About Pet Urgent Care in Spokane
Pet Urgent Care of Spokane is a locally owned veterinary urgent care clinic serving dogs and cats in Spokane, WA and nearby communities. We were created to fill the gap between general practice and emergency hospitals, offering timely, compassionate care in a more comfortable, and affordable setting.
Our Story, Mission, and Values
Pet Urgent Care of Spokane was established to meet a real community need: care for pets who cannot wait for a routine appointment but may not require a full emergency hospital visit. Since opening in 2023, our clinic has focused on helping families across Spokane and the surrounding area access urgent veterinary care for dogs and cats in a setting that feels supportive, clear, and approachable. We are proud to be locally owned and operated, and we work closely with general practice veterinarians by reporting back after each visit so pets can continue receiving consistent care from their regular doctor.

Common Questions About Pet Urgent Care of Spokane
If you are learning more about Pet Urgent Care of Spokane, these answers can help explain who we are, how our clinic fits into the local veterinary community, and what makes our approach different. This FAQ section is designed to give pet owners in Spokane and nearby areas clear, practical information before their visit.
What makes Pet Urgent Care of Spokane different from a general practice veterinary clinic?
Pet Urgent Care of Spokane focuses on urgent, non-emergency concerns for dogs and cats rather than ongoing routine care. Our role is to help bridge the gap when your regular veterinarian is unavailable or booked out, while still communicating with your primary DVM so your pet’s care remains coordinated.
Is Pet Urgent Care of Spokane an emergency animal hospital?
Pet Urgent Care of Spokane is not a 24/7 emergency hospital. Our clinic provides urgent veterinary care in Spokane for pets who need prompt attention but may not require the higher level and cost of a full emergency visit. If a pet is experiencing a life-threatening emergency, owners should seek immediate emergency care.
Who owns Pet Urgent Care of Spokane?
Pet Urgent Care of Spokane is locally owned and operated through Pet Emergency Clinic. That local ownership is an important part of who we are, because it allows our team to stay closely connected to the needs of pet owners and veterinary partners throughout the Spokane area.
Why was Pet Urgent Care of Spokane created?
Our clinic was established in 2023 to meet a community need for veterinary care outside typical daytime availability. The goal was to give dogs and cats in Spokane access to compassionate urgent care at a lower cost than an emergency room visit while also helping relieve overflow from busy local veterinary practices.
Will my regular veterinarian be updated after my pet’s visit?
Yes. A key part of our approach is supporting continuity of care by reporting back to your pet’s general practice veterinarian after the visit. That helps your regular DVM stay informed about your dog’s or cat’s treatment and next steps, rather than interrupting the relationship you already have with their clinic.
