Our reviews
We have been rated 5 stars not just for our expertise but also for our compassion towards animals and customer service.
My cat it’s a bit tricky but with the help of Laurence and first Paw I could get everything done for her; the service was amazing, the way laurence handled my cat was really good so honestly I highly recommend this guys.
Laurence has been wonderful with our animals. He is knowledgeable, offers different care options and obviously has a genuine love of animals. Booking is easy, communication is excellent and follow up is always consistent. Would recommend 100% for anyone looking for a mobile vet. Not having to load everyone into the car is just a bonus!
Laurence was FANTASTIC! Having a toddler running a muck and 6 pets that needed tending to - It was made a breeze in the comfort of my home by First Paw Mobile Vet...from booking right through to payment it all worked effortlessly. Cannot recommend you enough...thanks L!
Dr Laurence was very professional and you can tell that he really cares for your pet. It was easy to make a booking and the service is very convenient. The initial phone call was super friendly and the consultation was clear and thorough. He also followed up and sent a message a few days later to check up on my pup which was amazing. Overall I definitely recommend First Paw Mobile Vet :)
Lawrence came and had a look at my Cat. He was kind, informative, professional and knows what he’s taking about. My cat is on the mend and I would recommend his services to everyone!
Great service, very attentive to the pets.
Nothing but good things to say about Laurence! He was responsive, reliable, super caring and very knowledgeable! Highly recommend and also really great value
Laurence was very through and caring. He was respectful of my dogs attitude to strangers and in particulary vets without neglecting him. He asked lots of question to be able to understand my dogs issues. Happy how the experience went as there was no stressful scenes trying to get my dog to a vet. Also checked on my elderly cats and didn't seem distressed by the experience. Overall very happy fur family thank you
Laurence was very prompt, asked all the right questions, and showed great care with my sore, big dog. Having him come over for a front porch consultation was so great not to have to lift the dog in and out of the car to the vet. Very comprehensive. Thanks
Friendly and respectful, he is a very acknowledged and professional person. I like how he was explaining throughout the whole examination. And it’s very convenient to have a vet come to ur apartment. Def recommend. Great service
Laurence was great! Punctual and extremely professional, definitely knows all things when it comes to pets! No doubt our puppy cavoodle is in good hands. Love that this service is mobile! Came right to our house and had the vet appointment in the comfort of our own home! Winning!
Dr Laurence was great with all three of our cats whom range from docile to crazy. Really takes the stress out of heading into a vet clinic for both owner and pet! Dr Laurence was thorough and professional and went above and beyond.

Prepare for your vet's visit
A quiet room or confined area outdoors is ideal for examination, for small dogs a table or bench is very helpful. For anxious cats, please confine them to a carrier cage, the bathroom or an enclosed room where they can’t run and hide. Please allow a half hour window for us to arrive in case of potential traffic/parking delays. Oh and don’t forget to let us know if your pet has any behaviour quirks we should know about, for safety sake 🙂

We will then conduct our house-call vet examination from the comfort of your home or workplace and give our expert treatment & advice.
