Request your appointment by completing the online form below. This is an appointment request, not a guarantee. When your request has been accepted, you'll receive a confirmation email. If you haven't received a confirmation email, your pet’s appointment hasn't been confirmed. Payment is required at the time of scheduling.

Before paying, be sure to schedule your appointment first. Your appointment request will only be accepted if payment is also made at the time of the request. The email address used to make payment should be the same as the email used in the appointment request. Pay for your appointment now.

You will receive an email confirming your payment was processed.

Don't feed your pet any food or treats after midnight the night before surgery. Your pet may still drink water.

Arrive at the surgery location by 8 a.m. Staff will not admit clients into the building before 8 a.m. The owner of the pet needs to drop off the pet in order to sign the proper consent and provide a medical history.

• Your Pet—Bring your cat in a carrier (one cat per carrier) and your dog on a non-retractable leash.

• Medical Records—Bring any medical records and our veterinary staff will determine which vaccinations your pet can receive as part of our program. If you don’t have prior medical records for your pet, that’s okay. Your pet will receive a complete physical exam and the full Healthy Pet Package. Note: A complete rabies certificate is required for proof of prior vaccination and receipts or invoices are not considered proper verification of rabies vaccination.

All pets are discharged to their owners the same day as surgery. Exact pick up times will be assigned in the morning at drop-off but will not be before 3 p.m. If you're unable to pick up your pet from the surgical center at the specified time, he or she will be transferred to our main location in Baldwin. You will be required to redeem your pet from the shelter.

You'll be sent home with detailed care instructions. To give you an idea of what to expect, review the home-care instructions.
