Microchipping

Microchipping is a way of increasing the chance of being reunited with your pet should they go missing. Since April 2016 it has been compulsory by law to have your dog microchipped and can carry a £500 fine if your dog is not microchipped.

The microchip itself is about the size of a grain of rice and is injected under the skin between the shoulder blades. Occasionally they can move to other areas of the body. We will regularly check your pets microchip and make a note of the number and its location.

The microchips contain a unique number which is registered on a database with yours and your pets details. It is vital that your details are kept up to date.

Booking an appointment

If you’d like to arrange for us to visit your pet at home, you can either book online or phone.

John provided a service second to none, he did Poppy proud and made her passing so very easy. Having been let down at our own vet, John was able to get the home visit sorted, many, many thanks.

First class service, visited within the hour and treated my new puppy. Only problem is now she is running around doing what puppies should do. I wished I had asked about the off switch is!

We would highly recommend vet care at home. Due to covid 19 and the lockdown restrictions we weren’t able to use our regular vet for home visits. Communication was excellent and John was always very prompt in responding to calls and emails. I’m so glad they were recommended to us as they were amazing.

Competent & friendly vet, professional, competitively priced & convenient for myself. I can highly recommend, especially if you don’t have transport or your pet doesn’t like the usual veterinary setting. 5 star! ⭐️

Mobile vet for everything that doesn't require a vet surgery. Brilliant idea and will come recommended by many ?

A very professional and friendly service, putting myself and my multi-cat household at ease. Having a house visit for 5 cats is stress free, time and energy saving for the cats and me... I am so glad I found John Rosie!
