  They were very thorough and listened to what I had to say and provided many useful suggestions for managing my cats health including supplements and diet. Ordering the prescriptions provided from their website was simple and easy.

  This service is wonderful. My cat Ana is very sweet, but can be extremely nervous and fearful. I attribute this to her being a stray previously. I had been putting off bringing her to a vet because I knew it would be traumatizing for all parties involved. I finally decided to try a mobile vet, figuring being in a familiar setting might alleviate some of her anxiety. The BetterVet Boston website is very user-friendly. It allows you to book an appointment within a 4 hour window. The day before they narrowed it to a two hour window, and then the day of I got a text with an ETA. For me this was when they were 34 minutes out. Dr. Gollub and Karli arrived and they were outstanding. They went over Ana's history with me and my concerns about her anxiety and getting her microchipped. I confined my cat to the bathroom so she wouldn't have anywhere to hide. Even then, she managed to wedge herself behind the toilet and made the exam very difficult. She was completely petrified but Dr. Gollub and Karli were able to restrain her and were quick and efficient with what they needed to do, while still being kind and gentle with her. They did the physical exam, vaccinated her, microchipped her, and clipped her nails. He provided me with some advice on how to more effectively approach her when she's feeling anxious. He also provided a prescription I can use for her anxiety on an as-needed basis, i.e. when I need to trim her nails or transport her. This was such a weight lifted off my shoulders. I wish I hadn't put this off for so long. She wasn't the most willing patient (lol) but they were such professionals and made it seem incredibly easy. I also appreciated that he didn't try and up-sell me on services - he was very honest when I asked about things he didn't think were necessary given her lack of symptoms. Came across as very trustworthy. I highly recommend!

  We have worked the Better Vet For the last 2 or 3 years with our two senior dogs. Our dog, Sam , was a nervous boy, who hated the vet. Seeing the vet in our living room made a world of difference for him. Our girl, Sierra, had multiple chronic medical issues that only a14 yr old can have. Dr Ann Sidley and her Tech were caring, compassionate and respectful of our wishes. Their service included vaccines, blood draws, and medications, as well as a wealth of knowledge. When the time came to euthanize our Sam, Dr Sidley and tech made a very sad occasion as smooth as it could go and our Sam showed no signs of distress. We highly recommend their service. Thank you, Better Vet for allowing us to care for Sam and Sierra at home.

  I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Cimino last week for a quality of life visit for our sweet golden. Coming into this appointment I was extremely concerned and convinced I was going to have to start the discussion of putting my dog down based on her marked deterioration and lethargy over the last few months. Dr. Cimino was so kind and reassuring and patient with me while I discussed my concerns. Well, long story short the dog is absolutely fine and has Lyme disease (lol, phew) The tech was also amazing and drew blood for Sue effortlessly. She grabbed her some doggy Advil from the van and answered all my questions and made sure I was on board and okay with the plan and work up. Less then 24 hours later Dr. Cimino reached out to let me know my dog has Lyme and sent in a script that was delivered to my door the next day. It’s been one week of medication and my dog happily climbs up the stairs for the first time in 6 months, is back to taking walking without stopping after 20 yards and is pretty much back to her “normal” 9 year old self. I am so grateful for the ease, kindness and efficiency of Dr. Cimino and her team and all they have done for my Susie girl.
