Common questions
What are some good veterinarians in St. Louis?
The best fit depends on your pet and your schedule. Use the cards on this page to narrow the list by species, hours and rating, then read each clinic's newest reviews for repeated praise or complaints about communication and billing. Call two or three, ask about new-patient openings and after-hours plans, and book a wellness visit to see how the team works before you need it.
Can I walk into a vet in St. Louis without an appointment?
Most clinics on this page book appointments, so call first and ask for a same-day sick visit. UrgentVet takes walk-ins for urgent problems in the late afternoon and evening on weekdays and during the day on weekends. It is urgent care, not an overnight emergency hospital. For breathing trouble, collapse or possible poisoning, go straight to an emergency hospital.
What is the difference between an urgent care vet and an emergency vet?
An emergency hospital treats life-threatening problems at any hour and can keep pets overnight. An urgent care clinic handles problems that cannot wait for your regular vet but are not life-threatening, and it closes at night. If you are unsure which one you need, call before you go. Our 24 hour emergency vet guide explains the difference in detail.
Is there a 24 hour vet in St. Louis?
None of the clinics listed on this page is a 24/7 emergency hospital. Ask your regular vet where it sends after-hours cases and save that number now. Our 24 hour emergency vet guide lists the hospitals that stay open overnight and explains when urgent care is enough.
Where can I find an exotic vet in St. Louis?
St Louis Veterinary Center lists exotics, rabbits and reptiles among the animals it treats. MetroVet St. Louis lists rabbits. Exotic care varies a lot by species, so call before booking and confirm the clinic sees your type of pet, whether a veterinarian on staff has experience with it, and where they refer exotic patients after hours.
What is MetroVet?
MetroVet St. Louis is a primary care veterinary clinic listed on this page that also offers urgent care for dogs and cats, along with wellness care, surgery, dentistry and diagnostics. It is open weekdays during the day, not overnight or on weekends, so it does not replace an emergency hospital. Call ahead to ask about same-day openings for a sick pet.
