We understand it is difficult not seeing your regular veterinarian when your beloved pet is not well. We've been open for more than 30 years and are committed to assisting your veterinarian to provide comprehensive care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
We provide emergency and urgent care for small animals, including most exotic pets. We care for birds, rabbits, ferrets, guinea pigs, chinchillas, sugar gliders, rats, hamsters, gerbils, hedgehogs, pot-bellied pigs, lizards, and snakes. Please call us if your pet is not on this list. Small exotic pets can become critical more quickly, so contact us right away if your pet is not acting normally.
