Mobile Vet Servicing Launceston to East Coast Tasmania

A vet comes to your home to examine and treat your pet. This avoids a clinic trip and lets the vet assess your pet in a familiar setting.

Greater Launceston through the East Coast to Freycinet. Regular weekly routes cover East Tamar, West Tamar, and an East Coast circuit including Fingal Valley, Swansea, Bicheno, Coles Bay, Douglas River, Lake Leake, and Campbell Town.

Travel fees may apply.

Less travel and less stress for pets, better assessment in their usual environment, easier for homes with multiple pets, and more flexible scheduling.

Home consults, extended consults for complex or behaviour cases, vaccinations for dogs, cats and rabbits, microchipping, general health care with diet and behaviour advice, chronic disease management, sedation for grooming or minor wound care, and in-home euthanasia.

Selected large-animal work is available.

Travel fees apply.

Some treatments need hospital equipment and a team. Examples include major surgery, complex imaging, and overnight care. When something is best done in a clinic, we will organise a referral, share your pet’s history, and help you plan the visit.

We then continue care at home with follow ups, medication reviews, and comfort care where needed.
