24/7 Emergency Vet & Animal Hospital in Dundee, IL

24/7 Emergency Vet

Emergencies can happen anywhere at any time. We hope that this will never be the case for your pet, but if your pet does need an emergency vet, you should be prepared. Our Dundee veterinarian offers 24 hour emergency vet services seven days a week. Our experienced staff works on call to provide emergency care when your pet needs it most.

If your pet is not a regular patient, we’re more than happy to work with their primary care veterinarian. Detailed reports explain your pet’s condition, test results, medications given, follow-up recommendations and more. Should your pet require specialized care, we can communicate with specialists in the area to find the best option.

Open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year including holidays.

***PLEASE NOTE: We do NOT see exotics, avians, reptiles, or pocket pets for emergencies.***

I've tried a few great vets in the area over the past few decades. I choose Dundee Animal Hospital because the vets are incredibly talented and experienced. Having an emergency clinic in Dundee as part of their practice group has given me peace of mind that's been irreplaceable when we've needed it- with a team that already has our medical records and history and knows our animals. Invaluable.

I brought my soul dog in for an emergency visit on a Friday night and the day I've dreaded for 12 years finally came. Kerry the emergency tech and Dr. Gurevich were so incredibly kind and empathetic to me and my girl. They gave me time and sweet, wise words and sent a beautiful card in the mail the following week. The front desk staff was also wonderful to me. I wish the circumstances were different but I very much appreciate how the staff took care every step of the way. Everyone hug your sweet furry ones for me, and if you need a place to go I wholeheartedly recommend Dundee Animal Hospital <3
Dundee Animal Hospital has been our veterinary choice for over 20 years and 3 dogs, both in the Dundee and Algonquin locations. Dr. O'Brien has helped guide us through the challenges of caring for our aging pets and new pups. She has always taken the time to fully explain our pets' conditions and has been prompt in notifying us of lab results, ensuring a trust in quality of service. Highly recommended.

Thank you to the friendly lady at the front desk, the great vet tech who helped me out to the car, and especially Dr. O'Brien, who takes such wonderful care of my precious Raven II. I appreciate all of you, and even though Raven was upset about having to come in, she's just being a cat. You know deep down inside she appreciates you all too! She knows very well how much better she feels after her visits 🙂
