How to Save Money at Petco Vaccination Clinic
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.

I've never in my life met an employee as disrespectful and rude as the one we dealt with today. God forbid you interrupt their conversation and ask a question. You will get sarcasm and eye roll and just shrugged off. I will NEVER be shopping here again. Shame on you Petco for hiring individuals who could careless about animals or their place of work.

I will never use this service again. The 2 companies do not talk to each other. (Petco and Vetco) This all started for me on 12/29/20 I paid for shots and chip. They said I had to split the visit and come back for the remainder of her shots. I came back 2 weeks later walk in and the clinic is not there they canceled I got no call. So I call customer service they have no knowledge of cancelations why or when. So I went online the next appt date was booked. So I booked the next date after that which was 2/8. Here i am again no vetco they canceled last minute petco employee said. I call customer service again spoke to supervisor Darrell that says all he can do is apologize. They have no access to schedule cancels. So let me get this straight petco doesn't know and has no answers for the customers they direct you to vetco customer service. You call Vetco and they do not know and have zero communication with the vetco employees that go out on these routes .so who suffers the patients and the customers. Going on 3 months my dog hasn't gotten shots. Requested a full refund and I will never use them again. Appalled by how I was treated as a customer by bothering Petco and Vetco. Terrible service I feel like I was robbed. Update i can't even get my money back for 1 to 2 weeks via check in the mailbox. This is ridiculous.
