Frequently Asked Questions


What are the benefits of home delivery for me?

Convenience! When you don’t have time for a special trip to your veterinarian’s office to purchase your pet’s food or medications, you can go online. A broad product offering is available through home delivery where you can ensure regularly scheduled delivery of your pet’s diet and prescriptions by signing up for the auto refill program.

How do I enroll?

Enroll at the hospital, online through your hospital’s web site or call (877)738-4443.

If I don’t have internet access, can I still participate in home delivery?

Yes. Simply call (877)738-4443. Our staff will be happy to place an order for you. You can also place orders through your pet hospital.

Will I pay the same price if I sign up for home delivery instead of picking it up at the clinic?

You will pay the hospital’s retail price, plus a nominal shipping and handling fee..

Is my credit card safe?

Yes, VetSource utilizes a secure web site where all transactions are performed using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols so the security of any data transmitted to VetSource is guaranteed.

How do I know my order has been approved?

Your order request will automatically be forwarded to your veterinarian for approval. You will receive an email or phone notification as soon as your request is approved. If for some reason your veterinarian does not approve the request, you will be notified with instructions on what else is needed for approval..

How quickly will I receive my pet’s food and prescriptions?

Because VetSource has distribution centers across the country, you can expect prompt delivery. Overnight or expedited delivery is available for an additional charge.

I live in a remote area. Can I still have food and prescriptions delivered?

Yes, but you will need a home street address or we can ship to an alternate address (i.e. work). We cannot ship to a P.O. Box.

Do I have to be at home to receive my delivery?

We will deliver most products to your home without a signature. There are exceptions, however. Certain products (i.e. controlled substances and medications needing refrigeration) must be tracked and signed for.

How much should I feed my pet? What if my pet has an adverse reaction?

Any concerns about your pet’s diet, health, medications, or particular questions about use of any home delivery products should be directed to your veterinarian or their staff.

How does your return policy work for prescriptions and over the counter medications?

For your protection, state and federal laws do not permit pharmacies to resell prescription products if they have been returned after sale, even if they are unopened. In special cases, prescriptions may be returned for credit but the medication will be destroyed by the pharmacy.OTC products may be returned to the pharmacy for credit provided that they are unopened, not temperature sensitive, and are returned within 30 days of the original sale date. Exceptions to this policy will be made on a case by case basis. All return requests must be pre-approved by the pharmacy before return documents or credits will be issued. Return policies may be subject to change.
