How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Ranch House Veterinary Services
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.

Dr Stewart and Gail her veterinary assistant came to our home to exam our newly adopted kitty that lost her previous owner in October. She was not a cooperative patient Dr Stewart and Gail suggested the safest and easiest way for my kitty to be examined was to sedate her. They were so loving and kind to her. They performed the tests she needed and exam efficiently while my kitty was asleep then she received an injection to slowly wake her. Dr Stewart and Gail waited and stayed while she was waking up to make sure she was fine. They were so amazing in handling a very uncooperative kitty I will continue to have my kitty under their care. Gail followed up later to check on my kitty and Dr Stewart called me the next day to review the results of my kitty labs and we now have a solid plan to take care of my kitty needs.

We had a wonderful experience with Ranch House. My dog declined in health very quickly and we urgently needed them to come to our home. They were able to come over within 90 minutes and help our dog pass peacefully and pain free. Dr. Stewart was amazing and absolutely so passionate towards us! She visited me again today to bring our dogs paw prints that they took for us and again was so sweet! I will definitely be using her as our other dogs main veterinarian.

We could not have been happier with the ladies at Ranch House Vet. They examined all 3 of our animals in the comfort of our own backyard. The exams were given with love and care. The gentle hands kept all 3 animals calm and as collected as possible. Our dog Ollie was the first for the exam and he was elated with all the pets and treats. Hannah and Dorito our cats, were held safely and examined quickly. I highly recommend Ranch House. They are our home vet now and we are pleased.

Dr. Stewart and her staff are knowledgeable and caring people who love our fur babies almost as much as we do. We recently had to put our 16-year-old Mal, Remy, down. She was the best dog anyone could have wished for and it took months of us calling to schedule the appointment and then canceling as we thought she was doing better. When the time did finally come Dr. Stewart took hours with us as we said our final goodbyes in the comfort of Remy’s own home. It was a blessing to hold her as she drifted off. We now use Dr. Stewart with our cat, Kane. No more putting him in a crate and driving him to a place he does not want to be. Kane, is seen in our home and it doesn’t seem as traumatic.

Dr. Stewart and Ranch House Vet. Services have been taking care of our dogs for many years. As a physician, I recognize good quality medical care whether it is for people or pets. Dr. Stewart is an outstanding veterinarian and her preventive care advise has given us many additional years of quality time with our dogs. The mobile service is a big plus! Our current dog does not "play well with others" and the mobile visits allow to be evaluated and treated safely and comfortably at home. This is much less stressful for all of us. She loves seeing Dr. Stewart and her staff when they come to visit. If you value comprehensive, high quality veterinary care, I highly recommend Dr. Stewart and her Ranch House team!
