A full clinic, brought to your doorstep.

From routine wellness exams to compassionate end-of-life care, Dr. Verble offers the full range of veterinary services for dogs and cats — all from the calm of your own home.

Wellness exams

Comprehensive annual checkups and preventive care, tailored to your pet's age, breed, and lifestyle. A relaxed exam at home means a more accurate picture of your pet's true health.

Routine care

Vaccinations

Core and lifestyle vaccines administered safely and on a schedule that works for you. No more dragging an anxious pet to the clinic for a quick injection.

Preventive

Sick visits & diagnostics

Timely evaluation and treatment for illness or injury. Dr. Verble brings diagnostic tools to your door and refers to trusted local clinics for advanced imaging when needed.

When you need help

Senior & chronic care

Specialized support for aging pets and those with ongoing conditions like arthritis, kidney disease, or diabetes. Home visits are kinder on stiff joints and fragile bodies.

Gentle approach

A house call, start to finish.

Meet Dr. Tyler Verble, DVM

Dr. Verble has been serving pets and their families across Cookeville and the Upper Cumberland for years. He founded House Call Veterinarian on a simple belief: animals receive better care when they're calm — and nothing is more calming than home.

By eliminating the stress of travel and unfamiliar surroundings, he's able to conduct more thorough exams and spend more meaningful time with each patient. Whether it's a routine wellness visit, a difficult diagnosis, or a final goodbye, Dr. Verble brings the same warmth, patience, and professionalism every time.

He specializes in house call care for dogs and cats, and is known throughout the community for his compassion and reliability.

A peaceful goodbye, at home.

Saying goodbye to a beloved companion is one of the hardest things a family can face. When the time comes, Dr. Verble offers in-home euthanasia so your pet can pass surrounded by the people and places they love most.

There is no fluorescent lighting, no waiting room, no last frightening car ride. Just a quiet, gentle process — at your pace, on your terms.

In their favorite spot

A calm, unhurried experience on the bed, the couch, or wherever your pet feels most at ease.

Family present

Loved ones — and other pets — can be there if it brings comfort to you and your animal.

Never rushed

Time before, during, and after. You set the pace. Dr. Verble follows your lead.

Local roots

Rooted in the Upper Cumberland.

Dr. Verble lives and practices in the same community he serves. Pictured here at a rabies clinic at Baxter City Hall, he's a familiar face to neighbors across Putnam County and the surrounding area.

That's part of what makes a house call practice work: when your veterinarian is local, knows the back roads, and treats your pets as members of the same community he calls home, the care feels different from the moment he pulls into the driveway.

Questions, answered.

A few of the things people most often ask before booking their first house call. Don't see your question? Just give us a call.

What areas do you serve? +
Cookeville and the surrounding Upper Cumberland area, including Algood, Baxter, Monterey, Sparta, Crossville, Livingston, and the communities in between. If you're not sure whether you're in the service area, just call and ask.
What animals do you treat? +
Dogs and cats only. This focus allows Dr. Verble to bring deep expertise to every visit and keeps the equipment and supplies he carries practical for in-home care.
How does pricing work? +
Pricing is comparable to a traditional clinic visit, with a modest house call fee that varies by distance. Dr. Verble is happy to discuss costs over the phone before scheduling so there are no surprises.
What if my pet needs surgery or imaging? +
Many issues can be diagnosed and treated entirely at home. For procedures that require a hospital — surgeries, x-rays, ultrasounds — Dr. Verble works with trusted local clinics and will help coordinate referrals.
How do I prepare for the visit? +
Almost no preparation is needed. A quiet room, your pet's favorite blanket or bed, and any prior medical records you have on hand. Dr. Verble brings the rest.
How do I book an appointment? +
Just call (931) 267-2298. Appointments are scheduled by phone so we can hear about your pet directly and find a time that works for you.
