The Visiting Vet

The Visiting Vet Dr Steph Royston is a house call vet for dog and cat veterinary medicine. Compassionate, gentle care

Dr. Royston is a veterinary house call practitioner who enjoys building a strong rapport with her clients. Through communication and education, works with pet owners in a holistic approach that includes preventive medicine. In the context of a house call, Dr. Royston can better appreciate your pet's environment, diet and family dynamics. Many pets, especially cats, are much more relaxed in their h

ome environment. This benefits not only the animals and their owners, but also the veterinarian as she assesses your pet's health. Serving the North Okanagan Shuswap area including Vernon, Coldstream, Lumby, Armstrong, Enderby, Falkland and Salmon Arm. House calls are possible for areas outside those listed but please be aware that travel costs will be greater.

It is with great sadness and lots of tears that I report I lost my adorable, loving and so frickin cute cat Runty yesterday. She was diagnosed with a congenital heart issue in 2024 and had been doing well but things turned very suddenly for the worst. Thank you so much to Dr Janine at Larch Vet for your help, it was very appreciated. Runty is back with her sister Arrow who passed 3 years ago. RIP Oct 31 2013-Feb 7 2026.

**I will be closed December 20-January 4**

I wasn’t able to post earlier about the sad loss of Jane Goodall so I thought it would be a good time to remember as we wind down 2025. I was fortunate enough to see and hear her speak in 2023 and she was so inspiring and hopeful. I think we all need some hope and inspiration to treat everyone, including animals and ourselves with kindness and compassion and to try to be the change we want to see even if it’s small change, it all makes a positive difference. I wish you and your furry family a happy holiday season

It’s hard to believe it’s been 10 years since I bought The Visiting Vet, it seems like yesterday but also forever. Thank you to all the people that have helped me along the way, there are too many to list but please know I appreciate you and all of my amazing clients and patients. In honour of this milestone I have made a donation to Pro Carnivoros to help support the Maned Wolf- the tallest, very unique canine species that is threatened with extinction in South America
