Inside The Ark, the Genesis Mobile Vet exam room

What makes us different

Not a house call. A practice on wheels.

Most vets who come to your home arrive with a bag. They can examine your pet, give vaccines and draw blood, and for anything past that they send you back to a clinic. That is a real service. It is not what we built.

Genesis runs out of The Ark, a purpose-built mobile unit with a climate-controlled exam space, a surgical suite, anesthesia and monitoring equipment, and digital X-ray on board. Spays, neuters, mass removals and full dental procedures happen in your driveway, and your pet recovers on their own floor instead of in a kennel.

Most mobile vets in this market are not equipped for surgery, dentals or imaging. We are. That is the difference worth knowing before you pick one.

The visit

What actually happens when we pull up

You get an arrival window instead of a waiting room, and a text when we are on the way.

The exam happens wherever your pet is calmest — the living room floor, the couch, the back porch. Cats in particular do markedly better when they never see a carrier.

Vaccines, blood draws, urine samples, X-rays, ear and skin cytology and most treatments are done on site. Bloodwork is collected at your home and sent to the lab, with results back to you by call or text, usually within a day or two.

If something needs a procedure, that happens at your house as well, in the mobile surgical suite, rather than at a clinic across town.

Where to start

Everything we do, at your address

Every service below happens at your home. Follow any card for what it involves, what it costs, and how to tell when your pet is due.

Wellness Visits

Annual exams, vaccines, heartworm and fecal testing, and the yearly bloodwork that catches problems while they are still small and still cheap to fix.

Wellness care →

Sick Visits

Vomiting, limping, itching, not eating, something just off. Diagnosis and treatment on site, plus an honest read on when an ER is the better call.

Sick visits →

Surgery

Spays, neuters, mass removals and soft-tissue procedures in a fully equipped mobile surgical suite. Pre-op bloodwork, anesthesia monitoring, and recovery at home on your own floor.

Mobile surgery →

Dental

Anesthetized cleanings with full-mouth X-rays, probing and charting, and extractions when a tooth cannot be saved. The part that matters is below the gumline.

Dental care →

End-of-Life Care

An unhurried goodbye at home, on your family's terms, with quality-of-life conversations well before that day if you want them.

End-of-life care →

Where We Go

East Nashville, Green Hills, Belle Meade, Brentwood and Franklin, on set days each week. Check whether your neighborhood is on the route.

Straight answers

What we carry, and what we don't

On board: digital X-ray, dental radiography, anesthesia with continuous monitoring, a surgical suite, sample collection for bloodwork and urinalysis, ear and skin cytology, and commonly needed medications.

Not on board: an in-house lab analyzer, so bloodwork goes to a reference lab and results take a day or two rather than fifteen minutes. Ultrasound, CT and MRI, overnight hospitalization, and true emergency and critical care all need a building we do not carry.

If your pet needs one of those, we will say so plainly and point you to the right specialist or emergency hospital. Being straight about where a mobile practice stops is what makes the rest of it worth trusting.

Pricing

What a visit costs

A home visit is $184. That covers the travel, the exam and the veterinarian's time at your address, anywhere in the service area — there is no distance surcharge. Each additional pet seen at the same visit is $85.

Vaccines, testing, medications and procedures are quoted on top of that, and you get the number before anything happens. Membership plans start at $69 a month and bundle the annual exam, core vaccines and yearly testing. See full pricing.
