From routine health checks and vaccinations to diagnostic testing and treatment, Animal's Journey brings personalised veterinary care to your doorstep.
We visit pets across the Kāpiti Coast, Hutt Valley and Greater Wellington region, taking the time to understand their individual needs and make each visit as comfortable as possible.
Veterinary care feels different when your pet can stay where they feel safest.
Home visits remove many of the stresses associated with travelling to a veterinary clinic and allow us to work with your pet at their own pace.
With a Fear Free Certified veterinarian, consultations are calm and unhurried, giving us time to examine your pet, discuss their health concerns, perform appropriate tests and develop a treatment plan tailored to their individual needs.
Protection tailored to your pet — based on what they actually need.
Vaccination recommendations are tailored to your pet’s age, lifestyle and individual risk factors.
We also offer titre testing to measure existing antibody protection, which can help determine whether a booster vaccination is necessary.
Our aim is appropriate, effective disease protection without unnecessary treatment.
Good treatment starts with understanding what’s really going on.
We can perform and arrange a range of diagnostic tests including blood, urine and faecal testing and fine needle aspirates.
Samples can be sent to IDEXX Laboratory for further analysis, and when imaging or more advanced diagnostics such as X-rays, ultrasound or biopsies are required, we work with local clinics to coordinate your pet’s care.
Treatment should fit the animal — not just the diagnosis.
Treatment is tailored to your pet and may include medication, nutritional support, behavioural advice, physiotherapy, acupuncture or a combination of approaches.
We can supply medication directly or provide prescriptions where appropriate, and if your pet needs more involved treatment, we can arrange referral and work alongside local veterinary clinics.
Whether it's time for a routine check-up or you're unsure what your pet needs, we're here to help. Get in touch and we'll talk through the options together.
