How to Save Money at Riverside Pet Care
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.

Tami & Chrissy are amazing receptionists. They were so kind to my dog Teddy and made him feel welcomed when he was nervous! Dr.Davis and the nurse Karla took amazing care of Teddy and made sure he went home with medicine for his stomach troubles. They were very thorough in his examination. I’ve loved this clinic! Scheduling is fast, prices are incredibly fair, and their whole staff truly do care about your pets.

This vet clinic is awesome! We have a new puppy and have used them for all his care so far. They’ve helped us with behavior challenges, answered all our questions, and been very thorough making sure our boy is healthy. The staff is always super friendly, and we’ve not had any trouble getting appointments. Highly recommend!

We have 3 small dogs & two were behind in vaccines. We brought all three in at one time. We didn't have to wait more than a few days to be seen. It was a very clean business. Everyone was very kind & we felt like they took time with us & our dogs. The only reason it was not rated 5 stars was because we did have to wait for about 20 mins or so to be put in a room, but it was really worth the wait. Dr. Davis was very kind and made sure we had all questions answered. We will be staying with them for sure!!

I can't say enough good things about this animal clinic. I followed Dr. K from his previous office, which says a LOT due to the fact that it is a 45 minute drive. When you find the best vet you stick with them. All the staff was friendly knowledgeable and positive. They worked hard to get my dog in and were very understanding when a snow storm prevented me from making my drop off appointment and got me rescheduled right away. Thank you all for being so amazing.

Dr. K is a God with all animals! He is so good to my Poppy and helps me take really good care of her! He is often right there kneeling on the floor with her while doing his check up and Poppy loves all the attention and pets he gives her! His staff is very professional, kind, and just as loving towards my pup as he is! Love this clinic!! You’re doing yourself and your pet a MAJOR favor by going to see them!!
