At Home Veterinary Services

I can’t say enough praise for At Home Veterinary services. Our cat was diagnosed with cancer and we had to make the heartbreaking decision to end her suffering. We wanted the end to come as peacefully as possible for her and didn’t want to have to go travel to our normal vet, which always freaked her out. Tisha and Rachel came to our house and talked to us for awhile about our options. They gave our cat a gentle exam and told us they agreed with our decision that it was time for her to go. They were both very sympathetic and gave us as much time as we needed with her. When it was time they gave her a sedative first and she went peacefully resting on her normal spot on the bed. It went as well as something like this possibly could. Thank you Tisha and Rachel for being there on one of the worst days a pet owner could experience. We are very grateful to you both!

Amazing service. I never thought I’d see a cat so happy to get vaccinated. The reviews are all true here.

This is my second and, for a while, last review of the service, compassion and care we have received from this amazing group of people.
Saying good-​bye is one of the most difficult parts of having pets as our companions and I can’t imagine having to go through what we’ve been through without the wonderful support and guidance we received from everyone at At Home Veterinary Services.
We said farewell to our sweet loving 16 year old kitty Sabrina in September, 2014, our dear wonderful kitty 17 year old Romeo in December, 2014 and then the ham of all hams super special 15 year old kitty Taffy 10 days ago. Our hearts are aching right now and it feels like they will never heal but we know eventually they will.
Dr. Posey has been so compassionate along the way and ached right along with us as we made our agonizing decisions to do what was best for each one and send them on their way to feel healthy and pain free again.
We appreciate everyone who has taken care of us on the phone, via email, in person and lastly in writing in their sweet condolence card we received after each one has crossed over the rainbow bridge. If you ever need the service of an In Home Vet or even if you don’t think you do, please call them for the tough times, as well as the good ones. You will be so grateful

Dr. Mesher was incredibly caring and competent in helping us say goodbye to our 13 year old Joey. She also helped us get an issue with our Lucy diagnosed. I can’t say enough good things about her practice. I will be recommending her to all my friends and family!

I contacted this team one morning when I thought my almost two year old cat had a bladder infection… no big deal… or so I thought. An appointment was set for that very afternoon. Shortly after that phone call Angie called me back to ask a few more questions. She had a suspicion that the problem was more serious than I had thought. She arranged for Dr Posey and herself to arrive earlier than planned, just to be safe. Sure enough, my cat had a severe urinary blockage, immediately life threatening. And Angie had deduced that from the scattered information I had been giving her over the phone. The two of them manually (with a needle and syringe) removed as much urine from the bladder as possible and gave him a shot of pain medicine to make his trip to the emergency clinic as least excruciating as possible. When we reached the emergency clinic and the surgeons and vets assessed my cat they were floored at the level of intuition and compassion Dr Posey and Angie demonstrated. They sang their praises and assured me I had contacted the exact right team.
As if this level of technical expertise isn’t enough, every single member of this team seems to be some sort angel sent from heaven. As Dr Posey and Angie left my house that day they both hugged me. They did not hand me a bill and march out my door to their next appointment. They were warm and soft and kind and they hugged me. Not only are they some sort of animal whisperers they also instinctively know how to soothe and care for us humans in the picture. It is so crystal clear that these people aren’t just «doing their job». They genuinely love and care for all of us and that is something that cannot be learned in college or at an internship. It’s just a quality that is a part of them.
Rest assured, if you give them a call they will take as much time as YOU need discussing your situation on the phone. They will arrive at your home on time, fully equipped to care for your furry friend. They will get down on the floor with your pet and cuddle and comfort them. And they will not leave until they are certain your pet, and you, are taken care of the the fullest extent. But they won’t be finished with you after they leave! They will call or email you shortly after their visit, to chat and make sure everyone is happy and healthy.
No more frightening drives to the clinic. No more cold, hard metal exam tables. No more strange sounds or smells. Just soft, warm, loving hands and hearts to soothe and heal. What a beautiful gift!

It was time for our beloved cat to rest in peace, but I didn’t want going to the vet’s office to be the last experience she had. Having At Home Veterinary Services come to our home was so comforting. Dr. Mesher and her Assistant were compassionate and let us move at a pace that we were comfortable with. For such a sad day, I at least have the comfort of knowing that our kitty was at home, at peace, and in the capable hands of people who cared and respected her. I am so beyond thankful for their in-​home services. Thank you for making this day run as smoothly as possible. And thank you for your gentleness and compassion. You made a rough day a bit easier.

Dr. Mesher and her team are truly amazing! They really care about all of my pets and were there for us when we suddenly lost our cat last year. Everyone is extremely compassionate, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. I can’t recommend Dr. Mesher enough.

For our two cats, it doesn’t get better than Dr. Mesher, Dr. Dillon, the assistants, husband Ryan and everyone we’ve had the pleasure to meet or talk to affiliated with this incredible practice! Our older cat Callie is having major chronic issues, and I find the care she’s receiving has her in better and more comfortable health than while being treated by a highly respected specialist in San Diego County before moving to Portland. Callie was wasting away in front of our eyes with severe pancreatitis and inflammatory bowel disease. Of course those conditions still exist, but her pain is managed so well that she’s playful and affectionate, and she’s put on 1−½ lbs, losing that «skeleton with fur» look that scared us to see happening.
On top of first-​rate medical care, we’ve never met more compassionate and caring vets and staff in all the years we’ve been adopting and caring for cats. Honestly, I feel more like a friend than a client. As long as this practice exists, we will be loyal clients. And we’ll continue to recommend them to anyone looking for a vet they can trust with their furry (or not so furry) loved ones.

I can’t say enough good words about Dr. Mesher and Dr. Dillon. They both treated my elderly cat Zoya before she died last June. After her passing, Dr. Mesher was kind to give me an hour of her time talking me down because I was so distraught. I think of them both as my «home vets» and will call them for future issues with my remaining two cats. Friendly, competent, compassionate and affordable home vet service — the best! (please be aware that any home vet will cost more than a brick-​and-​mortar vet office, but the ease and comfort of your animals is the reward.)

Dr. Mesher is amazing. My husband and I recently moved back to Portland, we were in search of a good at home vet for our oldest kitty. We set an appointment window and right on time, Dr. Mesher and her assistant were at our home. She was attentive, answered all our questions and helped us prepare for a very difficult decision that was going to be approaching.
When the time came to put our kitty to sleep, we called Dr. Mesher. She was able to come to our home within 24 hours, but gave us the name and number of another doctor incase the situation worsened in the middle of the night. It was an incredibly hard thing to do, but we knew it was her time. Dr. Mesher was compassionate and very sensitive to the situation.
I would highly recommend her services. We plan to use her for our other cats.

Dr. Mesher is competent and compassionate. We recently had to euthanize our beloved cat and her expertise and intuition were above and beyond anything we could have hoped for during such a painful time and difficult decision.
The prices are extremely reasonable for at home care. I highly recommend At Home Veterinary Services for your medical pet needs.

There is a reason why EVERY review is 5 stars — this place and these people are phenomenal!
They are true animal lovers — caring about their craft and patients (pets and people). Dr. Dillon and Jenn are my primaries, and finding an in-​home vet is a huge relief. It puts our anipals at ease, and to watch Dr. Dillon and Jenn play with our pets like they’re their own is magical.
I honestly find the prices to be very good — you pay a small premium to have them in your home, but they spend oodles of time to ensure your pets are healthy and happy.
They were with us when we had to euthanize our elderly cat — it’s a terrible decision to have to make, but Dr. Dillon and Jenn were with us every step of the way. Answering questions, going over options and prognoses, and even shedding tears with us. They were respectful, tactful, and comforting in the most harrowing of times of being an animal’s person.
I think of them as family and refer them with zeal because they are simply put, the best.

Today Dr Mesher and her technician helped me euthanize my 11 year old previously feral cat named Genie. They made a very emotional process easier with their professional and compassionate approach. Dr Mesher spoke with me at length on the phone when I was trying to make a decision about my cat’s future. I felt very heard and I also felt that she had my cat’s best interest in the forefront of her mind.
We started having both our cats seen by At Home Veterinary Services because of Genie’s anxiety and fearfulness. it was nearly impossible to get her in a carrier and bring her to a vet’s office. While you pay more for the home visit, it is just lovely to have the pets seen in their own environment.
Dr Mesher and her staff are total animal lovers and I feel they are motivated by more than the business side of things. I whole heartedly recommend their complete range of veterinary services.

At Home Vet is the best. Thanks to two needy dogs, we’ve worked with everyone on the staff many times, including the substitutes! The kindness they’ve shown to our pets and to us through the years has been amazing (it wasn’t until working with At Home Vet that I realized the best vets take care of more than just the furry members of the family). They know their stuff, arrive on time, and are always willing to go the extra mile in terms of follow-​up care and communication. Plus, they are so sweet to the pets! With At Home Vet’s help, our chocolate lab lived to be 16 years old comfortably and happily right down to her last breath, something I will always be thankful for. These days, they’re helping us with our rescue beagle who arrived with a multitude of issues. Once again, they’ve put together an excellent plan for her health and well-​being, and once again, we realize just how much we love these people. Even more importantly– so do our pets. We were lucky to have At Home Vet recommended to us back in the day; these days, we’re pleased to recommend them to anyone else who wants an excellent veterinary team. They are the best!

Several years ago I had a broken hip and found it difficult to take my 2 large dogs (over 50 lbs.) to the vet. Dr. Mesher came to my house, examined my girls, and gave their routine vaccinations. The cost was higher than a walk in vet where I usually went, but the service and lack of stress on me and the dogs was worth every penny. My girls love Dr. Mesher and her associates. I can email her on the weekend and she will email me back almost immediately with an answer. You don’t get that from most vets today. She will get down on my dirty dog hair filled floor to examine the girls. She has done everything from clip their nails to test for cancer in tumors which were benign. As my girls and I grow older I know Dr. Mesher will be there for the senior years when we will make hard decisions.

What is better than having a super skilled and friendly vet visit you & your pets at your home rather than torturing your little furry loved ones in a carrier to bring them to a vets office?! Nothing.
This service was Heaven-​sent!!!
LOVE THEM.

Dr. Mesher helped us care for our aging cat, Louise, improving the last year of her life dramatically. Then, when her quality of life declined, Dr. Mesher put her to sleep while Louise laid in my lap. I still get a little weepy. Louise was a beautiful, loving cat and she deserved a peaceful ending with her family. I’m am so grateful for At Home Vet Services and Dr. Mesher for giving us that gift.

Dr. Mesher and her staff have been great from our first experience. In October we had just moved cross country and had 2 dogs with what we thought might be bad ear infections the day we arrived — Dr. Louise fit us in that day not wanting our pets to suffer needlessly. Since then she’s been caring for all 3 of our dogs who range in age from puppy to almost 15!
Dr. Mesher was also great about coordinating care with DoveLewis when our oldest needed surgery recently. She’s up to speed on the latest treatments and offered us some arthritis options that our previous vets in Chicago didn’t even tell us about. It has made a huge difference in the quality of life for our pets.
So not only do you get great veterinary care, but you get it in the comfort of your home with the focus and attention your furry kids deserve and like so much better!

We very pleased by the service provided by Dr. Mesher and Jenn. We were desperately seeking a vet to come into our home and put our suddenly dying cat to sleep because she was suffering. At home vet services contacted us ASAP that am and let us know they had an opening in their schedule and were able to come by that day. We are very grateful that Dr. Mesher and Jenn were able to come over in such a timely fashion and not let our much beloved cat suffer. Both Jenn and Dr. Mesher were very supportive and compassionate of our loss of a much beloved pet. The procedure for euthanasia went very smoothly and Dr. Mesher let us know what she was doing through out the procedure. Our kitty died on my mother’s lap peacefully. At Home Veterinary Services did us a great service. thank you!

I will start by saying that I was a bit nervous to have a veterinarian come to my house but there was no other option for our dog Blade. Our 13 year old, 105 lbs, black Lab Mastiff mix could not get himself up, and my husband and I couldn’t lift him into our car. Dr. Mesher came to our home and I no longer felt nervous. She and her staff were all very kind and comfortable to be around. She was even ok with me leaving the room because of anxiety that I deal with. They all treated Blade so wonderfully and showered him with love and wonderful care! She gave us all of our options in moving forward and even helped us work in our budget.
We ended up having to put Blade down because there was no improvement and he was no longer able to get up at all. When we called to make an appointment they fit us in that day (today). Dr. Mesher was not able to make it out today and I am sorry to say I can’t remember the name of the woman that came (I’m so sorry!!) but they had so much compassion! They walked us through all of the steps they were going to do before hand so we weren’t caught off guard by anything. We were allowed to be right there with Blade every step of the way and were not rushed when they gave us time after he passed. They were very comforting to me and I am so thankful for the help they gave out family!
I cannot express how caring and and compassionate they were at both visits. Thank you for making this hard transition slightly easier on us!
