We are NO LONGER accepting non-urgent routine Spay/Neuter appointments for the public until further notice. For urgent or emergency appointments, please contact your local emergency veterinary hospital.
We DO NOT offer appointments over the phone.
Public Appointment Pet Requirements:
Your pet must be healthy & meet our vaccine requirements in order to be scheduled for a spay/neuter appointment. We follow the AAHA Guidelines ([Canine] or [Feline]) for vaccination.
All pets must be healthy & have valid and current vaccines (including rabies vaccine) on the date of their surgery. Otherwise, if your pet is deemed not healthy by our veterinarians or doesn’t not meet our vaccine requirements there will be a deferral fee of $40. Due to high demand of spay/neuter services, we are not providing any wellness or vaccine clinic services at this time. Please reach out to a local primary care veterinarian for these services.
Prices are listed on our website. Note coming soon, there is a price increase scheduled in the near future. Once official all appointments schedule for the effective date and onwards will be subjected to the price increase regardless of when the appointment was booked. Again, appointments will be a first-come first-serve basis.
