Assessment
Our medical team will promptly assess your pet’s condition and vital signs.

speak, we know
how to listen.
Urgent care is for times when your dog or cat has a non-life-threatening condition, and you’re not able to be seen by your primary veterinarian quickly.
Don’t wonder and don’t wait. Count on AcutePet. We understand what your pet is trying to say and deliver the type of care needed with the compassion and kindness you (and your pet) deserve.
