We're taking a number of precautionary measures to continue providing quality care to our patients while ensuring everyone's safety in the midst of the COVID-19 outbreak.
For the time being, only employees will be allowed inside the hospital. We will meet clients in the parking lot to pick up pets and/or deliver food and medications right to your car.
During this time, services may be limited and we may need to make changes to existing appointments. If your appointment is going to be affected, we'll contact you regarding the changes.
Our new, curbside program goes like this:
➡️ Call us when you get here and a team member will come out to assist you.
Make sure cats are transported in sturdy carriers and dogs are properly restrained via leash and ready to be greeted by our staff.
➡️ Participate in your pet’s appointment.
We’ll be in contact with you after your pet’s appointment. Just as you would during a traditional visit, you can speak with a doctor or technician to ask questions and voice your concerns. We'll perform any necessary treatments and prepare your invoice and all take home medications for your pet.
➡️ We’ll return your pet and complete the payment process.
After your pet’s appointment is finished, we’ll bring them back to your car and complete the payment process. At the moment, we’re accepting cash, debit, and credit.
😷 If you’re feeling under the weather, please reschedule your appointment. Keeping everyone safe is our top priority. You won’t be penalized for rescheduling, and we will do our best to work you back in as quickly as time allows.
Keep up with our latest COVID-19 updates here and if you have any questions at all, don't hesitate to call us.
Thank you,
The Animal House Veterinary Hospital Team
