Insurance Options

Pet insurance works well in cases of injury and illness. Pet insurance premiums are typically paid on a monthly basis and can be used to help offset some of your pet’s treatment costs.

When using pet insurance, payment is due when services are rendered and then your insurance company will reimburse you if applicable.

If you're looking for a pet insurance provider, we suggest checking out Trupanion, ASPCA Pet Insurance, Nationwide Pet Insurance, PetPlan, or Pawlicy Advisor.

CareCredit

CareCredit is a healthcare credit card designed to help you pay for your pet’s health and wellness over time instead of having to pay for everything all at once.

Your CareCredit card can be used for a variety of veterinary procedures, including:

  • Exams
  • Spay and neutering
  • Dental cleaning
  • Parasite control and prevention
  • Medication
  • Vaccinations
  • Surgical procedures
  • And more

Scratch Pay

A veterinary loan company, Scratch Pay is not a credit card and does not affect your credit score when you apply for approval. Scratch Pay can be easily done from any smartphone, after a treatment estimate from Companion Skokie has been provided. Apply now at scratchpay.com.

"I can't speak highly enough of this place. I had to make an emergency appointment for a cat that was near death, and no other vet would see him. I knew Companion didn't have room for me, but they understood he didn't have time to wait. The situation didn't turn out as I had hoped, and the cat had to be put down. Every single staff member from the employees that answered the phone, to the nurse that took my cat in, to the doctor that ended up seeing him was nothing short of professional and compassionate. This type of experience is always traumatic, but the staff at Companion did everything they could to make the transition as peaceful as possible and had they not taken him in, he would not have had those few moments of comfort. I don't look forward to bringing my animals to the vet, but if I have to, I will bring them to Companion. Thank you again for all that you do for our fur babies!"
