Perth, skip the troubles with Adventure Vet
Getting a pet to a clinic in Launceston means loading up the car, sitting in traffic on the Midland Highway, and managing an animal that’s already worked out something is wrong. For Perth households (many with dogs used to running paddocks, cats who have never left the property, or older animals who find travel hard), there’s a better option. Adventure Vets comes to you, consultation happens in the space your pet already knows.
Dr Kristina Fisher visits Perth every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday on the Midland Highway circuit.
The travel fee to Perth starts from $22 as part of the Midland Highway circuit. A standard consult is $125.
Perth pet owners, these are our commitments
Your property is part of the consult
A dog who is stiff getting up in the morning is easier to assess at home than in a clinic. Dr Kristina can watch how your dog moves across your actual yard, on the surfaces they live on, in the temperatures they work in. That context changes what she sees. Perth and the surrounding Northern Midlands have a high proportion of properties with paddocks, dogs that work or roam, and animals who spend most of their time outdoors. A home visit captures that picture in a way a clinic exam cannot.
Less stress means a more accurate picture
Cats in particular often mask symptoms the moment they’re in an unfamiliar space. A cat who seems ‘fine’ at the clinic and comes home limping again hasn’t been assessed at their baseline. Dr Kristina sees your cat where they actually live: on their usual perch, in their usual light, without the adrenaline of a car trip and a waiting room full of strangers. For Perth households where cats are outdoor or semi-outdoor, that difference can be significant.
One trip covers multiple animals
Perth properties often have more than one pet. Loading a dog, two cats and a rabbit into separate carriers and making separate clinic trips is a half-day exercise. Adventure Vets charges A$100 per additional animal seen in the same visit. Dr Kristina and Andrew work through each animal at home, with no separate trips and no separate waiting.
Four days a week, no special trip to Launceston
Perth sits on the Midland Highway route, 20km south of Launceston. Adventure Vets travels this corridor every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday as part of the regular circuit. The travel fee to Perth is $22.

Reviews
Kristina and her partner from Adventure vets were amazing with my precious kitty Freja. I was concerned with a move and her recent behaviour that there was a problem but after a home visit vis-a-vis their prompt response check-up and some kitty meds those concerns are relieved. They were caring personable and patient. I also think they are priced within reason all things considered. I will be using Adventure vets for my future vet needs and highly recommend them. Thank you for caring Adventure Vets!
Great service and care provided for our animals
The kindness of Kristina and Andrew is such a credit to their business. They treated our precious cat like he was part of their family and made a very difficult time a little easier. I couldn’t recommend them more highly. Thank you so much for your warmth and professionalism. Libby and family
Kristina and Andrew are always a pleasure to have care for our pups never go anywhere else
These guys were so amazing! Helped me out in a pickle and were efficient courteous and looked after our little cat so well. Thank you so much! Definitely recommend!
Excellent bedside manner towards my two nervous cats. Would highly recommend this service. Reasonably priced as well.
Kristina has been coming to our home to see my 2 dogs and cat for around 5 years. The care and compassion she showed toward my elderly dog on her monthly visits here for him was phenomenal.
It was also an honour to have Kristina be the one to help my Boston cross over, as I said, he loved her presence and I know he would have wanted her to be one to help him across too. I am also very very grateful to have had the option to set Boston free in our own space, at home.
Thank you both Kristina & Andrew, from all of us! 🐶🐶😺
So good to have a mobile vet available. Came same day and gave great care and advice. Put us at ease. Excellent.
Adventure Vet brings the clinic to Perth
The most common booking types from rural and peri-urban towns on this circuit are mobility checks for older dogs, vaccination catch-ups for animals that haven’t made it to a clinic in a while, and multi-pet visits where the household has dogs, cats and sometimes rabbits or chooks to see in one go. Sedation for grooming is also common for dogs who have never settled on a grooming table. Adventure Vets can assess and manage this at home, then issue a letter for the groomer if sedation protocols are agreed.
Frequently asked questions
How many days a week does Adventure Vets visit Perth?
Four regular days: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, on the Midland Highway circuit.
What does a home visit cost from Perth?
The standard consult is A$125. The travel fee to Perth is A$22. If you have more than one animal to see in the same visit, each additional animal is A$100. An extended consult surcharge of A$25 applies for more complex or longer appointments.
Do you see animals other than cats and dogs?
Yes. Adventure Vets routinely sees dogs, cats, rabbits and chooks. Contact the team to discuss your specific situation before booking.
Can you manage an older dog who has trouble walking?
Yes. Mobility checks are one of the most commonly booked services on the rural circuit. Dr Kristina can assess how your animal moves in your own yard, on the ground they actually live on, and develop a management plan from there.
What happens if my pet needs something Adventure Vets can’t do at home?
Some treatments require clinic equipment: major surgery, complex imaging, overnight care and emergency procedures cannot be done on a home visit. If your pet needs this level of care, Dr Kristina will organise a referral, share your pet’s history with the receiving clinic, and help you plan the visit. She can then continue home-based follow-up, medication reviews and comfort care once your pet is back.
What if my pet needs emergency care overnight?
Adventure Vets operates by appointment during business hours and does not provide after-hours emergency services. If your pet needs urgent overnight care, contact Animal Emergency Hospital Launceston on (03) 6310 8499 or Animal Emergency Service Hobart on 1300 302 912. Save both numbers before you need them.
