Urgent & Emergency Pet Care at Pine Animal Hospital

At Pine Animal Hospital, we understand that when your pet faces a sudden health concern, every moment counts. Our dedicated, compassionate team is ready to respond swiftly—whether it’s during planned urgent visits or unexpected emergencies.

Same-Day Urgent Care

If your dog, cat, or small pet is showing these concerning signs, call our clinic to schedule a same‑day urgent care appointment. We prioritize these visits to ensure your companion gets timely evaluation and treatment.

  • Minor trauma or cuts
  • Vomiting or diarrhea
  • Sudden lameness or limping
  • Skin rashes or suspicious lumps
  • Decreased appetite or lethargy

Flexible Urgent Care Hours

Monday–Friday: 7:30 AM – 6:30 PM

Saturday–Sunday: 7:30 AM – 4:30 PM

These designated hours help reduce wait times and ensure pets in need get prompt attention.

What to Expect During Your Urgent Visit

Triage & Assessment

Our team quickly evaluates your pet to determine urgency and necessary intervention.

Diagnostics & Stabilization

We use in-house lab testing, digital X-ray, and ultrasound to identify issues. IV fluids, pain relief, and bandaging are administered on-site.

Communication & Treatment Planning

We discuss our findings with you and outline a clear, tailored plan—including medications or referrals.

Tailored Follow-Up

We’ll help you schedule follow-up care with your primary vet or a specialist if needed.

After 6:30 PM (M–F) | After 4:30 PM (Sat–Sun)

Dial our clinic line for urgent advice and emergency referrals.

After-Hours Emergency Support

While Pine Animal Hospital isn’t open 24/7, our clinic works with trusted emergency specialists to protect your pet’s well-being.

Compassionate End-of-Life & Hospice Services

When your pet’s journey nears its end:

Gentle care and support in a comforting environment.

At-Home Euthanasia

Professional and compassionate services in the familiarity of your home.

Memorial & Aftercare Support

Guidance on burial, cremation, and coping with loss.

Why Pine’s Urgent Care Stands Out

  • Swift same-day visits — ideal for non-critical yet urgent concerns
  • Expert triage and in-house diagnostics
  • Clear communication and expert guidance
  • List Item
  • Compassionate end-of-life support when needed
