How to Save Money at Village House Call Vet

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.

Getting 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.

Dr. Q knows what it takes to be the vet we all need! Caring, smart, empathetic and ensuring our pet feels comfortable in their safe place - home. I don't know what I would do without her for my little Lucy!

Dr. Quagliata is one of the most skilled and compassionate veterinarians I've ever seen. What impresses me the most about her is the sheer amount of time she invests in each individual client, even after the appointment is over. Dr. Q. treats her clients like dear friends, while also being a firm advocate for the health and happiness of her patients. You won't find a team that provides more exceptional care than Village House Call Vet, all while taking away the normal stressors that come with having to go to a brick and mortar hospital!

We recently received our quarantine puppy Mabel, she arrived on a weekend where my Husband was out of town, and I was not prepared! Dr.Q came to our house to do an exam, ran a few tests and made me feel so comfortable with our new little love in record time. We have never had an in home visit (we have another dog, Charlie) and I can’t say enough good things about what an incredible experience it was, especially in these challenging times. Dr. Q was prepared for anything and made me feel so informed and educated. I feel so fortunate to have had such a great experience and to have a trusted partner for questions and advice!

Dr Quagliata was my puppy’s vet from the moment I brought her home until the day I had to say goodbye. She is compassionate, honest, professional and responsive. I was lucky to be able to rely on her throughout my dogs life. Of course she was the first vet I went to when I got my new dog!

Such a great experience working with Dr. Q! We recently brought home our first puppy and she’s been so attentive and helpful every step of the way. It’s clear she truly cares and has made us feel so comfortable navigating this experience - I highly recommend Village House Call for anyone in need of quality and trusted care for their pet.
