Carol House Quick Fix Pet Clinic

Who We Are: Carol House Quick Fix Pet Clinic is a non-profit 501(C)3 organization located in the city of St. Louis. Our mission is to reduce pet overpopulation by providing an effective, accessible and affordable spay/neuter option. We also educate pet and non-pet owners about the benefits of spaying and neutering companion animals. We are proud to be a Humane Alliance clinic. 

What We Do: We provide spay and neuter services to both dogs and cats by appointment only. We have a team of highly skilled veterinarians, technicians, and assistants who provide excellent care to their patients. We use the highest quality anesthesia, patient monitoring, and pain medications. In 2015, we introduced Quick Fix Express. This allows us to provide free transportation to pet owners both within inner cities and rural communities. We offer “walk-in” wellness clinics several times a week. Services include exam by a veterinarian, vaccines, heartworm testing and prevention, deworming, nail trims, and other services as well.  

Why We Are Important: More than 50,000 pets in the bi-state area have been fixed at our clinic since the opening in June 2012. By reducing the number of unwanted litters that are born, we will also reduce the number of animals that are homeless, living on the street or sent to shelters, only to be euthanized. Spaying and neutering is the solution to ending this horrible cycle. 

How We Impact The Community: According to the Missouri Department of Agriculture, the four largest shelters in the area have reported a substantial decrease in the number of animals euthanized over the past five years. We hope to eventually help make St. Louis a no-kill city because we envision a community in which pets are not euthanized just because they are homeless. 

How You Can Help: Our mission is supported by donations from individuals, grants, fundraisers, and corporate giving. Our annual fundraiser, Sip to Save Soiree, is held each year in the fall. We are always in need of cleaning supplies and paper products to make our clinic run smoothly. For more information about donating an item from our product wish list or to make a monetary donation, visit our website CarolHousePetClinic.org
