Frequently Asked Questions

Helping You Feel Confident About Your Pet’s Care

What is a medical assessment for pets?

Upon arrival, a technician will need to assess your animal in order to know how critical it is to check all the vitals in order to fill a triage sheet and get a better idea about how the animal is doing and whether they can wait or not.

When does a pet need to be hospitalized?
Hospitalization may be required when a pet needs continuous monitoring, intravenous medications or fluids, pain management, isolation for contagious illness, or stabilization during a medical crisis.
Will I receive updates while my pet is hospitalized?
Yes. Our team keeps pet owners informed about their pet’s condition, treatment progress, and next steps throughout hospitalization whenever possible.
Do I need an appointment for a medical assessment?
No appointment is required. You can walk in or call ahead to check availability, whether your pet needs routine monitoring or more urgent medical attention.
