Get to know Dr. Marissa Kelso DVM
Dr. Marissa has been honoured to work with the pets and their parents in the North Grenville/Ottawa area since February 2022.
She has always been interested in the human/animal bond and offering mobile veterinary care has allowed for a much greater understanding of that bond as well as the opportunity to explore alternative treatment modalities for her patients. From puppy and kitten visits to palliative and end of life appointments, they are all unique and incredibly important to Dr. Kelso.
In 2025, with a local DVM, Dr. Kelso opened the Ottawa Valley Spay Neuter Clinic. While she helps run the clinic, her focus is on mobile holistic veterinary care.
Dr. Kelso is passionate about mental health, especially within the field of veterinary medicine. In her spare time, Dr. Kelso enjoys spending time with her wife, two daughters and her pets (1 Frenchie, 2 cats, 4 horses), as well as learning and travelling to warm destinations.
New for 2026!!! Dr. Kelso and the mobile vet will be offering Concierge Memberships for even an even more personalized, thorough and compassionate care veterinary experience.

Wonder who is on the other end of those e-mails you send to themobiletvet.ca? It is Amanda!
Dr. Kelso and Amanda have been working together for over 2 years. Amanda has over 20 years of experience in the field of veterinary medicine. Amanda left the field to pursue other dreams, however, she missed interacting with and educating pet owners and came back.
When not working for themobilevet, Amanda owns and runs her own motel in the Morrisburg area. Her two kids and multiple animals also keep her very busy.
We are very grateful to have Amanda on our team!
