Toronto AMS Aims to Assist Pet Owners with Transport to Vet Appointments During Covid

Toronto Animal Mobility Services (Toronto AMS) is a professional, veterinary-trained pet transport service that helps pet owners across the Greater Toronto Area by improving the quality and accessibility of veterinary care to their pets. Services are available Mondays to Fridays, from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., and they are equipped to handle pets from moderate to serious clinical needs.

Covid-19 has changed the way veterinarians engage with pet owners. For most veterinary clinics, pet owners are required to wait in their vehicles outside the hospital and are informed on the status of their pet by phone. Wait times can be very uncertain, as demands have increased on many veterinary service providers. This is exacerbated by the approach of winter and adverse weather conditions.

To mitigate these stresses associated with veterinary access, pet owners can simply book a return trip with Toronto AMS and let them shuttle their pet to and from their appointment. Toronto AMS will let owners know when the pet has safely reached their veterinarian and be there when they are ready to come back home.

Toronto AMS can also help if someone in the household has tested positive for Covid-19 and is under quarantine. Its team of specialized Registered Veterinary Technicians and Animal Care Attendants are prepared to offer contactless curbside and apartment hallway pick up of pets in accordance with safety and social distancing protocols.

These include:

• Personal Protective Equipment on board
• Sanitizing equipment on board
• Minimum 2 meters between all staff and clients
• Virtual service requests
• Contactless payment
• Contactless virtual waiver
• Contactless pickup and drop off
• Pets transported only- no owners on board
• Single pet transports
• Sanitizing vehicle space and onboard equipment on drop off and pick up
