Pet Urgent Care.com strives to provide you access to the best in veterinary medicine and critical medical care during after-hours, holidays and weekends.  Veterinarians, skilled technicians and professional staff members work with the latest technology to ensure that your dog, cat, bird or other exotic pet is provided with the best in care.

If you’re concerned about your pet, you should never feel embarrassed about calling a veterinarian, emergency clinic or animal hospital. Veterinarians are used to emergencies and they prepare for them. Most veterinary hospitals have doctors on-call or provide referrals to emergency pet hospitals, so don’t worry about waking your veterinarian out of a sound sleep. In fact, all AAHA-accredited hospitals are required to provide 24-hour access to emergency pet care, either in their own facility or through referral to another animal hospital. (To find an AAHA-accredited animal hospital near you, visit the Hospital Locator.)

Remember, you know your pet better than anyone else. If you notice your pet behaving in a way that’s unusual for her, or if something just doesn’t seem right, you may have picked up on a subtle sign of a real problem. To find out, you can call your veterinary hospital, or an emergency animal hospital near you. By asking a few questions over the phone, an emergency veterinarian should be able to tell you whether you should bring your pet in right away, or whether she can wait for an examination during your hospital’s normal office hours. Even if you find out nothing’s wrong, you’ll be glad to have your mind at ease.
