How to Save Money at Companion Animal Care Center
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.
Reviews from Google
We visited the clinic prior to letting our dog board. We toured the facility, the spacious playground area. We left our dog with them and he was fine. My cat had to have her visit and vet and technicians were great. My cat was calm with them. No issues. Receptionist was nice on the phone, nice to me and very helpful. The tech was good with both of my animals. This is close to my home and very high tech facility.

Worse pet care ever! DO NOT BOARD YOUR PETS HERE!! After over 2 years of not allowing any clients into the facility with your pet, having to wait in your car, due to "Covid", ( just lazy and uncaring about clients) horrible techs, horrible handlers, horrible conditions, uncaring attitudes, disrespectful receptionist, and the worse boarding experience I've ever had, we will never be back. I am sharing how bad they are to save other pet owners! I've owned German Shepherds for over 50 years. Our current GSD is sweet, has been boarded multiple times in multiple states. Never had a problem before this place. Someone there abused/terrified her and they kept her sedated the entire week she was there! She was completely traumatized!! She has now been boarded at her new Vet for the past week without issues or problems ( just as all other vets the past 7.5 yrs before Campanion) Pet owners! Find a new Vet!! If you love your pets don't leave them with these people! I was told they had good doctors here, so against my better judgment (THE RUN DOWN CONDITION OF THE PLACE) we took our pets here. Terrible experience on all levels. We moved to a new Vet in Tupelo, friendly staff, helpful, caring Doctors, allowed in with your pet for exams, friendly, respectful, courteous receptionist, clean well kept facility...the care/quality my pets and I deserve.

This is just a amazing place people that really care and willing and able to help. Prices were out of this world. I would of been paying 1000 and instead less the 400. I couldn’t believe it. I’m so so thankful we found this place. I recommend this place to anyone. Caring,helpful, and affordable… I can’t thank you all enough for taken caring of our chaos..
