01Why here

Why book the home visit from a full clinic

A vet at home in Dubai is only as useful as the building behind the visit. Ours has the lab, the x-ray room and the surgery theatre that a car boot does not.

A vet and a nurse, every visit

One person holds and one examines. A nervous cat is examined in 1 attempt instead of 3, and blood is drawn without a second needle. The nurse records the weight and the vaccine batch.

Samples run in our own lab

Blood and urine taken in your living room go straight back to the in-house lab. For most panels the vet phones you with the result the same day.

The clinic is the next step, not a referral

If the vet finds a problem that needs x-ray, ultrasound or surgery, it is booked at our own clinic, open 8 AM to 12 AM every day. You get the written estimate at your door.

The fee for your area, in writing first

Send your location pin and the desk replies with the visit fee and the price of each item. Nothing is added at the door that you did not agree to on WhatsApp.

02Overview

What a home visit covers, and where it stops

A home visit suits a cat that panics in the carrier and a large old dog that cannot climb into the car. It suits a household with 3 or 4 animals due on the same day. It also suits owners without a car. Tell us on WhatsApp what the visit is for, because the vet packs for that job.

At home the vet can do a full examination, cat vaccinations and dog vaccinations. Nail trims, ear cleaning, wound checks and repeat injections are also done at home. Blood and urine samples are taken in your living room and run in our laboratory afterwards.

Some things cannot leave the building. X-ray, ultrasound, anaesthetics, surgery, dental scaling and drips all need the clinic. If the vet finds a problem that needs one of them, you are told at the visit and given a written estimate. A home visit is also the wrong choice for an emergency, because your car reaches us faster than we reach you. For that, read the urgent care page and call.

03What it covers

What the home vet services cover

A mobile vet visit in Dubai covers the items below. Say which one you need when you message.

  • Pet vaccination home serviceAnnual boosters and first courses for kittens and puppies, given after a health check and entered in the vaccination book. See cat vaccination and dog vaccination for what each course contains.
  • Health check at homeEyes, ears, teeth, heart, lungs, belly, skin and joints, with the weight recorded. Suits the cat that has not left the flat in 3 years and the owner without a car.
  • Home vet visits for dogs that cannot travelLarge or old dogs with sore hips, and dogs recovering from surgery. The vet assesses pain and mobility on your floor and adjusts the medication plan.
  • Blood and urine samplesDrawn at home, labelled in front of you and run in our laboratory. Ask when you book whether your animal should fast.
  • Wound checks and stitch removalAfter surgery at the clinic, the recheck and the removal of stitches can happen at home if the wound is clean. The vet decides at the visit.
  • Repeat injections and long-term medication reviewsInjections due every few weeks, and the weight and check that come before a repeat prescription from the pharmacy.
  • Nail clipping and ear cleaningDone by the nurse while the vet examines. Tell us if your cat has bitten during nail trims before.
  • Multi-pet householdsA vet home service in Dubai makes sense when 3 or 4 animals are due the same week. One visit fee, each animal examined and recorded separately.

04On the day

How a visit runs

The order is the same for a flat or a villa.

  1. 1

    Message us

    A day ahead

    Send your location pin, the species and age, the reason for the visit and a photo of the vaccination book. We reply with the fee for your area and the times available.

  2. 2

    Before we arrive

    1 hour before

    Shut your cat in one small room, such as a bathroom, with the carrier open. A cat under a bed is the main reason a visit runs over. Put your dog on a lead. Tell building security that a visitor is coming.

  3. 3

    The examination

    The vet works on a table or on the floor with a towel, whichever your animal prefers. The nurse holds. The vet checks eyes, ears, teeth, heart, lungs, belly, skin and joints, and records the weight.

  4. 4

    Vaccines and samples

    Each vaccine is entered in the vaccination book and signed. Samples are labelled in front of you and go back to the lab. Results reach you by phone or WhatsApp.

  5. 5

    Plan and payment

    You get the findings and the next date in writing. If anything needs the clinic, the estimate lists each item before you decide.

Home visits in Dubai, in practice

Towers and gated communities

Most towers register visitors and many limit visitor parking to 1 or 2 hours. Send the tower name and flat number with the pin, and tell the concierge our arrival time.

Summer car parks

From June to September a basement car park can sit above 40°C. Flat-faced breeds such as Persians, pugs and bulldogs overheat fastest. A home visit removes that trip for routine care.

Vaccines travel cold

Vaccines have to stay between 2 and 8°C. They travel in a cool box and come out only when the vet is ready to inject.

Rabies and the municipality tag

A rabies vaccine given at home is entered in the same vaccination book as one given in the clinic. Ask on WhatsApp about Dubai Municipality registration when you book, and have the microchip number ready.

Ramadan evenings

During Ramadan the slots after iftar go first. Book 2 or 3 days ahead in that month if you want an evening time.

Where we start from

The team leaves from Ras Al Khor Industrial 3. International City, Nad Al Sheba, Meydan, Al Warqa, Mirdif and Silicon Oasis are the closest areas. Send your pin and we tell you whether we can come and what it costs.

07Do not wait

Do not book a home visit for these. Call and come in

These need x-ray, a drip or constant monitoring, and none of those travel.

  • Breathing with effort, or a cat breathing through an open mouth
  • A male cat straining to pass urine
  • Repeated vomiting with a swollen, tight belly
  • A seizure, a collapse, or sudden weakness in the back legs
  • A fall from a height or a road accident, even if your animal is walking
  • Anything swallowed that may be poisonous

08Afterwards

After the visit

A vaccinated cat or dog is often quiet for 24 hours and may eat less that evening. A small firm lump at the injection site can last 1 to 2 weeks and then fades.

Lab results from samples taken at home are explained by phone. If a result changes the plan, the vet tells you whether the next step can be done at home or needs the clinic.

  • Call us the same day if the face swells, hives appear or your animal vomits more than twice after a vaccine
  • Skip baths and hard exercise for 2 days after a vaccination
  • Keep the vaccination book where you will find it, because travel and registration both need it
  • Note the next due date in your phone before the team leaves

I've had both my cats spayed and neutered here and have also used their grooming services. The prices are reasonable, and the team is incredibly friendly, professional, and caring.

Dr. Abdallah took very good care of my cat Bella and explained everything clearly, which made me feel comfortable and reassured.
Rana Abdelmoti8 months ago
Dr. Abdalla carefully reviewed my cat's full medical history and provided valuable insights and clear explanations about her condition. Despite how aggressive my cat can be, he avoided sedation, handled her with great care, gave her treats, and managed her in a calm and professional manner.
Nadiia Shamrai4 months ago
I rescued two cats from the street, and it turned into a disaster when they suddenly got terribly sick. While looking for urgent help, I visited Petflix since they were luckily open from 8 a.m. I visited twice daily for two weeks. Thankfully, my cats are now back to normal and are waiting for their first vaccination at the same place.
Aswathi c11 months ago
I took my cat Sky here for her spaying surgery. She felt so comfortable and safe throughout the process. The doctor is very experienced and took the time to explain everything we asked about.
Ireta Murati10 months ago
My cat was in such a critical condition, and thanks to Dr. Sara's quick response and expertise, she's now healthy and back to her playful self.

11Questions

Questions about home vet visits

How much does a vet home visit cost?

The fee depends on your area and on what is done, and we quote it in writing on WhatsApp before you confirm. Send your location pin, the species and the reason for the visit. The quote lists the visit fee and each item, such as a vaccine or a lab test. You agree to the total before the team sets out.

Can you vaccinate my cat at home?

Yes, routine vaccinations for cats and dogs are given at home after a health check. The vaccine travels in a cool box and is recorded in the vaccination book the same way as in the clinic. Kittens and puppies on their first course can also be done at home. Keep your cat in one closed room before we arrive.

Can the vet come to my house tonight?

Same-day visits happen when the team has a free slot near your area, but they cannot be promised. Message us with your location and the reason and we reply with the earliest time. If your animal is unwell tonight, do not wait for a visit. The clinic is open until 12 AM and takes walk-ins.

My dog is too big to lift into the car. Can you treat him at home?

Yes for an examination, a pain assessment, blood samples and injections, and no for x-ray or anything under anaesthetic. If he needs the clinic, two people can move him on a blanket held at the four corners. Tell us his weight when you book so the vet brings the right supplies.

Do you do blood tests at home?

Yes, the sample is taken at your home and run in the clinic laboratory afterwards. Ask when you book whether to fast your animal, because an 8 to 12 hour fast gives cleaner results for some panels. Water always stays down. The vet phones you with the results and explains what each abnormal value means.
