Meet Dr. Lindsey Hone

A True Friend to Pets and Their People

At the heart of True Friends Veterinary Services is Dr. Lindsey Hone — a mobile veterinarian devoted to providing high-quality, compassionate care directly to families across Tyler, TX and surrounding communities. Her mission is simple: make veterinary care more personal, more peaceful, and more accessible.

A Mission Rooted in Compassion and Care

After years of practicing in traditional clinics, Dr. Hone saw firsthand how stressful those environments can be for animals — especially senior pets, large breeds, and those nearing the end of life. She founded True Friends Veterinary Services to flip that experience on its head.



By eliminating the waiting room and providing in-home care, she helps pets receive medical attention where they’re most comfortable — surrounded by the people they love. It’s not just veterinary care. It’s comfort, dignity, and trust.

Mobile Care for All Stages of Life

Dr. Hone treats animals not as cases, but as cherished companions. Her mobile practice allows her to offer a wide range of services including:


  • In-home euthanasia and palliative care

  • Urgent and same-day appointments

  • Preventative wellness and vaccinations

  • Diagnostics, lab testing, and pain management

  • Telemedicine consults for remote support

Whether your dog needs annual vaccines, your horse requires a check-up, or your rabbit needs urgent attention, Dr. Hone brings veterinary expertise and empathy right to your front door.

Serving More Than Cats and Dogs

True Friends Veterinary Services is unique in its species-inclusive approach. Dr. Hone offers care for:


  • Dogs
  • Cats
  • Rabbits
  • Chickens
  • Goats
  • Horses
  • Pigs

From farm animals to family pets, every animal is treated with gentle professionalism and medical precision.

Commitment to Accessibility

A Veterinarian Who Truly Cares

At True Friends Veterinary Services, the focus isn’t just on treatment — it’s on trust. That means showing up on time, listening deeply, and doing what’s best for the animal.

Black quotation marks.

"I had to let go of my best friend,  Kissmas and chose at home euthanasia with Dr. Hone. She was an absolute angel with my baby. It made the process far easier on me and Dr. Hone's compassion was on point. My dog peacefully fell asleep in her own bed at home. Afterwards,  Dr. Hone gave myself and my other pets time to say our goodbyes before. Dr. Hone is the absolute best and when it's time to say goodbye to my other pets she will be who I call. I highly recommend her."

Dr. Hone wis absolutely one of the most caring people who have cared for my princesses. She comes to my front door. Both Daisy and BennyJane are safe because she is able to treat them in their own home. As I am visually impaired and cannot drive, we are blessed to know that she is mobile.
