We offer annual vaccinations, routine wellness and yearly checkups, regular dental cleanings and nail trims.

WHY ARE MY PET’S DOCTOR AND STAFF SO BUSY?

More Pet Patients Per Veterinarian Many more pets found new homes during the pandemic. And a lot of pets need extra “catch-up care” they missed over the past two years.

Less Staff Availability Currently, there is a nationwide staffing shortage of pet health care professionals. SPCA Tampa Bay actively recruits and trains people who are interested in Veterinary Medicine. Our team is working diligently to ensure that we have adequate doctors and trained support staff to meet our community’s needs.

What Has Stayed the Same SPCA Tampa Bay Veterinary Center is committed to providing the highest quality care to your beloved pets. Our staff is eager to passionately collaborate with our patients’ humans!

Here’s How You Can Help Us Help You And Your Pet Please schedule routine exams and procedures in advance. If we can’t fit you in we may refer you to a pet clinic we trust.

Please treat our staff with kindness, patience and understanding.

Thank you and we appreciate your cooperation!

Financial Pet Health Assistance Information

PAYMENT PLAN OPTIONS

When unexpected veterinary costs arise, we want to help keep pets in homes by offering you several creative payment solutions.

CareCredit is an alternative payment option that helps you pay for out-of-pocket expenses by extending special financing options to you that you can’t get when using your Visa or Mastercard. CareCredit allows you to make smaller reoccurring payments without interest – this gives you more flexibility than having to pay a large lump sum for services.

Scratch Pay is a payment system that offers 0-12 month repayment plans for as little as 5.9% APR. This simple, two minute application process can make the high cost of pet care more manageable. We got you and your pet covered.

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE FOR LOW INCOME FAMILIES

SPCA Tampa Bay Veterinary Center is proud to offer the Caldwell Keeping Families Together Fund. This income-verified discount program is available to low income families that are not eligible for CareCredit or Scratch Pay. This fund is supported by generous donors in the community that want to help keep pets in homes. Items not eligible for discount are medications, food and vaccines. If you would like to donate toward this fund to help keep families together, click here.

Emergency Transportation for Pets & Animals

For Your Pet

When cats, dogs and companion animals get sick or accidentally injured, it’s challenging to get them to medical treatment. As a for-all shelter our goal is to offer as many of our standard services as possible at our animal clinic in St. Pete.

In March 2020, our transportation services for your companion animal to be picked up by our staff and travel to its regular veterinarian or an emergency veterinary clinic for medical care was suspended. These steps will help us protect the community and our staff from the potential spread of COVID-19.

If you need immediate assistance or questions please call 727-586-3592.

For Sick, Owned Pets

For information regarding sick or injured stray animals please visit our lost and found page or call 727-586-3592.
