We Bring the Clinic to Your Pasture
San Diego’s premier mobile veterinary service exclusively dedicated to farm animals, small ruminants, miniature swine, and urban poultry. Diagnostic excellence, surgical intervention, and compassionate care—delivered directly to your property.
The Paradigm Shift in Livestock Medicine
The agricultural landscape of Southern California has evolved. Today, San Diego County is home to a massive resurgence in urban agriculture, hobby homesteading, and companion livestock ownership. From herds of Boer goats in the rural foothills to miniature potbellied pigs residing in suburban backyards, the demand for highly specialized large-animal veterinary care is unprecedented.
However, the traditional model of loading a sick, terrified prey animal into a trailer and hauling them to a clinical waiting room is profoundly outdated. Hauling induces massive catecholamine release (transport stress), drastically compounding respiratory distress, cardiac strain, and hyperthermia. Furthermore, bringing livestock into a centralized clinic exposes them to concentrated biological threats from other farms, shattering your herd’s biosecurity.
Vet-2-Home eliminates the trauma of transport. By operating a fully equipped mobile veterinary unit, our medical staff performs advanced diagnostics, surgical interventions, and preventative herd health management in the exact environment where your animals feel most secure. More importantly, arriving on-site allows us to perform “environmental diagnostics”—evaluating your pastures, feed rooms, and fencing to uncover the hidden toxicological or husbandry issues that traditional clinics miss.
Urgent Care & Triage
Rapid response for life-threatening emergencies including bloat, acute toxicosis, predatory trauma, heat stroke, and sudden, unexplained herd mortality events.
Advanced Field Diagnostics
Equipped with portable ultrasound, digital radiography, and point-of-care blood serology. We execute complex diagnostic testing, from CAE screening to Fecal Egg Counts (FEC), directly on your tailgate.
Surgical Interventions
Utilizing safe, Total Intravenous Anesthesia (TIVA) protocols for on-farm procedures including castrations, hernia repairs, laceration suturing, and emergency porcine C-sections.
Species Focus and Expertise
Our medical staff is highly trained in the distinct pathophysiological requirements of agricultural livestock and urban farm species. We do not treat dogs, cats, or exotics; we dedicate 100% of our clinical focus to herd and flock animals.
Swine (Miniature & Agricultural)
Comprehensive care for Potbellied pigs, Juliana pigs, KuneKunes, and commercial breeds. We specialize in safe pharmacological hoof/tusk trimming, farrowing dystocia management, obesity remediation, and vital core vaccination protocols (Erysipelas/Tetanus).
Small Ruminants (Goats & Sheep)
Advanced herd health for dairy and meat caprines/ovines. Our services include FAMACHA scoring for targeted parasite eradication, Contagious Foot Rot management, metabolic triage (pregnancy toxemia/bloat), and strict CAE eradication testing.
Urban Poultry & Fowl
Specialized avian diagnostics for backyard flocks. We provide respiratory disease containment (Mycoplasma/IBV), surgical crop impaction resolution, biosecurity evaluations for HPAI prevention, and safe ectoparasite (mite/lice) eradication protocols.
Large Agricultural Livestock
Field services for cattle, alpacas, and llamas including herd vaccinations, dystocia assistance, castration, laceration repair, and compassionate, on-farm humane euthanasia services for terminal cases.
