We would like to remind everyone that the wait can be rather long depending on how busy we are. Please be prepared for this and the weather.

Thank you all for making our program so successful and making your pets a number one priority! We LOVE what we do for our community!

Beloved local veterinarian Dr. Gail Lane and other friendly vets will be helping us reach the rural areas of our community for vaccinations and basic wellness care for pets.

The Critter Care Cruiser travels on a regular basis to several locations in Carter County. We provide annual vaccinations, testing for heartworm & feline leukemia/FIV. We offer monthly or single prescription flea, tick, & heartworm preventatives, and basic wellness checks including prescriptions for ear issues, skin problems, dental trouble, etc.

NO SURGERY on the Critter Care Cruiser. Our vet may refer you and your pet to one of our local partners for more in-depth treatment if your pet requires care outside the scope of what we are able to offer. For low cost spay neuter options, please see our program page.

PLEASE NOTE:  remember, we only have ONE vet!
