    What Texas pet parents say

    Real reviews from Google

    "Becca Pena cared for our elder pug over a three-day period. Becca did an excellent job. She was kind, caring, and attentive to our dog's needs. Becca went above and beyond to make sure our dog was comfortable, particularly displaying excellent trouble solving skills when our dog was being uncooperative. She also was kind and attentive to our other dog who was not part of the service. We highly recommend Becca, particularly if you have an older pet, or one that has special daily needs."

    "Highly recommend Anna Kehoe, she has pet sat for me several times and provides the best care I expect for my fur babies. If you need medication like I do for one of my babies she can also accommodate that. Sending love to my favorite pet care giver ever <3"

    "Cassie has taken care of our show Weimaraners from the time rhey were puppies until they were gone since she was in high school. She even took care of our parrot! I trust her implicitly with our pets. Right now we have dogs that are 13 and 11 who need medicine twice daily as well as a 6 year old and a puppy and she takes care of them all with skill and love. She’s a credit to VetterCare!"

    Frequently asked questions

    Is in-home medical support in Arlington 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 Arlington?

    Share your pet's condition, medications, and vet's instructions (along with medical records), and we'll match you with an experienced, background-checked veterinary professional near you.

    Which parts of Arlington do you serve?

    Our veterinary professionals live in Southwest Arlington and next door in Pantego, with more nearby in Mansfield, Burleson, and Cedar Hill. Not sure we cover your street? Call (214) 509-6200 or start a booking and we'll let you know.

    Can an Arlington veterinary professional help after my pet's surgery?

    Yes. Your veterinary professional follows your veterinarian's discharge instructions: medications, incision checks, and monitoring during recovery. VetterCare veterinary professionals follow your veterinarian's instructions and do not replace veterinary care.
