Pet Care Plan

Routine pet care spread over easy to manage monthly payments

We all want the very best for our pets. However, providing this can be costly, with routine healthcare, food bills, and those little extras you buy that keep your pet happy and healthy.

That’s why we have created the Pet Care Plan. The Pet Care Plan helps you to spread the cost of your pet’s routine preventative healthcare throughout the year, as well as offering additional benefits to save you money.

With a monthly direct debit payment, your pet’s standard vaccinations, worming and flea treatments (fly strike for rabbits) are all taken care of. Additionally, your pet will benefit from an annual healthy pet check to help you keep them in top condition, as well as offering you a chance to gain valuable veterinary advice.

However, it is important that you don’t confuse our Pet Care Plan with pet insurance.  Pet Insurance is designed to cover veterinary fees if your pet becomes injured or is unwell, whereas the Pet Care Plan only includes the treatments specified below.  To find out more about pet insurance, please take a look at our Guide to Pet Insurance.

You can enrol as many pets as you like on the plan and there is no pet age restriction. You just need to maintain the monthly direct debit payment throughout the contracted term for each pet on the plan.

Terms and Conditions

Your plan membership runs for a minimum term of 12 months, with an automatic renewal on each anniversary date for a further 12-month term, unless notice to cancel has been given 30 days before the renewal/anniversary date.

Monthly prices are not fixed and may be reviewed annually. Your price may therefore change during the 12-month term. We will notify you in advance of any changes to your monthly payments by email, SMS or post. 

We reserve the right to withdraw or replace any of the benefits we provide on the plan without notice and recommend you check our current plan benefits on a regular basis and before each anniversary renewal to ensure the plan still meets your needs. If we do make a change, we will ensure the core benefits will continue to offer value for money over our normal pay as you go prices for the included vaccinations and parasite treatments.

We do not offer any substitutes or refunds should you not use all the benefits included in the plan. We therefore recommend you keep a record of when your annual vaccinations, annual healthy pet check and regular flea and worm treatments are due and make an appointment or arrange collection of these as appropriate.

If your plan is cancelled automatically because of failed direct debit collections, because you cancel your direct debit, or because you request to cancel before your plan anniversary/during a 12-month term, your account will be reviewed and you may be charged the full price for any products and services received during the current plan term, minus any monthly payments you have made during the term.
