Safe, Professional Surgical Care That Supports Your Pet’s Long-Term Health
Spaying and neutering are important preventive procedures that help pets live healthier, safer lives. At Alta Animal Hospital, all spay and neuter surgeries are performed with modern anesthesia monitoring, careful pain management, and attentive post-operative care to ensure your pet’s comfort from start to recovery.
Procedures are typically recommended around 6 months of age, with individualized guidance based on your pet’s breed, size, and health.
Before Surgery: A small pre-anesthetic blood panel is recommended to help ensure your pet is healthy for anesthesia and surgery. This simple test checks organ function and helps us customize the safest anesthesia plan for your pet.
During Surgery: Your pet is closely monitored throughout the procedure using modern anesthesia protocols and pain control strategies. Heart rate, oxygen levels, and temperature are tracked every step of the way.
After Surgery: We provide clear at-home recovery instructions, pain management medication, and follow-up recommendations to support smooth healing. Spay and neuter procedures are typically same-day surgeries, meaning your pet will return home with you the same day — no overnight stays required.
Spay and neuter pricing is based on your pet’s weight. During your consultation or phone call, we’ll provide a transparent estimate so there are no surprises. We also offer flexible payment options through CareCredit, Scratchpay, and Cherry Pay.
