Why Toorak pet owners choose First Paw Mobile Veterinarian
Between tight heritage driveways, busy professional schedules, and pets who find clinic visits stressful, a mobile vet simply fits Toorak life better than a traditional clinic appointment.
Skip the Toorak Road traffic and parking
Skip the drive across Toorak Road or Malvern Road and the parking hunt near Toorak Village. First Paw comes to your door at a set time.
Gentler on small breeds and senior pets
Toorak is full of Cavoodles, Frenchies and older companions. Examining them at home avoids waiting-room stress, barking strangers, and the anxiety many small dogs show in clinics.
Privacy and time that suits your schedule
First Paw Mobile Veterinarian works around you. Appointments start on time in your home or garden, with no shared waiting room and no rushed consult.
Toorak Pets Live well, and First Paw Mobile Veterinarian aims to keeps it that way.
Morning walks along the Yarra trail at Como Park, off-leash runs at Grant Avenue Reserve, and weekend strolls through Toorak Village mean plenty of exposure to grass seeds, paspalum, and the occasional bindi picked up in Orrong Park. If your dog comes home itching after a loop around Hedgeley Dene Gardens, or your cat slips out into the leafy backyards off St Georges Road, a same-week home visit is easier than squeezing into a clinic. For pampered cats who never leave the house, annual checks happen on the windowsill they already love. Dr Laurence covers all of Toorak, 3142, without the stress of a car trip down Toorak Road.

Dr Laurence is a truly caring vet, and I recommend him to anyone who needs a vet. He saved my cat so much pain and gave me peace of mind. Thank you.
Good service but honestly very expensive considering
Nelson my 5yr old 60kg Belgium Shepherd was in obvious pain continual crying followed by screeching when he would try to stand up, bloated stomach - nothing made sense we thought Nelson was dying right in front of us. The feeling of hopelessness not knowing how to help Nelson In walks Laurence Cut a long story short Nelson just got home from his walk - his never been fitter and healthier Laurence is a gun
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 :)
Had great service from Lawrence who was away on leave, but still called me back regarding our new puppys health check enquriy, and whilst he wasnt able to see us at the last minute which was completly reasonable, even took the time to answer questions, give further recommendations to others and also sent a free e book, will defintely keep in mind for our next visit.
The team at First Paw are simply amazing. I am thrilled that this at-home service exists as my little dude Aragorn is terrified by clinics, he's often anxious and sometimes a little too excited! Dr Lawrence was able to administer a vaccination with care and love. We also met the wonderful Dr Abby and team who did a thorough health check - everyone was just lovely and caring of our little guy. Thanks so much team! I'll now be booking First Paw at home any time Aragorn needs a check up, discussion or vaccine.
Awesome service provided by veterinarian, Laurence, during the stage 4 COVID-19 lockdown. We started to notice that our border collie was having some issues related to his rear-end and our cat hat been scratching at his face near his ear. We didn't want to deal with the logistics and risk of transporting both pets and also all the additional measures required due to the lockdown at our regular clinic. We setup an online appointment via the website and Laurence arrived right at the scheduled appointment time. We did a 15-minute phone consultation before Laurence entered the property. Laurence was very thorough with the examination and also provided a full general health check on our pets. Very kind and considerate and talked us through all the examinations and provided a lot of background on what was happening, also checking in a few days later. Really lifted the bar beyond what we were used to with our other highly-rated and regarded local clinic, would definitely use the service again without hesitation.
Always great service and just what we need for our cat :)
“We prefer the less intrusive environment”. Says our cats. It is so much less stress having Laurence visit our home and see the cats in their own environment. They think he’s just an odd family friend who takes extra interest in them and their weight and teeth 😹 Highly recommend. Experienced, reliable, kind & very in tune to the pets.
This is a fantastic service, the vet (Laurence) was great, he was very well organised and thourough. It was a much better experience having him come to us, more relaxed for us and our pets. Laurence is very approachable and knowledable so he will answer any questions and explains everything very well. Prices are very reasonable, so even with the call out fee it was still cheaper than visiting a vet sugery, great value. I have recommended this service to everyone I know and will be a loyal customer myself from now on.
Laurence from First Paw’s service was second to none. He showed genuine care and respect for myself and my pup while being quick and effective. He was more than happy to answer any questions I had and provided some great hints and tips to care for pooch. So friendly! The mobile VET service is great and incredibly convenient for us busy city slickers.
Thanks Dr Laurence for being really detailed and for also making our pup feel comfortable and relaxed. Highly recommend!
