Why Microchipping Makes So Much Sense
The Surest Way to Find a Lost Pet
Most pet owners know that even the most attached and loyal pet can be tempted to wander if they have the opportunity. There are many other ways they can become separated from you, too. With the HomeAgain microchip, establishments like vet offices, pounds, and shelters will be able to instantly find your contact information and arrange to reunite you with your pet.
Just $60 for Placement and Registration
Placing the microchip and registering your companion animal on the HomeAgain network costs just $60. They don't even need an exam first. This small fee can help you become reunited with your pet, no matter how far away they roam.
The Most Popular Pet Microchip
HomeAgain has helped more than 3,000,000 lost pets get reunited with their humans. HomeAgain is the most popular microchip service because it's easy for any vet to scan, they'll pay to have pets sent back to owners if they are found out of state, and they meet all requirements for international travel.
Fast Procedure—No Downtime
If you come in for a microchip alone, you can expect to be in and out of our offices in just 5 minutes—less than the time it takes to do a nail trim! The microchip itself is the size of a grain of rice, the procedure is minimally invasive, and your companion can typically resume normal activity right after the procedure.
Easily Combined with Other Procedures
If you need to get your pet spayed or neutered, it's also a great time for them to get microchipped. Or, if you need to get your pet vaccinated, microchipping is simple to perform at the same time.
Let's Book Your Visit
Whether your pet is due for a simple procedure (like spaying, neutering, or vaccination), you plan to travel internationally with your pet, or you just want to keep your companion as safe as possible, it's time to consider microchipping if you haven't already.

I have taken my miniature schnauzer there for a few years now because of Dr. Julian's honesty and reasonably priced care. Recently, my dog needed surgery to remove bladder stones. He did an excellent job in removing them and repairing her bladder. The incision healed wonderfully due to his talented efforts. The office staff are such nice people, very flexible, and sincere about caring for your pet. I cannot say enough good things, and would highly recommend!!!

Our last Vet of 20 + years was bought out by a corporation & everything changed so we started going to Marietta Vet Clinic over a year ago. If you want common sense care at a reasonable price - this is your place. We are very happy here. Dr. Peckich and his staff are very knowledgeable & truly care about your animal.
View on GoogleMaintaining Your Profile
HomeAgain has built an online database of each chipped pet. As a pet owner, you will be able to access your pet's profile by logging into HomeAgain's website.
Your profile should contain:
- A description of your pet and current photo
- Your name, phone number, and email address
- Emergency contact information
As any of these details change, you can easily update them on the website.
Traveling Internationally with Your Pet?
The HomeAgain Chip Meets the Requirements
If you plan to travel outside of the country with your pet, most countries require that they have an ISO-compliant microchip, meaning it has a 15-digit ID number and operates at 134.2 kHz.
Dr. Peckich is accredited by the United States Department of Agriculture. That means he can provide all the documentation you need to bring your pet along on your travels, including vaccinations, testing, and an international health certificate. Get in touch with us today to make sure your companion is good to go when it comes to venturing outside the United States with you.
Microchipping FAQ
We will gladly answer all of your questions during your appointment. Until then, here are some quick answers to the questions we hear most often about microchipping:
Does it use GPS?
No. The microchip can't be used to track your pet; instead, if your pet is found and brought to a vet, pound, or shelter, they can scan the microchip to get the information needed to reach you and arrange their return.
Why not just get a GPS tracker instead of a microchip?
GPS trackers are available to attach to a pet's collar, but they serve a different purpose than microchips. While a GPS tracker can show you its real-time location, it can't prove your ownership. It's also possible that a GPS tracker could become detached from your pet. It is highly unlikely that a microchip could be separated from your pet, and it provides proof that the animal is yours.
Does my pet need an exam to get a microchip?
No! A preliminary exam is not necessary, making this simple safety measure even more economical in terms of both time and money.
What does a microchip for my pet cost?
It's just $60 at Marietta Vet Clinic. Considering this is one of the surest ways to recover a lost pet and prove ownership, we strongly encourage all pet owners to make this small investment in their companion's safety.

The best!! I have not been able to find a vet that even comes close to Dr. Peckich! We moved 45 minutes away and have tried to find a vet closer to us, but no one is as reliable and easy to work with. I will definitely be making the drive with my pets every time now. When so many vets have drained my bank account for services that didn’t even fix our problem, I truly appreciate the dedication this vet has for fair prices and a thorough exam.
