Frequently asked questions

Can a RexVet veterinarian prescribe medication for my pet in Ithaca?

RexVet veterinarians are licensed in New York. If the veterinarian decides medication is appropriate, they can prescribe where state rules allow; some medications need an in-person exam first. When the veterinarian prescribes, RexVetRx fills the prescription and ships it to your Ithaca address.

How quickly can I see a vet from Ithaca?

Most Ithaca pet parents are connected with a licensed New York veterinarian within minutes. RexVet is available 24/7 — including nights, weekends, and holidays — so you're not waiting for a clinic to open.

What kinds of pet issues can a Ithaca online vet handle?

Our New York-licensed veterinarians regularly handle skin issues, allergies, ear and eye infections, urinary problems, digestive upsets, anxiety, flea and tick concerns, and refill requests (where state rules allow). If your pet needs hands-on care, the vet will tell you exactly what to do next.

Is RexVet available across Ithaca and surrounding neighborhoods?

Yes. Any Ithaca-area pet parent — including Collegetown, Fall Creek, Cayuga Heights, and beyond — can connect with a licensed New York RexVet veterinarian by secure video, no in-person visit required.

Why is RexVet cheaper than other online vet services?

RexVet is a 501(c)(3) non-profit. Unlike for-profit telehealth competitors, we reinvest surplus into expanding access to care rather than paying shareholders. That's why visits start at $64.99 — roughly half the cost of a typical in-person vet visit in Ithaca.

What if my pet needs an in-person veterinarian after the visit?

If your pet needs hands-on care — like X-rays, surgery, or emergency intervention — the RexVet vet will explain why and help you decide what to do next. We're happy to share your pet's medical records with a local Ithaca clinic to keep care continuous.
