​​​​​​​For existing clients, we may request your pet be dropped off rather than schedule an exact appointment time. We prioritize urgent care space for existing clients, but also welcome new clients on a space available basis. New clients should complete the new client form to begin the process. Vaccines are never administered during an urgent care visit. Please always call first. No walk-ins!
