Requesting a visit outside the current availability allows a licensed vet to review your request and try to accommodate your pet's needs
This is not an emergency service
How it works
Urgent appointments are for situations where your pet is experiencing a sudden decline, visible pain, distress, or other time-sensitive end-of-life needs — and no standard appointment times are available.
These requests are most appropriate when care is needed same-day, but existing time slots don’t work or aren’t shown
No — this is not an emergency service.
Urgent requests are not designed for situations that require immediate intervention. If your pet is in critical distress, please contact a 24/7 emergency veterinary clinic.
Not immediately. Your request is sent to licensed veterinarians in your area. If one is able to help, they will reach out directly to discuss the proposed arrival time and any additional fees.
After you agree on the details, you will receive a booking link to confirm the appointment.
Response times can vary. Vets who offer flexible availability typically try to reach out as soon as they’re able — but they may be attending to other pet families or personal responsibilities before they can respond.
While many pet parents hear back within a few hours, we can’t guarantee a timeframe. We recommend continuing to explore other options until you’ve connected with a vet.
Yes, urgent appointments usually include an additional fee based on the time of day or night, your location, and the vet’s ability to accommodate. You’ll see all estimated costs before confirming your appointment.
Unfortunately, urgent appointments are not guaranteed bookings. If no vet is immediately available, your request stays open and visible to local providers — and we’ll notify you if someone is able to help.
In the meantime, we strongly recommend continuing your search for care. You can explore alternative in-home providers at: inhomepeteuthanasia.com
Yes. If a vet accepts your request, they’ll try to connect with you as soon as possible — often by text message for speed, or with a phone call when needed.
This allows you to confirm the proposed time and any added fees, and ask any questions before the booking link is sent.

The vet was incredibly compassionate and patient. They made an unbearably hard day peaceful and full of love. I’ll always be grateful for their kindness and care.

I have told several people about the procedure and highly recommend Dr. Wahala due to her explicit explanation of the procedure and her sincere compassion. She made sure it was an easy transition for Cassie and for me.
Dr. Gary was so kind and patient with us. Having To let go of our 18 year old baby girl was hard, but the process was very peaceful. Thank you Dr. Gary.

Dr. Marlene is one in a million. Our 15 year old Tibetan Terrier had Canine Cognitive Dysfunction. She came to our home and was calm , sympathetic , and professional . She has a way that makes a person feel ok in such a terrible situation. She did not rush us . She explained in detail how and what to expect during the process. She gave us as much time as we needed to spend our last minutes with “ Bentley “ . You could not find a Veterinarian better to help you through this horrible part of life. We will be forever grateful to her .
