How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Vetco Vaccination Clinic

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.

It was a wonderful experience. Quick service, everything was explained to us. Doctor was very gentle with our cat. They answered our questions. Friendly staff, I highly recommend them to everyone, you will not regret it. Thank you, keep up the great job. Coquito is in good hands.

The majority of the staff here are professional and do everything right; they are clearly working to weed out the few employees that cause "sour" reviews. It isn’t a Vetco/Petco issue—it often comes down to the individual. ​I recently witnessed an assistant who showed very little engagement with the client or the pet. They clearly weren't comfortable, which resulted in a kitten easily slipping out of its restraint. The assistant seemed fearful, and I actually had to encourage them to engage with the kitten to keep things safe. ​When writing reviews, please be specific and clear rather than judgmental. Don't "false label" the whole business as if everything was wrong. I love Petco, the staff, and the Vetco Clinic. Give them a go! Never let one person's mistake stop you from getting your pet the utmost care. If you have a serious grievance, I recommend contacting the Vetco Clinic hospital in Newington directly. ​#RECOMMEND #PETCO #VETCOCLINIC

We just got a kitten that didn't have any vaccinations done yet. We brought her here for her first visit and even though she was a little scared, they handled her perfectly and with care! The check-in process was very easy and the techs who administered her vaccines were wonderful. We'll be returning in a few weeks to do her next round as well.
