Questions About Our Services
What is the difference between urgent care and emergency care?
Urgent care is for health problems that need attention today but are not immediately life-threatening, such as vomiting, diarrhea, eye problems, or minor injuries. Emergency care is for critical situations like trouble breathing, collapse, or severe bleeding. Our team handles both, so if you are unsure, bring your pet in or call (870) 679-9392.
Do I need an appointment for urgent care?
No. Walk-ins are always welcome. To speed up check-in, you can fill out our same-day check-in form before you arrive.
What conditions do you treat at urgent care?
We treat toxic or poison ingestion, vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, eye problems, fever, anal-gland issues, allergic reactions, injuries, and more. We also provide stabilizing treatment for pets with severe illness or injury.
How much does an urgent care visit cost and how do I pay?
Costs depend on your pet’s condition and the care they need. We provide estimates before treatment and accept cash, major credit cards, Cherry, Care Credit, and Scratch Pay. For specific pricing, call (870) 679-9392.

Facial swelling, widespread hives, vomiting, weakness, or any difficulty breathing need immediate care. Bring your pet in right away or call (870) 679-9392.
Can allergies cause ear and skin infections?

Yes. Bite wounds often look small on the surface but can damage the tissue underneath and become infected. A veterinary exam helps make sure the wound heals properly.
How should I transport an injured pet?
