Urgent Care in Boulder
Expert urgent care in Boulder. Licensed, insured, upfront pricing.
When a pet is suddenly not right, the wait for an appointment shouldn’t be the hardest part of the day. Pearl Street Animal Hospital holds same-day urgent slots open every morning specifically for sick and injured patients — no walk-in chaos, just a real person on the phone who triages what you’re describing and gets you seen by a doctor who already has your pet’s chart. If what you’re describing sounds like it needs the emergency hospital instead, we say so honestly and call ahead for you rather than making you wait to find out.

What To Expect
How the visit goes
Call before you drive over
Describe what’s going on. Our team triages by phone and tells you honestly whether it’s a same-day visit or an ER situation.
Seen the same morning
Urgent slots are held open specifically for this — you’re not squeezed between routine wellness appointments.
A doctor who has your pet’s history
Because you’re an existing or newly onboarded patient, the doctor isn’t starting from a blank chart.
A plan and a follow-up
You leave with a written plan and, for anything serious, a follow-up call to see how your pet is doing.

Questions
Questions about urgent care
Can you see my pet today?
Usually, yes. We hold same-day urgent slots open every morning, and most urgent calls are seen the same day. Call before you drive over — our team triages by phone, and if your pet needs an emergency hospital instead, we’ll say so honestly and call ahead for you.
What if something happens outside your hours?
Our overnight and off-hours calls route to an on-call triage line staffed by veterinary professionals who can see our patients’ charts. For true emergencies they will direct you to the nearest 24-hour hospital and send your records ahead.
How much does a visit cost?
The exam fee is quoted when you book, and anything beyond the exam — labs, imaging, treatment — comes as a written estimate you approve before we proceed. You will never learn a price for the first time at checkout.
