Emergency and Urgent Care

Same-Day Appointments When Time is of the Essence

If you have an urgent pet health care condition during our normal office hours, please call us as soon as possible so we can arrange to have you bring your pet in or help you develop a plan, which could include referral to a local emergency clinic. Although some emergency conditions are best handled at specialized critical care facilities, Kennesaw Mountain Veterinary Services is well-equipped to handle many animal urgent care situations.
