How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Companion Pet 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.

I’ve been taking my buddy, Emmitt, to Companion Pet Care over the past four years. Through the years, Companion Pet Care has always proven to be professional and very trust worthy. Unfortunately, Emmitt’s health took a turn for the worse over the past week. We brought Emmitt in for a visit on Friday and we had to make the hardest decision of our life, it was time to say goodbye. We were well informed by Dr. Shivers and his staff about Emmitt’s condition and the options available to us. We determined all options to try to keep him around would have been for selfish reasons as his quality of life would be diminished and there was a possibility Emmitt would not survive surgical procedures. Dr. Shivers helped with our decision and explained the entire process to us. We were allowed time to spend with Emmitt before, during, and after the process of euthanasia. Throughout the process, Dr. Shivers found a way to help put a smile on our faces despite the circumstances and we truly appreciate that. We probably won’t have another pet for a while as we navigate the grieving process, but when we do decide to share our love and home with another dog again, Companion Pet Care will be our designated vet.

Dr. Jessica is one of the best veterinarians we have ever met. She's definitely someone who LOVES her job and works hard to make sure your pet is well taken care of. All of the staff are there to help your loved one feel at home. Companion Pet Care is the only Vet clinic I will ever take my dog.

Dr. Stratton and the staff are gentle and patient with my rescue dogs. They take the time to listen to my concerns, and are so kind to my dogs, who have trust issues from mistreatment in the past. I feel so comfortable there, and they make sure to meet the needs of all of us! Highly recommend Dr. Stratton if you have a nervous pet.

Staff is very knowledgeable and informative and will take good care of your pet. They do not push any service that is not needed, and have found they charge reasonable fees for visits, services and supplies. They make you feel like family' and during our 2nd visit is was wonderful to see a sign welcoming their new patients to the practice our Maverick included.
