How to Save Money at Vet 2 You Veterinary Services
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.

Dr. Grove is the best Vet. I have worked with her for over a decade and my babies health reflects that. I have a 14 year old cat and a 9 year old dog. Both in impeccable health and that would absolutely be because of Dr. Grove. She is a mobile vet which got my anxious kitty and for (her anxious Mother) proven to be super helpful. In the beginning when I adopted her 11 years ago I went to other Vets. Most work like a factory not taking the time and attention Dr. Grove gives. I literally trust no one other than her. She cares for my pets like no other has. My pets conditions have ranged from allergies, weight issues (Cat underweight) (Dog overweight), teeth issues, infections from underlying allergies etc. She has literally resolved them all. Even if she refers me to another doctor (like a dentist or a hospital) it’s only the best. You can tell the difference. There are not enough thanks yous I can give Dr. Groves expertise, and her bedside manner. My Pets are my children. So I take anyone that cares for them seriously.

Dr Grove is one of the most sincere and caring veterinarian I've ever come across. She has always treated my kiddo as her own, with the same love, care and attention. My dog was raised in a different state and as soon as we moved to San Diego he started having multiple health issues due to local allergens in addition to the orthopedic issues that started compounding. Dr Grove came up with a practical step-by-step approach for how address each of the health concerns, took the time to explain everything and proactively did regular follow-ups on his well being. During covid, when emergency rooms were shut down or barely open and my dog needed urgent medical attention, she would always try and make time in her busy schedule, at times going completely out of her way to treat him. Moreover with her being mobile, it brought medical care to my doorstep, avoiding putting my dog through the stress of travelling or going into a vet clinic. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a great vet !

We love Dr Grove, she comes to visit us at home so we don't have to visit the scary doctors with dogs in the waiting room. Sierra, Boxie and Frankie.

Dr. Grove has been my mobile vet for years. She has treated my two senior cats with the utmost love and care. My oldest, Max, passed in December 2019 and she was there for me when he needed to cross the rainbow bridge. She's kind, compassionate, and very professional. My kitties have benefitted from having her in their lives.

Dr. Grove is hands down the bet veterinarian I have ever encountered! She is punctual, communicative, reasonably priced, and most importantly patient and strategic when working with vet-anxious pups. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!
