Resources for Pet Owners in Need
We understand that unexpected veterinary costs can be stressful. At Dunedin Animal Medical Center, we’re committed to helping every pet receive the care they need, regardless of financial situation.
Our team will work with you to find flexible payment solutions and trusted resources that fit your circumstances.
Flexible Payment Options
We offer in-house payment plans and financing through trusted partners like Cherry, allowing you to split your payments over time with no-interest options for qualified applicants.
Learn more about Cherry and how it can make veterinary care more accessible for your pet.
- What can I finance? Anything in the animal hospital—exams, diagnostics, surgeries, meds, and more.
- How long? Up to 6 months at 0% APR if approved.
- When should I apply? Before your visit is best, but you can apply in the office.
Financing is provided by Cherry, subject to approval and terms. DAMC/CAH is not the lender.
