$380 Friday thru Monday, Early Mornings (before 8:30 am) and Early Evenings (after 3:30 pm). *

  • paw print in display case

* See below for travel fees and body aftercare options (continue scrolling down).

*Additional charges may apply for aggressive animals, certain exotic species, pets over 99 lbs., holidays (and associated holiday weekends).

*Due to high demand and challenges in scheduling, if a cancellation occurs within 4 hours of the appointment, a $100 fee will be charged and collected prior to rescheduling.

*For appointments outside our coverage area, availability is very limited.  Due to extended travel times and the need to make accommodations surrounding other appointments, we do require a nonrefundable booking fee at the time of scheduling.  This $160 fee would be applied to the total visit charge.  Should there be a cancellation for whatever reason, we would refund all but the booking fee.

Travel charges are determined by the zone to which the veterinarian must travel. Please review our zone map below and click on your location.
