Supporting the programs of the Animal Rescue League of Boston
Located in the historic South End neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts, Boston Veterinary Care (BVC) is a clinic with a mission– all profits benefit the shelter pets of the Animal Rescue League of Boston (ARL).
BVC aspires to integrate the health of animals into the community consciousness for both the benefit of animals and people, and to serve ARL’s mission of keeping animals safe and healthy out of shelters and in the habitats and homes where they belong.
Boston Veterinary Care provides a full range of high-quality outpatient services to pet owners in the Greater Boston Area:
Wellness exams
& vaccinations
Surgery
Dental care
Receive Pet Care from Home
In order to provide our clients with critical veterinary care in the convenience of their own home, BVC is now offering telemedicine appointments right on your cell phone whenever your pet is sick or injured.
To get started, call our front desk at (617) 226-5605 to see if your appointment can be scheduled via telemedicine. Once your appointment is confirmed, download the TeleVet – Remote Pet Care app from the iTunes or Google Play store and create your account with your pet’s personal profile and payment information. At the conclusion of your telemedicine appointment, if our veterinarian determines that your pet needs to come into BVC for a physical exam, the telemedicine appointment fees will be applied as a credit to that visit.
*Only available for current Boston Veterinary Care clients and patients.
