“I love the [Optimum Wellness Plan] so much. It truly pays for itself after a couple visits.”

- Bethany N.

“They truly go above and beyond here! I highly recommend.”

Not insurance — it’s an Optimum Wellness Plan

Your dog’s OWP helps to make petcare easier with a smart package of preventive petcare services. With insurance, you pay a premium and hope your pet’s services are reimbursed. With an OWP, you pay in monthly or yearly installments for the package of services included in your pet’s OWP, each designed to deliver routinely-recommended preventive care like vaccines, physical exams, and more.
