Bringing Compassionate Care

House Calls Veterinary Service is a full service veterinary practice that brings the quality, experienced, compassionate veterinary care medical team to your home. House Calls has been in business since June 1, 1995 to offer a low stress alternative to clinic visits for dogs, cats, and their people. In 2020, after 25 years with Dr. Riedl, the business transferred to Dr. Sanjay Jain. Dr. Jain, Dr. Gasper, Todd and Brenna (Vet Assistants) are continuing on for each visit.

Most procedures that are typically done as an out-patient office visit in a clinic can be done during a house call. House Calls also uses Apple Valley Veterinary Clinic for surgery and dentistry so we can offer the full spectrum of services that a traditional clinic offers. In 2020, Dr. Jain added mobile radiography to decrease the need to schedule this important diagnostic tool at a separate time and with our partnership with Apple Valley Veterinary Clinic’s facility, we can now perform most laboratory services with same day response time.

Slide Advantages House calls are less stressful for your pet. Your pet will be more relaxed at home in its familiar environment. A house call avoids the stress of a car ride; this is especially important for many cats. A house call also eliminates the stress associated with sitting in a clinic waiting room with other dogs and cats. Seeing your pet in his/her home environment can sometimes aid in making a diagnosis. This is especially true for behavior related problems. Dr. Jain will get to know your pets better seeing them at home.

House calls save time by eliminating the travel and waiting room time. We have found house calls to be especially convenient for multiple pet households and owners with small children may find it easier to schedule a veterinary visit at home. Situations may arise when it is difficult or impossible to get your pet to a veterinary clinic.

FAQs

It should be noted that the convenience of House Call visits will increase costs above a traditional clinic’s charges due to the limited number of appointments that can be seen during the day. Therefore, this type of service is not for everyone and since we are a full service clinic, we must give priority to non-euthanasia patients which we have seen before.
