Dr. Hawkins and her assistant were great! Our dog got his teeth cleaned professionally, safely and quickly at a reasonable price. I have been recommending Dr. Hawkins to all of my friends. They are very professional, friendly and super convenient. Our little guy Charlie has been acting like nothing happened after the grogginess wore off and his teeth look great. Don't hesitate to call them for your veterinary needs! read more

You can trust Dr Hawkins and her staff. Especially when you are nervous and worried about your pet's health. Call and leave a message. She will call you back. read more

I will never know what I did to deserve having this amazing veterinarian Dr. Jocelyn Hawkins as my medical caregiver for my animals. It's crazy how I'll see her 8 times in one year and then not again for two years. And no matter when I call her, she always makes time for me. Her methods are flawless. Her knowledge is impeccable, and her skill level and cool headed nature is something that you would have to witness to be able to appreciate. Today I saw her for one of my feral cats Clementine, who was presenting with a UTI. I gave Clemmie a little gabapentin to chill her out. Once she hit the cold air, it was game on. When I got her inside the mobile med/van there was no fuss. They decided to give her a little sedative, but before the shot went in, she shot out like a rocket, and while that cat ran around the mobile climbing the walls Dr. Hawkins just started talking and visiting with me. We just ignored the cat ... and she stopped, and they picked her up and she was handled with such grace and love and care. It reminds me why I love this Vet so much. I know she's not taking new clients because she's maxed out. I don't know how she would receive anything less than five stars... you obviously don't understand or appreciate the gift of this doctors expertise. And she comes to your house with a medical van prepped for any kind of surgery!!' I just wanted to post this to let the universe know I am still thanking you for gifting to me...my amazing veterinarian.... Dr Jocelyn Hawkins read more

Harborside Mobile Veterinary Clinic - Veterinarians Near Me

See all

I am a little upset about the fact that they're NOT taking new clients. I can't get my cat into the carrier anymore because she doesn't like it. I wanted Harborside to start being my veterinarian for my cat. Now that my cat maybe dying I can't get a mobile veterinarian that's close enough to take care of her. Thanks for nothing. read more

Dr. Hawkins and Shelby (vet tech) fixed our dog Benny this past weekend. They are an awesome team! If you have never tried a mobile vet, this is something you absolutely have to do. Not only is it convenient, but Dr. Hawkins herself is a true professional. She explains treatment options and is compassionate with good bedside manner. Her candor is rare among vets that I have experienced in the past. Some past vets my family and I have had experience with have made us feel like we have gone to the used car lot and not the veterinary clinic. Not so with Harborside Mobile Vet Clinic...you will leave your appointment feeling like your pet is in the best of care. Definitely try Harborside, you will not be disappointed. read more

I dislike sitting in waiting rooms. My cat dislikes riding in cars. When I found a vet that does house calls, this seemed like a no - brainer. When Dr. Hawkins and Lee showed up at my house, I grabbed my shoes, my cat and checked out the "Vetmobile" (this is probably some sort of patent or copyright infringement but I can't resist using this very apt moniker.) I was amazed by what awaited inside: a fully stocked mobile veterinary clinic with super knowledgeable and helpful (for both humans and their familiars) staff. At the end of the visit, my trusty feline sidekick and I felt much better about the whole veterinary experience. I have and will continue to recommend this service to anyone with a pet who lends me their ear. read more

Dr. Hawkins is a saint. Do yourself a favor and call her . She rolls up in her huge on site vet mobile like batman does in the batmobile. Here to save the day. She was at my house just by chance as I was on my way back (for the last time) from an animal hospital on Falls road that I wont give the luxury of mentioning in this write up , with my sick cat and I saw her pull up. I asked them for help and they helped even though I didn't have an appointment. It is people like her and Lee (her right hand man) who make this world a better place. Thank you so much ! Have them come take care of your pets!!! WoohoooO!!!! read more

Dr. Hawkins is such a blessing to my kitties! Not only is it such a convenience not having to cart them back and forth to a brick and mortar vet, but I don't think I could ever find one as knowledgeable, friendly or helpful in answering questions as Dr. Hawkins. I've been using her for years and trust her completely with all my pets needs. She is the best!!! read more

Dr. Hawkins is amazing. She and her staff are compassionate, knowledgeable, and funny; dedicating almost two full hours to my elderly cat's annual check-up/tune-up. The prices for health services are virtually identical to going to a "brick-and-mortar" vet clinic...and the fee charged for mileage is so worth it, as I don't have to fight my crazy cat into the carrier, it avoids the inevitable puke-pee-poo fest, the ensuing hissing, or fight to get him out of the carrier. Before, it was all very stressful...for me and my cat. So stressful, in fact, that he would have to be sedated and stay overnight at the 'regular' vet just to get examined...all of which cost more than the $40-some dollars, Harborside charges for coming to your house. Their hours are flexible, so the entire experience is extremely convenient. I am so happy and relieved that I found Dr. Hawkins and Harborside. read more

No more animal carriers for me! Such a wonderful experience. Dr. Joceyln Hawkins and her assistant Lee came to our home to vaccinate and check our 2cats. Mild mannered , knowledgeable and easy going professionals made this visit a snap. My crazy cat even purred during her vaccinations! You absolutely MUST try this. Their vet-mobile is fully stocked so everything can be done on site. ( or inside of your home). No stress for anyone. The cost was LESS than bringing our animals out to a vet. Cannot say enough positive things! Try it....you'll like it! read more

Dr Hawkins and Lee are truly amazing people. We recently had them come over to our house because our 16 1/2 year old cat was sick and we could not take her to our regular vet. Our regular vet recommended Dr. Hawkins. Dr. Hawkins was able to see her immediately unfortunately her heart condition was too severe and we were not able to save her. It was the first time we had met Lee and Dr. Hawkins but after spending only 3 days with them we felt like we knew them forever. Their compassion and dedication to their job is amazing. When it was time to say goodbye to our Mitzi Dr. Hawkins made us feel at ease and we knew we were making the right decision. It was so calm and peaceful. The truck is amazing we were able to have X-rays done and she even had Andi come to the house with a portable ultra sound. Dr. Hawkins' prices were comparable to any vet you would go to in the area. Wish we met them under better circumstances. Thank you Dr Hawkins and Lee for giving us 3 extra days with Mitzi we can't thank you enough. If you need a new vet or just can't take your pet in a car call Dr. Hawkins she is truly amazing. read more

Our dog, Beau, had stomach problems for a month. We went to three clinics, no one knew what it was. That was until we saw Harborside. Dr. Hawkins quickly realized that his breed is prone to pancreatitis. So now we know how to treat him if he flares! She also did dental cleaning and he had two rotted teeth. She is very knowledgeable and friendly. She's usually on the road so it can be hard to get ahold of, but my husband never has a problem. She calls back quickly once she knows your pet. It's great not having to go to a clinic since Beau gets car sick. Thank you for taking such good care of our boy. read more

I never got an appointment. My dog was shaking her brains out and they only scheduled new patients a month later. I couldn't wait that long. read more

My cat was having minor yet chronic issues that had become extremely frustrating for her and for me. My own vet wasn't doing anything to help--in a moment of desperation I thought to call Harborside. They were in the neighborhood, came right by, and helped my cat to feel better. They were extremely professional and kind. I think the cost is competitive with other vets and even somewhat more reasonable. I think Dr. Hawkins will be my new vet from now on. read more

Dr. Hawkins is truly awesome. We just had our first check-up and vaccinations for our 3 cats and it was such a low stress, great experience. Much better than crating them and hauling to an office. Dr. Hawkins and her vet tech Lee are very friendly, professional, great at explaining what they are doing and answering questions. For 3 cats, vet visits can get pricey but we spent significantly less this time and I didn't feel like I was getting charged for unnecessary tests. I am so happy I took the recommendation of a neighbor and tried them out. Definitely our go to vet now! read more

Dr. Hawkins and her assistant Lee are great. My dog had a major issue that caused me to call Dr. Hawkins, who had seen him prior for check ups. Dr. Hawkins told me exactly what to do,and asked that I keep her informed. When it turned out my dog needed emergency surgery, she cleared it with her other appointments and made room for him to be taken care of immediately. He made a full recovery and is doing great. Can't thank them enough. read more

Called them last minute and they came same day to care for my Dog Doug. The vet is first class and very professional and they come to your house what more could you ask for. My Dog Doug had a back injury and she figured out what the problem was fast got him on medication and now he is all better. She also took the time to TXT me to give me a better idea of when she would get to my house. We liked her so much she is going to be Doug regular vet thank you agian for the great service and thanks for getting Doug back to normal read more

Oh my goodness this is the most wonderful way to vet your pets. Dr Hawkins and Lee are so very nice . I am well pleased not to have to drag terrified cats to the vet in a car. What a fabulous service.....wish I had done this a long time ago. Thanks so much Dr Hawkins and Lee. See you next year but I won't hesitate to call if someone needs a visit before then. Barbara Schofield read more

We had her for a vet for eight years & when it came to our dog get ready pass away she didn't return our phone fast & when she did she said she had no room to put our dog in her truck after she would be put to sleep,very hurt by her actions & rude behavior in our time of sorry,we had to find someone else,I guess dedication means nothing to her it's all about money,very disappointed, please ster clear of this vet you will hurt in the end,last time I checked dogs were family and my dog suffered a week due to her not returning our phone call & then to say she wouldn't help or remove our dog,definitely find a new mobile vet!!! read more

This is one heck of a team. Our 11 year old Jackahuahua has SERIOUS issues at even the most routine exam. We dread Vet visits. Not fun for us, and not fun for the dog. Foaming at the mouth, projectile #2s...you get the picture. Harborside rolled up in their 26 foot love wagon and went to work. They established rapport with our dog and veiled the bitter nature of their business with a few bellyrubs. As soon as the dog smelled the needles, drama looked like it was about to escalate to a vet visit pitch. No worries. The team worked fast and actually asked me about her tendencies instead of not listening to me and letting the dog shoot more...um...protest about the exam area, like previous vets. They sedated her, gave a thorough exam, and a few hours later, the dog was hustlin' for yogurt like nothing ever happened. Can't say enough about these guys. They listen to the pet owners. They made this pet owner feel like his Jackahuahua was in good hands the whole time. Most importantly, they manifest that sense of caring for animals that is nice to see in a good Veterinary team. Our Jackhuahua gave them a test, but they really responded. read more

I just had my first visit with Harborside and can't even tell you how wonderful of an experience it was. They were so professional and caring (and affordable!) and handled my very difficult cat, Ben, amazingly. They were so great, I really might use them as my regular vet for Ben's better-behaved siblings, as well! read more

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Hawkins. Yes, she is a very skilled doctor and it's nice not to have to transport my cats in the car to someplace foreign to them, but she is so much more than a veterinarian who makes house calls. When my 20-year-old cat Michael was suffering from arthritis, she recommended treatment that no other vet had suggested. When he had an abscessed tooth that needed to come out, I was very concerned that, given his age and heart problem, he wouldn't even survive the anesthesia. But Dr. Hawkins helped ease my anxiety and I watched while she worked quickly and professionally to take care of him, and when she woke him up I was so relieved. And though it was late in the day, she wouldn't leave until she was certain that Michael was out of danger. Several months later, when old age and his health issues finally caught up with him and I knew it was time to let go, Dr. Hawkins was so compassionate and went out of her way to help during what she knew was a difficult time for me. She came to my house late on a Saturday afternoon and took as much time as I needed. I couldn't have asked for a better end of life for my old friend, who died peacefully in my arms in his own home. Dr. Hawkins even personally delivered his ashes to me and had washed the blanket in which we had wrapped him. Little details like that mean a lot to me. I have since adopted a pair of cats from Pet Rescue of Maryland, and Dr. Hawkins is their doctor, too. Again, I cannot say enough about her or recommend her enough. I would rate her 10 stars if I could. Thank you, Joceyln, for all you have done for my cats and me. read more

Left review also on website- made appointment with Amanda on 3/7/18 for 4/10/18, took the day off from work, crated both cats, and vet never showed up. Left 2 messages, no return phone call to this day with any kind of explanation as to what happened. It's difficult to believe this has not happened to any of their other customers. Goes to show shining reviews online are not necessarily accurate at all about a service. Unprofessional, incredibly rude, really really bad. If it was possible to leave negative stars I would rate a negative number. read more

The first visit they were great and I was pleased with the care they showed my 5 cats, BUT the second visit never happened, despite my calling for an appointment and speaking with Amanda, I was promised a call back to schedule a visit and was ignored and not contacted. This was very unprofessional and I have moved on to another vet and am happier with the change. I will not return to Harborside because they lack customer service at least this time around. Good bye read more

I recently relocated from the DC area to Baltimore with my cat who is 16 years and seven months. She managed to get through the move, but I was eager to have a baseline visit with a vet. And I was also used to receiving care from an excellent home-visit vet in Silver Spring! When Dr. Hawkins and her assistant Lee arrived exactly on time, I was happy. And then when I watched these health care pros in action, I became ecstatic because their care was superb. Dr. Hawkins brought a keen, fresh eye to my cat's old-age problems, and she made specific suggestions that should really improve my kitty's quality of life. Her mobile clinic is spotless and has the latest technology, and I couldn't be a more satisfied client. I look forward to many future interactions, and am grateful to find such a caring and skilled visiting vet in my new city. read more

The most compassionate and wonderful vet and vet tech you will ever met. Has been wonderful in helping with our multiple cats that don't have to ride in the crate to the vet's officefror checkups and shots.. Our beloved Fred was dying of cancer and Dr. Hawkins and Lee made his passage a peaceful experience at home. Cannot recommend more highly read more

Dr Hawkins is the absolutely best vet I have ever had the very fortunate experience taking care of my cats. She is professional, knowledgable with a very kind soul and heart when taking care of the cats as well as taking care of their over protective and highly emotional owners. She not only does a fabulous job taking care of the animals but also the owners of those animals. She saved our cat from death and nursed him back to health. Her mobile unit is spotless and a great asset when not having to take the cats to the vet she comes to us. I would highly recommend her and her team of professionals that work with her. read more

I decided to try this veterinarian based upon positive reviews on Yelp. No one answered the phone and I left a voicemail. The voicemail said my call would be returned within 24 hours and if I did not hear back within 24 hours it was because my voice was not clear (probably shouldn't put that in your voicemail message). Not sure how this is a good way to run a business if your customer has to wait to schedule an appointment. I received a voicemail from Whitney at Harborside the following morning at 11 am and immediately called back the number provided. A gentleman answered the phone and was confused on why I was calling. After I explained why I was calling he said he didn't have the schedule book and would have to call me back to schedule the appointment. I told him my cat was sick and he said appointments are scheduled 2 to 3 weeks in advance but they will try to work something out. I never heard back from anyone. Luckily I was able to schedule an appointment with another veterinarian company in town and got an appointment the same day. I would not recommend Harborside due to their poor customer service and for anyone who needs to get a quick appointment. read more
