Save The Drive
For The Mountains

Total Vet brings veterinarians to homes across El Paso County, from the older streets below Cheyenne Cañon to the newer cul-de-sacs out past Powers. Your dog spends enough time in the back of a vehicle heading somewhere good — a vet appointment doesn't need to be one of those trips.

Mobile vet services in Colorado Springs

Everything an active dog or an indoor cat needs across a year, handled where they live rather than where we park.

Wellness Exams

Head-to-tail checks with real attention to cruciate ligaments and shoulders, because a dog that runs Ute Valley twice a week accumulates wear a sedentary animal never does.

Vaccinations

Rabies and the core series, plus a frank conversation about the rattlesnake vaccine if your walks run through Red Rock Canyon or anywhere below the foothills in summer.

Sick Visits

Sudden limping after a hard weekend, a cough that lingers in dry air, a grass awn buried in a paw. Assessed at home, treated the same visit where we can.

Diagnostics & Labs

Full blood panels, urinalysis and cytology drawn on your floor and processed from the vehicle, so we can discuss the numbers before the appointment is over.

End-of-Life Care

A last visit in the sunny spot by the window, or out on the deck with the ridge in view. Unhurried, family present, and the arrangements afterwards handled by us.

Telehealth

Video follow-ups for patients we already know, which beats bringing a recovering dog back out on a January morning when the roads have iced overnight.

Rig at the kerb

From Ivywild up to Cordera, the appointment happens at your address, which matters most for the stiff old dog who finds the jump into the back of the truck harder every year.

Why Colorado Springs pet owners choose us

Traditional Clinic

  • Loading a sore dog into the truck the day after a long hike
  • Powers Boulevard at five with an anxious passenger
  • A waiting room full of dogs who all want to say hello
  • Rescheduling because the first snow closed everything
  • A rushed consult that skips the questions you had

Total Vet Mobile Care

  • The vet drives the icy road, not you
  • Sore joints get examined without a jump into a vehicle
  • Cats stay indoors, unbothered and unmoved
  • One clinician tracking your dog's fitness year to year
  • Time to actually discuss the hiking plan and the risks

Caring for pets in Colorado Springs

Six thousand feet changes the medicine. Air is thinner and far drier, the sun is stronger than the temperature suggests, and a great many patients here are genuine athletes with the injuries to match.

Thin, dry air

Dogs newly arrived from sea level tire faster and dehydrate quicker than their owners expect. Give a few weeks of easier outings and carry more water than seems necessary.

Snakes and grass awns

Prairie rattlesnakes use the lower trails in warm months, and cheatgrass awns work into paws, ears and noses all summer. Both are worth a conversation before hiking season, not after.

Where dogs actually go

Bear Creek Dog Park has fenced acreage and creek access, Palmer Park's trails run right through town, and Garden of the Gods stays leashed but is walked daily by half the city.

Cats need a licence here

The Humane Society of the Pikes Peak Region handles licensing, and inside Colorado Springs both dogs and cats over four months must be licensed — in the surrounding county, cats are voluntary.

Questions Colorado Springs pet owners ask us

Very little — a room with light and floor space, and any cat's bolt-hole closed off beforehand. If your street is unploughed after a storm or the drive is steep, mention it when booking so we can bring the right vehicle and allow the extra time.

They aren't. Anaesthesia and imaging require a fixed hospital, so we refer to established Colorado Springs surgical practices and forward the file in advance. The consultation that decides it and the recheck that follows both happen at your house.

Yes — policies here treat it like any other appointment. We email a coded, itemised invoice the same day, and most people find the claim goes through without a query.

Per visit for the travel, then a reduced examination rate for every animal after the first. A household with two dogs and a cat is one appointment, one trip charge and three exams.

Straight to an emergency hospital rather than waiting for us. Southern Rockies Animal Emergency & Specialty takes walk-in emergencies at any hour, and North Springs Veterinary Referral Center on the north side also runs overnight. Ring us the following day for the follow-up.

Card or phone at the door, taken on the doctor's tablet once the exam wraps up. Your receipt is emailed immediately and there's nothing outstanding afterwards.

With a day's notice, yes, at no cost. Our doctors run the city in geographic blocks — the west side and Old Colorado City on one round, the north-east on another — so telling us early lets a neighbour take your place.

For anything that cannot wait for morning, Southern Rockies Animal Emergency & Specialty staffs emergency clinicians continuously, and North Springs Veterinary Referral Center at 10520 White Diamond Point keeps an emergency team on through the night as well.

"Our shepherd blew a cruciate and could barely stand, let alone get into the car. Having the vet come to the house for the assessment and then every recheck afterwards was the only reason it wasn't a nightmare."
