What Pet Families Say

My dog, Boston, received a cleaning and his teeth were safely extracted. Their team is terrific! I’m so grateful to C.A.R.E.4Paws for providing my Boston with affordable dental care.

Jacob

C.A.R.E.4Paws has helped all five of my cats, from their first vaccines to spay/neuter surgeries. They are so patient and caring with my babies. I can’t thank them enough for the love and support they give to our community.

Cellee

I appreciate the staff and the savings so very much. Kudos to a job well done for providing much-needed quality services to our communities at a discounted price.

Michele

Thank you to all who graciously supported Harley’s lifesaving bladder-stone operation. As a senior, Harley is my family, and she is now doing well and keeps me moving.

Sal

Thank you for taking care of our baby Rocko and offering pet wellness services to the community’s fur babies!

Liliana

I have been taking my cat, Riff, to your Oceano clinic for vaccines, flea treatment and vet visits to check his stomach and neurological issues. Thanks to your PetSmart Charities grant, it relieves the pressure of costly vet visits.

Bryan

When my cat, Butterscotch, suffered severe spinal and leg injuries from a dog bite, C.A.R.E.4Paws stepped in to help. There’s no way I could’ve provided him with the care he needed without their help!

Dolores

C.A.R.E.4Paws is a great outlet for those who aren’t able to pay those extreme bills. My dog, Tru, was able to get all his vaccines and neutered at a cost I could afford.

Emily

As a senior, being able to afford my senior dog’s care makes all the difference. Thank you so much for supporting pet families in need with compassionate care on wheels.

Kurt

Without C.A.R.E.4Paws’ mobile clinic, I wouldn’t have been able to afford everything my new rescue dog needed. Thank you for your affordable prices!

Dawn

I want to sincerely thank C.A.R.E.4Paws for the exceptional care and support you’ve provided to my kitty, Riot. Your mobile clinic’s affordable services and compassionate approach have truly made a difference in our lives.
