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.

Amazing service by Dr Laurence. This was my first time using a mobile vet for my new puppy and I was extremely happy I did. Laurence was very professional from the initial call before meeting little Millie, right up until the very end. He answered all of our questions and provided us with great advice and tips. I would highly recommend First Paw Mobile Vet as this service is next to none. Once again, thanks Laurence for your amazing service.
Five star service from Dr Lawrence! I highly recommend him and his team. He provided prompt professional care during a COVID lockdown - really going the extra mile to help out our GSP Pippi
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.
If there were more stars to give they would most certainly be given. Dr Laurence quickly became little Charlotte's favourite vet ever. Every detail, from booking to confirmation and actual home visit was exceptional. And all at a reasonable cost. We highly recommend First Paw
Really easy and convenient making an appointment with them. Dr Laurence is friendly and generously sharing his knowledges and advices.
You can see the passion for animals in the eyes of Dr Laurence when he interacts with your pet. He was incredibly easy to talk to and detail oriented to the tee. He even provided a puppy starter guide to help make our lives easier. Definitely give him a buzz if you are looking for a mobile vet!
Awesome guys. Great advice. Genuine care and love for your companion. They come to your house and provide great service. A+ Thanks so much!
Laurence is a fantastic vet with a gentle touch. My Leo went through multiple surgeries and vet stays last year and as a result, is terrified of vet visits. Laurence took the time to let Leo check him out and become comfortable with him before he tried to examine him. It made a huge difference to a cat that usually has to be sedated before he can be treated. I’m not sure Leo even noticed the vaccination he was given. Having a vet come to me instead of putting Leo through the stress of a car ride and unfamiliar space made for a very relaxed cat. Laurence was thorough and ask all the right questions so I was as relaxed as the cat knowing he was in good hands. I highly recommend this service and would definitely use it again.
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!
My little fur baby is not a great car traveler, and with the current COVID climate, our vet's policy is she would have to wait in her carrier in the car at the vet prior to her appointment, so to save her anxiety levels (and mine) I decided to give First Paw a go when she needed a check over recently. I was so impressed with Laurence and his professionalism, caring nature and knowledge. He rang me from the car to get a full history on my kitty, and talked me through his process for when he came inside. I mentioned to him that our last vet told me I had very anxious kitten as she would shake and try to wriggle away from the vet every time we went. But not with Laurence, he came into the home with his friendly nature and my little one went right up to him for a sniff over and rarely left the area he was in the whole time. He gave her his full attention for more than the allotted time, left me a sample that he thought might help, and followed up a few days later to see how she was going. Overall, the whole process was so easy and convenient, I'll definitely be using Laurence & First Paw again and would highly recommend him.
Laurence was very patient and kind with my rather highly strung terriers. They liked him despite the vaccinations! It was so much easier and relaxed than taking them to the vet. Thanks Laurence.
Would highly recommend good Dr Lawrence. He showed lots passion to his work and genuinely seems to care for the animal patients that he treats. Last week he looked after two Newfoundlands with routine injections. He offered lot of his time by giving very helpful advice on taking care of large breed doggos. He seems quite knowledgeable about large breed dogos and offered his valuable time to consult on their dietary requirements, teeth-care and also general health and wellbeing. Also inquired about worming and how I care for the doggos. Did not expect that sort of kindness and it is invaluable advice. Again would highly recommend good Dr Lawrence. If you read this Dr, sir thank you a lot for your assistance and care.
