Founded by Dr. William Hodges to offer the community emergency care, surgical procedures, end-of-life and a wide spectrum of other urgent veterinary needs. Exciting news for Missouri City pets—LocalVet Urgent Care will be the newest clinic in Missouri City, Texas, slated for early summer 2025! The new clinic will provide urgent care services for pets, offering quick and compassionate medical attention when it’s needed most. A core value of LocalVet Urgent Care is offering a spectrum of options for your pet’s veterinary care. Dr. Hodges believes that every pet—and their human—are unique, and so are their medical needs. Whether it’s emergency care, surgical procedures, or end-of-life options, the clinic will ensure that every pet receives tailored care that is both compassionate and comprehensive. At LocalVet Urgent care we will have options. Founded by Dr. William Hodges (Dr WHO), a Texas A&M University (TAMU) grad with over 10 years of practice in emergency medicine. Dr. WHO is excited to offer high-quality, complete care for his patients. His experience in emergency care and his dedication to ensuring pets receive the best treatment in times of need will be the driving force behind LocalVet Urgent Care. Coming from the emergency veterinary world, Dr. WHO also understands the extent of care that needs to be available when the unexpected occurs. After-Hours Care
LocalVet Urgent Care will operate from noon to 10 PM, providing after-hours services when other veterinary clinics may be closed. This ensures that your pet can receive the care they need, even during evenings or weekends.

🎃🐾 THE COSTUMES ARE CUTE. THE UNSUPERVISED DECISIONS? FRIGHTENING.

Halloween weekend is here, and somewhere there’s a dachshund dressed as a hot dog plotting a candy heist while a cat in a witch hat plots revenge against the entire household. 🌭🐈‍⬛

Here at LocalVet Urgent Care, we’re ready for the sweet faces behind those very questionable choices. Because nothing interrupts a Halloween movie quite like hearing a wrapper crinkle… when everyone else is sitting on the couch. 👀🍫

🚨 If your dog gets into chocolate, call us right away and bring them in promptly! Chocolate is toxic to dogs, and you shouldn’t wait for symptoms—even if your little candy thief seems perfectly fine. Bring the packaging if you have it, and let us know what they ate, about how much, and when. Their dramatic performance of “I have never seen that candy bowl in my life” can wait.

Keep the treats and wrappers out of paw’s reach, watch those sneaky counter surfers, and remember: a dog wearing angel wings is still fully capable of criminal activity. 😇🐶

We’re here all weekend for chocolate capers, upset tummies, itchy ears, unexpected wounds, and limps that definitely weren’t part of the pirate costume. 🏴‍☠️🐾

We hope your Halloween is full of happy tails, adorable costumes, and absolutely no reason to say, “Well, that’s going to be a vet visit.” But if it happens, you know where to find us. 🧡👻

🐾 Big heart, bright mind, and a pet roster that sounds like the start of a very interesting Disney movie… meet BETHANY! 🦔🐢🐈🦎

We’re giving this incredible member of our LocalVet Urgent Care team some well-deserved vet tech appreciation! 💛 With nearly SEVEN years in veterinary medicine, Bethany brings a love for animals, a passion for learning, and a willingness to share her knowledge that make her worth celebrating.

She graduated from the Vet Tech Institute of Houston in 2020, passed her Veterinary Technician National Examination in November 2024, and is now working toward becoming a Certified Veterinary Practice Manager. Because apparently caring for an entire animal kingdom wasn’t enough—she needed another goal to conquer. 👏📚

Speaking of her kingdom, her family includes:
🐈 Inoske the cat
🦔 Hedwig the hedgehog
🐢 Rebecca the tortoise
🦎 Frejoles the bearded dragon
🫧 Toothless, Goldie, and Guac the axolotls
🐡 Picas the pufferfish

Fur, scales, spikes, and gills—Bethany believes in a diversified household. 😂

When she isn’t caring for patients or her own little zoo, you can find her reading, watching anime, or playing soccer alongside her husband on their co-ed team. Saving chapters, cheering on characters, and chasing goals? A well-rounded queen. ⚽📖✨

Bethany, thank you for the heart you put into veterinary medicine, your enthusiasm for growing, and everything you share with our team. We’re so glad you’re part of the LocalVet family! 🩺💛

Help us show Bethany some love in the comments! 👇🐾

Meet LocalVet Urgent Care’s unofficial security guard! 🐊👮‍♂️

This little guy lives in the creek out front, pays absolutely no rent, and spends his days supervising with a suspicious amount of side-eye. His qualifications? Excellent camouflage, a toothy smile, and a strict “please admire me from a distance” policy. 😂

We offered him a receptionist position, but apparently “greeting patients” and “taste-testing patients” needed more clarification. So… creek supervisor it is. 💚

If you spot our scaly neighbor, give him plenty of space, keep pets leashed and away from the creek, and let him enjoy his waterfront property in peace!

Meanwhile, our team INSIDE is here for your furry friends when unexpected illnesses and injuries interrupt their regularly scheduled mischief. 🐾

🐾🖤 TWO TECHS. ABOUT 30 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE. AN UNDISCLOSED AMOUNT OF COFFEE. ☕🐾

It’s Vet Tech Week, and we’re celebrating the two women who make up our full-time technician team here at LocalVet Urgent Care: Tara and Kayla! 🎉

Between them, they bring about THREE DECADES of veterinary experience, a whole lot of compassion, and the ability to keep going long after their coffee has gone cold. Which it has. Again. 😂

If you’ve ever wondered who’s behind the blood draws, IV catheters, patient monitoring, cozy blankets, gentle reassurance, and “let’s get you feeling better, sweet baby” conversations… meet your girls. 🩺❤️

Veterinary technicians wear a lot of hats. They help care for sick patients, comfort worried families, assist with procedures, clean up things we probably shouldn’t describe while you’re eating, and somehow still find time to tell your pet how ridiculously cute they are.

And yes, your pet has probably received an entire pep talk back there. Possibly a nickname. Definitely compliments. 🐶🐱

Outside their black scrubs, Tara and Kayla share a love of coffee, cats, good books, and their families. Their ideal downtime includes a good story, a cat who respects personal space approximately never, and time with the people they love. 📚☕🐈

At work, their storylines tend to involve fewer peaceful reading breaks and more “What did you eat?” and “How did you even manage that?” Plot twists are practically part of the job description. 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

But underneath the humor is a deep love for this work. It takes skill, patience, heart, and resilience to care for animals through uncomfortable, scary, and vulnerable moments. It also takes a gentle touch to help their humans through those moments, too.

Tara and Kayla, thank you for the knowledge you bring, the details you notice, the compassion you give, and the care you put into patients who can’t tell us what hurts. You make a difference in the lives of pets and the families who love them. 🖤

Help us show these two some love in the comments! If Tara or Kayla has cared for your pet, we’d love to hear your shout-out. 👇🐾

Happy Vet Tech Week from LocalVet Urgent Care! May your coffee be strong, your patients be cooperative, and your next chapter include an uninterrupted lunch. ☕📚✨

Happy Wednesday! You’re halfway through the week. Your pet is halfway through a questionable decision. 🐾🙃

The dog has dismantled a toy. The cat is judging everyone. And you’re just trying to make it to Friday without an unexpected plot twist.

If today’s antics come with vomiting, diarrhea, limping, itchy ears, a wound, or your pet just isn’t acting like themselves, give LocalVet Urgent Care a call. Cute faces don’t come with good decision-making skills. Luckily, they come with us. 💙

We’re here today from 2 PM–10 PM, ready to help your favorite little troublemaker feel better.

Monday called. Your dog ate the memo. Your cat declined the meeting. 🐶🐱📞

We hope your week starts with tail wags and zero plot twists—but if your pet has other plans, LocalVet Urgent Care is here! 💛

From upset tummies and itchy ears to unexpected limping and wounds, we’re ready to help when Monday gets a little too Monday.

🐾 The sock is not a snack.
🐾 The limp deserves a look.
🐾 The cat would like to speak to management. That last one might just be a personality trait. 😼

We’re open today from 2 PM–10 PM. Save our number—you never know when your furry coworker might cause an unexpected interruption!

A banana toy, a missing sock, and one sore paw… welcome to life at LocalVet Urgent Care! 🐾💙

🍌 Our big grey-and-white friend took “go bananas” a little too literally and ate a banana toy. Sir, the pretend fruit is for fetching, not snacking. 😂

🧦 Our patient on the surgery table helped solve the mystery of the missing sock. Turns out, the dryer has been falsely accused. That laundry snack landed this pup in surgery—and kept our team busy.

🐾 And our sweet Doberman girl injured her back foot, earning herself some gentle care and extra cuddles. Even the toughest-looking girls need someone to hold their paw. 🥹

All jokes aside, we know how scary it is when your pet is hurt or eats something they shouldn’t. Behind these photos is a team caring for every patient with love, compassion, and a whole lot of dedication. ❤️

When your pet’s plans take an unexpected turn, we’re here to help—even after many primary vet offices have closed for the day.

Keep the socks in the hamper, keep an eye on those toys, and keep our number handy. Your pets clearly have their own ideas. 😉🐶

Today’s patient came for care and left with two new best friends… and a very fashionable satellite dish. 🐶📡

The cone may be temporary, but the extra attention is nonnegotiable. Around here, we take care of the whole pet—even when they’re convinced the cone is a personal insult. 💛
