I ask iThink Pet to inform the attending clinic or veterinarian of my requested total diagnosis and treatment limit of $ * per pet / all pets (most common values are $200, $1000, or unlimited). I understand that efforts will be made to contact me regarding any treatments, illness, injury, or potential problems as soon as the condition is deemed not life threatening and/or contact is possible. I understand that iThink Pet care providers work hard to prevent accidents and injuries, and that such problems may occur no matter how well a pet is cared for. I agree to allow iThink Pet care providers to use their best judgment in handling these situations, and I understand that iThink Pet and its staff assume no responsibility for the actions and decisions of the veterinary staff, the health, or death of my pet(s).

Such payments will be made within 14 days of the initial incident.

I further authorize iThink Pet and my primary veterinarian(s) to share all of the medical records of all of my animals with veterinary clinics in an emergency in the interest of providing the best care for my ill or injured animal(s).
Every dog and cat at the site of service will be current (per my veterinarians recommendations) on its rabies vaccinations, DPP, FVRCP for felines prior to the arrival of any caregiver. I will also make arrangements to guarantee that each animal will remain current on its rabies vaccinations throughout each service visit period.
