Two Animal Hospitals.
One Mission for Exceptional Veterinary Care.
Denver Metro Animal Hospital and Urgent Care brings our Aurora and Commerce City veterinary hospitals together with one shared goal: providing veterinary medicine that fits the individual pet rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach.
Our Aurora location has served its community since 1960, while our Commerce City location became part of the family in 2010. Today, both independently owned animal hospitals provide care for dogs and cats while giving local families the flexibility to choose the location that works best for them.

Same-Day Drop-Off Urgent Care
When your pet wakes up sick, gets hurt, or suddenly starts acting unlike themselves, waiting several days for an appointment may not feel like an option.
Denver Metro Animal Hospital and Urgent Care offers same-day urgent care through drop-off appointments. Simply bring your pet in for the day, and our veterinary team will evaluate their condition, determine what may be happening, and contact you with recommended next steps and treatment options.
What Can You Expect During Your Pet’s Visit?
At Denver Metro Animal Hospital and Urgent Care, we make your pet’s care as convenient and comfortable as possible. Our drop-off model allows you to leave your pet in the hands of our compassionate veterinary team while you focus on your busy day.
Throughout the visit, our veterinarians and care team will keep you informed with updates and phone calls, discussing findings and recommended treatments with you before proceeding with any care that requires your approval.
By streamlining check-in and minimizing time spent in the lobby, we also aim to reduce wait times and limit your pet’s exposure to other dogs.
From drop-off to pick-up, you can expect thoughtful communication, personalized care, and a team committed to keeping you involved in every step of your pet’s visit.
What Veterinary Services Does Denver Metro Animal Hospital and Urgent Care Offer?
Denver Metro Animal Hospital and Urgent Care provides a wide range of veterinary services, covering everything from preventive care to surgical, dental, and chronic needs. Our approach starts with what your pet needs today while keeping their longer-term health in view.
Urgent Care
When your pet is feeling unwell, prompt care can make all the difference. We evaluate a range of urgent health concerns, from vomiting and diarrhea to minor injuries and sudden changes in behavior, to help determine the best course of treatment.
Dental Care
Dental disease can cause discomfort and may potentially lead to organ damage. We provide professional dental cleanings, comprehensive examinations, extractions, and minor oral surgery when needed.
Our team performs a range of soft tissue procedures in-house, including many more involved surgical cases. Orthopedic surgeries, such as TPLO and others, are done by a trusted board-certified surgeon. When a procedure requires care outside our capabilities, we can coordinate an appropriate referral.
Wellness Exams
Preventive care helps keep your pet healthy and comfortable at every stage of life. We offer customized wellness plans with routine exams, vaccinations, screenings, and preventive care to help catch potential concerns early and support long-term health.
Meet the People Caring for Your Pet
Good veterinary medicine requires listening closely to the person who knows the patient best: you.
Our veterinary team takes an individualized approach to each appointment rather than assuming the same plan will work for every dog or cat. We want to know what has changed, what you’ve noticed at home, and what matters most to you before we recommend next steps.
From preventive visits to unexpected illness and surgical care, our doctors and support team work together to help you make informed decisions for your pet.
