Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a vet visit cost in Nanaimo?

A routine wellness exam costs $60-$100. Vaccinations are $25-$50 each. Spay/neuter surgery ranges from $200-$500. Emergency visits start at $150-$300 just for the exam, with treatment costs on top.

How often should I take my pet to the vet?

Healthy adult pets should go annually. Puppies and kittens need visits every 3-4 weeks until 16 weeks old for vaccinations. Senior pets (7+) benefit from twice-yearly checkups to catch age-related issues early.

Does pet insurance cover vet visits?

Most pet insurance covers accidents and illness but not routine wellness exams. Some plans offer wellness add-ons. Pet insurance typically costs $30-$70/month for dogs and $20-$40/month for cats. It's most cost-effective when purchased young.

What should I do in a pet emergency?

Call your vet first — many have after-hours instructions. If your vet is closed, go to the nearest 24/7 emergency animal hospital. Keep the Pet Poison Helpline number saved: 1-855-764-7661. Don't wait if your pet is struggling to breathe, bleeding heavily, or had a seizure.

Can I switch vets easily?

Yes. You can request your pet's medical records be transferred to a new vet. Most clinics will send records within a few days. There's no obligation to stay with a vet — finding the right fit for you and your pet matters.
