Pet health issues often strike at inconvenient times. While some conditions aren’t emergencies, they still demand prompt care that can’t wait for a regular vet appointment. UrgentVet steps in with after-hours services, delivering quality treatment for pets and peace of mind for owners – without the high costs or long waits typical of emergency clinics.

“Think of us as urgent care for pets,” said Dr. Davila, Director of Veterinary Medicine. “If your pet is in pain, uncomfortable, or just not themselves, you can save a spot online or walk right in. We’re here to ease their suffering and your worries.”

The McCandless location is equipped to handle a variety of non-life-threatening conditions, including vomiting, diarrhea, limping, minor wounds, ear infections, skin issues, ingestion of foreign objects, and eye problems. With in-house diagnostic tools like X-rays, bloodwork, and basic ultrasound, the team can quickly pinpoint the problem and start treatment to get pets on the path to recovery.

Collaboration is key at UrgentVet. After treatment, the team works closely with each pet’s primary vet, sharing case notes, test results, and care summaries within 24 hours to ensure seamless follow-up care. “We’re the safety net for local veterinarians,” Dr. Davila explained. “When they’re closed or fully booked, we step in to help their clients and keep them informed every step of the way.”

UrgentVet McCandless is eager to join the local veterinary community and partner with pet-focused organizations to promote wellness in the area. The company also operates a location in Upper St. Clair.
