What reviewers say
Island Veterinary Service provides mobile veterinary care directly to homes on the Casco Bay islands. The practice handles a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, goats, and chickens, providing routine visits, ongoing care, and end-of-life services. Bringing the clinic directly to the patient reduces travel stress for animals and eliminates the need for carriers and ferry rides, creating a convenient and comfortable experience. The veterinary team is consistently described as kind, professional, empathetic, and exceptionally caring, though services carry a higher price tag than mainland clinics.
