How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Rowland Animal 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

Doc. Rowland is the best vet I've been to. When I got my new pup, Lulu, He was able to hook it up when my apartments were threatening to charge me $25 a day till she gets vaccinated. He made special arrangements that same day for my pup to get her rabies shot after I left him a message! I really appreciated that!! He is also genuinely a caring Doc. I'll be coming back every year to keep my Lulu protected. 🐾🐶💕

Dr.Rowland and his techs were amazing. We took our 4 yr old dog who suffered from IVDD we were hopeless, but he gave us hope that with the proper care and meds he would recover. It’s been over a month and he is walking and doing so much better. We will always be thankful for his care to our fur baby.Thank you Dr.Rowland and Staff!

Took my mini daschund here for a lump I found on her chest. Dr. Rowland was knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and knew about IVDD (back disease common in daschunds). He diagnosed a lump on her chest as a lipoma needing nothing further. He recommended a dental which we had done a week later with great results. He ended up extracting 5 teeth, prescribing meds, and calling to check up on her after the surgery. Prices were so reasonable too!

Doc Rowland is an AWESOME, AMAZING guy!! Took time out of his weekend to talk to me and give me advice on an emergency with my 2.5 month old kitten…and she was not even registered at his facility. Unbelievable!! This man really does care for our fur babies!! Of course my precious is now registered with him, along with her three sisters!! Highly recommend him!!! He is an awesome vet! AAA+++ Can’t say enough about him!!

Yesterday, I brought in a kitten from a litter we found outside & have been taking care of. This kitten was born paralyzed waist down & we have spent two months teaching it to walk, play, helped it use the bathroom, cleaned it. We wanted to make sure it had a good life while we found a foster willing to take on the extra work. Unfortunately yesterday morning, he started to decline very fast so we sped him to the closest vet we could find because all the emergency vets gave us a week time frame to wait. This poor kitten was laying there, clearly suffering. We walked in & before even looking at the kitten they said it was going to be $195. They did not mention what this covers or doesn’t cover, they took our payment & kitten & told us to sit in the waiting room. I went to the bathroom for maybe 1-2 minutes & when I came out they had already put the kitten down. There was no conversation on what it would cost for us, or really any sort of conversation at all, it all happened so fast. After putting the kitten down, the short haired red head vet tech came back very rudely to ask if we wanted to “pay $130 to take the DEAD CAT HOME WITH US. Or $250 for Metro to pick up the body.” Talking about our kitten like it’s an item in front of my 8 year old niece. No compassion while we all cried. Even offered us a BAG to carry it to which my niece asked her “You mean like a dead goldfish?” & she ignored her. When we were obviously shocked by these numbers, given we already paid $200 to walk in the door, she pretty much laughed at us & explained “well we have to pay the crematory” & rolled her eyes at us when we needed time to figure it out. As again, these are outdoor kittens we were trying to HELP. Luckily, we called metro ourselves & explained the situation in tears, & metro was kind enough to help us out & even pick up the kitten for FREE. I do suggest you all work with crematories yourself if that is the very sad route you need to take after a visit here, because no one in the office wanted to help at all. The only person who thanked us for trying was the actual vet. He’s the only reason I’d even give two stars. This isn’t a retail store where we were arguing about a discount on a shirt, we watched a kitten slowly suffer all morning just to have this vet tech treat us like garbage instead of be grateful we tried our best to do the right thing for this helpless kitten. I regret not listening to anyone who said not to come here, but we hoped they would want to help this poor kitten. Not just worry about making $500 off of it.
