Paws & Claws Frequently Asked Questions

At Paws & Claws Mobile Veterinary Services, we get a ton of interesting questions from pet parents. Below are some common FAQs that might help answer any questions or concerns.

What to expect at Paws & Claws Mobile Veterinary Services?

Dr. Carithers brings the pet hospital to you!! Paws&Claws is a full-service veterinary clinic on wheels. We can perform most services done at a traditional clinic from puppy/kitten vaccines, spays and neuters, dental cleaning, preventative care, sick and wellness visits, end of life care providing compassionate in-home euthanasia. We are however not set up to see emergencies and do not have X-rays on our mobile unit. If your pet is in need of X-rays or ultrasound or will need hospitalization we will recommend a nearby traditional clinic for your pet.

Whether you have a concern about your 8-week old puppy or your aging senior cat give us a call to make an appointment for us to visit.  Appointments are available Monday- Friday from 10 am until about 4:30 depending on your location. We will give you a call with an exact time of arrival when are on our way to your home.
