In Cool Weather  – You may leave Pets in the car

If you have a wellness, sick or injury appointment, when the weather permits, please leave your pets in the car until you are checked in.  Our lobby is not large, and this avoids the possibility of dogs becoming aggressive towards each other.

Cats in Carriers for all appointments

Cats must be brought in individual, secure carriers.  One cat per carrier.  If you don’t have a carrier, please let us know.  We might be able to loan you one.  Do not bring your cat in your arms or an unsecure carrier. Cats become very scared in unfamiliar surroundings and will bolt from your arms, regardless of how tame they normally are.

Financial Assistance

If you cannot afford to have your pet' vet care, please call us.  We will try to help.  For more information, see “Financial Assistance”.

Why do we Require Pre-Payment when you sign up?

In order to keep prices low, we ask that everyone pay when they schedule an appointment..

What Happens if I Don’t Come

We do not give refunds for cancellations or no shows. We do not reschedule appointments.  This is necessary so that we can fill all of our appointments each day so that we can  keep our prices low.
