United Pet Care (UPC) is a pet healthcare membership program. Membership in our program saves you 20-50% on every visit to the veterinarian.
United Pet Care (UPC) was founded in Arizona in 1996, and has since expanded to include Colorado, Nevada, California, and parts of Texas. With the rising costs of veterinary care, and the challenges of today's economic conditions, United Pet Care is dedicated to helping pets receive top-quality, affordable veterinary care.
Everyone wants to be able to take care of their pets, and United Pet Care's excellent network of veterinary providers makes that possible.
The company was founded on the premise that healthcare programs for pets are fast becoming a necessity in today's economic environment.
