❗❗ Unfortunately, we did not have power the last 18 or so hours. When the power was knocked out it also knocked out our network and we were unable to get into our software to see scheduled appointments & client contact information. We are just now able to get back in. We are NOT able to see appointments today. If your pet had an appointment today we will be contacting you to get that rescheduled as soon as possible - please check your voicemail! Stay safe, all!

VCA has dropped a new CareClub plan! $20/month or $240/year will cover...
- all exam fees
- microchip placement & membership fee with HomeAgain
- 24/7 access to live chat with an LVT (you can also get this free of cost with the MyVCA App!)
This is a great option if your pet is chronically ill or seems to want to visit us quite often. A sick exam fee is *currently* $101.50; 2 out of pocket sick exams will equal almost as much as the above 12 month contract. This plan exists to assist with access to care for all pets 💛 With the state of the economy and inflation we cannot lower our exam fees BUT we can offer this as an alternative!
These plans are non-transferrable to other pets & other hospitals and are non-cancellable. If for some reason the plan must be cancelled there may be a settlement fee for services used but not yet paid for by the monthly/yearly payment. Speak with one of CSRs today with any of your questions! 269-327-3459 or drop a comment below!

Guess who's in charge of treating fleas in your home? Your pet! If you are finding fleas in your home, be sure your pet is on a reputable flea and tick prevention (give us a call if you aren't sure, we love questions!). Allowing your pet access to all parts of your home, while on flea and tick prevention, allows the fleas to find their host - your pet (they typically will not feed on humans) and die when they come into contact with the flea and tick prevention. Fleas can remain dormant for months if they do not have the proper opportunity to find a host. It can take up to 6 months to treat fleas in home; be patient & keep your pets (all of them!!) on their flea and tick medication.
Be sure to vacuum very regularly & dispose of contents outside of the home in a closed trash bag! Not sure if you're missing a step or what to do? Give us a shout! 👍 269-327-3459.
Have a great weekend, everyone! Enjoy the warm weather, even with the rain! ☔
