Pamela RobertsI’ve had Chichi for a while now and as much as I love the furbaby, I admit that she gets rowdy now and then. It gets difficult to bring her with me sometimes, so I’ve been looking for an all-around mobile pet clinic for my pooch.
I’ve made a list of my non-negotiables: vets should be understanding and compassionate about making sure that I get the best quality out there. I’m pretty sure that’s what you’re looking for too.
I know it’s tricky to find a mobile vet in Jacksonville that you can fully trust, so here’s a list that could help you find the true match for you and your furry friend.
How much does a mobile vet cost in Jacksonville?
Mobile vet clinics in Jacksonville cost between $55 and $375 depending on the service you need. Fees for basic pet care services like a general check-up will vary greatly from prices for specialized offerings like microchipping.
1. HelloVet – Pet Care at Home
Address: 25 N Market St
Phone: +19047123554
Business hours:
- Mon–Fri: 8:30am – 6:00pm
- Sat: 8:30am – 1:00pm
- Sun: closed
Pet owners usually book mobile services because of convenience, and HelloVet addresses that need through their multi-pet appointment option. You can book one session for all your pets at home.
Apart from convenience, you’ll feel at ease due to the highly positive feedback they get from their previous clients — mostly due to the team’s patience and care for pets.
While they have minor setbacks like only accepting bookings by appointment and adding mileage fees, their professionalism and transparency still stand strong.
Their FAQ section is quite clear in explaining their offerings and policies, and the bottom line is that we want a team who can clearly deliver.
Convenient, and reduces pet anxiety
“Dr. Pitkat and her team are the best thing to happen to my gang of pups! They fit you in quickly and are patient and kind with every different pup personality. It’s so convenient being able to have the vet at your front door. The mobile vet reduces the anxiety out of taking the dogs to the vet and my two pitties and French bulldog are enthused about their visit (which doesn’t normally happen at the vet). If you were unsure about a mobile vet, here’s your sign.”

Affordable, convenient, and knowledgeable
“Not only is Dr P and her team affordable and convenient, their patience and love for your furry friends and your own family is unmatched. I wish I had found them sooner! I especially recommend this Vet Team if you have an elderly dog. The convenience of everything being in your own home is not just for you, but for your animal as well. I swear we got extra years with our dog because of Dr P, her knowledge, and her love for animals!”

2. Jacksonville Community Pet Clinic Mobile
Phone: +19046940541
Business hours:
- Mon–Fri: 9:00am – 5:00pm
- Sat–Sun: closed
Jacksonville Community Pet Clinic Mobile engages in community partnerships with local businesses and churches that allow them to use their parking lots on weekends to deliver pet care in the neighborhood.
They have limited pricing details on their website for other offerings like vaccinations; however, they provide affordable spay and neuter services ranging between $55 and $85.
Clients love these reasonably priced services, but apart from that, their team is also known for being efficient and knowledgeable about pets and their needs.
People curious about booking their services should keep in mind that the team serves a substantial number of pet owners each day, so you’ll just have to check their scheduled stops.
While the first-come, first-served system may be inconvenient for some, their services are still a go-to option for budget-friendly pet care services in the area.
Fast, friendly, and well-organized
“Had a great first experience. Well staffed, well organized and friendly service. Banfield wanted $290 for the shots for my 2 pups. I spent $125 here. The service was faster and friendlier and they didn’t try to sell me 10 things I couldn’t afford. I was there 50 minutes before the truck and was number 3 in line. My total time there was about 65 mins. Not bad at all.”

Incredibly friendly, efficient, and reasonably priced
“This place is absolutely fantastic! Being able to take your pet to a clinic, with a variety of places to choose from, on a Saturday, in the afternoon is such a blessing. This team is incredibly friendly and efficient, has a bowl and water available for your pup, forms already printed for you to fill out upon arrival, and very knowledgeable! Even better, we were expecting to have to pay a premium for Saturday care and this is the most reasonably priced vet we have seen. Cannot recommend enough.”

3. Your Home Vet
Phone: +19044144242
Business hours:
- Mon–Thurs: 9:00am – 7:00pm
- Fri–Sun: closed
End-of-life services are something pet owners would never dream of. That said, there are instances when our furry friend’s quality of life must be assessed.
Your Home Vet specializes in in-home vet services that encompass hospice and end-of-life care.
My friend Sasha discovered their team. These moments are incredibly sensitive, so the team’s compassionate handling of the situation was deeply appreciated.
They offer convenient telemedicine for hospice follow-up consultations, so you wouldn’t have to leave your pet at home or bring them with you.
Their team focuses only on hospice and in-home euthanasia, so Your Home Vet doesn’t offer basic pet needs like general check-ups. Their specialized service, however, makes them a crucial element for those looking for gentle approaches during sensitive times.
Gentle, caring, and patient
“We had to make the tough decision to put our fur baby down and wanted to do it at home. I called around trying to find someone who could come the day of, as I couldn’t keep seeing my baby suffer. Dr. Maines quickly responded to my voicemail and was able to open up a spot for us. She was so gentle and caring. She was patient with us as we needed a few last moments with our boy. The process went as smooth as you could expect giving the circumstances. You can tell Dr. Maines is truly caring and compassionate. Thank you again Dr. Maines”

Shows sympathy, kindness, and understanding
“Words cannot describe the level of sympathy, kindness, and understanding displayed by Dr. Jessica Maines. We had a full house of family to send off our beloved Lea and end her pain & suffering in a calm peaceful humane way. Dr. Maines explained everything that was to occur and gave us space and time to say our goodbye’s. I would recommend her services to any pet owner that has a loving bond with their pet. Thank You Dr. Jessica. You made our transition and loss smoother to take in.”

4. Lap of Love
Phone: +19045080323
Business hours:
- Daily: 7:00am – 11:00pm
It’s a no-brainer that it’s a huge plus if a pet care service provides not just veterinary expertise but also emotional support resources, especially during tough times.
Lap of Love is a mobile pet clinic that specializes in hospice and in-home euthanasia, and they provide more than their specializations. They also provide Pet Loss Support resources for grieving pet owners.
Their team understands how difficult it is for pet owners to go through such a painful experience, so they also offer personal touches in aftercare like pet memorial keepsakes.
Previous clients have provided positive feedback on their compassion and respect for the pet owner’s vulnerable moment.
While they may have lapses in their results, their team’s personalized approach to each situation adds to the clinic’s appeal.
Compassionate, comforting, and understanding
“Dr. Nancy was amazing. Unfortunately, we had to say goodbye to our sweet boy today it had to be one of the hardest decisions I have ever made she was compassionate. She was comforting understanding and absolutely a godsend. I am so thankful for you, Dr Nancy. this world needs more hearts like yours. I can’t thank you enough.”

Compassionate, and gentle
“I cannot say enough GOOD things! The gentleman who took my call this morning was so compassionate. Dr Sarah arrived at our home and instantly began loving on our Buddy! She explained what the process looked like and then asked us to let her know when we were ready to begin. We didn’t feel rushed at all. She talked us through all the steps involved. She gave us private time to be with him. She so carefully wrapped him in a very soft blanket and allowed my husband to carry Buddy to her car. She promised to be so gentle with him. I’d recommend them hands down!”

5. Dr. Katie, The Hospice Vet
Phone: +19045213440
Business hours:
- Mon–Fri: 8:00am – 6:00pm
- Sat–Sun: closed
Goodbyes are always difficult, so it’s helpful that Dr. Katie offers compassionate in-home hospice and euthanasia. Dr. Katie offers quality-of-life consultations to assess if euthanasia is appropriate in the first place.
24-hour emergency hotlines are available for any immediate needs, so her services also give peace of mind that someone who cares is available to answer calls in the middle of the night.
Their services, like in-home euthanasia, may be at a higher price, and they charge additional fees for aftercare services like cremation, which can go up to $375. That said, their expressions of care for pets and pet owners are priceless.
If you need someone who offers grief counseling as well, Dr. Katie may fit the bill.
Showed kindness and compassion
“Dr Katie is the epitome of kindness, compassion and called to a profession! We had her come help transition both of our dogs over the rainbow bridge and both times, we felt completely supported and cared for in the one hardest things we have ever gone through. I recommend her to anyone who wants to help their pet transition at home in their comfortable familiar space. She made the process so easy and safe. Thank you, Dr Katie, from our whole heart 💜”

The most peaceful experience
“Dr. Katie is amazing , we had to say goodbye to our 16 year old Maltese today , Dr. Katie was at our house in 10 minutes and it was the most peaceful experience we could have imagined, I would recommend anyone who has a pet at the end of life stage to contact Dr. Katie. I can’t say enough about how great she was for us. Thank you so much for making Abby comfortable. You will always have a special place in our hearts.”
