Urgent & Same-Day Veterinary Care

Emergencies don’t always happen during office hours. That’s why we offer urgent care, including weekend visits, to help with sudden illness, injury, or discomfort. When your pet needs help now — we come to you.

Dr. Hone came to my house early on a Saturday morning when I was frantic to help my little baby..she is compassionate and caring….I felt her true love for my little dog too…in giving her rest finally.  I continue to cry buckets of tears… but I am grateful my sweet baby, Libby, could pass with me holding her on her blanket where we always sat together on the couch.

Dr. Hone will always hold a very special place in my heart. She came to my home and helped my beloved dog, Lucy cross over to the Rainbow Bridge. Dr. Hone is generous, compassionate and caring. Lucy's passing was peaceful, dignified and honored her life. Nothing like euthanasia in a sterile vet office and cold exam table. And her aftercare touched my heart. Helping me choose an urn. Providing me with a paw print and nose print of my girl. Thank you Dr. Hone.
