Skip the drive to the clinic, long wait times, and working around a clinic schedule with in-home vaccinations. We bring convenient, hassle-free veterinary care straight to your door.

Reduced Stress

Reduce your pet’s anxiety by keeping them calm and comfortable at home. Our Fear Free® certified veterinarians make vaccinations a breeze for both you and your pets.

Safety & Hygiene

Exposure to other animals can present health risks to your pet, especially before they have received all of their vaccinations.

Personalized Care

Our veterinarians provide the best personalized care, so each individual pet receives specialized attention that they deserve.

Our Mobile Pet Vaccination Process

The Vets’ stress-free mobile vaccines for dogs and cats help to ensure your pet’s health and safety.

Scheduling a Wellness Exam

Regular veterinary care is key to your pet’s long-term health. This includes routine Wellness Exams and vaccinations. During your pet’s head-to-tail examination, your veterinarian will recommend vaccines that your pet needs, based on age, lifestyle, and geographical location.

Discussing Vaccines

During a Wellness Exam, your veterinarian will recommend specific vaccines based on your pet’s age, health, and lifestyle. If you have any questions or concerns about the process, you’ll be able to address them directly with your veterinary team. They’re here to help!

Administering Vaccines

Our Fear Free® certified veterinarians administer your pet’s vaccines with your pet’s comfort level in mind throughout the entire process. Our gentle, in-home process ensures that your pet’s vaccinations will be over before they know it.

Post-Vaccination Care

Your veterinary team will provide guidance on post-vaccination care, including any potential side effects or adverse reactions your pet may experience, and how to best care for them following their shots. They’ll also be available for support if you have any questions or concerns following your appointment.

When to Schedule Your Pet’s Vaccine Shots

Our veterinary team will work with you to come up with a vaccine schedule for your pet, which is customized based on their age, lifestyle, and geographical location. Typically, vaccines and boosters are bundled with our Wellness Exams.

Puppies & Kittens

New puppies and kittens are more susceptible to diseases, so we recommend they receive their initial vaccines before socializing with other pets. During a Puppy and Kitten Wellness Exam, our veterinarians will make sure your pet is developing properly and is on track with all necessary vaccines.

Annual Boosters

Annual boosters are an essential component of your pet’s wellness, maintaining their immunity against diseases. Our mobile pet vaccinations will keep your pets up-to-date without the hassle and anxiety associated with traveling to a clinic.

Before Boarding or Travel

If you’re planning a trip with your pet, either domestic or international, specific vaccines may be required. Check travel guidelines beforehand and schedule any necessary vaccinations with us to ensure a smooth and safe travel experience.

After Pet Adoption

New pet parents should ensure that their furry friends are up-to-date with core and non-core vaccines. In-home veterinary care is a wonderful option for new and adopted pets, as it minimizes both stress and disruption for you and them.

Included in Our Mobile Pet Vaccines Service

BetterVet offers mobile vaccinations for pets, including core and non-core vaccines. Together, you’ll make a vaccination schedule that works for you and keeps your pet healthy, up-to-date, and protected from transmissible disease.

Core Vaccines

Your BetterVet veterinarian will recommend when and what core vaccines are necessary for your pet. Core vaccines for dogs include rabies and DHPP (distemper, adenovirus, parainfluenza, parvovirus). Core vaccines for cats are typically rabies and FVRCP (rhinotracheitis, calicivirus, panleukopenia).

Non-Core and Lifestyle Vaccines

Depending on your pet’s lifestyle and where you live, your veterinarian may also recommend non-core vaccines tailored to your pet’s specific needs. Our veterinarians will advise you on the best options for your pet, but non-core vaccines can often include: feline leukemia for cats, canine leptospirosis, bordetella (kennel cough), Lyme, and influenza vaccines, or even vaccines for specific toxins like Western diamondback rattlesnake.

Ongoing Support

Our veterinarians remain a resource for you even after your appointment. Whether you have concerns about post-vaccine care or general questions about your pet’s vaccination needs, we’re here to provide guidance and support. A virtual vet visit is a great option when you have pet health questions but aren’t sure if they need to be seen for an in-home visit.

Compassionate care, at your doorstep

Our skilled veterinarians deliver expert care with a personal touch, making it easy for you to take the best care of your whole household of pets.

What Our Clients Say

Frequently asked questions

How long does a mobile pet vaccination visit last?

We typically bundle your pet’s vaccines with a Pet Wellness Visit, which usually lasts between 30-45 minutes.

Are your vaccines as high-quality as clinic ones?

Yes, we source all of our vaccines from highly reputable sources only, the same as if we were a brick and mortar veterinary clinic.

How do I know which vaccines my pet needs?

Your veterinarian will work with you to determine what core and non-core vaccines are necessary for your pet, and when they should be administered.

What if my pet reacts badly to a vaccine?

If you are concerned about your pet’s reaction to a vaccine, or they have had a bad reaction in the past, make sure to let your veterinarian know before your appointment. If your pet is showing side effects after receiving a vaccine, it’s always a good idea to check in with us.

What's your rescheduling policy?

We understand that scheduling conflicts arise, and if you are able to let us know more than 48 hours before a scheduled appointment, we can help you cancel or reschedule at no charge. If you need to reschedule or cancel your visit less than 48 before an appointment time, there will be a $75 fee added to your account.

Are vaccines given right after the wellness exam?

We typically administer any vaccinations that your pet needs during their annual or biannual Wellness Exam.

Is the pet vaccination an additional cost to the wellness exam?

Yes, the cost of your pet’s vaccinations is not included in your Wellness Exam fee. We typically bundle your pet’s vaccinations with their scheduled checkup, so that you only need to pay one travel fee.

Does pet insurance cover vaccination for pets?

While pet insurance does not generally cover preventative care like Wellness Exams and vaccinations, many Pet Wellness Plans do.

How often should my pet be revaccinated?

A typical vaccination schedule for puppies and kittens starts between 6 to 8 weeks of age and continues until they are approximately 16 weeks old. After reaching maturity, vaccines are boosted after 1 year, then booster vaccines can range from every 1-3 years depending on lifestyle.
