HistoryDr. Debbie Elliott started VETdispatch, Mobile Veterinarians in 2009 determined to offer house calls to patients that do not travel well or simply cannot travel to the hospital. Some of the people that have benefited from this service include disabled people, seniors, those who do not drive, and mothers with children. Surprisingly, Dr. Elliott found that the real benefit was to the pets. Cats simply do not travel well. Many will vocalize, become ill and hide for days after the trip. Senior dogs struggle to get into the vehicle for transport. People faced with these and similar situations feel guilty and stress about not being able to offer their pets' health care. Now, there is a solution. You can call The Less-Stress VETS to come to your home and provide veterinary health care. VETdispatch has expanded to CT, NY, PA, MD and DC.SpecialtiesWe come to your home to provide pet health care in Bergen, Passaic, Hudson, and Essex Counties. Our team of veterinarians and technicians provide personalized health care for your four-legged companions. This care may include vaccinations, blood work, diagnostics, and laboratory tests. Our house calls last an average of 45 minutes so that you and your pet receive the attention and care you deserve. The majority of our patients include cats and dogs that do not like to travel or do not enjoy the vet's visit. Patients that are relaxed in their own home environment allow for a more complete examination. The team can also provide care for non-emergency illnesses. We are truly The Less-Stress VETS! We also offer ultrasound and radiographs (X-rays) in your comfortable home. These services assist with diagnosing cancer, systemic disease, heart disease, lameness, and other illnesses. By performing these procedures in the home, you and your pet do not have to travel or wait in a veterinary hospital. When it is time to say good-bye to your beloved pet we are available to answer questions and walk you through the euthanasia process. We believe that every pet deserves to spend their final moments in their own environment, surrounded by their family. We work hand-in-hand with a pet memorial service.
