  • Collapsed or can’t stand

  • Seizing

  • Hit by a car

  • Bitten by another animal

Insurance Resources

No one ever expects an emergency—but being prepared can make all the difference. When your pet suddenly needs specialty or critical care, the emotional toll is hard enough without the added stress of unexpected costs.

That’s why Pacific Northwest Pet ER & Specialty Center encourages pet parents to explore pet insurance options before an emergency happens.

We proudly accept Trupanion Direct Pay, making it easier to manage costs by working directly with Trupanion Pet Insurance at the time of your visit.

With pet insurance in place, you can:

  • Focus on your pet’s care—not your finances

  • Act quickly in emergencies

  • Access advanced specialty services with peace of mind

Your pet’s health is priceless—but planning ahead can help protect both your heart and your wallet.
