Vetco Vaccination Clinic

I got in right on time for my appointment. However I had to wait in line to get seen. Plus while checking in I was told that I was going to have to pay. I argued that. I was told on my initial appointment that I would not need to pay for anything on my return trip for boosters and one of the shots we delayed till the booster appointment. I paid because he told me the initial shots would not be effective without them. I signed the visit consent including statement "under protest". I used you all to save money. I'm on fixed income and $103 unexpected cost is huge. I've never had to return for boosters before that I can recall. I'm very unhappy. I would have gone to my local vet. It in the long run would have been cheaper for me by a large margin.

Efficient operation as always. Very helpful staff person took time to explain all my choices of combo vaccines plus deworming options. Then shopped for goodies as a reward for my dog.Thank you, Petco!

Frustrating experience unfortunately- first time taking my own pet to this clinic though I've helped with family bringing their dog in previously and the experience has been positive. I have an almost 5 mo old puppy who needs his rabies vaccine and when I noticed they had a clinic this weekend it was a perfect opportunity to get it done. Did not see anywhere when booking that they will not give rabies vaccine if any other vaccine has been administered in the last 3-4 weeks...which makes getting a puppy vaccinated next to impossible given the standard schedule. I was unable to keep appointment as 5mo pup had gotten a combo vaccine at home within that time. This is unfortunate and a bit frustrating- as a vet office will give a rabies vaccine with other vaccines at the same visit....but I do understand from a liability standpoint. I did not appreciate feeling what I would call a "dismissively pleasant" attitude when I relayed the information that I gave a combo vaccine myself at home. (I am an experienced nurse who has had livestock and pets my entire life- I am fairly qualified to properly vaccinate what I can at home....not that the staff member checking me in was aware.) When I expressed frustration that this 3-4 week poilcy was not anywhere I noted when scheduling, I was told "that is the risk with vaccinating at home- you don't get any medical advice". I told them it is not medical advice I needed, or the home vaccine I was referring to. I would have appreciated not making an extra trip if I had seen a disclosure about THEIR policy. I will definitely not be attempting a return visit and will either use a different mobile service that is less dismissive or just spend the extra cost to get the rabies done at our vet. It is disappointing because this type of interaction could actually discourage a customer/owner from maintaining proper vaccinations. TLDR: Do not schedule if you have had any vaccines for your pet in the last month- they have a policy that is not super apparent at givingg a 3-4 week safety window for reactions. Staff was not inappropriate but did show their ignorance in how they spoke with me. Definitely more frustrating to me given my medical experience both professional and personal.
