How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Pet Maintenance & Repair
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.

From November to December, I was a frequent flyer at this vet when they first opened. So I have had a lot of experience going here and can definitely confirm this is an amazing clinic and you should feel very secure taking your animals here--My dog broke her foot, I had to go to the ER in Santa Cruz to get her a splint and then was told that I would need to get weekly splints. I previously would go to the other vet in Prunedale when my dogs were in need of care, but they just didn't have the availability for weekly appointments. I luckily found this place, and I am so glad I did! They were able to fit me in right away and every week for 6 weeks. They did a great job with my dog. Her splints were always colorful and cute sometimes with a heart or something creative. When I walked in, the staff would greet Jackie (my dog) and let me know how much they loved her. The vet would always talk to me and let me know the progress and let me know his recommendations while being very transparent about prices. This is all while being a brand new clinic. Going to the vet each week for 6 weeks is not ideal, but it was necessary, and thanks to their amazing service and being 2 minutes from my house, made it as seamless as possible. They are small, and the setup is different as far as you are not in the room during examination, but it actually works really well and is very efficient. I'm so happy to have a new local vet! I have a feeling this place will soon be very busy, but I am so glad we now have two awesome vet clinics in Prunedale!

I simply can’t say enough good things about this veterinary practice. Last week I took my chihuahua mix to PM&R for a dental cleaning. Everything was exactly as promised, and better. My dog’s breath smells almost like roses again, and the charges were exactly as they were explained to me prior to the procedure. The office is sparkling, clean. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. I’ve already recommended this place to several friends. Elliot and I are glad to have found them. OK, the dog, maybe not so glad, but me… Ecstatic.

Great prices, don't force boosters on you. Very accommodating. I take my violent chihuahua here. He always has to be muzzled. We found him as a stray, and it took him a long time to even trust us. They let me come in the room with him and hold him. It helps him calm down a little. We plan on transitioning all of our animals to this vet.

I like this Vet. Dr. Jeff has my stamp of approval, I've been looking for a vet that I fell comfortable taking my fur babies to for about 3 years. He took care of my new rescue kitty Eleanor, he spayed and gave her her vaccination shots. The ladies in the office were helpful and friendly. I appreciate their help, it makes my trip to the vet easier. Thank you for being the vet I've missed for far too long. By the way Miss Eleanor Rigby is doing great. 😻

The BEST Veterinarian we've seen in a very very long time! Dr Jeff and Dr Bartlett work in concert to HELP Pets and their People!
