PriVET Pet Care

What PriVET Pet Care does

PriVET Pet Care (legal entity: 911 Vets) is a private mobile veterinary practice founded in 2005 and rebranded under its current name in 2021. Headquartered at 12613 1/2 Venice Blvd., Los Angeles, the company operates as the only multi-van mobile veterinary hospital in California, serving pet owners across the greater Los Angeles and Orange County areas. Its core offering is fee-for-service, in-home veterinary care delivered via equipped mobile units: routine house calls, emergency services with stated response times of 2-40 minutes, diagnostic imaging and ultrasound, in-home diagnostics, dental and medical procedures under sedation, hospice and euthanasia services, sedation and pet transport, pharmacy fulfillment of prescription medications and foods, and international pet export coordination.

The underlying technology platform is the multi-van mobile hospital fleet, staffed by licensed veterinarians (including Dr. Davis, a UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine graduate), veterinary technicians (e.g., Christian Gonzalez), and a dispatch and operations team led by COO Jamie (CVPM-certified). The vans are equipped for in-home procedures, imaging, and sedation-based transport to partner hospitals for the roughly 10% of cases requiring surgery, dentistry, or radiographs that cannot be performed in the home. Service coverage is structured around geographic dispatch from multiple LA/Orange County locations, supported by a direct-to-consumer go-to-market via website, phone, SMS, and a Google reviews-driven referral channel.

The business model is professional services revenue plus pharmacy sales, billed primarily on a pay-as-you-go basis with optional CareCredit financing. Customer segments are pet owners differentiated by use case: routine wellness, emergency/specialized handling, and international relocation. The founder, Dr. Steve Weinberg (veterinarian since 1985), passed away in January 2022; the company continues under the professional team he developed, with no disclosed outside equity or institutional capital.
