Quality veterinary care shouldn’t have to wait for payday. As a privately owned walk-in clinic, Sarasota Veterinary Services is more economical than an emergency or urgent care hospital — and when a visit still stretches your budget, you have options.
For payment at the time of your visit, we accept cash, debit cards and all major credit cards.
We also work with three trusted third-party financing companies: CareCredit, Sunbit and Scratchpay. Each one is independent of our practice, so you apply directly with them, they pay us for your pet’s care, and you pay them back over time.
CareCredit
CareCredit is a health and wellness credit card you can use for your pet’s veterinary care — and for your own family’s health and wellness expenses as well. Once you’re approved, it stays open and you can use it again on future visits, so it is a good choice if you want a card in place before you ever need it.

Sunbit
Sunbit splits the cost of your visit into fixed monthly payments, and you apply right here at the practice — just ask a member of our team when you check out. It is built to be quick and forgiving, which makes it a good fit for a walk-in visit you weren’t planning on.

Questions About Paying for Your Pet’s Care?
CareCredit, Sunbit and Scratchpay are all offered by outside companies, and approval, rates and terms are set by them rather than by us. If you’re not sure which option suits you, or you’d like help getting started, give us a call at (941) 216-7886 — se habla español — and our team will walk you through it.
