Shores Animal Hospital Financing

Payment Options

Call us with any questions about financing and accepted forms of payment. We do not want concerns about payment to prevent you from providing your pet with needed veterinary care.

Military Discounts

Client Referrals

We appreciate recommendations to other Gainesville pet owners - each referral of a new client is a $10 credit on your account!

Pet Wellness Plans

Save money and provide yourself with peace of mind. Make quality healthcare affordable for your pet with Pet Wellness Plans from Shores Animal Hospital. Learn more about this opportunity to budget for your pet's medical bills.

Insurance

Another option is pet insurance like Veterinary Pet Insurance (VPI), ASPCA or Trupanion. Pet insurance premiums are typically paid on a monthly basis and can be used to help offset some of your pet’s treatment costs. These are reimbursement plans, and they vary as to what they cover.

CareCredit

We realize pet medical bills might not be in your budget and encourage our clients to take advantage of CareCredit financing rather than forego treatment when your pet needs it the most. CareCredit is a healthcare credit card designed to help you pay for your pet’s health and wellness over time without having to pay for everything all at once.

Dr. Shores Lifetime Achievement Veterinary Care Fund

Shores Animal Hospital created a charitable fund to offer grants to clients and non-profit organizations in Gainesville who need financial assistance to provide our life-saving veterinary care for their pets.

Pet owners find themselves financially unprepared to do what is needed to save their pet after an accident or during emergencies and face difficult decisions if they cannot afford treatment.

Shores Animal Hospital does not want clients to have to make that decision based solely on the stress of financial payment. Inspired to help less fortunate owners afford emergency pet care, we’ve established “The Dr. Stephen Shores Lifetime Achievement Veterinary Care Fund” with the Veterinary Care Foundation.
