Compassionate Care When Your Pet Needs It Most

At Animal Care Center of Polaris, we understand that pet emergencies don’t always happen during convenient hours—or with an appointment on the books. That’s why we proudly offer walk-in and urgent care veterinary services to ensure your pet receives timely, compassionate care when it matters most.

When to Use Our Urgent Care Services

Our urgent care services are designed to help with non-life-threatening situations that still require prompt attention. Examples include:

• Minor injuries (cuts, limping, bruising)

• Ear or eye issues

• Vomiting or diarrhea

• Sudden behavioral changes

• Allergic reactions (mild to moderate)

• Coughing or sneezing

• Skin irritations or itching

• Urinary issues

If you're ever unsure whether your pet’s condition qualifies as urgent, give us a call—we’re happy to help guide you.

Walk-Ins Welcome

While we encourage scheduled appointments for routine wellness visits, we gladly welcome walk-ins for urgent care needs during our regular business hours. Walk-in patients are seen on a first-come, first-served basis, with triage prioritizing pets in the most critical condition.

Please Note: Wait times may vary depending on the number and severity of cases being treated.

What to Expect

When you arrive with a walk-in or urgent concern:

1. Check-in at our front desk and let our team know about your pet’s condition.

2. Our veterinary team will assess the situation and determine the urgency of care.

3. Your pet will be seen as soon as possible, with priority given to those in need of immediate attention.

We're Here for You & Your Pet

Your pet’s health and comfort are our top priorities. Whether it’s a sudden issue or a concern that just can’t wait, our team is ready to provide experienced, compassionate care with minimal delay.
