Olympia Pet Emergency

We took out puppy here after she ingested rocks. Everyone was very nice and gave us all of our options. They did not suggest surgery right away and tried alternate routes to get them out. She ended up having surgery but she is now doing good! Everyone took such good care of her and she is now doing good!

Not knowing vets here like our small town home vet back home, I wasn’t sure where to go. Our beloved cat suddenly became sick, in pain, & acting bizarre. I called and they were super helpful on the phone & we saw them at midnight on a weekend without problem! Sadly, our cat had thrown a blood clot and had to be euthanized. The staff was extremely supportive and helped us with everything. We were able to be with our fur baby til we were ready to say goodbye. Our care credit was processed no problem and I found their fees reasonable for an after hours emergency care & care of the body. Thank you! We have found our new vet clinic for our other fur baby as well.

My life long companion started acting off and since she was a 13yo retriever I called her vet for info on local emergency vets (first time in this area). She declined extremely fast and by the time I got her to the clinic less than 30min from first noticing something off she was unresponsive. The staff carried her in for me right away and then had me sign the required notices of fees and preferences for cpr. They were efficient getting her examined and upfront about the costs involved. I appreciated how well they handled it as I was absolutely distraught. They were straight forward with what was believed to be the cause and prognosis giving me the option to try more extreme and costly tests that would still only confirm cause but not give a hope for a good outcome. In the end my pup made the final decision for me but I know she didn’t suffer long and we didn’t have to be alone through that difficult moment for that I am grateful.

Only interested in money. My friend has a dog that has a bladder full of stones. She is at the emergency vet in Tacoma (VCA) and they are refusing to treat her because she can only pay 800 of 2500 and are willing to let the dog die. And because my she can’t come up with 400 more to pay half, Olympia is OK with letting her dog die too. Calling around to the other emergency vets in the area, they are the same. So if you are working class and don’t have thousands in your pocket, pray your dog doesn’t get sick after hours because this clinic does not care.

My cat got sick over the holiday weekend and he went down hill fast. It was a respiratory infection. He wouldn’t eat or drink and I took him in to this vet being that it was the closest open vet. It took two hours to get there and he was super dehydrated so when I got to the vet I told them right away that he needed to have a fluid injection and they made us wait two hours while they ran every test in the book and did xrays. They then said we had to pay 3000 dollars to have him on an iv and that we would need to take him to a long term vet or he would die. I paid the 800 for all the testing and asked them to please at least give him the fluid. I couldn’t pay the 3000. They finally did but at this point it had been 5 hours. They recommended that if I couldn’t pay I had him put down because he would not live the night. In the morning when he was still alive I took him to another vet who for 175 gave me everything I need to keep him going. Today he is back on top thanks to the second vet. This place just cares about getting huge payouts. Thank god I didn’t listen to them and gave my guy a chance.

Our boxer-​mastiff ripped one of his nails and the bleeding wouldn’t stop. Our regular vet office was closed, so we found this emergency vet on Google. They were awesome! They got Opie in right away, and everyone was super nice. Of course, true to form, the bleeding had stopped by the time we got him there to be looked at. They didn’t charge us a thing, not even an exam fee. There was so much kindness there, for Opie, and for us. Next time Opie needs treatment, we know where we are taking him.

What an awful night we had… But as awful as it was the staff was nothing short of amazing! Although our end result was unfavorable I appreciate all the support and compassion that was given to us. Great job

So this is the first review I have ever written about any place. My 1 yr old pitbull lab mix had hives all over his body and his face was extremely swollen. We walked in and within 20 minutes he was already being cared for. He was given a steroid shot for the swelling which worked like a miracle. We were sent home with some steroidal anti allergie & antibiotics for a paw fungus he had that we did even know about. Total time spent there was about an 1 hour and maybe a few minutes and it was pretty busy when we went in. Pricing is very reasonable and the staff is extremely nice and they genuinely care about you and your pet. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

We have used this vet 3 times. They are always kind, helpful and take great care of our dogs. We had to euthanize our dog who had cancer. They were so caring and gave us all options. They allowed us to take as much time as we needed to say goodbye and were so sympathetic. They treated our dog with dignity. I would highly recommend this vet for emergency services.

All you have to do is call and let them know you’re on your way. They took in my 5 year old boxer and she was out within two hours even with the critical patients they were dealing with while she was there. The entire staff to include the on call Dr at the time were all super genuine and polite. They discussed everything they were going to try and do with prices included in the plan. They also offer military discounts. They even followed up the next day to check on my dogs progress. Highly recommended if you want people who truly have a love for their job and do what they can to not try and break your bank!

My dog had a bad ear infection and she was seen promptly. Very clean and professional place. The doc that saw here was kind and helpful and explained things to me very well. They followed up with a call the next day checking in on her. The cost was also very reasonable. Would not hesitate to use them again.

Great to have an option when my dog was attacked on July 4^th. Staff was empathetic, communicated clearly and gave thorough care while taking care not to over-​treat. I asked about whether she needed pain meds and they suggested taking her home and watching her for signs of (neck) pain and calling later if I needed a prescription. I respected their care and feel fortunate to live in a community with 24 hour care.

I brought my dog in after midnight and was seen promptly. The staff was extremely friendly, helpful, and sympathetic. My little dog ended up having to stay for a 24 hour IV fluid treatment. Knowing how hard it was for me to leave her, Emilie invited me to stay with my dog in the nice little room with the couch, while my dog was hooked up to the drip machine receiving her treatment. She let me stay as long as I liked, and my dog was able to sleep peacefully in my lap during her treatment. Each time I would call to check in, everyone who answered the phone was extremely friendly to me. I’m grateful they took such great care, and that that everyone expressed how much they adored my little dog. My only complaint would be that I wished I had received additional after care instructions, but I suppose it is expected pet owners follow up with their regular vets since this is an emergency facility. Thanks, everyone!

The staff here are not medical professionals, they are estimators who basically spend the entire time with patients and their owners talking about «care plans» they put together with different «options» that are really not options but things your pet needs in order to survive whatever it is that brought you there. And, please don’t bring your animal here, these people are not humane. They care nothing about an animal experiencing pain, they care about collecting cash down payments before any services are rendered regardless of the shape the animal is in when you get there. I bought a cat in with a kitten stuck in her birth canal that she had been trying for over an hour to push out because that’s how far away I was by car to the closest 24 hour emergency vet. The vet, if you want to call her that left the kitten in there while she prepared two invoices and talked over «treatment options» including euthanasia for a cat that was perfectly healthy 24 hours before. She only needed the kitten removed, either manually or by C-​section, but even though the kitten was decaying and causing the cat’s uterus to become bloated and infected — this «vet» left the kitten there for over 4 hours, I was begging them to take it out — but they explained to me that they had «procedures» they needed to follow (most likely to determine how much the owner can spend) and that meant that they had to run tests first. It doesn’t take much education to understand that a kitten lodged in a cat’s birth canal needs to be removed. They kept saying, Oh we gave her pain medicine. Well, I don’t know how much pain medicine would take the trauma away from a cat that had this «thing» in her birth canal for hours. How would the vet feel if it was her that had a fetus stuck in her birth canal for hours? We were seen the night before by a vet who probably should have kept my cat for observation, but she claimed that she was healthy and the best thing would be for us to go home and have the remaining kittens in a familiar place. That was after $ 350 worth of tests like an ultrasound just to hear the kitten’s heart beat and an xray to check the positioning of the kittens. What good does this do if you send a cat home who has been in labor for almost 24 hours? The cat got into trouble trying to push the first of the last two kittens. This killed both the kittens, and may kill my cat too. I’ll be left to bottle feed the orphaned kittens who remain around the clock. And don’t attack me for letting my cat get pregnant, she was given to me as a mouser, unaltered, she was always somewhat of a feral cat, and never wanted to be held, would only come up to rub against my legs occasionally. Trust me I tried very hard to tame her, but something in her background had made her terrified of people. So she remained unaltered, a nice little mouser, never brought gruesome things in the house for me to see and never asked for much more than food and water. I am waiting now for my regular vet to open, so I can have her transferred. I paid close to $ 1,200 just for tests, no procedures. I’ll have to pay for the C-​section once I get her to a proper vet. I’m sure they can’t wait to be rid of her, and me. The practice must exist of test and euthanizing pets, once their owners can’t come up with hundreds and thousand of dollars in cash. I just came back to my draft after a week. My cat is doing okay now after a complete hysterectomy and antibiotics. I too my cat to a «sister» clinic which is down the road from this clinic. I did not know that they were a sister clinic until I looked it up. Apparently, my regular vet, this hospital and the sister clinic down the road all belong to the same person. You can look it up also. I can’t mention the person’s name here apparently. He owns about 7 clinics in the area. So make sure the one you choose is NOT on the list. Otherwise you may get good service once, but then in the middle of the night be referred to Olympia Pet Emergency.

I love this place! My boxer, Rita, broke her paw playing too hard. OPE is a ²⁴⁄₇ clinic, and was the only place open on Sunday. We were seen as soon as we walked in. The staff genuinely love pets. They worked with my budget to get Rita the best care possible without putting me out too much. They admitted Rita for two hours and when I returned, she was happy and had a good splint on along with meds to help her feel better. The icing on the cake was when they called three days later to see how she was doing. I highly suggest OPE for fast, great care.

Best veterinary experience ever! The staff is so kind and helpful. You can tell they truly care about animals here. They made me and my husband feel at ease as soon as they started to check on our puppy. I’m so glad we came here. Now I know who to trust when another emergency occurs with our little furry friend. (Knocking on wood for that to never happen again)

We had such a wonderful experience here. The staff were all very helpful and knowledgeable. We have a dwarf hamster and most clinics are not able or experienced in handling these animals. Dr. Chris Bailey gave our hamster a quick exam and presented our options to us in a very informed and compassionate matter. I appreciate the care they gave our pet and the kindness they showed our family. I would highly recommend this clinic for your pet needs.

This was my first experience with Olympia Pet Emergency and it was extremely positive. No one wants to have an after hours emergency when your normal veterinarian’s office is closed; it can be overwhelming but sometimes it can’t be helped. After finding their listing, I called to verify the location of the clinic and received prompt and courteous service along with detailed directions of how to find the clinic. Upon my arrival I was greeted promptly and compassionately, and my pet was quickly taken into the surgical area for treatment. I was also taken into an exam room to wait while my pet received treatment. The staff was great about keeping me informed while my pet was treated for its wounds, and everyone was professional and sympathetic. The care I received for my pet was great, and it was a very positive experience considering the circumstances.
The facility is very clean and well maintained, and they have a nice waiting room with coffee and free Wi-Fi.The fees were very reasonable and I was pleasantly surprised to find out that they offer a military discount. If I am ever in the need for after hours emergency pet care, this will be my first choice.

Took our Doberman there yesterday. The entire staff was kind, informative, caring!
The care is quite affordable as emergency hospitals go!
I would highly recommend this animal hospital to anyone!

My 6 yr old cat woke from laying beside me to start yowling/​screaming in pain. I rushed to get the cat carrier because his scream was so loud I knew something was VERY wrong. By the time I came back from the garage, he was unconscious. I was hysterical. Brought my limp, listless cat into the lobby of Olympia Pet Emergency. IMMEDIATELY the recpetionist took Milo from me and rushed him back to a room where 4 people stood by to administer to him. The team started doing CPR. Unfortunately my cat died. Somehow the immediate response and attention made Milo’s passing a bit easier to accept. I knew they had done all they could and wasted no time.
The team was caring, respectful and kind. I am so grateful to them. I can’t tell you how amazing it was to see them jump into action. They helped me. They took over when I could not. I am so thankful for their skills.
Where would ANYONE go after hours for their pet? Where? This is a life saving clinic that I am thankful exists.
Highly recommend and desperately needed =)
Thank you.
