Dr Galligher Does a great job

Dr. Galligher and Devon were incredibly patient with my dog Gus. He is very nervous around Vet's but she really took her time and let Gus warm up to her before trying to do anything with him. I highly recommend her service!

Caring vet with convenient in home care

The vet and assistant were so caring to my animals. They were very flexible, knowledgeable and understanding. They showed kindness to my pets and knew how to best help them feel comfortable. They explained everything to me and answered any questions I had. My pets were so much more comfortable in our house than going to a vet!

Amazing care and consideration from our vet and vet tech

Both Dr. White and her assistant Brooke could not be more skilled at taking care of our Sparky as well as helping me to feel at ease. Better vet is a reliable service and they keep in touch with texts making it easier to know when they will arrive. Dr. White was a great help after Sparky had an operation encouraging me to contact her with any questions or concerns.

This is our first hand experience with in-home veterinary care. In the past, our cats always get so stressed from the car ride alone, so choosing to have the vet come to us was a great option. Dr. Kimberly Galligher and her assistant, Devon Williams were professional, caring, and informative. The whole experience for us humans and especially our fur babies was amazing.

A super experience!

This was my first time using BetterVet. I needed to get my cat up to date on vaccines. He also desperately needed his nails trimmed. Peyton is normally not welcoming to new people but the moment Dr. Kimberley opened the bathroom door he sat on her lap the whole exam. Her helper Devon was also so kind and caring. If you are unsure about using an at home vet consider trying it. There is so much less stress in having them come into your own home. Dr Kimberley thoroughly checked Peyton and explained changes to his diet that were needed. Thank you BetterVet for taking such good care of my family.
