🎉🥳 Garvey Veterinary Services is celebrating our 1st birthday! 🥳🎉

A year ago we opened our mobile vet service up for registrations. Since then, we have seen a wonderful outpouring of support and encouragement for our little family practice!

Over this past year we have visited hundreds of cats and dogs, as well as hamsters, rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets and plenty of other tiny companions.

We would like to sincerely thank everyone who has entrusted us with your pet care, as well as those who have left lovely reviews or recommended us via word of mouth. Your support means the world to us, and we hope for many more years of being your Vet in a Van 🐾🛻

- Liz and Jack Garvey

Garvey Vet Services now accepting new clients! The vet service that comes to you 🐾🚚

No more hour-long missions to bundle grumpy and/or elderly companions in the car, sort childcare, or book a morning off work. Just give us a call and let us work around when you are home!
We operate in the Sutton Coldfield, Lichfield and Tamworth regions, but if you are outside these areas please contact us, as we may still be able to visit you.

At Garvey Veterinary Services, we bring expert, compassionate veterinary care directly to your doorstep. As a mobile “vet in a van” service, we believe that pets and their people deserve comfort, convenience, and a personal touch. By seeing animals in the familiar surroundings of their own home, we reduce stress for both pets and owners while delivering high-quality, tailored care. Whether it’s a routine check-up, ongoing treatment or end of life care - we’re here to support your pet’s health with professionalism, empathy, and a smile.

Thank you for your kind words Becky, your greyhound was a very sweet dog and we're glad we could provide some peace at the end for you all

I would just like to thank Jack for his care and compassion on a very difficult day saying goodbye to our beloved greyhound.
The fact it was at home ,Jack explained the process and was calm and understanding and our dog was calm and not stressed at all .
The sympathy cards were lovely and the children appreciate they have their own copy of her paw print to keep .
Also thanks to Liz for her patience with my endless questions

✨🐶 We will be collaborating with The Empawrium to provide a Titre Testing Day for dogs on Sunday 12th April!

💉WHAT IS TITRE TESTING?
A titre test measures the amount of antibodies in the blood, to help determine how protected your dog is against these core contagious diseases:
-Canine Distemper Virus (CDV)
-Canine Adenovirus (Hepatitis) (CAV)
-Canine Parvovirus (CPV)

If you’re worried about your elderly or immunocompromised dog, or you are not certain about the vaccine history of your pet, this may be for you!

If your dog is found to have poor immunity to one of these diseases, we would be happy to provide you a follow up appointment to vaccinate your dog, with a 10% discount.

The appointment will take place at The Empawrium on 37 Avery Rd on Sunday 12th April. Our vet Jack will take a blood sample, and within 1-3 weeks you will receive an official report back with a certificate detailing your results.

To book in, please follow the link below, and if you have any questions about the process, drop us an email at [email protected]

Our vet Jack and our resident bunny Eris visited the Aspire students at Priestley Smith School this week! Jack spoke to them about animal care and well-being, and enjoyed getting to introduce the students to Eris who was (mostly!) very well behaved.

Priestley Smith provides an exceptional education for children with vision impairments, and if you would like to support the school, please donate at the following link:
