How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Otterdale Pet Wellness Center

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.

So many bad experiences here … not compassionate or sympathetic. Front desk is awful … don’t acknowledge you when you arrive … and it is a small space so you are obviously noticed, but not acknowledged. Last time I tried to make an appt, I was referred to another vet. Luckily … the other vet was hugely compassionate and worked us in … probably saving my pups life.

After moving to this side of town about two years ago I started taking my dogs here. As someone that is highly invested and emotional attached to my babies I personally like a veterinarian that gives it to me straight while giving me a minute to collect myself if my doggos do have something wrong with them. (Literally an ear infection can send me into tears 😂😭) They have always explained all options that I have and what benefits each one has. The tech/front end person that I have dealt with is very knowledgeable, helpful and nice. A few days ago, I came in highly anxious with my new sick pup. She put me at ease just by answering all my nervous questions. I recommend this office.

Very pleased with my visit for my sick dog. He developed an infection that presented over the weekend. I couldn't find care for him, not even the emergency vets that I was instructed to call. They were swamped. His own vet couldn't see him Monday am. Tried several others. Nope. Otterdale had me in within an hour. They were very kind and wonderful with my little old man chihuahua. They fixed him up, gave us some meds, and we were on our way in a short time with money still in the bank. Best part, they are across the street. Who knew!?!? Well, we have a new vet. Thank you Dr. V and staff. Little Larry (and mom) are feeling better after our visit.

Great from making appointment to examination. Phone was answered with no waiting on hold and appointment date and time were within a few days. Staff was friendly. The veterinarian was very nice and listened to my concerns. He also made my little dog comfortable which is hard to do. Overall we both had a stress free experience.

This my first time at this particular office. I was impressed with the office and the staff. Everyone took really good care of my dog and the staff were kind and courteous. Dr. Valentine explored all our options for our aging dog and took the time to answer all my questions. I can tell all the staff really care about the animals that they treat.
