How to Save on Veterinary Costs at WeekendVET
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.

They saved my dog Zoey's life after she was brutally attacked. So much blood loss, so many stitches. Exemplary emergency care. The staff is wonderful. Nicest facility I have ever seen!

Pet emergencies also seem to occur over the weekend when my usual vet is closed.Dr Wooding at The Weekend Vet was able to see my Tater Tot over the weekend when we needed help the most and gave me peace of mind. The staff is so caring and friendly and were so loving to my pup. They provided exceptional care and the wait was not long. I recommend their office to anyone looking for pet care!!

Update: Gorgeous new building with a convenient location, right across Yturria Elementary. Dr. Wooding has done amazing work on several of my pets that have gotten sick, she is great! Posting pictures of new location. Highly recommend. **Friday - Tuesday 10 am-6 pm: walk-in, vaccination/preventative services available** Dr. Wooding is an excellent vet, she has taken care of my dogs while working under a different company, and am glad to see she has now opened her own practice. I took my kitten to WeekendVet for an eye injury/infection, was able to get a same day appt due to a last minute cancellation. Upon arrival we were taken into a private room within five minutes and seen shortly after. Convenient location, close to home, will be switching to this vet permanently.

Went for the first time this past Friday to euthanize my 14 year old, suffering fur baby. Dr. Wooding oversaw the process and made it a bit more bearable. The facilities are all new and extremely clean. I will be taking all my fur babies here from now on.
