We recommend annual check-ups for most pets to ensure they’re healthy and up to date on vaccinations. For senior pets or those with ongoing health concerns, more frequent visits may be necessary. For large animals like cattle or sheep, we suggest routine wellness checks at least once a year, or more often if there are health issues.

The cost of spaying or neutering depends on the size, age, and health of your pet. We strive to offer competitive pricing while maintaining high-quality care. For an accurate estimate, please contact us. Please note that the cost may vary depending on additional factors such as pre-existing health conditions.

Yes, we understand that veterinary care can be a financial commitment. We offer flexible payment options and work with third-party financing options such as zippay. We also recommend considering pet insurance to help cover unexpected costs. For more details, visit our payment options page.

We do accept walk-ins. However, we recommend scheduling an appointment to avoid wait times and ensure we can give your pet the attention they need. Please call ahead if you’re experiencing an urgent situation, so we can prepare for your visit.

Please bring your pet's previous medical records, vaccination history, and any medication they are currently taking. This will help us better understand your pet’s medical history and provide the best care possible. For large animals, please ensure you provide information on any past medical treatments or vaccinations.

Before surgery, we’ll provide specific pre-operative instructions. Generally, your pet should fast for at least 12 hours prior to surgery. For large animals, make sure they’re housed appropriately to reduce stress. If you have any concerns or questions, our team is here to guide you through the preparation process to ensure a safe procedure.

Preventive care is essential for your pet’s health. We recommend annual vaccinations, regular dental cleanings, and parasite prevention treatments (flea, tick, and worm control). For large animals, we suggest vaccinations and wellness exams to prevent disease outbreaks. Contact us for a customized preventive care plan for your pet.
