House Calls
There are many reasons to choose in-home veterinary care.
- Veterinary house calls work well for pets who don’t travel well due to anxiety or a medical condition.
- They’re convenient for busy clients with small children or who prefer not to drive.
- They’re private and peaceful for those last quiet moments when saying good-bye to a beloved pet.
Let us come to you.

Well Pet House Calls
A veterinary house call blends our commitment to exceptional veterinary care and old-fashioned service, brought to your door. Check out our blog post for 6 benefits of veterinary house calls.
House calls allow us to observe pets in their natural environment, which can prompt wonderful discussions about their care.
House calls can be added to your pet’s Wellness Plan, a budget-friendly way to provide all the recommended preventive care for your pet.
Dr. Laura Monahan is available for house calls within our service area (ZIP codes: 98144, 98108, 98118, 98122, 98134, and 98040).
During a house call, we can discuss a variety of topics and conduct any of the following types of examinations:
- well pet exams
- behavior consultations
- diagnostics
- vaccinations
- preventive parasite medications
Each appointment typically lasts about 45 minutes, allowing the doctor and veterinary nurse to spend quality one-on-one time with you and offer comprehensive health, nutritional and behavioral guidance.
The doctor will review the exam findings with you and recommend a treatment plan for your approval. Most lab tests performed during the house call will typically have results back to you the next day. Following the visit, you can access your pet’s medical records and lab results through our complimentary online pet portal.
Services outside the scope of what we are capable of accomplishing within a house call visit will be referred back to our hospital, where we’ll provide continuity of care and communication through our doctors and staff – folks you know and trust. These cases include those needing hospitalization and intensive care, surgery, and other diagnostic procedures like x-rays or ultrasound.
