Financing Options
We do not offer in-house payment plans, but we accept two trusted financing options that let you spread out the cost of your pet’s care:
CareCredit
A healthcare credit card that covers your pet’s care up front. Our hospital participates in the 6-month no-interest option on purchases over $200 when you make the minimum monthly payments and pay the balance in full before the promotional period ends.
Scratch Pay
A simple payment-plan solution with high approval rates, no hidden fees, and no deferred interest. Checking your options does not affect your credit score.
Pet Insurance
Wellness visits, emergencies, and urgent care can add up, and pet insurance can give you peace of mind that help is available when you need it. Plans vary and may not cover every expense, so it is worth comparing options to find the right fit for your pet and your budget. We recommend starting with Pawlicy Advisor to compare plans.
Financial Assistance
We understand that caring for a pet is a real commitment. For families who need extra support, we have compiled a list of financial assistance resources to help you provide the care your pet deserves.
