How to Save Money at Pet Care Professionals
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.

I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Kate about a week ago, and she immediately recognized my dog behaviors and gently examined him to determine he was suffering from some spinal problems. I had been at both my regular vet and the emergency vet that week and still didn't have any answers. Dr. Kate prescribed him some meds, and we have been taking it easy and healing ever sense. I also have to say that she also came to James Island to see him, and he and I weren't doing well. He was in a lot of discomfort and I was lost without answers, and feeling helpless. She followed up with me a few days later, and was delighted to hear his progress. He wasn't vocalizing his pain anymore, and had started to bear weight down on his leg. I can't say enough great things about Dr. Kate, she will handle all of our pet care needs going forward. Thanks Dr. Kate, I really appreciate your gentle nature with Cappy and your service is top notch!! Will have you back out soon for little Gabby. I highly recommend Dr. Kate for your pet care needs, I only wish I would have found her sooner. ✌️🥰🐾

Dr. Kate is our first call when we have a question about our 5 dogs or cat. She’s incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and always easy to talk to. To note- one of our beloved older dogs had a back issue which she quickly diagnosed and prescribed an effective treatment plan where other vets had failed. It’s clear she has a passion for helping pets and people- we feel fortunate to have her as an advocate for our pets!

I highly recommend Pet Care Professionals ! They answered the phone as soon as I called for an emergency with my cat 🐈 Charlie. They made my cat a priority and they were very attentive. Dr Cappe is very personable and my animals actually enjoy when she shows up. I use to struggle wrangling up my cat to take him to the vet but now that the vet comes to my house it’s a lot less stress on my furry babies 🐈 🐶 ! If ever in doubt of your pets health call Pet Care Professionals I did and I’m glad i did !

Dr. Cappe is one of the most patient and kind vet that I have ever used. My girl Amitz is a bit apprehensive when going to the vet. Dr. Cappe took her time when giving shots. Amitz didn’t even realize she got the shot! Her gentle hand went a long way. I have three dogs and a cat. All in her care! If my pets are happy, I’m happy! Thank you!
