Urgent Care - Same day appointments are available!

We are here for you when the unexpected happens :)

 
 

Urgent Care at BoosterPet @ Renton, Puyallup, Federal Way & Bonney Lake

All of our locations offer Urgent Care appointments for patients who benefit from seeing a veterinarian in person.

Urgent Care appointments are for those pets who are not feeling well and seeing a doctor directly is indicated. See below for more details.

Think of Urgent Care as the bridge between Wellness and Emergency. The same conditions that would send you to these different levels of doctors apply to your pet. Walk-ins are welcome - we triage cases based on their urgency. Give us a call at 206-822-4991 and we can book your spot.

Pets that see our Urgent Care are not so sick that they may need to spend the night in the hospital or require specialty care. These patients may need diagnostics (imaging, bloodwork) and even some outpatient supportive care (fluids, medications), but are well enough to go home the same day with their owner.

If you are unsure of which clinic to schedule at, please call us and we are happy to help direct you to where you need to be.

Things like bite wounds, urinating blood, cuts/abrasions, coughing, diarrhea or vomiting, pain or limping are all examples of ideal urgent care appointments. Don’t know which appointment to select?

Urgent Care Vs Emergency Care

  • Urgent Care (Provided at all BoosterPet locations)

    Urgent Care exams are ideal for pets who need to be seen by a veterinarian and their condition is not life-threatening and doesn’t require an overnight hospitalization. Walk-ins are welcome or you can schedule a same day appointment online.

    It’s similar to when you would choose a human urgent care over the emergency room. Some common ailments seen in Urgent Care are:

    1. Vomiting or diarrhea

    2. Change in urination

    3. Limping

    4. Lethargy (pet seems a bit “off”)

    5. Coughing or sneezing

    6. Itchy skin

    7. Ear infection

    8. Bite wounds

    9. Laceration repair

    10. Squinting

    11. Hives / rash

    12. Something seems “not quite right”

  • Emergency Care (Not Provided)

    Emergency Care is for pets who have a life-threatening condition and/or require overnight hospitalization. We know these days that veterinary ERs are really busy and need to concentrate their efforts on their most sick patients. Therefore, it’s important that pets make it to the correct place (ie Urgent Care vs Emergency).

    If you have any questions about where your pet should be seen, call us at 206-822-4991 or you can also call your local animal ER. Conditions which are best treated through an animal ER are:

    1. Non-ambulatory (can’t walk or needs a lot of assistance to stand)

    2. Seizures

    3. Difficulty breathing

    4. Large trauma, such as hit by a car

    5. Vomiting blood

    6. Broken bone(s)

    7. Distended abdomen

    8. Cannot urinate (especially male cats)
