At Vets to Pets, we believe veterinary care should never come at the cost of your pet’s comfort or emotional well-being. That’s why we’ve built our mobile veterinary clinic around the Fear Free® philosophy—a revolutionary approach that helps reduce stress, anxiety, and fear during every step of your pet’s healthcare journey.
We’re proud to be the first practice to complete the soon to be released Fear Free Certified Veterinary Practice – House Call Standards program. This means we don’t just talk about stress-free care—we’re leading the charge in delivering it where your pet feels safest: right at home.
What Is Fear Free®?
Fear Free® is a science-backed approach to veterinary care designed to ease the stress pets often feel when going to the vet. Whether it’s the car ride, strange smells, or unfamiliar surroundings, traditional clinic visits can be overwhelming.
Fear Free® aims to change that through:
- Gentle handling techniques
- Use of calming pheromones
- Desensitization and counter-conditioning
- Environmental awareness and stress-reduction tools
- Positive reinforcement with treats and praise
What Makes Our Mobile Care Different?
Your pet doesn’t have to leave the comfort of their favorite sunspot or cozy corner. When we arrive at your home, we come prepared with:
- Feliway™ and Adaptil™ pheromone sprays to ease nervous tension
- High-value treats to create positive associations
- Calm & Cozy™ cat wraps for gentle, secure handling
- Pre-visit pharmaceuticals (when appropriate) to reduce anxiety even before we knock on the door
The Benefits Go Beyond the Visit
Reducing stress isn’t just about comfort. It directly affects your pet’s:
- Behavior (fewer fear responses and aggression)
- Physical health (less stress means better immune function)
- Willingness to receive care (no more hiding under the bed)
Let’s Redefine Vet Care Together
If you’ve ever dreaded bringing your pet to the vet—or if your pet hides at the sight of the carrier—we’re here to help.

Let us come to you, and show your pet that vet visits can be calm, kind, and even enjoyable.
