What To Expect

Your At-Home Vet Experience

Mobile Expert Side Image

One of the biggest benefits of mobile veterinary care is creating a relaxed, stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. If this is our first visit to your home, a little preparation can help things go smoothly. Please have a well-lit area ready for the exam—most pets feel most comfortable when we come down to their level, so we’ll typically sit on the floor with them (no need to provide seating). We also bring everything we need, including water and supplies, so you don’t have to worry about a thing.
When your appointment is scheduled, you’ll receive an estimated arrival window, and if that changes, we’ll give you a call to keep you updated. It’s completely normal for dogs to bark or get excited when we first arrive—no need to stress, we’re used to it! We just ask that you have a leash nearby in case we need it during the visit.

We are so grateful for the compassionate care we received from Desert Paws. Dr.Hartle came on short notice and had such a kind, peaceful presence. Our dog's passing was gentle and beautiful, we couldn’t have asked for a more loving goodbye.

Thank you, Dr. Hartle, for the peace and kindness you granted us. Thank you for allowing me to lay flowers over her, for helping me carry her, and giving me the time to say goodbye. Thank you for helping me with paw and nose prints. The work you do is incredibly hard, but how thankful I am that you made this the process I needed, and the peaceful transition my sweet girl needed
