Urgent Care for Pets

If your veterinarian is unavailable and your pet is injured or sick, ACCESS Specialty Animal Hospitals are happy to provide two options – Urgent Care and Emergency Services.

While our 24×7 Emergency Department will treat your pet for life-threatening conditions, our Urgent Care can help pets who have non-life-threatening situations but still need to be seen by a doctor as soon as possible. If you’re unsure whether your pet’s situation requires Emergency Care or Urgent Care, please see the list below for common comparisons and medical concerns.

Our Pet Urgent Care accepts walk-ins and appointments. Appointments (up to 48 hours in advance) are strongly recommended to ensure availability and avoid long wait times. 

Urgent Care is available at ACCESS – South Bay and ACCESS – San Fernando Valley.
