How to Save Money at Bird & Pet Clinic of Roseville

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.

Getting 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.

Brought my reticulated python in for a scab on his head. Thankfully it came off during shed the day before our appointment. Came in anyway just for a wellness visit. Staff was friendly, jovial, and very kind. The doctor was passionate, knowledgeable and very excited to meet our snake, Baked Bean. Will bring all of our exotics here from now on.

Our experience with this vet hasn't been ideal. One of our kittens was very sick, we were almost going to put her down. We did the emergency service and paid for a kitten care package. They wouldn't give her a shot because she wasn't breathing well which was understandable. We had an early scheduled appointment and we called them saying she is still in the same condition as the first time, and I didn't want to take her in for them to say they didn't want to give her a shot again which took away from one visit on the package that we prepaid for. They said bring her in anyways. So, we did, and they did not give her the shots which was frustrating as I knew that was going to happen. They also charged me $50 for an office visit (I will never prepay for a shot package again). We ended up taking her to UC Davis and found out it was something this Vet missed in the emergency exams. I asked for a discount on an email to them and received no response from them. They feel like a money grab place who isn't interested in making things right. I'm pretty sure the employees at this facility would be irritated if they were treated like this with their pets at another facility.

Skip the worry of finding a good clinic and just come here. The entire staff is very attentive to their patients and works to find suitable care for whatever your budget might be. I don't know how they do it but my cat is far less terrified to come here than any other clinic we've used. I plan to come here for all future pets!

All staff was extremely kind, helpful, and knowledgeable. I've had bad experiences in the past regarding care for my rabbit but this vet was exceptional. The vet techs and the doctor were very knowledgeable about rabbits and took extra time to answer any questions I had. Always quick to answer the phone and keep me updated on test results.

When no other clinic would take me in on an emergency basis, this clinic did and I couldn’t be more grateful. My bunny’s health is my priority and knowing that this clinic cares unlike others has converted me to receiving care from only them. All medical care is expensive but having 4 exotic vets on site means more availability and flexibility when you need it most, so it’s worth every penny. Thank you for your all your hard work docs and front desk attendants! 💙🐰
