What Is Urgent Care for Pets?

Urgent care is for non-life-threatening conditions that still can’t wait for your regular vet’s next opening. Think of it like walk-in care for people—it’s same-day support for when something’s clearly wrong, but not quite a crisis.

Common reasons to seek urgent pet care in Frisco include:

  • Limping or sudden lameness
  • Minor wounds or bleeding
  • Vomiting or diarrhea without lethargy
  • Coughing, sneezing, or runny eyes
  • Ear infections, itchy skin, or hot spots
  • Urinary accidents or suspected UTI
  • Mild allergic reactions (swelling, hives)
  • Broken toenails or minor injuries
  • Behavioral changes or signs of discomfort
