Patient Testimonials

Experience 5-Star Care

We’re thankful for the opportunity to serve our community. Hear what our patients are saying about their 5-star experience with us!

Thank you to the best staff we could have ever hoped for. Our fur baby Seamus was in bad shape and critical. The team took great care of him and found out what was wrong. Because of their expertise and professionalism, he will be able to spend Christmas with us. Couldn’t recommend them more!

Steve A.

We had to take our kitty in on a Holiday for eating something potentially hazardous. We received prompt service. They were very knowledgeable and compassionate with our fur baby. We were very lucky it wasn’t poisonous to him. They cleaned him up got him feeling better and we were able to head home with him quickly. I would definitely recommend them. Bonus is they are a locally owned & operated hospital.

Kristen V.

I’ve had to visit here 3-4 times. They were so helpful and caring, at a time when that kindness was much needed. A couple of times I walked away with my pet , a diagnosis and instructions on how to deal with my kitties issues. Highly recommended 💛

Linda W.

I cannot emphasize enough how thankful I am for this animal hospital. I took my cat here thinking that he had a small urinary track infection and I ended up having to put him to sleep. My child went with me and he was devastated. The staff was very caring and helpful. They helped so much with the whole ordeal. Thank you so much for your concern. You showed me that they are still caring individuals in this world.

Aura H.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I had to rush my fur baby in this morning because she was having difficulty breathing. The staff was so caring and compassionate. They were able to quickly diagnose what was going on and stabilize her. I was able to take my baby home and she is now resting comfortably (with her Teddy). She is my life and I can’t even imagine if I had lost her. Thank you to the entire staff at this facility!!

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I bring my pet to an emergency vet?

If your pet is experiencing symptoms like difficulty breathing, severe vomiting or diarrhea, trauma, seizures, sudden lethargy, or anything that feels urgent or unusual, it’s best to seek emergency care right away. If you’re unsure, you can always call us for guidance.

Do I need an appointment?

No appointment is necessary. We are open 24/7 and accept walk-ins at any time. Patients are seen based on the severity of their condition to ensure the most critical cases are treated first.

What types of emergencies do you treat?

We handle a wide range of emergencies, including injuries, toxin ingestion, breathing issues, surgical emergencies (like bloat or foreign body ingestion), and more. Our experienced team is equipped to manage most cases in-house.

Will my regular veterinarian be updated?

Yes. We prioritize communication with your primary veterinarian and send detailed records promptly after your visit to ensure continuity of care.

How much will my visit cost?
