How to Save Money at Companion Paws Mobile Vet Services
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.

We had a 22 year old cat who's sister was the same age and had been lifetime companions. A week prior, the sister cat had died. By herself, our sweet "Lula" was also suffering from old age, had extreme difficulty walking and had a fungal infection. She was now alone and my wife and I spend many hours trying to comfort her. Within a couple of days, she stopped pooping, limited urinating, didn't want water and would only eat a little baby food. We knew she was unhappy and wanted to avoid a crisis. We called out local vet, Clevenger's Corner Veterinary Hospital and they would not be able to assist us with an in-home euthanasia for over a week's time. We called Companion Paws Mobile Vet Services and left a message. They returned the call and were very kind and helpful. Upon arrival the care, understanding, demeanor, and patience, was WONDERFUL! The procedure was easy, caring, and our Lula purred as she went to sleep. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this veterinary service. A++

Dr. Foster and David were a godsend for me. My 20 year cat Sassy had seizures and could no longer travel by crate for appointments. I was out of their service range but they fit me in to their schedule to do an exam and bloodwork in April to be able to continue Phenibarbitol. They came again in September when it was time to say goodbye and were very compassionate and understanding. Highly recommend them.

Been using Companion Paws for a few years now for our old cats, two of which have kidney issues. Companion Paws meets takes care of all of our needs, including checks and dropping off our ongoing medicine. Dr. Foster is great with the cats, we love the personal service!!! Highly Recommended.

I'm so grateful for Dr. Foster and David for being able to provide their vet services during COVID-19. My family's cat of 17 years had been on her last legs for a while and one Friday, she took an abrupt turn for the worst and we knew it was time. Since our cat got stressed out by going to the vet, I had researched a couple of vets that would do at home euthanasia -- however, none of them were available that day and we didn't want our cat to suffer any longer. We were pointed in the direction of mobile vet services in our area and from there, we found Dr. Foster. Luckily, Dr. Foster was able to schedule an emergency visit to our hosue and was very understanding of our situation and explained the process (COVID-19 considerations and the actual euthanasia) very well. With the help of Dr. Foster and David, our cat passed peacefully and while it was a difficult time for my family, we are grateful that she was able to spend her last moments at home. It is never easy to lose a pet, but there is no doubt in my mind that it was time and the best way to handle it is swiftly and under the best care. Thank you Dr. Foster and David.

Dr. Foster was great with my malevolent cat. Did an excellent exam, calmed him down, and gave him his vaccinations. Will definitely use again.
