Urgent Care for Dogs and Cats in Chilliwack
After-Hours Care
Outside of our clinic hours, we encourage you to contact a nearby 24-hour veterinary facility for urgent care.
Same-Day Vet Visits in Chilliwack, 7 Days a Week
Every morning we protect time in the schedule for pets that were fine yesterday. Call ahead if you can: a short phone triage tells us how quickly your pet needs to be seen and lets us prepare, and walk-ins during open hours are never turned away without being assessed. With weekday hours until 10 PM, an after-dinner scare does not have to become a sleepless night.
Urgent Symptoms That Should Not Wait
Some situations warrant a same-day call during our open hours: breathing difficulty, seizures or collapse, suspected toxin ingestion, straining to urinate (especially male cats), significant wounds or bleeding, sudden swelling of the face, eye injuries, heatstroke concern, repeated vomiting, or a pet that simply will not settle. You know your dog or cat better than anyone; when your instinct says something is wrong, call and let our team help you judge.
What Counts as a True Emergency?
A pet that cannot breathe, cannot stand, is actively seizing, or cannot pass urine needs veterinary care immediately. During our open hours, call (604) 824-0005 and come straight in; our team triages the most critical cases first.
What Happens at an Urgent Visit
Urgent appointments start with triage: vital signs, a focused history, and a rapid assessment of how sick your pet actually is. Our in-house lab, digital X-ray, and ultrasound mean most of the work-up happens in one visit, and many pets go home the same day with a care plan. When a case needs care beyond a general practice, we stabilise first and coordinate transfer with our specialist referral partners.
Why Families Across South Chilliwack Choose Us for Urgent Visits
We have been at the same Vedder Road location since 2006, the practice is owned by its veterinarians, and a large doctor and support team is what makes genuine same-day capacity possible. Pet owners from Sardis, Promontory, Garrison Crossing, and out to Cultus Lake reach us in minutes, and evening hours mean urgent care rarely has to wait for morning.
