Doorstep Veterinary Care

When you find a great vet, you follow them anywhere! That's how I feel about Dr. Nickens. She is kind, patient, friendly, thorough and amazing with my dogs. Over the years Dr Nickens has helped my make decisions and thoroughly educated me on what I needed to do to keep my fur kids safe and happy. She's not an "in-and-out, on to the next patient" kind of vet. She built trust with me and my little ones. I am so grateful for her!

I have 2 pups that Dr. Nickens comes to see. She is great, she really exams and explains things about my pups and what they need. I love to see her down on the floor with them, she is so cool. She answers all my questions and even let's me know if there is some place I need to take them. Dr. Nickens is also fun to talk to. On a fluke I put into google mobile vet and up pops Doorstep Veterinary Care. I'm so glad about that fluke. I recommend Doorstep Veterinary Care to all.

Dr. Nickens is wonderful! She is very personable, knowledgeable, processing great patience treating my aggressive chihuahua. Dr. Nickens is such an asset to our community. Her services are home-based which is very convenient when it is hard to get around. Her prices are fair. No price-gouging!! I highly recommend Dr. Nickens as your Veterinary. Her compassion and obvious love for animals and great-skill-sets, make her and excellent choice to be my Veterinary as long as I have pets! Thank you Dr. Nickes for a wonderful experience caring for my dog Oprah!!

When it became clear that it was time for our pup to be put to rest, we knew we wanted to be with him at home to reduce his stress and have a more memorable last few moments together as a family. He was declining rapidly. Unfortunately, being in Lake Ridge, Va, we were outside the service area for many vets that offered at home care. We found Dr. Nicken, she was prompt and professional and walked us through a very challenging time. I would highly recommend her. For us, she was the perfect combination of being grounded and matter-of-fact while giving us space and time to go at the pace we needed, and was very kind and consoling. We were in good hands with her on one of the hardest days of our lives.

We had our first appointment with our 13 year old pup this week and couldn’t have had a better experience. Dr. Nickens was great with him and great with us and answered all of our too many questions. Truly cannot believe that we waited this long to try a mobile vet.
