How to Save Money at A Pet's Place of Clearwater

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.

A pet’s place is amazing. I used to go to Belcher animal clinic and when Saint John retired the new practice literally was price gouging. I had very sick kitties and brought them here and they not only charged a reasonable price but they also treated my babies as if my cats are theirs. The love and comfort they showed them was amazing. My one cat who hates everyone was purring even when they were checking a cyst on his paw. I have now recommended family and friends to go here and they are just as happy. Best vet and staff ever!!!! Let’s not forget Shadow the amazing company who waits with you.

I have been bringing my fur babies to Doc & Corinna for over 20 years. A Pet's Place care is always compassionate, competent and kind. I highly recommend them...as would Rajah, Della, Roxy, Jack and Bart!

We love Dr Cowden! He has saved not one but two of my dogs quality of life with surgeries and laser. The staff is kind and patient and truly loves animals. I will forever bring my pet babies to them.

I have been going to A Pets Place for 3 years for both of my dogs. Dr. Dan and his wife and staff are great. I had to put my 16 year old rat terrier down and they had her cremated. When I received her ashes is was very nicely done with a urn I picked out with her name on it in a blue velvet bag, a touching card from his staff with the imprint of her foot. This was so touching. They really care. Meloni M
