Pet Perks You’ll Actually Use: Inside Companion’s Exclusive Benefits

24/7 Tele-Vet Care, Whenever You Need It

Emergencies don’t wait for office hours. That’s why every Companion Energy plan includes complimentary access to a virtual vet care platform that connects you with licensed veterinarians through video or chat, anytime, anywhere. Whether it's a late-night limp, a weird cough, or just a hunch something’s off — help is just a tap away.

This benefit doesn’t just provide peace of mind — it provides actual access to expert triage. Instead of jumping to an emergency clinic or endlessly googling symptoms, pet parents can get advice quickly, often preventing unnecessary in-person visits.

What’s Included:

• Unlimited access to licensed vets via video or chat
• No appointment needed
• Mobile-friendly platform for on-the-go access

When to Use It:

• Before deciding if a trip to the vet is needed
• For behavioral or dietary questions
• Post-treatment follow-up questions

Emergency Vet Care Savings Through Companion’s Vet Discount Program

Vet emergencies are stressful enough without the added financial strain. Companion’s Vet Discount Program provides customers with savings of up to 25% on in-house medical services at participating veterinary clinics across Texas.

• 2. Present your discount card or digital member ID during your visit
• 3. Receive an instant discount — no forms, no claims

What’s Covered:

• Office visits
• Exams
• X-rays and lab work (performed in-house)
• Surgical procedures

What’s Not Covered:

• Outsourced labs or specialty care
• Non-medical services (boarding, grooming)
• Medications and retail items

Tips to Maximize Your Pet Perks

Your Companion Energy plan automatically includes both the tele-vet platform and the Vet Discount Program. Here’s how to get the most out of them:

• Always Use Tele-Vet First
  For minor concerns or pre-diagnosis questions, use the 24/7 tele-vet platform first. It’s free and fast — and often avoids the need for an in-person trip.
• Know What’s Covered
  Refer to your discount guide or Companion’s digital customer portal to confirm what’s included. This helps avoid surprises when scheduling care.
• Confirm Vet Participation in Advance
  Before your visit, confirm that your chosen clinic is part of the Companion Vet Discount network. This ensures you get the savings at checkout.
• Combine With Preventive Care
  Using discounts for preventive services like dental cleanings, annual exams, or screenings can save you hundreds over the course of a year.

Example Savings Scenarios

Let’s break down how these benefits can play out in real life (hypothetical examples):

• Scenario A: Your dog limps after a run. Instead of rushing to an emergency vet, you use tele-vet to assess urgency. The vet recommends rest and monitoring — cost: $0.
• Scenario B: Your cat needs a dental cleaning. Regular price is $350. With a 25% discount through a Companion partner vet, you pay $262.50 — a savings of nearly $90.
• Scenario C: Your puppy swallows a toy and needs x-rays and removal. Total cost is $950. With Companion’s discount, you save $237.50 instantly.

Behind the Perks: A Smarter Kind of Energy Plan

Most electricity providers stop at power. Companion Energy sees things differently. We understand that for many Texans, pets are family — and protecting family is essential.

Our integrated perks are designed to provide real, tangible support in your day-to-day life. They’re not promotions or add-ons. They’re part of how we do business.

The Future of Pet-First Utilities

As pet ownership rises and veterinary care costs continue to climb, energy providers like Companion are changing the game. Our approach — blending essential services like electricity with everyday protections for pets — is setting a new standard in customer care.

And it’s just the beginning. More innovations are coming to help Companion customers care for their pets affordably, safely, and confidently.

Bottom Line

Energy powers your home. But peace of mind powers your life. Companion Energy brings them both together with built-in pet perks that deliver value, care, and convenience every day.
