Animal Emergency Care accepts all major credit cards, checks with approval through CrossCheck, and cash.
We understand that unexpected emergency visits can cause financial strain, especially since payment is due at the time of service. To ease this impact while ensuring your pet still receives the care they need, we offer a range of third-party flexible payment options that can be tailored to your unique situation.

While pet health insurance is a wonderful option for making veterinary care more affordable, most plans require that you pay the bill and submit invoices for reimbursement. Trupanion, however, offers participating veterinary hospitals the option to be paid directly by Trupanion—so you do not have to pay your entire bill out of pocket, only your deductible and any portion not covered by your plan. Animal Emergency Care participates in this service, and we encourage you to apply for coverage before your family experiences a veterinary emergency.
It is important to know that pet insurance only provides coverage if you have a policy in place before care is needed. So please plan ahead—and do not apply for an insurance policy while en route with a medical emergency because it will not be covered.

By offering these financial options, our aim is to make it easier for you to focus on your pet’s well-being and know their care is within reach. If you have any questions, please contact us. Our team is here to help.
