How to Save Money at Sacramento Valley Veterinary Services
Schedule Regular Vet Visits
One of the best ways to save on vet bills is to prevent expensive health issues before they develop. By scheduling regular wellness checkups, your vet can detect health issues early, helping you to avoid costly treatments and surgeries down the road.
Price Shop for Pet Prescriptions
Oftentimes our fur babies are prescribed human drugs off-label. Your vet is apt to charge more for these medications than you would pay at your local pharmacy. In fact, big-box or chain pharmacies can offer steep discounts. So it’s best to price shop.
Pet Insurance
Most pet insurance providers will pay between 80% and 90% of the vet bill. You can even get coverage for routine care and things like vaccinations and dental cleanings. If you do the math, you’ll most likely find that pet insurance makes financial sense in the long run as well as gives you peace of mind.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting to Know Your New Vet: Essential Questions to Ask
Choosing a new veterinarian is an important decision for any pet owner. You want to find someone who is competent, compassionate, and a good fit for you and your fur baby. To help you get the most out of your first appointment, here's a list of essential questions to ask your new vet:
Tell me about your experience with [pet type].
Different vets have different areas of specialization. Some are experts with cats, some dogs, some pocket pets, and some horses. Knowing that your vet has vast experience treating your specific type of pet can bring you peace of mind.
How do you handle emergencies?
You must know what to do in case of a pet medical emergency. Inquire what after-hours policy the clinic has, whether they have on-site emergency care available, and if they have a relationship with any nearby emergency animal hospitals.
How do you communicate with pet owners?
Good communication is key to building a trusting relationship with your vet. Ask how they prefer to communicate (phone calls, emails, online portal) and how often you can expect to hear from them.
Are there any breed-specific health concerns I should be aware of?
Some breeds are predisposed to certain health conditions. Knowing what to watch out for can help you catch problems early and get your pet the treatment they need.
Do you have any questions for me about my pet?
This is a great question to ask because the answer will show that the vet is interested in getting to know your pet as an individual and is willing to listen to your concerns.
Bonus question: Can I take a tour of your facility?
Getting a feel for the clinic's environment can help you and your pet feel more comfortable during your visits. Remember, you’re not just looking for a veterinarian, you’re looking for a partnership. Do not be afraid to ask these questions and any others you can think of. Any vet worth their salt will be happy to answer them. Because the more informed you are, the better equipped you'll be to make decisions about your pet's care! And that should be every vet’s top priority.

Saying goodbye to our sweet girl, Abby, was one of the most difficult moments of our lives, but we are so grateful for Dr. Summers and the compassionate care she provided. From the moment we reached out, she handled everything with kindness, patience, and professionalism, making an unbearable experience as peaceful as possible. Being able to say our final goodbyes at home, in Abby’s favorite spot, surrounded by love, was a gift. Dr. Summers took the time to explain everything, allowing us to be present and honor Abby’s life with dignity and grace. Her gentle approach and genuine empathy reassured us that we were giving Abby the most loving farewell possible. We cannot thank Dr. Summers enough for her support during this heartbreaking time. If you ever face the difficult decision of saying goodbye to a beloved pet, I highly recommend her services. She truly brings comfort, care, and compassion when it is needed most. Thank you, Dr. Summers and team for helping.

Yesterday I had to say goodbye to four legged baby that I had the pleasure of being with for 13 years 2 weeks and 3 days. My friend who has blessed my family (parents, sisters and their wife and children) eitt with 10 more babies. To say my girl was loved and a valued member of our family is an understatement. The vet I go to normally is wonderful, I sing their praises, even in this post I want to thank Broadway Veterinary Clinic because when we knew this was the inevitable they recommended looking for someone to do in home euthanasia as they thought it would be best for me and my girl. I'm glad I made the decision to use Dr. Summers. I'm sure the job she's chosen to bare is tough not only because she is putting animals down but because she has to see grief stricken family. The initial texts were very to the point which made me nervous but when she got to my home she was so kind. She reassured me, which I desperately needed since my girl had been running through tricks just before. She let me give my sweet Honey girl yummy treats as she was sedating her so Honey was not anxious at all then let me hold her as she gave the injection to stop her heart. What I truly appreciated was her willingness to help me with something commemorative I wanted to do after Honeys passing but most importantly the way honey was transported down to the truck after she was gone. This was a huge fear for me. My sister had watched her animals be placed in body bags and I dressed that. Dr, Summers provided us with a stretcher that was more like a blanket with handles which I appreciated. It was more like my pup was wrapped in a blanket than some cold body bag. Dr. Summers I told you thank you for providing this service yesterday, but one thing I will remember from this experience was you complimenting Honey's size snd telling me how you tell people "Get a lab!" And if they say they want a small dog you say "Get a little lab" If you're reading this and you're faced with this terrible moment in life, my heart breaks with yours, it still won't be easy but this is a choice I will one day (hopefully many years from now) make again and I would recommend Dr. Summers.

This month we had to put our sweet 16yo baby girl to sleep. It was the worst day of my young adult daughter's life, and she was not sure whether or not she could handle being there for the euthanasia. Several companies were recommended by our vet, so we called down the list, and SVVS was the only place we called with an opening that day. The woman who answered the phone in the office was so sweet and empathetic, and Dr. Summers made the experience as painless as it could possibly be. We are so grateful that we did not feel rushed saying goodbye, and my daughter was so glad she was there until the very end.

Saying good-bye to my sweet boy was absolutely heart wrenching, but doing it at home where he felt comfortable made it less tramatic for us both. Dr. Summers was wonderful and answered all my questions and prepared me for what would take place as I had never had to do this before. She is a very kind, gentle soul and gave me comfort during the process. She even took the time to mail a hand written card sharing her sympathies. Thank you Dr. Summers. I truly appreciate the service you provide to help give our fur babies the most peaceful passing. I'm relieved that my boy isn't in pain anymore ❤️
