Laurence was great with my 3 month old puppy and 8 year old dog! Very professional and answered all my questions... and the doggos loved him :)

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

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 :)

I booked an appointment with First Paw to come and vaccinate my rather anxious 10 year old Weimaraner Dempsey - Great experience all round !! Dempsey loved the vet and it really took away all the anxiety and pain of getting him to the vet - will definitely use First Paw again, he really knew his stuff and was so lovely to my dog!! Thanks First Paw!

What a sensational service! As a first time puppy owner the idea of taking my puppy to the vet just for a puppy check up was daunting. To have the stress of transportation removed and little Baxter seen in his own environment was a relief but Dr Laurence's value is not just limited to convenience. He was very generous in sharing advice and tips for future care, very professional but relaxed and calming at the same time. I will have a local vet but will use First Paw as well. Oh and my puppy liked Dr Laurence so much that he tried to follow him out the gate!

Dr Laurence was excellent with our 8 year old nervous cat. He clearly loves animals and took the time to get to know our cat and his history. He also provided detailed advice which was appreciated. Highly recommended.

We called on First Paw to assist us with a health check of our cat amidst the lockdown in Melbourne, when our usual vet had quite a long wait for the next available appointment. Dr Laurence was friendly and professional, arriving on time and ensuring he used Covid Safe protocols during the visit. He was extremely thorough and knowledgeable in obtaining a health history and whilst examining our cat. Our little guy can be quite skittish with strangers in our home, but Dr Laurence was excellent in keeping him calm and reassured throughout the check up. I highly recommend using First Paw for your pets needs, not only for the convenience of being a mobile vet but also for the high quality of care that they provide. I will no doubt be using their services again in the future. Thanks again Dr Laurence and First Paw Mobile Vet!

Usually going to the vet is a stress inducing episode but our cat Nola was so well behaved at home with Laurence with First Paw - we will be using these guys again!

I got my puppy during the COVID-19 distancing rules, and was pleased to find First Paw Mobile Vet could come to my house so I could be with my puppy while he got his exam and vaccination. They were diligent about wearing a mask & gloves, hand washing, keeping distance from me as much as possible, and keeping the time in my home short, to minimise risk to me and my household, as well as the community. Dr Laurence was thorough, professional and friendly.
