***Current COVID 19 Protocol***

To keep our staff and customers safe, we are currently maintaining CURBSIDE visits. This applies to all medication pick-ups, and the majority of veterinary appointments – with only a few exceptions at our discretion – such as euthanasia, or a new client with a pet with an illness.

When you arrive for an appointment, we ask that you call 480.774.6995 upon arrival. You will be asked to wait outside and a technician will come outside to get your pet, take any relevant information, and give you any updates. We will have you pay over the phone. For those few exceptions that are allowed inside, please only one family member per visit with no symptoms of illness, and we require that you wear a mask for the entire visit. No children allowed.

*** Update on COVID-19 Effective 05/10/2021 ***

As of May 10th 2021, we will start allowing our clients to accompany their pets into the building – however, this will be limited to one person per family. You must continue to wear a mask, and would ask that if you have any symptoms of illness, you stay in your car. No children allowed. As our staff (one doctor, five staff members) continue to move through the vaccination protocols in the coming weeks, we may see further relaxed protocols, but that is likely a few months away.

We will still obtain all pertinent visit information via phone, and you will be escorted directly into an examination room. Your pet will be examined in the main treatment area to reduce the amount of time we spend in close proximity in the exam room.

When you arrive for an appointment, we ask that you call 480.774.6995 upon arrival. We will not be providing masks, so please bring your own. If you do not have a mask, we will ask that you stay in your car. Please note that the proper way to wear a mask for it to be beneficial to all, is to use it to cover both your mouth AND your nose.

If any symptoms are present, we are only seeing pets if absolutely necessary, staying minimum of 6 feet away, and preferably staying outside or in a garage, etc.

As always, if you have any questions, contact us online or call Compassionate Animal Care at 480.774.6995

Thank you!
