Emergency or Urgent Care? Knowing the difference can help you get your pet the right care, faster. 🐾

🚨 Emergency Care is for life-threatening situations, like severe trauma, difficulty breathing, seizures, or uncontrolled bleeding.

🚑 Urgent Care is for issues that need same-day attention but aren’t immediately life-threatening, like ear infections, minor wounds, vomiting, or limping.

Not sure which your pet needs? Call us! Our team is here to guide you and make sure your pet gets the right care without delay.

We also understand that urgent or emergency visits can come unexpectedly, and so can the costs. That’s why we accept the CareCredit credit card*, which offers flexible, budget-friendly financing options to help you pay over time for your pet’s care. If approved, you can use it right away, for both your pet’s health and even your own personal healthcare needs.

Because when it comes to your pet’s health, you shouldn’t have to wait.

September is Disaster Preparedness Month, and that includes pets, too. Whether it’s a hurricane, wildfire, flood, or unexpected emergency, having a plan can make all the difference. Make sure your pet’s emergency kit is stocked with food, water, medications, important records, and more. Don’t forget comfort items like a favorite toy or blanket!

Being prepared means peace of mind for you and your pets.
