and The Vets are now one. AÂ new era of pet care begins! 
In-Home Puppy & Kitten Wellness Exams
Welcome your new furry addition with an exam designed just for them. Kitten and puppy checkups help to ensure that your pet’s first year is off to a smooth and healthy start.
Reasons to Book an In-Home Puppy and Kitten Check-Up
Convenient Home Visits
Packing a new kitten or puppy into a car to get to the veterinarian can be a stressful experience for everyone. Keep your pet calm and comfortable by scheduling their initial pet health assessment at home.
Tailored Kitten & Puppy Care
Our Kitten and Puppy Wellness Exams are tailored to your growing pet, ensuring that their life with you begins with premium veterinary care. Our expert veterinarians take the time to get to know your pet and address their unique needs.
Safer Health Checks
Puppies and kittens are susceptible to serious illness, especially before they have had all of their recommended vaccines. In-home veterinary care keeps pets safe by reducing their exposure to other pets and communicable diseases.
Enhanced Health Monitoring
Observing how your kitten or puppy develops in their home environment is a key indicator of their overall health and wellness. Your veterinarian will monitor your young pet’s growth over time, and make recommendations for optimal health, nutrition, and behavior.Â
Puppy & Kitten Vet Visit Process
Assessing Your Puppy or Kitten’s Health
We recommend regular kitten and puppy physical exams to follow their growth and development during the first year and to administer essential vaccines and preventatives.Â
Customizing Vaccination Recommendations
During your Kitten and Puppy Wellness Visits, your veterinarian will administer any necessary vaccines by age. If you have any questions or concerns, you’ll be able to address them together and create a vaccine schedule that is best for your furry friend.
Post-Examination Support
BetterVet is here for you after your visit, too! If you have any concerns about caring for your pet, vaccinations or medications, we’re here to offer support whenever you need it. A virtual veterinary visit is another great option when you are looking for additional guidance.

Included in our Puppy & Kitten Annual Checkup
Our kitten and puppy wellness checks include a comprehensive examination tailored to your new family member, as well as a consultation about your pet’s individual needs. Here’s our other services that are included:
Visual Dental Assessment
As part of your pet’s wellness visit, your vet will perform a dental care checkup – a visual exam of your pet’s teeth and gums, and recommend professional cleanings when needed.
Pet Nutrition Counseling
During your home visit, your veterinarian will talk with you about your pet’s nutrition, diet, and weight, and address any individual concerns you may have.Â
Pet Behavior Counseling
Our veterinary doctors will provide behavioral guidance related to your pet’s age, breed, and health and make behavior recommendations and referrals.
Allergies & Dermatology
Our mobile vets will conduct a detailed allergy and dermatologic examination of your pet’s skin and coat for bumps or irritation. Medications may be prescribed depending on the cause.
Neurological Consultation
Our skilled veterinarians conduct neurological exams to assess your pet’s nervous system health that includes tests for reflexes, coordination, balance, and response to stimuli.
Orthopedic Assessment
We’ll examine your pet’s joints, bones, and muscles, identifying any signs of discomfort, injury, and degenerative issues, providing the foundation for effective treatment and care.
Veterinary Pain Management
If your puppy or kitten requires pain medication for any reason, most commonly post-spay or neuter surgery, your veterinarian will give you any prescriptions your pet will need.
Additional Puppy & Kitten Wellness Services
While not included in the cost of a Puppy & Kitten Wellness Exam, the following services are typically bundled with your pet’s in-home checkup.Â
Mobile Pet Vaccinations
This service brings core and lifestyle vaccinations directly to your doorstep to ensure your pet receives the necessary vaccines in the comfort and safety of your home.
Pet Blood Work
As part of your pet’s physical exam, your veterinarian may recommend lab work and may collect a small sample of your pet’s blood, urine or fecal sample for analysis.Â
Diagnostic Imaging and Radiology
Utilizing state-of-the-art equipment, our skilled veterinarians conduct in-depth imaging, such as X-rays, to accurately diagnose and monitor various conditions.
Mobile Pet Microchipping
A quick and secure way to ensure your pet’s safety, instantly giving your pet a permanent form of identification. Microchipping makes it easier to reunite with your pet if they ever get lost.
