St. Petersburg Animal Hospital & Urgent Care, originally, The Animal Emergency Clinic of St. Petersburg, was established in 1973 by a group of local veterinarians. We are proud of our history serving the residents of this community, as we remain independently owned and operated by local veterinarians.

Our team is dedicated to providing high-quality urgent pet care in a compassionate environment. We will treat clients and their pets as we would treat our own family members. We will act with empathy, transparency, and integrity, with the pet’s wellbeing as our number one priority.

We are unique in that our core practice philosophy is offering compassionate, quality, convenient care to our patients when they need it. Whether new to the area, an unexpected illness or injury, or primary care veterinarian is unavailable, we offer walk-in or unscheduled care with extended evening and weekend hours.
