Emergency Vet in Dubai — Our Line Is Answered 24/7

If something is wrong right now, call +971 54 888 3686. A veterinarian answers day and night, and the treatment room is ready before you reach Al Quoz 3.

Triage first

Call, then drive — in that order

If you are searching for an emergency vet near me at 2 AM, you need two things: a phone somebody actually answers, and a clinic that can treat rather than refer. Petbook Veterinary Clinic in Al Quoz 3 has both — the emergency line is answered 24/7 by the veterinary team, not a call centre.

Call before you drive. Two minutes on the phone tells us what is coming through the door, lets a vet talk you through first aid on the way, and means the treatment room is ready when you arrive. Our in-house laboratory, digital X-ray, ultrasound and operating theatre are in one building, so an urgent case is assessed, diagnosed and stabilized in the same place.

The consultation is AED 75 and you see an estimate before major treatment — the rest of our published fees are on the vet prices in Dubai page. If your pet is stable and can safely wait until morning, book a same-day appointment instead. We are minutes from Sheikh Zayed Road, serving Al Quoz, Al Barsha, Business Bay, Jumeirah and Dubai Marina.

    I highly recommend this veterinary clinic! They truly care about pets as if they were their own babies. Every time my cats have been sick, the team has always followed up to check on their recovery & see if they needed anything else. That level of care & compassion means so much to me 🤍

    I had a wonderful experience at Petbook Veterinary Clinic in Al Quoz with my 9-month-old male Turkish Angora cat, Meiko. A special thank you to Dr. Emad and Miss Charrie for their excellent care, kindness, patience, and professionalism.

    I had all three of my cats vaccinated at this clinic, and I couldn't be happier with the service. The veterinarians and staff were very professional, gentle, and caring with my cats, making the entire experience smooth and stress-free.

What an emergency visit costs

You see the cost before we start

Consultation AED 75, and a clear estimate for anything beyond it — approved by you first.

The standard consultation is AED 75. Everything after that depends on what your pet actually needs — stabilization, imaging, bloodwork or surgery — so we quote it before we start and never begin major treatment without your approval. For a specific procedure, message us on WhatsApp for a same-day quote.

From your call to a plan

What happens from the moment you call

Six steps, in this order. The first one is the one that saves the most time — call before you drive.

  1. Step 01

    Call the line

    Tell us what happened and what you can see. A veterinarian answers day and night, and stays on the line with first aid guidance while someone else drives.

  2. Step 02

    We prepare while you travel

    Treatment room, oxygen and fluids are set up before you arrive — nothing is being fetched while your pet waits.

  3. Step 03

    Triage at the door

    Assessment starts on arrival, not at the end of a queue: breathing, circulation, temperature and pain first.

  4. Step 04

    Stabilize before anything else

    Oxygen, IV fluids and pain relief come before paperwork and before diagnostics. Comfort is treatment, not an extra.

  5. Step 05

    Same-visit diagnostics

    Bloodwork, digital X-ray and ultrasound run in the building — results in the same visit, not the next day.

  6. Step 06

    A plan and an estimate

    You get what we found, what we recommend and what it costs, in plain language, before major treatment begins.

One building, one team

Nothing gets referred out mid-crisis.

The reason a call at midnight is worth making is what sits behind the door: an in-house laboratory, digital X-ray, ultrasound, an equipped operating theatre and a hospitalization area — all in the same clinic, staffed by licensed veterinarians.

  • Bloodwork run on site — results in the same visit
  • Digital X-ray and ultrasound without a second appointment
  • Surgery and overnight monitoring under one roof
Dubai emergencies

The emergencies Dubai actually sends us

Emergency medicine here has a local shape. These are the calls that fill our nights — most of them seasonal, most of them specific to how pets live in this city.

  • Heatstroke, May to September

    Ten minutes on a balcony or in a parked car is enough. Flat-faced breeds — French Bulldogs, Pugs, Persians — go down fastest.

  • Burnt paw pads

    Pavement and sand reach temperatures that blister pads in seconds. Walk after dark, and test the ground with your hand first.

  • Tick fever after a desert walk

    The brown dog tick is established in the UAE. Weakness, pale gums or fever days after a walk needs blood work, not waiting.

  • Falls from tower balconies

    High-rise living means unscreened balconies and windows. Cats often survive the fall and still have chest and jaw injuries you cannot see.

  • Poisons in an air-conditioned flat

    Lilies, chocolate, xylitol gum, rodent bait and human painkillers are the five we treat most. Bring the packet or plant with you.

  • Blocked bladders in indoor cats

    Dry food, low water intake and indoor stress make urinary blockage common in male cats — and it turns fatal in a day or two.

While you drive

What to do in the first five minutes

General first aid only, and none of it replaces the phone call. Do what you can safely do, then come straight in.

  • Heatstroke: move to shade or AC and wet the paws, ears and belly with room-temperature water — never ice
  • Poisoning: bring the packet, box or plant with you, and don't make your pet vomit unless a vet tells you to
  • Bleeding: press a clean cloth firmly on the wound and keep the pressure on for the whole drive
  • Seizure: clear the space around your pet, keep hands away from the mouth, and note the time it started
Don't wait until morning

Call now if you see any of these

None of these improve with time. If your pet has one of them, call the line and start driving.

  • Difficulty breathing, choking, or blue or pale gums
  • Collapse, a seizure, or a sudden inability to stand
  • Straining to urinate with nothing coming out — critical in male cats
  • A bloated, hard belly with restlessness or unproductive retching
  • Suspected poisoning, a road accident, or a fall from height
  • Repeated vomiting or diarrhea, especially with blood

Common questions

Where can I find an emergency vet clinic in Dubai?

Petbook Veterinary Clinic is at The Curve Building, Shop G08, Sheikh Zayed Road, Al Quoz 3 — minutes from Al Barsha, Business Bay and Jumeirah. Our line, +971 54 888 3686, is answered 24/7 by the veterinary team: call as you leave and we prepare before you arrive.

Are emergency vets any good?

What matters is whether the clinic can finish the job. Ask one question on the phone: are the laboratory, imaging and operating theatre in the same building? At Petbook they are, so an urgent case is stabilized, diagnosed and treated in one place instead of being sent on while the clock runs.

What's the difference between a vet and a vet hospital?

A clinic sees appointments; a hospital also admits patients and monitors them. Petbook does both — consultations and surgery, plus a hospitalization area with monitoring for pets that need to stay in, and updates while your pet is with us.

How much is a vet in Dubai?

At Petbook the consultation is AED 75. What an emergency costs after that depends on what your pet needs — fluids, imaging, bloodwork or surgery — so we give you an estimate before major treatment and you approve it first. Our published routine prices are on the vet prices page.

Do vets offer payment plans?

We don't publish a payment-plan scheme. What we do is show the cost before treatment starts and tell you honestly what has to happen tonight and what can safely wait. To spread routine care across the year, our memberships are AED 999 Silver, AED 2,999 Gold and AED 4,999 Platinum.
