Walk in Monday through Friday from 12 to 3 PM for routine vaccines. No appointment is needed during walk-in hours. Review our pet vaccination services before your visit.
Our routine wellness services include microchipping, flea and tick prevention, deworming, nail trimming, and anal gland expression. See our pet wellness services and current prices and rates.
Sterilization prevents unwanted litters and can provide health and behavioral benefits. Spaying is the surgical procedure performed on a female cat or dog, while neutering commonly refers to the procedure performed on a male cat or dog.
The appropriate time to spay or neuter depends on your pet’s age, sex, breed, weight, health, and reproductive status. The Pet Advocate generally recommends scheduling puppies and kittens around four to six months of age, but the veterinarian determines whether each animal is ready for surgery.
We spay eligible female cats, including pet cats and qualifying feral cats. Contact the clinic before booking if your cat may be pregnant, is nursing, or has a health condition that could affect surgery.
We neuter eligible male cats. If you are bringing a feral cat from Manteca for sterilization, confirm the clinic’s current appointment, transport, vaccination, and handling requirements before traveling.
Dog spay and neuter pricing varies by sex and weight. Female dogs should generally not be spayed while in heat because the procedure can carry a greater risk of complications. Contact the clinic if your dog is in heat, recently completed a heat cycle, may be pregnant, or has a medical condition that could affect surgery.
The Pet Advocate gives Manteca families access to affordable preventive care, published prices, and clear service boundaries. Pet owners can prepare using our published requirements and return home with aftercare guidance for their dog or cat.

“Took our pup in for neutering about a year ago and our older dog in for dental cleaning last week. Both experiences were so good, and the puppers were happy and healthy after. The staff and doctors are very caring!”
“Great experience. Josie recovered quickly from the dental cleaning. Everyone was helpful, knowledgeable, and courteous. Would recommend and will return.”
The Pet Advocate is not a full-service animal hospital. If your pet is sick, injured, having trouble breathing, bleeding, unable to stand, or showing another sign of urgent distress, contact an emergency or full-service veterinary hospital instead of waiting for an appointment with us.
Our clinic is best suited to planned preventive care for healthy pets. If you are uncertain whether your pet qualifies, contact the clinic before traveling from Manteca.
