.com or give us a call at 978-406-9632
