Up The Marble Steps,
Into The Front Room
Total Vet visits homes all over Baltimore City, from the narrow blocks of Canton to the older streets around Roland Park. Rowhouse stairs are no fun with a carrier and a nervous cat, and street parking outside a clinic is worse — so the doctor walks up your steps instead.
Mobile vet services in Baltimore
Everything below happens in your own front room, in a city where finding a parking spot outside a clinic can take longer than the appointment.
Wellness Exams
A full annual assessment in the front room, with weight, teeth and joint comfort recorded each year so a slow decline shows up as a trend rather than a surprise.
Vaccinations
Rabies to satisfy the city, plus the tick-related and boarding vaccines that matter for a dog walking Patterson Park daily or heading out to the Eastern Shore.
Sick Visits
Persistent itching, a limp that came on overnight, a cat suddenly hiding in the basement. Examined in the house and started on treatment the same visit.
Diagnostics & Labs
Blood, urine and cytology taken at the kitchen table, with tick-borne panels run as standard because Maryland has a real Lyme burden and we would rather know.
End-of-Life Care
Hospice conversations early, and when it is right, a gentle end in the room your animal always chose. Family present, no clinic, and aftercare organised for you.
Telehealth
Video rechecks for patients already under our care, which spares an old dog a second trip down a flight of steps it barely managed the first time.

Parked on the block
From Locust Point up to Woodberry, the practice comes inside the rowhouse, which spares the cat the stairs, spares you the parking, and gives the doctor time to actually look at the animal.

Caring for pets in Baltimore
This is a dense, walkable, stoop-sitting city where most dogs get their exercise on pavement and in a handful of very well-used parks — and where the tick pressure just outside the city line is higher than people assume.
Maryland's tick problem
Lyme disease is well established here, and a weekend outside the Beltway is all it takes. We screen for tick-borne infection with the annual bloodwork rather than waiting for symptoms.
Salted brick and sidewalk
Winter treatments on narrow pavements crack pads and irritate skin, and dogs lick it off their feet indoors. A rinse at the door handles most of it before it becomes a problem.
Where the city walks
Patterson Park is the daily loop for half of southeast Baltimore, Latrobe Park serves Locust Point, and Lake Roland's fenced dog area gives room the rowhouse blocks cannot.
A city licence, not a county one
Baltimore City licenses separately from Baltimore County, and it covers cats as well as dogs from four months old, due within ten days of the animal arriving. We vaccinate and hand you the certificate.

Questions Baltimore pet owners ask us
If it will not keep until morning, Falls Road Animal Hospital runs a genuine round-the-clock emergency service inside the city, and VEG ER for Pets on Reisterstown Road in Pikesville takes walk-in emergencies at any hour as well.
"Two flights of stairs, a cat who screams in the carrier, and nowhere to park at the clinic. Someone came to our house in Patterson Park and the whole thing was done before I'd finished my coffee."
