What Arizona pet parents say
Real reviews from Google
"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!!"
"Alee Ronquillo is amazing! She helped my sweet girl Eevee have a speedy and peaceful recovery after her emergency pyrometra surgery. She administered medication she needed at the right times daily and she tended to her incision to prevent infection and she even helped me stay calm and give me a feeling of peace while I was busy working! I knew from the moment I spoke with Alee that my girl was getting the absolute best care! I also have cats and she even went above and beyond with them, feeding, playing and even trimmed their claws for me!! I was just blown away!"
"An amazing service for pet owners who want an experienced, trained professional to care for their fur babies! We booked Stefanie to check-in on our Frenchie Emma, a day after having minor surgery, to do a wellness check and make sure her stitches were doing ok. The convenience of having a credentialed vet tech do a house call is a game changer for us! Especially since last minute vet appointments are virtually impossible unless it's an emergency. Will definitely utilize these services in the future!"
"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."
Frequently asked questions
Is in-home medical support in Phoenix 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 Phoenix?
