We serve clients and patients in South New Jersey, North New Jersey and parts of the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area with three hospital locations in Mount Laurel and Atco, NJ, and Morrisville, PA. Our hospitals are state of the art outpatient care facilities where we do surgery, dentistry, and a number of other procedures.
Our vets are enthusiastic about bringing a compassionate, full-service experience to their patients in the comforts of their own home. HousePaws veterinarians are highly skilled and enjoy a high volume of diverse cases. Our case load includes individualized preventative health care, sick and emergency care, as well as surgical and dental care for veterinarians with interest and skills in-hospital procedures.
Working with our mobile practice is unlike the traditional hospital-based job. No day is the same as the day before and each day will have challenges and surprises that will keep you on your toes. You’ll also find that the rewards of mobile practice are numerous.
You’ll develop a familiarity and relationship with clients, who will often become repeat clients, and soon feel like family.
