On this episode of Best Bets for Pets, Michelle Fern dives into a topic every pet parent must understand: the real cost of caring for our furry family members.

Jonathan explains how tools like CareCredit and pet insurance can work together, shares insights on the biggest financial surprises new pet owners face, and offers lifesaving advice for planning ahead. If you’ve ever wondered how to prepare for the true financial side of pet ownership, this episode is a must-listen.
