What we offer

Puppy and kitten vaccinations

We'll walk you through the full schedule from their first visit, explain what each vaccine covers, and make sure they're protected before they mix with other animals.
‍

Adult dog and cat boosters

Annual boosters keep your pet covered for the diseases that matter most in your area. We check in on their overall health at the same time, so nothing gets missed.
‍

Vaccination health checks

Not sure if your pet is up to date? We can review their history, check their records, and get them back on track, whether they're a new patient or a long-time client.

A vaccination visit is $140 to $160 with the health check included. Coming along Burwood Highway? The Burwood East page has the route and the 75 tram stops.

Why Caring Paws for vaccination

Every vaccine comes with a health check

‍We don't just administer the vaccine and send you on your way. Each appointment includes a full nose-to-tail check so we can spot anything that might need attention.
‍

We explain what we're giving and why

‍You'll leave knowing exactly what your pet was vaccinated against, when the next one is due, and what to watch for in the days after. No guesswork.
‍

We'll remind you when it's time

‍Life gets busy. We'll send a reminder when your pet's booster is due so they stay protected without you having to keep track.

What to expect

We know handing your pet over for vaccination might be scary. Here's how we make the process as clear and comfortable as possible.

Health Check

Before anything is administered, we do a full physical examination. If your pet isn't well enough to vaccinate safely that day, we'll reschedule and let you know why.

The vaccination

Quick, calm, and as stress-free as we can make it. We take our time with anxious pets and won't rush the appointment.

What to watch for

We'll tell you what's normal in the 24–48 hours after (mild tiredness, slight tenderness at the site) and what would warrant a call back to us.

Next steps

Before you leave, we'll confirm when the next booster is due and add it to our reminder system so nothing slips through.
