Maintaining your pet’s health is a crucial part of responsible pet ownership, and vaccinations play a vital role in preventative care. At our Pet Vaccination Clinic, we are dedicated to providing accessible and affordable protection for your beloved companions. Whether you have a playful puppy, a curious kitten, or a senior pet, ensuring they are vaccinated is one of the best steps you can take to safeguard them from preventable diseases.
Convenient Walk-In Clinic for Pet Vaccinations
We understand that life can be busy, which is why we offer a convenient walk-in pet vaccination clinic Monday through Friday from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM. No appointments are necessary during these hours, making it easier than ever to protect your pet.
Please note: Due to the popularity of our walk-in clinic, wait times can sometimes exceed 2 hours. We appreciate your patience as we strive to provide quality care to every pet.
For those who prefer a scheduled appointment or require vaccinations outside of our walk-in hours, technician appointments are available. A $20 appointment fee applies in addition to the cost of the vaccines. Please call or text us to schedule a vaccine appointment, noting that these appointments are limited and not available during walk-in clinic hours.
Core Vaccinations for Dogs
Protect your canine companion with our comprehensive range of dog vaccinations. Starting vaccinations early is key, with puppy vaccinations beginning as early as 8 weeks old.
Essential Canine Vaccines
- Rabies Vaccine ($60): Legally mandated for dogs 14 weeks and older, the rabies vaccine is crucial for protecting both your pet and the community from this deadly virus.
- DHPP Vaccine (Distemper/Parvo) ($60): This core vaccine protects against several serious diseases, including Distemper, Adenovirus, Parvovirus, and Parainfluenza. For puppies, we highly recommend a series of 5 DHPP vaccines, administered every 3 weeks until the series is complete. Important: To protect your puppy from Parvo and other viruses, please avoid taking them to public places until they have finished their entire vaccination series. We also offer a one-year DHPP booster for adult dogs at the same price of $60.
- Leptospirosis Vaccine ($60): Leptospirosis is a bacterial disease that can be transmitted through contaminated water and soil. This vaccine requires an initial series of two vaccines given 3 weeks apart, followed by annual boosters.
Recommended Canine Vaccines
- Bordetella Vaccine ($75): Often referred to as the “kennel cough” vaccine, Bordetella is highly recommended for dogs that socialize with other dogs in environments such as daycare, boarding facilities, grooming salons, and dog parks.
- Canine Influenza Vaccine ($60): Protect your dog from canine influenza, a contagious respiratory virus, especially if they are frequently in contact with other dogs in social settings.
Dog Licensing: Remember to register your dog for a license within 30 days of receiving the Rabies vaccine.

Core Vaccinations for Cats
Ensure your feline friend is protected with our essential cat vaccinations. Kitten vaccinations can begin as early as 8 weeks of age.
Essential Feline Vaccines
- Rabies Vaccine ($60): Similar to dogs, rabies vaccination is crucial for cats 14 weeks and older to prevent this fatal disease.
- FVRCP Vaccine (Feline Distemper) ($60): This combination vaccine protects against Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis, Calicivirus, and Panleukopenia. We recommend a series of 4 FVRCP vaccines for kittens, administered every 3 weeks until the series is complete.
- FELV Vaccine (Feline Leukemia) ($75): Feline Leukemia Virus is a serious condition, and vaccination is highly recommended, especially for young kittens under 2 years old and outdoor cats who are at higher risk of exposure.
Microchipping Services
Beyond vaccinations, microchipping is another vital step in responsible pet ownership. For just $60, we offer microchipping services using Save This Life microchips. These microchips are about the size of a grain of rice and are implanted under your pet’s skin, between the shoulder blades. Each microchip contains a unique ID number to help reunite you with your pet if they are ever lost or stolen.
While collars and ID tags are important, microchips offer permanent identification that cannot be lost or removed. Remember to keep your contact information updated with the microchip registry to ensure you can be reached if your pet is found. If your pet is already microchipped, please inform us so we can add their microchip number to our system and complete their profile.

- Credelio: A monthly flea medication for both cats and dogs.
- Bravecto: A 90-day flea medication for cats and dogs offering long-lasting protection.
