Some Petco locations have a full-service veterinary clinic inside them which can do neuters (like a Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach clinic or Thrive vet clinic). Petco locations that use Vetco do not do surgery (neutering).

Typically Petco doesn’t do spays/neuters on site unfortunately. You will have to visit a low cost spay/neuter facility or your local vet clinic. They may do microchipping, you will just have to call your local Petco to see if they have this program set up near you. Best wishes!

Hello, I am in desperate need of neutering my cat soon and am saving up to do so. I found you guys using a search for affordable neutering/spaying and was wondering the costs for neutering and vaccinations since I couldn't find them on the website. I
The Vetco clinics at PetCo don’t do neutering surgery. They do healthy pet vaccinations, deworming and can test him for feline leukemia and feline aids. They can also insert a microchip. Each area has different prices so please check with your local store. Thanks for using Boop by Petco to help you care for Dexter.

Do you guys do shots, and sspay and nuture
The Pet Coach veterinary clinics in California perform these services. As for if your local PetCo has these services, typically it is a vaccine clinic only. You will need to call your local vet clinic to have all these services done.

im trying to find a low cost place near me to neuter my male cat since im low income hes 11weeks old, hopefully a petco low cost spay/neuter event near me? im n reno nv
Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! PetCo doesn't offer surgeries or see sick animals. PetCo's that offer veterinary services (VetCo) are for wellness and vaccinations only. I would check out the SPCA for low cost pay and neuter events. For other financial assistance: Care Credit (carecredit.com) can provide financing options. There are also many non-profit organizations that can provide financial assistance for animals. redrover.org humansociety.org/animals/resources/tips/trouble_affording_pet.html?credit=web_id91754962 bestfriends.org/resources/financial-aid-pets lessonsfromaparalyzeddog.com/when-pet-owners-cant-afford-veterinary-bills/ getyourpet,com

He is a 6 yr old Yorker that we rescued he’s never been neutered and has had no shots since he was a pup am I correct in reading that petco does neutering?
Hello there...thank you for contacting Boop by Petco! What a cute little guy! :-) Unfortunately, Petcoach does not perform surgical services at this time. There currently are a limited number of locations in particular states within Petco (either Thrive Affordable Pet Care or The Pet Vet) that will perform surgical services. Petco can certainly help to get Remmy up to date on his vaccinations through their Vetco vaccination clinic services, however. You will want to be sure Remmy is up to date on his vaccination before any surgical services are performed. I hope this helps, good luck!

I am looking for a Petco in our area that does spaying for female dog. Would you be able to assist? All shots done at Petco. She's about 1 year
Only Petco stores with a new Thrive veterinary hospital inside them will be able to do spaying. I'm not sure if there is one in your area. Your less expensive option is to have it done at the Humane Society or your local spay/neuter clinic. ( https://www.dakinhumane.org/ )

I was wondering if Petco has spaying services? If yes if there is an average price or set price for the service?
Only the Petco's who offer physical clinics would be able to offer a spay. You can find information about these locations on Petco.com. Scroll down to the veterinary services. The cost of a spay will vary based upon the age, size, health issues and heat cycle. Your pup will need a physical exam to get a correct estimate. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.

Hi, I have a chihushua Shes about 2 years old I would like to get her Dsexed How much would it cost? What day and time am i able to bring her in? Thanks. Mary
Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! PetCo and VetCo do not perform surgeries. The cost of spaying (desexing) is region dependent and varies by veterinary hospital. I recommend establishing a regular vet and have them provide you and price and set up a date for surgery. I wish Honey and you the best!

Hello. Petco/Vetco can not do surgeries, but I am sure you can find someone in your area to help you out. Call a few to get an idea of cost as all clinics will have slightly different fees. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

Do you do "low cost" spay & neuter? What about microchip? What are the fees for both services? Thank you.
Spay and neuter services are not offered at vaccination clinics. The microchip price is $15 at most Petco/Vetco locations. You can find additional pricing information here: https://www.vetcoclinics.com/services-and-clinics/vaccination-packages-and-prices/
