Quality of Life Telehealth Consultations for Dogs and Cats in New Jersey
We are so sorry that you are having to question your pet’s quality of life. We hope you find the information outlined on this page helpful, and if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to email us at info@holisticalvets.com.
If you feel the time to say goodbye to your pet is near, please visit our in-home pet euthanasia appointment scheduling page.
A Quality of Life consultation with HolisticalVets can help provide some insight when facing challenging decisions about your pet’s well-being, especially in the face of chronic illness, age-related conditions, a decline in their happiness and overall health, and more.
By taking the time to listen to your goals and concerns regarding your pet, HolisticalVets can help you navigate complex choices regarding general treatment options, potential interventions, or end-of-life decisions with clarity and compassion, as our focus is on providing you with the information you need to make the right decision for you and your pet.
While HolisticalVets cannot prescribe medications or make changes to your pet’s existing medications (if applicable) or make diagnoses regarding your pet since he or she was not examined in person by HolisticalVets, a virtual vet visit via our Quality of Life telehealth consultation offers a platform for:
- Evaluating your pet’s condition and addressing your concerns
- Engaging in conversation about your pet’s health issues, addressing inquiries related to their well-being, including potential pain, discomfort, and their overall quality of life
- Discussing treatment goals and pain management strategies for your pet
- Providing information on how to prepare for euthanasia when the time comes
The results can then help you understand your pet’s needs and determine the next best step for him or her, since you’ll gain insight and understanding regarding signs of pain your pet may be exhibiting, whether and how your pet can benefit from additional comfort and support, what to expect during the euthanasia process when the time comes, and more. If it is determined that your pet’s journey is nearing its end, if you opt, HolisticalVets would be honored to spend time with your beloved pet and assist him or her over the Rainbow Bridge when it’s time with our in-home euthanasia services.

Code of Conduct
We follow the Golden Rule (“Treat others how you would like to be treated”) and apply that rule to our interactions with both people and animals. Due to this, we greatly appreciate being treated the same in return.

calling, harassment, aggression, demanding or entitled behavior, disparagement, violence, exploitation, unreasonable or excessive demands, and physical, emotional, or verbal abuse, etc. Should any of those characteristics be displayed, we will immediately end the telehealth consultation and not provide further services but will apply the charge for the consultation on the credit card provided.
Quality of Life Telehealth Consulations FAQs
Can HolisticalVets’ veterinarian diagnose my pet and/or prescribe new medications for my pet or make changes to the medications my pet is currently taking?
HolisticalVets is committed to ensuring that your pet’s well-being is not compromised due to a lack of information. As telehealth consultations do not allow for in-person exams or diagnostics, potentially vital findings and information may go undiscovered. Therefore, any diagnoses and/or, if necessary, medication adjustments should be made by a veterinarian who has personally examined your pet.
If I have questions after my telehealth consultation concludes, can I email them to you?
$60 per consultation/email
1 consultation = 1 email (3 questions OR 30 minutes or less of research and email response time)
Additional questions/time will be charged at a rate of $20 per additional question or $20 for each additional 10 minutes of research and email response time) Product Consultation Rates:
$75 per item
(for questions about diets not formulated by HolisticalVets and non-prescription supplements and medications)
What is the rescheduling and/or cancellation policy for your Quality of Life telehealth consultations?
Please understand that we reserve the right to discontinue/refuse service and/or cancel appointments at our discretion and at any time. If such a situation arises, we will promptly notify you through the email address you provided (or verbally if the telehealth consultation is already in session). This policy particularly applies when we feel that the standard of care for your pet cannot be met through telehealth. In those circumstances, we are unable to offer our Quality of Life telehealth consultation (your credit card will not be charged in this situation). Additionally, this policy extends to appointments that consist of behavior that go against our Code of Conduct.
If you need to reschedule or cancel a scheduled telehealth appointment, please send an email to info@holisticalvets.com. Please note that cancellations or rescheduling requests made less than 24 hours before the scheduled appointment time will incur a $50 charge, which will be applied to the provided credit card. In cases of rescheduling, it’s important to be aware that this charge is separate from the appointment fee.
If looking to reschedule your telehealth appointment, please check our scheduler below for available days and times. In your email, please specify which available appointment slot you would like to reschedule your appointment to and once we receive your request, we’ll be sure to let you know (via email) if we can reschedule the appointment to your requested day/time. If we are able to accommodate your request, you will also receive a confirmation email detailing the new day/time.
