5 Best Mobile Vets in Winnipeg That Swamped Local Pet Parents Rely On
My cousin works from home with three clients—and five gorgeous cats who look like they belong in a pet magazine.
When I asked how she keeps them all so healthy and happy despite her packed schedule, she smiled and said, “You can’t go wrong with mobile veterinary services.” Imagine top-tier pet care in the comfort of your home!
From then on, I’ve also used them, and I haven’t looked back since. For fellow busy pet parents, here are the top mobile vet services that’ll simplify your schedule.
How much do mobile veterinary services cost in Winnipeg?
Mobile veterinary services in Winnipeg cost $80 to $150 for a standard home visit, depending on the vet and the type of care your pet needs.
Additional services like vaccinations, diagnostics, or lab tests may come with separate fees. Some offer package deals or multi-pet discounts to add extra value.
1. Prairie Ly Mobile Veterinary Care
Address: 2855 Pembina Hwy #35
Phone: +1 431-813-3833
Business hours:
- Mon – Fri: 9 AM–4 PM
Prairie Ly Mobile Veterinary Care was founded in 2021 by Dr. Amber Ly, who knows how hard it is to go to the vet, especially if you have kids. Her goal is to offer a compassionate way to make veterinary visits less stressful for pets and their humans.
They offer wellness appointments, vaccinations, and non-emergency care. What’s cool is that they tailor every exam and recommendation to your pet’s specific needs, considering their breed, age, and lifestyle.
Speaking of which, they’re all Feat Free-certified—they use gentle, calming techniques designed to minimize stress during exams.
Compassionate in-home euthanasia and end-of-life care for dogs and cats are available, too. Their team helps families say farewell with dignity and comfort.
A downside is that, unlike other mobile clinics, they don’t offer emergency services.
She is very sweet, kind, and competent
“I am so grateful for the service Dr. Ly and her helpful assistant provide. My cat is very anxious and fearful by nature, and Dr Ly was able to successfully and thoroughly examine her in the comfort of her home. She is very sweet, kind, and competent. 10/10 recommend her. Thank you, Dr.” — Jen Anderson, Google Review
Even better than I thought it would be
“This was my first time using Prairie Ly vet, and it was even better than I thought it would be. I have 3 cats, and they were due for their annual vaccines. Dr Ly came to my house, and although the cats weren’t thrilled to be getting squeezed, weighed, and then vaccinated, the stress for them before and after was minimal, and that also includes my stress. Dr. Ly was wonderful to deal with and very personable. You can tell she really wants to make this the best experience for your animals. I will definitely be using Prairie Ly going forward ❤.” — Louise Suderman, Google Review
2. Animal Ark Veterinary Services
Address: 60 Marion St
Phone: +1 204-897-2247
Business hours:
- Mon – Fri: 9 AM–5 PM
Animal Ark Veterinary Services, led by Dr. Sawka, brings over 29 years of experience in clinical and emergency medicine. They mostly cater to busy owners, families with multiple pets, anyone anxious, or those with elderly animals.
During a home visit, you can expect comprehensive physical exams, lifestyle-based vaccinations, and lab testing. It also includes medication dispensing, nutritional counseling, microchipping, and minor injury care—all tailored to your pets’ needs.
As a bonus, every pet is handled with Fear-Free techniques, meaning gentle, low-stress methods that make the experience more positive.
Compassionate end-of-life support is also available, allowing families to say goodbye in the peace and comfort of home.
Unfortunately, we heard about late arrivals to house calls—something to keep in mind if you’re on a tight schedule.
More comfortable for our four-legged family members
“Dr. Sawka, and more recently her assistant Kate as well, have been caring for our animals for many years now. We are so grateful for the services offered through Animal Ark Vet Services. The in-home visits have made it more comfortable for all of our four-legged family members for everything from nail trims to check-ups to vaccinations and end-of-life care… Dr. Sawka and her team provide valuable and excellent animal care, and we greatly appreciate this. Highly recommend.” — Janine LeGal, Google Review
So convenient and comfortable for the dogs
“Dr. Sawka is fantastic! I have a very busy schedule and, at one point, had multiple dogs. She makes it so easy by coming to the house. Super friendly and knowledgeable. So convenient and comfortable for the dogs to be in their own home. I would recommend Dr. Sawka to everyone!” — Sarah Vadeboncoeur, Google Review
3. Sunset Veterinary Care
Address: PO Box 48102, Lakewood
Phone: +1 204-813-8908
Business hours:
- Mon, Wed – Thurs, Fri: 9 AM–3:30 PM
Sunset Veterinary Care was founded in 2020 by Dr. Elizabeth Andres after losing her beloved cat, Tiger, to cancer. Her purpose is to strengthen the bond between pets and their people through peaceful, respectful end-of-life care.
Her team provides a gentle in-home quality of life assessment, where they evaluate your pet’s comfort through a physical exam and a collaborative discussion. Virtual visits are also possible if needed.
When it’s time to say goodbye, they provide in-home euthanasia services. Every visit includes gentle sedation beforehand.
For aftercare, they partner with two trusted, family-run crematoriums: Peaceful Pasture Pet Cremation and Previous Pet Cremation.
Compared to other mobile vets, however, their services are quite limited. If you need in-home lab testing or vaccinations, you’ll want to hire someone else.
Made a very difficult situation so much easier
“Thank you, Sunset Veterinarian Care, for doing what you do. My family and I are so grateful we were able to say goodbye to our much-loved Bella at home, where she was comfortable and at ease. Dr Rita was very kind, gentle, and professional. She made a very difficult situation so much easier for Bella and my family.” — Mark H, Google Review
Gave Toby such a beautiful send-off at home
“I’m so grateful for the service Dr. Liz provided for my dog. It was a very calm and peaceful goodbye, which made the biggest difference in such a heartbreaking situation. I can’t thank Sunset Vet enough for their kindness and compassion. I am glad I was able to give Toby such a beautiful send-off at home, where he is most comfortable.”

4. Pawsitive Animal Hospital
Address: 1580 Taylor Ave, Unit 60
Phone: +1 204-219-6006
Business hours:
- Mon – Fri: 8 AM–8 PM
- Sat – Sun: 9 AM–6 PM
As pet lovers themselves, the team at Pawsitive Animal Hospital understands the deep bond you share with your furry family members. Their mission is to help your pet live their healthiest, happiest life.
They’re accredited by AAHA, which is pretty impressive because only about 10% to 15% of vet hospitals in the US and Canada are.
For pets (or owners) who hate being stressed by traditional clinic visits, their mobile vet services are a no-brainer. They’re perfect for anxious animals or multi-pet households.
They’re known for a wide range of wellness exams and vaccinations for kittens/puppies, adults, and seniors. This includes protection from rabies, distemper, and parvovirus, as well as essential flea, tick, and heartworm prevention.
Just make sure to double-check your appointments, since we heard about abrupt cancellations, which could be a huge hassle.
They were very respectful, calm, and moved slowly
“I called Pawsitive on Sunday Jan 12/25 after taking our 15yr old boy Jackson to the Pembina Emergency vet the night before. Jackson’s ureter had slammed shut and due to his advanced age, there was little that could be done. He was suffering and we made the terrible decision to send him to heaven at home. A vet and assistant from Pawsitive came to the house. They were very respectful, calm and moved slowly. The vet explained everything thoroughly, and answered me patiently when I asked if there was ANYTHING that could save Jackson 😰 This was the worst day of my life, but their kindness helped. 💔.” — Linda M, Google Review
You can tell they actually care about the animals
“We love Pawsitive! They helped us take the best care of our cat in his last 8 months of life. They are so gracious and helpful, you can tell they actually care about the animals and the people they help. Thanks to all of the amazing people at this clinic.” — Nikki Pachniosky, Google Review
5. Paw Prints Mobile
Address: Winnipeg
Phone: 204-333-0770
Business hours:
- Mon – Fri: 9 AM–5 PM
- Saturday: 10 AM–2 PM
Paw Prints Mobile is owned by Leanne, a registered Diagnostic Medical Sonographer with over 15 years of experience. She’s worked with a board-certified veterinary radiologist and cardiologist for several years.
What’s especially cool is that she’s not just limited to cats and dogs (unlike other mobile vets). She also provides services for exotic pets like rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets, hedgehogs, snakes, and lizards!
Her practice is known for high-quality mobile ultrasound services that assess vital organs like the bladder, kidney, liver, spleen, and pancreas—just to name a few. Each scan is sent to a vet specialist, with results delivered electronically.
They also provide mobile echocardiograms and diagnostic ECGs, which give a detailed look at your pet’s heart structure, function, and rhythm.
As you might have noticed already, they focus on specialist-level imaging only. They don’t provide vaccinations, general checkups, or end-of-life care.
Thank you for coming in last minute to do my ultrasounds!
