We are so thankful for this service. We love Dr Courtney. I have such a peace now that I didn't have before. I feel like my fur baby, Nita, is going to finally start getting better. Thank you 🙏🏼

This was the most informative vet visit I've had for my fur baby! The process was seamless and the outcome was beyond my expectations!! Highly recommended!!

Dr.Cole was great. My dog has an ear infection and Dr.Cole really took his time explaining everything to me and answering my questions. Best Veterinarian I've ever seen!!!

They were prompt with appointment time and the Dr was very nice and easy to talk to... He also explained what was going on with my Little girl so that I was able to understand what is going on! Also very easy to get prescriptions to the pharmacy! Definitely would use them again and recommend them!

Frequently asked questions

Yes — for many mild to moderate coughing cases, a licensed veterinarian can evaluate symptoms, rule out emergencies, and prescribe treatment when appropriate. Our vets can assess dry honking coughs, gagging, nasal discharge, and other respiratory signs through a virtual visit and create a personalized treatment plan.

Just $65 flat — no hidden fees or memberships.

Many prescriptions are sent the same day for local pharmacy pickup, or you can choose next-day delivery directly to your door.

If your vet determines your dog needs chest X-rays, blood work, or other diagnostics, they will clearly guide you on next steps and help coordinate with local veterinary services. Seek emergency care immediately for labored breathing, blue gums, collapse, or a productive cough with fever and lethargy.

Our vets commonly help with kennel cough, mild upper respiratory infections, allergy-related coughing, and early bronchitis. If your dog's condition requires in-person care or advanced diagnostics, your vet will let you know.
