339 Brentwood pets visited us in 2025

We're 22 miles southeast of central Brentwood, about 33 to 38 minutes down Byron Highway. In 2025, 339 Brentwood pet owners brought a cat or dog here for spay or neuter.

People drive down Highway 4 for two reasons: price and scope. Owner Mike Wesselink hears dental quotes of $1,500 to $3,000 reported back from general practices in our service area.

One Concord client wrote about her 10-year-old cat:

"I live in Concord. Every veterinarian near me quoted me between $1,000 and $3,000 for the teeth cleaning. The Pet Advocate took x-rays, did the cleaning and two molar extractions."

Getting here from Brentwood

Take Brentwood Boulevard south to Highway 4. Follow Byron Highway (County Route J4) south through Byron. Stay on J4 as it becomes Byron-Bethany Road, then Byron Road. At Corral Hollow Road, head into Tracy. We're at 1973 N. Tracy Blvd., on the north side of town.

Most of the route is two-lane country highway. Plan for 35 minutes in light traffic, plus 10 to 15 more during morning commute.
