How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Cheval Animal Hospital
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. Riley did an amazing job on my dogs vasectomy. The surgery was just over 30 minutes and he healed without any complications. We are ecstatically happy! Thank you!

I've been using Cheval for a few years now with my fur babies and have always had a great experience. I brought our new kitten, Zoey, into see Dr. Smith and as usual he was wonderful. He even remembered my other kitty and asked how she was doing. Cheval truly cares and provides great care in order to provide the best outcomes possible.

During my recent visit to Cheval Animal Hospital with Zeus, I was highly impressed with the level of professional and attentive service received from Dr. Riley and her team. From the friendly receptionist to Dr. Riley's knowledgeable and thorough examination, I felt confident in the care provided. The staff demonstrated a genuine concern for Zeus's well-being and showed a high level of compassion and care throughout the visit. Overall, I had an excellent experience at Cheval Animal Hospital and would highly recommend their services to anyone in need of compassionate and professional veterinary care for their pets.

I have been wanting to get around to finally leaving a review upon the unfortunate news of my 4 year old male neutered cat who blocked about two months ago. The morning that he had been painfully vocal with me I called and had my boyfriend bring him in as I was working at the time. Dr. Riley and the staff was just preparing to get into a surgery when she had stopped to almost immediately unblock my baby the moment he was brought in before going into her surgery. He was hospitalized for three days with the best care at hand possible and to this day is doing fantastic! Blocking can be fatal for male neutered cats, and mine is the reason I wake up each day. I am so blessed to have had a veterinarian and a crew care that much as to see us when it was a life or death emergency and more over ease my kitty of his prolonged urinary issues. Without the education I have acquired from this hospital, the staff and doctors my cat could have died horribly and I would have been incredibly confused as to how. If you're looking for an animal hospital that cares this is a great choice, my best experience with a vet in my life (and it was during one of my cat's worst experiences in his life).

I took my cat here for her 1st checkup today. She is a bit wild and would not stay calm for the exam. Dr. Nichols was excellent and came up with a quick plan to help her. Everyone was so friendly and accommodating. I definitely recommend Cheval Animal Hospital and we will definitely be back!
