Wellness plans are a great way to save on your annual visits. We have various plan options, depending on your budget and the stage of your pet’s life.

Wellness plans also complement most types of pet insurance. Please ask us for more information.

Insurance Options

Pet insurance works well in cases of injury and illness. Pet insurance premiums are typically paid on a monthly basis and can be used to help offset some of your pet’s treatment costs.

When using pet insurance, payment is due when services are rendered and then your insurance company will reimburse you if applicable.

If you're looking for a pet insurance provider, we suggest checking out Trupanion, ASPCA Pet Insurance, Nationwide Pet Insurance, PetPlan, or Pawlicy Advisor.

CareCredit

CareCredit is a healthcare credit card designed to help you pay for your pet’s health and wellness over time instead of having to pay for everything all at once.

Your CareCredit card can be used for a variety of veterinary procedures, including:

  • Exams
  • Spay and neutering
  • Dental cleaning
  • Parasite control and prevention
  • Medication
  • Vaccinations
  • Surgical procedures
  • And more

"An outstanding group of folks who took excellent care of my beloved dog. I am beyond grateful for the time and care they provided for my Charlie (a 2 year old Pit bull) especially after I had a really disappointing experience with another vet in town. His previous vet admitted (after two unsuccessful visits for his ear infection and a lot of money wasted) to being prejudice against Charlie's breed and therefore didn't offer proper care. That meant my Charlie suffered from this ear ache two weeks too long.Ottawa Animal Hospital West didn't even show a moment of hesitation when I requested Charlie become a new patient there and told them his breed. In fact the woman who set up the appointment for us was already expressing joy about his breed and how much she adores them. What a relief! From the moment we arrived they never disappointed and were gracious, informative, and warm. I really believe they went above and beyond both getting to know him and earning his trust by also letting him get to know them too. FINALLY a Vet that will treat my Charlie like the tender hearted, smart, sweet, fun and friend loving dog he is. Thank you so much! Charlie is my baby and it makes my heart happy as well as gives me much needed peace knowing Charlie finally has a great Vet now who we can trust will respect and appreciate him. I know for sure he will continue to receive proper veterinary care and keep that goofy grin on his adorable face.Sincerely, Charlie's Mom Sheri"
