How same-day booking works
- 1. Visit rexvet.org and click Book Appointment
- 2. Choose the earliest available slot ($64.99)
- 3. Fill out a short 5-question health history — takes 3-5 minutes

- 5. Prescription sent electronically to your chosen pharmacy
- 6. Chewy pharmacy ships next business day; CVS/Walgreens often same-day pickup

Frequently asked questions
Can I really get a same-day online vet visit today?
Most weekdays yes — RexVet has same-day slots available. Weekends have reduced availability. Book online at rexvet.org; if there's an open slot in the next few hours, you can grab it. If the slots are full, the earliest next-day slot is usually before noon.
How long does the full process take from booking to prescription?
Typically under 2 hours end-to-end. About 5 minutes for the health history, 10-20 minutes for the video visit, and a few minutes for the prescription to reach your pharmacy electronically. Pharmacy pickup depends on their queue (usually within an hour at CVS/Walgreens).
What states does same-day online vet cover?
Florida, New York, and Virginia. Our licensed DVMs can only prescribe for pets whose owners are physically located in FL, NY, or VA at the time of the video visit.
What can be prescribed same-day online?
Oral medications and topical treatments — Apoquel, Simparica Trio, NexGard, Bravecto, Heartgard Plus, Interceptor Plus, Revolution Plus, Trazodone, Prozac, Gabapentin, Cerenia oral, metronidazole, doxycycline, Clavamox, cephalexin, topical steroids, otic drops, ophthalmic drops. Cannot prescribe injectables or controlled substances via telehealth.
Is same-day online vet safe?
Yes — for appropriate use cases (refills, triage, follow-ups, non-emergency issues). Same-day telehealth is NOT appropriate for emergencies, first-time complex diagnoses, or anything requiring hands-on physical exam. If your pet is in distress, go to a physical ER immediately.
What if my pet needs to be seen in person after the video visit?
If the DVM determines your pet needs in-person care, they'll refer you to a local vet or emergency hospital. No additional fee — the $64.99 was the consultation. You still get the DVM's assessment and record of the visit for the receiving vet.
Do you accept walk-ins or is it appointment only?
Appointment only — but same-day slots function similarly to walk-ins. Book the earliest available slot online and you'll be seen shortly after. No physical waiting room; you get a text and email when the DVM is ready.
