What Arizona pet parents say
Real reviews from Google
"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!"
"Martha is so thorough and communicative!!! I super appreciated her thoughtfulness in making sure my pups were taken care of and kept me in the know while I was away and I felt so confident to leave them with her!"
"Heather Schroeder takes care of giving sub Q fluids to my kitties. She’s exceptional at making it a comfortable experience for them. She’s extremely gentle with them.. so much so that they occasionally jump up on her lap for their turn!! She’s definitely a true “cat whisperer!”❤️"
"Sarah Draper was wonderful to work with! She walked us through the bandage changes while Presley was healing. She made sure to explain to us what she was doing, and why. And also informed us of things to look for so we would know if something was wrong. We would recommend her to everyone. So good with our Presley!! Thanks Sarah!"
"I worked with tech Heather daily over a period of months as she assisted with getting medication into my uncooperative cat who was fighting lymphoma. I found her to be capable and knowledgeable as well as caring/compassionate and reliable. Highly recommend."
"So thankful for Sarah Draper ! My mind was at ease knowing my fur baby was in good hands & being well taken care of during his recovery from surgery. Thank you!! I highly recommend Sarah!!"
Frequently asked questions
Is in-home medical support in Mesa 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.
How do I get started in Mesa?
