Urgent Care for Pets

When your pet has a problem that can't wait but isn't a life-threatening emergency, we're here. We see urgent cases the same day — call us and we'll get your pet in as quickly as possible.

What Counts as Urgent Care?

Urgent care is for conditions that need prompt attention but are not immediately life-threatening. Examples include:

  • Vomiting or diarrhea (more than once, or with blood)
  • Eye redness, discharge, or sudden squinting
  • Ear pain, shaking head, or odor from the ear
  • Limping or sudden lameness (non-weight bearing)
  • Cuts, wounds, or bite injuries that may need stitches
  • Urinary straining or difficulty urinating (call us immediately)
  • Mild allergic reactions (hives, facial swelling without breathing difficulty)
  • Known or suspected toxin ingestion — call poison control and us right away

True Emergencies — Go to an ER Immediately

For life-threatening situations, proceed directly to an emergency veterinary hospital. Do not wait for us to open.

  • Difficulty breathing or choking
  • Collapse or inability to stand
  • Seizures
  • Severe bleeding that won't stop
  • Loss of consciousness
  • Suspected snake bite

Call us at (657) 331-9481 and we'll direct you to the nearest 24-hour emergency hospital if needed.
