What We Offer Manteca Pet Owners

We focus on routine, planned veterinary care. Not emergencies, not internal medicine, not behavioral work. That focus is what keeps prices where they are.

Why Manteca Pet Owners Keep Coming to Tracy

Manteca is our single largest customer city. In 2025, 1,241 Manteca pet owners made the 12-minute drive to our Tracy clinic, more than any other city we serve. That's not a fluke, and for most of them it comes down to one thing: the math works.

The savings are real and specific.

A cat spay at a typical Manteca-area clinic runs $300–$600. Ours starts at $105. A dog spay locally is often $500–$800. Ours starts at $170. A full dental cleaning in the area typically costs $800–$1,500. Ours is $600 flat, and that includes pre-anesthetic bloodwork, full-mouth digital X-rays, scaling, polishing, and fluoride treatment. For a planned procedure, the drive pays for itself before you pull back onto Highway 99.

Our full pricing is on the prices and rates page. Nothing is vague or subject to change at checkout.

This place Great staff and really good doctors my only complaint is that they have you drop between 8:30-9am and don’t end taking you in for another hour to a little over an hour to be taken in they should really work on their drop off process in the morning it’s very inconvenient to the customers.

Why We're Not the Right Fit for Everyone

We're not a full-service animal hospital, and some situations genuinely require one.

If your pet is sick, injured, or showing signs of distress today, don't make the drive to us. Manteca has capable options closer to you, including Manteca Veterinary Hospital on North Main Street and Orchard Valley Veterinary Clinic on Daniels Street.

What we do is the planned, preventive work a healthy pet needs: spays and neuters, dental cleanings, vaccines, wellness basics. If your situation fits that description, we're the most affordable option in the region. If it doesn't, we'll say so.
