CareCredit: Flexible Financing for Veterinary Care

For pets who need more extensive treatment—such as surgery, advanced diagnostics, or ongoing medical care—CareCredit can be a helpful way to manage larger or unexpected veterinary expenses.

At Santa Clarita Animal Urgent Care & Wellness Center, we:

  • Accept CareCredit for eligible services
  • Use clinic-specific CareCredit links and tools for streamlined processing
  • Can help you use CareCredit for urgent care, surgery, dental care, imaging, and more (subject to CareCredit’s terms and approval)

If you do not already have a CareCredit account, you can apply online from home or ask our team for guidance. Many clients receive a fast decision, which can be especially helpful in urgent or emergency situations.

Pet Insurance Support

Pet insurance can help make emergency and urgent veterinary care more affordable over your pet’s lifetime.

While policy details vary by provider, in most cases:

  • You pay your invoice with one of our accepted payment methods
  • Your insurance company reimburses you directly after you submit your claim

We are happy to:

  • Provide detailed invoices and medical records for your claim
  • Help you understand the information your insurer may need
  • Work with you to ensure documentation is clear and complete

If you are considering pet insurance or already have a policy, bringing your policy details (or app) with you can be helpful during your visit.

Helping You Plan for Your Pet’s Care

We understand that every family’s budget is different, especially when an unexpected illness or injury occurs. Our team is committed to:

  • Explaining treatment options clearly
  • Providing estimates before proceeding whenever possible
  • Prioritizing care to address what is most urgent for your pet’s health and comfort

If cost is a concern, please let us know. We will do our best to work within your means while still advocating for the care your pet needs.
