What Arizona pet parents say
Real reviews from Google
"I have a 16 year old shih-tzu and i have always been super nervous of leaving him. I came across VetterCare cause i was looking for a highly trained individual that would know how to care for a senior dog with some health issues. We did our research and i found Diana. Let me tell you she was "THE BEST". I have never in 16 years with my shih tzu been more comfortable with someone like i was with Diana. Now my dog misses her lol . She did an excellent job. She gave me constant updates, she sent us the cutest pics of Mr. Bossy, he was so happy and absolutely just loved her. If you are looking for the Best person to watch your fur pets i "HIGHLY" recommend Diana. Thank you Diana and VetterCare . Five stars all the way"
"Great experience using Alexus to take care of my dog. She was very good at communicating, extremely professional and reliable. She clearly has a love for animals and I would definitely recommend anyone to use her and these services when in need."
"Hi. I'm writing to let you know how pleased I was with your employee Sarah. She was very kind to both me and my dog. She took time to show me the correct way to use the medication.y dog and I had a very pleasant experience."
"Sarah was a lifesaver when we rescued a dog that was diagnosed with Megaesophagus (ME.)She helped keep us calm while we learned everything. Truly a Godsend."
"My experience with Martha on 2 separate occasions were nothing short of phenomenal! Martha went above and beyond to care for my kitty kat Sammie when he was at his sickest and I could not be there. She initiated his medication, helped him through the first few days in becoming accustomed to even being on medication. She sat with him while he begrudgingly ate his ‘special’ food. Martha played with him and comforted him when he needed it. Martha kept me fully informed and updated. I could not have imagined the level of care she provided was even possible. I will never forget the kindness Martha gave so freely to Sammie and to me…Martha is priceless!"
"Sarah Draper helped me with my shepherd after her surgery helped with cleaning her wound and changing her bandages she was a great help to me I appreciate her very much I couldn’t do it myself"
Frequently asked questions
Is in-home medical support in Gilbert the same as seeing a vet?
No. Your veterinary professional carries out the plan your veterinarian has already prescribed — medications, monitoring, wound care, recovery support — in the comfort of your pet's home. They don't diagnose conditions, prescribe medication, or replace regular vet visits.
Do I need to already have a diagnosis or prescription from my vet before booking?
It depends. We prefer clients to have one, and we request medical records for all medical bookings, since it helps your veterinary professional provide care that's consistent with what your veterinarian has already recommended. If you're not sure whether your situation qualifies, reach out and we can talk it through.
What kind of medical support can a veterinary professional provide at home?
Medication administration (pills, injections, and more), post-op monitoring and recovery care, wound care and bandage changes, and general condition monitoring — all following your veterinarian's written instructions.
What if my pet needs emergency care?
In-home medical visits are for ongoing, non-emergency care your vet has already outlined. If your pet is experiencing an emergency, please contact your veterinarian or the nearest emergency animal hospital right away.
Do you support pets with chronic conditions, like diabetes?
Yes. We offer specialized in-home support for pets managing diabetes and other chronic conditions, including insulin administration and routine monitoring.
