How to Save on Veterinary Costs at PET Urgent Care
Preventive care
Routine wellness exams can help identify health issues early, often before they become more serious or expensive to treat. Regular checkups are one of the most effective ways to manage long term veterinary costs.
Compare prescription pricing
Some pet medications prescribed at veterinary clinics may also be available through local or online pharmacies. It can be helpful to compare pricing when appropriate to reduce ongoing medication costs.
Consider pet insurance
Pet insurance may help cover a portion of eligible veterinary expenses depending on the plan, including accidents, illnesses, and in some cases preventive care. Coverage details, reimbursement levels, and deductibles vary by provider.

Our senior dog was having balance issues and our vet recommended urgent care. The staff was so kind and compassionate; they provided competent care and instructions to keep things running smoothly at home. I was pleasantly surprised at the affordable cost of the visit. Yes, it can take time to be seen, and that’s how Urgent Care works, but we were still able to run errands and check back in to get an idea of how many patients were still ahead of us. So grateful for them. Added bonus…they had my dog’s info at the ready as she had been to Pet ER in 2016, and they noted that her records from the visit will be sent to her current doctor. Thanks for the help and care, Dr. K, Brittany, and Sarah!

Sadly, our family had to say goodbye to our 15 year old lab. The team at PET Urgent Care was so phenomenal during the whole process. Sarah at the front was very sweet and kind and got us in a room right away. The tech who came into the room to take our Old Man pup to have his IV place was also very respectful and sweet. Dr. K. walked me through the whole process before she started, and everyone told me to take as much time as I needed with my boy before he went off go fog heaven. Dr. K. made sure I was ready to say goodbye and took the whole process slow. I never felt rushed. The who team respected these last moments we had with our 4-legged family member. Overall, I had a very positive experience, and I would recommend this location if you needed to have a pet put down. Also their prices are some of the best in town. We called several places, and they had the best price for a private cremation and to have our boys' ashes returned to us.

Amazing care. Recently moved to Anchorage and have not established a vet in AK. My Rotty was ill, several spots on face and cheek draining. Feared the worst. Took my baby there Friday afternoon, immediately greeted and paperwork was simple. There were 2 pets ahead of us, wait time was about an hour. This is an urgent care, not an ER so they see first come, which was what I expected. Tech, Brittany, brought us into room, quickly calmed my fears and reassured me that my baby would be fine. Dr Hannah Kasukonis examined my Rotty and put my mind at ease when she asked me how to best approach my sick Rotty and took it slow and gained her trust. Sedation recommended for shaving and cleaning up sites. Estimate was much less than expected. Let a few hours later with my baby much improved. From front office to all services, could not have been more impressed. Itemized bill provided for me to submit to my insurance for claim. Highly recommend when you need same day service or cannot get into your vet. It's a relief knowing they are there when they are needed, great resource for Anchorage

I took my foster cat in to get help with a ruptured hematoma. They got me right in, were super kind, and NOT expensive. I highly recommend taking your pet here if you need urgent help. 10/10! They were great! Thank you for your kindness!
