Costs & Benefits

The "house call service fee" depends on your location, beginning at $65 in Ladner and increases in $10 increments to compensate for additional distance, or appointments outside of regular hours. The fee allows for the professional time, travel, and equipment required for a veterinarian to come to your home and work within your pet's environment. It provides you and your pet with the benefits and convenience of having such professional services in your own home.

The fees for the other veterinary services (i.e. the exam, plus any vaccines, tests, acupuncture, or home euthanasias, etc) are in addition to the house call service fee. We follow the fee guidelines set by the B.C. Veterinary Medical Association (BCVMA), and are comparable to most other clinics. More in-depth care, treatments, and tests can be coordinated with local veterinary clinics or with specialists.

Note About Emergency Services: Should your pet have an urgent concern or possible emergency, consult these service providers.
