How much does a vet visit cost in Canada?

Prices vary by province and clinic, but as a rough guide in 2026:

• Routine exam: about $80–$130.
• Vaccines: about $40–$90 each.
• Emergency exam: about $150–$300 before tests.
• Dental cleaning under anesthetic: often $600–$1,500+.

Ask for a written estimate before treatment. Pet insurance, a savings fund, or a clinic payment plan can help with big bills. Some humane societies offer low-cost clinics.
