Understanding Pet Health Plans
Firstly, let’s define what a pet health plan is. A pet health plan is a subscription-based service that through small monthly payments of equal amount covers the cost of preventative care for your pet. At Parkside Vets we offer pet owners the Premier Pet Club a comprehensive plan that covers essential services like vaccinations, flea and worm treatments, and routine check-ups, to keep your pet healthy and happy.
But that’s not all! As a member of the Premier Pet Club, you’ll also enjoy exclusive benefits such as discounts on key products and services commonly used by pet owners. From the most popular diet products for your pet to neutering and microchipping, we’ve got you covered.
The Advantages of Pet Health Plans
As a pet owner, we all want to provide the best possible care for our furry companions. We feed them, walk them, play with them, and cuddle them. However, when it comes to their health, it can be difficult to predict the future.
This is where pet health plans and insurance come in. Both help responsible pet guardians build financial predictability into care which can involve large unexpected costs, and reassurance that your pet can always access the services they need both in times of sickness or injury (insurance) and in keeping them healthy by protecting them against preventable diseases and conditions (preventative healthcare plans)
We all have had experience of – or know fellow pet owners who have experienced – pets developing long-term conditions that need thousands of pounds worth of care. Or sometimes they have an accident that involves a lot of intense and expensive vet care in a short space of time. We also know that insurance means we can always afford to deal with these situations should they arise. But is it worth getting a preventative pet healthcare plan too?
We are convinced of the benefits, and our staff our too. In this post, we will explore the benefits of membership and how we have seen first-hand how it makes client and pet lives so much easier, happier and healthier.
Join the Premier Pet Club
Our healthcare plan is the best way to budget for key preventive healthcare essentials that will help to keep your pet healthy and happy for the longest time possible. Check-ups with a vet are included so we’ll be able to keep a close eye on health and deal with any issues as soon as they arise.

How Pet Health Plans Support Your Budget
One of the biggest advantages of a pet health plan is the ability to budget for this essential healthcare. Rather than paying for veterinary costs as they arise such as a lump sum annually for vaccinations, regular check-ups, or three months’ worth of flea and worm treatments, a pet health plan allows you to spread the cost of routine care over the year through your small monthly payments.
If you join the Premier Pet Club, you will have fixed pricing for 12 months, you won’t need to pay an annual renewal fee, and if your furry friend has up-to-date vaccines, there is no joining fee for you.
Worry-Free Pet Care: Finding Peace of Mind with Health Plans
Pet health plans can give you reassurance that if you think something is wrong or there’s something you’d like to discuss with us, you can just come in and speak to us; joining the Parkside Premier Pet Club you will get unlimited consultations*. You also don’t need to worry about missing the vaccination window and having to re-start, or gaps in protection against parasites as your products will be with you when they are due.
Preventative Care and Regular Check-ups
The regular check–ups throughout the year also mean that we can get to know you and your pet and learn what’s normal, and therefore what’s not and might need some further investigation. Catching problems early can often mean effective treatment there and then to nip it in the bud before it becomes a problem for your pet, or harder (and more expensive) to treat.
How Pet Health Plans Enhance Pet Well-being
Pet health plans can offer budgeting benefits and peace of mind, and we would always prefer to see your pet when they are healthy than when they are sick. We know from experience that lives of pets we get to see regularly and keep an eye on are longer and happier ones. The satisfaction we get from keeping families together and enjoying life is one of the things we get out of bed and come to work for!
