Emergency Services for your pet 24-Hours a day, 365 days a year.

Pet emergencies rarely happen at a convenient time. That is why having access to a 24 hour veterinarian in Miami is so important for local pet owners. At Miami Veterinary Specialists, our emergency department is designed to provide immediate care for dogs, cats, and other pets that need urgent medical evaluation.

When you arrive, our first priority is to assess your pet’s condition and begin stabilization when needed. This may include oxygen support, IV fluids, pain medication, catheter placement, emergency diagnostics, or other critical care measures. Once your pet is stable, our team will review the findings with you and recommend a treatment plan based on your pet’s condition.

We understand how stressful it can be to face a pet emergency. Our team communicates clearly throughout the process, helping you understand what is happening, what your pet needs, and what the next steps may involve.

When Should You Visit an Emergency Vet?

Some symptoms should never be ignored, especially when they appear suddenly or seem severe. If your pet is having trouble breathing, experiencing repeated vomiting or diarrhea, collapsing, showing weakness, having seizures, crying out in pain, or struggling to stand, emergency care may be needed right away.

You should also contact a 24 hour veterinarian in Miami if your pet has a bloated or swollen abdomen, has suffered trauma from a fall, accident, or animal bite, may have been exposed to poison or toxins, is bleeding and the bleeding will not stop, or is having trouble urinating or defecating. Sudden changes in behavior, balance, or alertness, eye injuries, heatstroke symptoms, or complications after surgery or a recent medical procedure should also be treated as urgent.

Even if you are unsure whether your pet’s condition is an emergency, it is always better to call and ask. Our team can help you determine whether your pet should be seen right away.
