Meet the Team

Amanda Gilmour, DVM

Veterinarian, Owner

 

Dr. Amanda Gilmour graduated with honors from the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine in 2014. During veterinary school, she also earned a certificate in shelter medicine under the mentorship of renowned shelter veterinarian and researcher Dr. Cynda Crawford. This specialized training gave Dr. Amanda valuable insight into animal shelter and rescue systems and allows her to better understand and address the unique medical and behavioral needs that adopted pets sometimes face.

Committed to providing the best possible care, Dr. Amanda completes an average of 15 hours of continuing education each year to stay current with the latest advancements in veterinary medicine and techniques.

After several years working as an associate veterinarian, Dr. Amanda decided to pursue her vision of a more personalized approach to veterinary care. In the fall of 2017, she founded Elite Veterinary Home Care, a mobile veterinary practice designed to deliver high-quality medical care in the comfort of a pet’s home while giving clients and patients the individualized attention they deserve.

Over the course of her career, Dr. Amanda has developed special interests in dermatology, behavior, and internal medicine. She also places a strong emphasis on clear communication, ensuring that pet owners feel informed, supported, and confident as they make decisions about their pets’ health.

When she’s not caring for patients, Dr. Amanda’s love of animals extends to her own unique crew at home—including a one-eyed tortoise and a three-legged dog. She has even performed surgery on fish; her dedication to animal care truly spans across species.

Services

Examinations, vaccines, and treatments are always done in front of the pet owner, if they wish to be present. Being present with your pet from the beginning to the end of the visit gives you and your veterinarian the opportunity to discuss any questions that you may have about your pet’s health. It also gives the veterinarian the opportunity to discuss any abnormal findings with you.

Please send us an email at info@elitevethomecare.com to receive an estimate for any of the following services. You will be pleased to find that our prices are extremely competitive with traditional brick-and-mortar hospitals!

 

Elite Veterinary Home Care Proudly Offers the Following Services

  • Comprehensive Physical Examinations
    • Every routine annual appointment includes a thorough nose to tail examination to detect any abnormalities with the eyes, ears, mouth, skin, heart, lungs, and other organ systems.
    • Appointments for sick pets focus in-depth on the problem the pet is experiencing at that time so that we can get your pet feeling back to their best.
  • Vaccinations
    • We offer only the highest quality and safest vaccines for our patients; we use only adjuvant-free vaccines for all feline patients and all of our canine vaccines have high safety profiles.
    • We tailor a vaccine schedule for each individual pet because we do not believe in a “one size fits all” vaccination protocol.
  • Lab Work
    • We can perform any type of lab test that your pet may require! Some basic tests can be performed in the home setting while you wait while other tests are sent to our diagnostic laboratory. Preliminary lab results are usually available within two business days when sent to our diagnostic laboratory.
  • Microchips
    • We use slim-style microchips which are more comfortable for the pet.
    • Microchips are registered at no additional cost in a national database so that your lost pet can find their way home if they go missing.
    • Your pet’s microchip will be scanned at every annual examination to ensure that it is still working properly.
  • Ailments
    • Call us when it comes to skin allergies, itchy ears, urinary problems, inappropriate behaviors, anxiety, eye issues, vomiting, diarrhea, and more – we  can treat and manage most medical issues without your pet ever having to leave home!
  • Pathology
    • Does your pet have a lump or bump that you would like to have checked? We can biopsy most growths within the home and send the sample to a board-certified pathologist to help reach a diagnosis and develop an appropriate treatment plan.
  • Euthanasia
    • We offer in-home euthanasia services so that your pet’s last tender moments can be spent in the comfort of their home surrounded by loved ones.
    • Various cremation options are available for those owners who wish to have their pet cremated.
  • Pharmacy
    • We stock our most commonly used antibiotics, pain medications, allergy medications, ear treatments, eye drops, and prescription topical therapies right on our truck; we aim to have what you need, when you need it!
  • Online Store
    • Our easy-to-navigate online store is accessible right from our home page! Through our store, you can schedule auto-shipments of medication refills, supplements, and prescription diets, all at competitive prices.
    • Manufacturer rebates are automatically applied to purchases when using our online storefront.
    • It is guaranteed that the medications or diets you order from our store are reliably sourced and are not expired or tampered with prior to shipment.
  • Prescription Diets
    • Many pets benefit from prescription diets, especially if they are suffering from kidney disease, urinary tract disease, high cholesterol, or frequent gastrointestinal upset.
    • We can have any prescription veterinary diet shipped directly to your door with a 100% Money Back Guarantee if your pet will not eat it.

Because of the nature of house-call veterinary practice, there may be times where it is advised to take your pet to a brick-and-mortar animal hospital if he or she is very sick,  needs more advanced diagnostics, or requires  surgical or anesthetic procedures. We maintain great relationships with many traditional veterinary hospitals throughout Lake County and can refer you to someone that we trust, if ever necessary.

Please be aware that we are not an emergency service and we are typically unable to accommodate same-day appointment requests.

In the event that your pet requires same-day service and we are unable to schedule you, please ask us for our recommendations of local clinics that might be best suited to assist your pet.

Cancellation Policy: If you need to cancel your appointment for any reason, we require a 48 hour notice in advance of the scheduled appointment. If this 48 hour notice is not given, you will be charged a non-refundable deposit prior to all future appointments to hold your appointment time. After three cancellations, we reserve the right to no longer offer additional services.
