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.

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.

I was originally not going to write about my experience however, it seems to affect me and my puppy more and more as time goes by. We visited this location on Sat. Feb 3rd, 2024. My boyfriend and I and our two dogs (a 3yo chocolate lab & 2.5mo chihuahua mix puppy). Our original purpose for the visit was to pick up more food for the puppy and to let the puppy socialize with other humans and dogs. We were minimally letting him walk on his own in his harness and leash. He had tried to play with a few of the puppies we came in contact with and loved visiting all the other humans who stopped to greet us. A few staff had stopped and positively conversated with us about him, his size, breed, etc. We were then rudely interrupted and confronted by the location vet asking what vaccinations our puppy has had. Before I could answer we were told to immediately pick him up and to not let him walk around. We did just that and walked right out the door and will not be returning to that location or recommending it. In the meantime I did check with our vet and asked about this experience, they were not worried about him contracting anything nor seemed concerned for him visiting pet stores without ALL vaccinations. Fast forward to now, he is 4 months and absolutely terrified and reactive to other dogs while also being hesitant to unknown humans. I was scared to bring him any public area due to this so he was not in contact with other dogs since this interaction. I wish we would have been informed and educated in a respectful conversation so we would have learned how to be able to socialize safely!!

Save yourself and your pets the agony of this experience. You will be wrestling your dogs, you will be muzzling if needed, you will be lifting to weigh them. They are there the give the vaccines and you are there to do everything else. This location has no real line, no signs, no direction. It’s just the worse experience I’ve ever had.
