A new mobile veterinary clinic called Pet Health Express will begin serving unincorporated areas of San Diego County, aiming to increase access to affordable pet care, county officials announced.
Operated by San Diego County Animal Services, the mobile unit will provide low-cost high-quality services such as spay and neuter surgeries, vaccinations and microchipping. No appointments are necessary, and walk-ins are welcome Tuesday through Sunday from 9:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
“Pet Health Express represents our commitment to breaking down barriers to veterinary care,” said Vaughn Maurice, Director of San Diego County Animal Services. “By meeting pet owners where they are, we’re helping ensure healthier pets, safer neighborhoods and more compassionate communities.”
Vaccinations will be available for $20 and include rabies, DAPP and Bordetella for dogs, FVRCP for cats and RHDV2 for rabbits. These vaccines help protect pets from contagious and potentially fatal diseases. Microchipping services will also be available to assist in returning lost pets with their families.
The same services are offered at the County’s Bonita and Carlsbad shelter locations.
A full schedule of the Pet Health Express’s community visits is expected to be released soon. For more information, visit www.sddac.com.
