• There is a fee to fill a prescription quicker than 24 hours. We do no recommend walking in, as we cannnot guarantee an immediate refill.

• There is a prescription preparation fee for cutting over 15 tablets or preparing liquid medication in over 5 syringes.

• We can special order medication for your pet and payment is due when the order is placed.

• We hold prescriptions for 2 weeks. Any medication left for longer than 2 weeks will be restocked. You will need to restart the prescription request process and you could experience at least a 24 hour-wait to have the medication made up again.

• Clean-Up Fees: $7 - $35 We walk patients at least 3 times per day. However,  despite our efforts, some pets make messes that require multiple staff and/or extensive time and effort to clean up. This fee covers the staff time and extra cleaning supplies.

However, sometimes owners wish that we proceed when pets do not wish to be handled for a procedure. In these instances, we will charge a fee to cover additional staff and time.
