Veterinary Housecall Services

So happy with everyone here. They truly care about my babies and are very helpful with quick questions over the phone. And I love the option is always there to have a Housecall if necessary. And I’ve had two instances where I’ve had to come in for an emergency and they have taken me right in and gotten my baby the care she needs. And always explain everything fully and so I can understand. Stellar top notch vet practice!

Only used them once, when I needed assistance the most to put my beloved dog to rest in my home. Dr. Golden has my sincere gratitude for being an understanding and compassionate gentleman. There is never a ‘right way’ to euthanize a loved pet, but Dr. Golden made it a gentle memory for me.

My vet service for the long haul. Dr. Schmoll went out of her way to see my cat for his first visit with her. The housecall was so easy for my newly adopted shelter cat and kept his anxiety to a minimum. She spent the time to discuss the problem and the treatment in detail. The best service you can find with one of the best Vets I have met.

After trying several different veterinary hospitals and finding none as good as my previous one (Greater Annapolis), I discovered Dr. Ruth and Veterinary Housecall Services. Excellent service, reasonable prices, and she is extremely thorough! After discussing various options for my shepherd who was starting to have hip problems, ranging from adding supplements to seeing a specialist and surgery, she typed up everything we had discussed (4 pages!) to include food and supplement recommendations and names and numbers of specialists I could contact. She has always discussed all the options available and the pros and cons of each. This is an EXCELLENT place!
I also did make use of their housecall services once, when I had two large dogs and a cat in need of vaccinations and didn’t feel like stuffing them all into the car. Adds to the cost, but definitely worth it if you have an animal that’s afraid of the vet’s office.
BTW, having worked as a Veterinary Assistant through high school and part of college, I think my expectations might be a bit higher than average.

Caring, Concerned & Compassionate…
I have found the staff & the Dr’s here to be knowledgeable and helpful. Dr. Ruth saw our rescue dog and was very kind and gentle with him as it was his first time seeing a vet in a few years. We had to take him back because he apparently had a reaction to some meds. She wasn’t there when I took him back, but we received excellent consultation from Dr. Golden. We’ve received follow-​up phone calls from staff and from Dr. Ruth to check on the status of our pup. I am very impressed with the level of service and knowledge of everyone we’ve spoken with. I highly recommend this vet!

JUST THE BEST!
My family has used Dr. Golden, Dr Ruth and Dr Schmol for years and our pets have received the best possible care, I think that they are the best people around. I was not satisfied with the service we were getting from our previous vet and transferred here. The fact that they will come to your house if necessary is a really great service as it can cut down on the trauma some animals feel about traveling or going into the clinic. I couldn’t fault them on anything, all the staff are super animal friendly.
JUST THE BEST!

Veterinary Housecall Service has always taken good care of my cat. The staff is kind and courteous.

Hands down the best Veterinary care in the Crofton area. I am unbelievably thankful that I found Veterinary house call services. After trying three other vets in the area I was ready to broaden the search and sacrifice convenience of location for top notch care and customer service. And then I found this Crofton vet tucked away behind the Silver Diner.
I have never seen more caring, compassionate professionals. The customer service is awesome and there is never a wait or rushing with your furry babies. They care about your pets as much as you do. Very grateful to be back with Dr. Ruth!

GO HERE. unbelievable customer service and knowledge of pets. my pet being a cat… got me in… printed out a review of the conversation. follow up great. I am not going to go on and on. this business should get 10 stars…

Here’s the deal. This is a 5 star veterinary. I’m giving it four stars instead of five because they need some serious work keeping their books straight. Make sure the meds are right, make sure your bill is right, and make sure they perform all the tasks you have requested. If you go in vigilant yourself, then you won’t have any trouble and you’ll get great care for your pet. I do recommend them. I highly recommend them. Just help them keep things straight and your pet will do well!

I cannot say enough good things about the people who work here. Even though, since I cannot drive my parents must take my animals to this vet or they have come to the house too. Dr. Golden is a dream. He is really very professional and he sticks to your animal like glue until he is sure the problem, if it can be fixed, is fixed. We also love Dr. Ruth. She has been taking care of our thirteen year old standard poodle and recently, merely by doing an accidental test, saved her LIFE!!! We have three dogs and two cats. One of the dogs is seventeen years young and I attribute his longevity to the people who work here. Dr. Shmalls (spelling?) is also an angel. Every single one of these people from the techs, to the receptionists, to ALL the vets, are far superior than most. We do not want to leave anyone out but, at the moment, all the names are not coming to me. There is another vet there whose name I think begins with a V and she is also someone my parents speak VERY highly of. If you live anywhere near the Crofton area, and you have a pet whom you consider to be a member of the family, you are NOT doing them justice, if you do not take them to Dr. Golden and his staff. They are the best in the entire state of Maryland, in my humble opinion. You can tell them you were sent by this site. Dawn’s animal family just loves them.
