How to Save Money at HousePaws Mobile Veterinary Service of Atco

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 brought Levi in for oral surgery. Dr Ben did a great job. He was very informative and professional. He really cared about making sure that the outcome of Levi’s surgery would be a success!!! I have taken Levi to Dr Lisa whom I have known for a long time and Dr Matt who loves animals!! They were both great too!! Thank you guys .. Gina Holshue

Housepaws helped my family and I with end of life for our sweet girl. They handled her with such care and helped my family with the transition. They come out as soon as they can and always call back a few days later to see how you are doing. They truly are the sweetest doctors and have great staff. I feel so lucky that cookies last moments with us were peaceful and comfortable. Thank you!

Hi wanted to share our amazing experience with HousePaws, start of by saying my dog is 158lb cané corso and after a terrible experience at a local vet our boy wouldn't go and when he did he would get aggressive. After doing some research my wife called HousePaws. They came out to check(paw was hurt) on him and Dr.Matt and Cory were amazing with him. Took some time to get to know him before diagnosing our boy. Because of the time they took to get friendly with him, our boy actually let Dr.Matt touch his paw. Ik sounds like no biggie but for our dog it's huge. They got it figured out and meds for him and will be checking up on him next week. Just wanted to share how they took care of our guy . They will be our regular vet from here on out. Would highly recommend using them! Thanks Dr. Matt and Cory! You guys are awesome.

I normally don't do in-depth reviews, however, my recent experience(s) requires one. I am a first time "pocket pet" owner. (two rabbits in a four month span, my first in January and now my second in April around Easter, go figure) This vet office has been nothing but amazing. I can call, email, or text to get in touch with anyone I need to in order to ask a question, change an appointment, make an appointment. It's better than some of my doctors, and I have quite a few. I was there last night for booster shots for both of my buns, and when I say I could see how dedicated the veterinarian is to his practice, just by watching how he cuts the babies nails, myself and the front desk and the technician were both talking about how I got my second bun and while he was paying close attention to what he was doing, he also had an ear out for what we were talking about. He seems like an amazing vet. I have not had anything bad to say about them, and I don't think I will. People need to keep in mind that no matter what profession anyone is in, there will be mistakes made, and there needs to be some sort of leniency when it comes to humans. I know these animals are our babies, but no one is perfect. In my mind, this practice will always have my business. The fact that I have to drive a half hour each way means nothing to me. I know I'm rambling on, but the way my fur babies are treated (the two I have now, and the one I had previously that I brought there once and they treated her like family) shows that they really care.

The Reynolds family: It started out as a decision to call Pet Paws based on location (Atco location) since we were right in Winslow Township. My call was unfortunately a hard one to make, since it was to lay my dog to rest after 15+ years. I would not have been compelled to write a review (good or bad) if the help I received wasn't exceptional. The office staff and ultimately Dr. Matt and Cory who made the house visit were really good. They took their time and were as helpful and considerate as could be given the situation. I was certainly not helpful, pretty much was useless and only did a good job hopefully at comforting Clutch, which is the least I could do considering how much comforting she has done for my kids and wife for so many years. So I'd like to thank everyone at Pet Paws professionally, but beyond that, personally. I'm sure that the love of animals got you to where you are now to some degree. In the case of euthanasia I'm sure bad days can be made worse. I'm determined to make sure you know it isn't "thankless" work and you are not under appreciated. In fact the opposite. I hope this makes the calls and task a little easier my friends, thank you again and wish you all well.
