Veterinary Access From Home

Who loves going to the vet office?!
If you didn’t raise your hand (or paw), you’re not alone.

But the good news is the world of veterinary medicine is changing….for the better.

One such change is easy access veterinary professionals wherever you and your pet happen to be. Telemedicine appointments are a great way to get convenient, professional advice and often save both precious time and money. In the state of Washington, veterinarians can diagnose & prescribe medication for many conditions through a telemedicine appointment. Telemedicine appointments are the perfect solution for the time-constrained pet parent…and who isn’t time constrained these days! It’s also a terrific option for those pets who are difficult to take to the vet office due to anxiety, fear, car sickness, etc.

The saying “an apple a day keeps the doctor away” applies to pets, too.

Ok, while we don’t recommend feeding your beautiful fur baby an apple everyday, we do advocate good wellness care as the key to keeping your pet healthier, happier and living longer. Many pet parents put off taking their loved one to the vet clinic mainly because there isn’t enough time. That can lead to a small problem and one that’s easy to fix becoming a big problem and one that is harder and more expensive to fix. That’s why veterinary telemedicine appointments are so valuable. By talking to a veterinarian via Zoom, you get instant feedback about your concerns and often begin a simple treatment without needing to go to the clinic. Tackling an issue while it’s still small is much better for your pet than letting it become more severe.

At BoosterPet, you can easily schedule a telemedicine consult with one of our awesome veterinarians.

Many times, your pet care questions can be answered and treated right there, in the comfort of your home (or backyard or on the trail). Other times, the veterinarian may recommend that you go to one of our in-clinic locations for further evaluation. If the condition is more serious, we will help you navigate the Seattle pet care options that exist and get you in the hands of trusted partners who provide advanced veterinary care (emergency veterinarians and/or veterinary specialty veterinarians).
