How to Save on Veterinary Costs at AnnieVet Veterinary 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.

Five stars isn’t enough. We were struggling finding a vet for our 3 year old pitty who had been sick for days. Danielle was so sweet, and kind over the phone, she was able to help me through my crisis brain. I came home to find a GIANT dog mess. The icky, sticky, goopy, poopy that you hope to never see for your dogs (or quite frankly, in general). Our boy had a blockage, and needed surgery right away. They were able to get him in on THANKSGIVING of all days- and were able to take calls for donations. I hope to NEVER go through this again, but if we needed urgent medical care for our animals I would be calling Dr. Bellows. Thank you for all your care, kindness, and hard work.

It was a Sunday when my sister and I were looking for a clinic for our pet Hamster Albert. Every place did NOT take hamsters but AnnieVet gladly took a look at our hammie. The staff was phenomenal, especially the receptionist. She was super sweet and caring over the phone and when we came in. The veteran was awesome as well! They're super transparent with the care of your animals which is great! I would highly recommend this place for people with Hamster or any pets!

My sweet dog had a lump on her jaw the size of a grape. She wasn’t acting strange, but we needed it to be seen anyway. The staff was kind and efficient! And Dr Bellows was fast and sweet! My dog was nervous of the people in scrubs, but warmed up to them all quickly. I was in and out for my simple abscess in under 40 minutes with meds in hand. I was prepped to spend a lot of money, but the bill was much cheaper than I thought! If you have an emergency on the weekend, this is place to take your pet!

I cant say enough good things about the care our kitty received at AnnieVet!! Our cat started having worsening symptoms over the weekend, he was treated promptly and with such excellent customer service from start to finish. I know he received top notch care and am so grateful to know this urgent care is here in the valley. Hopefully we dont need to come back, but if there is ever a problem with our pets in the future we know where to go! 10/10.

Dr. Bellows and her staff are so caring and skilled. Big Lake is so lucky to have AnnieVet in the area. My husband went to pick up my Trixie after a long day of tests and procedures to try to determine what was wrong with her and when he got there near closing, there was Dr. Bellows wrapping up her daily paperwork with my Trixie on her lap. I’m forever grateful for her expertise and kindness during a heartbreaking time.
