Emergency & Urgent Mobile Veterinary Care in Tyler, TX

When your pet is suddenly sick, injured, or in pain, every moment matters. At True Friends Veterinary Services, we provide same-day and urgent care visits in the comfort of your home — reducing stress for both you and your pet during a critical time. Dr. Lindsey Hone brings calm, experienced care directly to your door when you need it most.

Same-Day Vet Visits You Can Count On

Accidents, sudden illness, or frightening changes in behavior can happen without warning. Our urgent mobile veterinary care ensures that your pet receives fast, compassionate treatment — without the wait, transport, or fear that often comes with an emergency clinic.



We offer same-day appointments 7 days a week based on availability. When your pet needs help now, we’ll do everything possible to respond quickly and with care.

The Comfort of Home, Even in Crisis

During emergencies, your pet may already feel scared or disoriented. Transporting them in a car or waiting in a clinic can escalate stress and discomfort. Our mobile services allow them to remain calm and comfortable at home, where they feel safe — and where we can begin treatment without delay.

Peaceful End-of-Life Decisions, When Time Is Short

In heartbreaking moments where a pet is suffering and there’s no recovery, we offer gentle in-home euthanasia — even on short notice. We understand the urgency and emotional weight of these decisions, and Dr. Hone approaches each call with compassion and grace.

  • Dogs

  • Cats
