Spay & Neuter Clinic

Affordable care for Sonoma Valley families.

Spay and neuter services are essential for preventing overpopulation and keeping pets healthy. Our Community Clinic provides deeply subsidized care to ensure families can access this vital service close to home.

A note about our updated pricing

To continue offering this vital service, we are introducing a modest fee for our Community Clinic. Even with this change, our spay and neuter pricing remains approximately 70% lower than the average cost in our region. Our commitment to accessible care remains unchanged.
