A healthy diet can help your pet live a long, healthy life. During an in-home Wellness Exam, our veterinarians can provide nutritional guidance and create a plan to help your pet maintain an optimal weight.

Your BetterVet team is your expert source for questions and concerns about the best foods for your pet, how much to feed them, and their optimal weight.
We will gather information about your pet’s age, appetite, weight, and lifestyle. Based on this information, we'll make recommendations for your pet's nutritional needs.
Our veterinary teams provide Nutritional Consulting during an in-home Wellness Exam so your pet can stay in the relaxed environment of home.
All of our veterinarians have completed a comprehensive curriculum that includes pet nutrition and its impact on long-term health.
Nutrition counseling is an important component of our in-home Pet Wellness Exams. We allow 30-45 minutes for this appointment type to allow time for all your questions and concerns.
In addition to a thorough head-to-tail physical exam, your veterinarian will ask questions about your pet’s history, food preferences, and diet.
During the in-home visit, your veterinarian can make personalized recommendations for your pet, which may include the best foods and supplements to give your pet and how much to feed them.
Before the end of your pet’s Wellness Exam, your veterinary team will provide guidance on follow-up appointments, nutritional recommendations, and any necessary referrals.
Bettervet helped our family with informative pointers in regards to our 5 year old Lab Rosie. Doctor Scott Perry had a lot of insight to what is best for nutrition and weight management, which orthopedic procedure would be the best fit, and also advice on lifestyle changes. Our dog suffers from bilateral hip dysplasia and moderate CCL disruption. It has been a pleasure to have this company available to our resource. Thank you!
