Across the Peninsula, daytime veterinary practices keep weekday hours and refer urgent and advanced cases elsewhere. CARE fills that gap for the region. Find your community below for local drive times, landmarks, and answers specific to where you are coming from.

Emergency Vet Care Across the Virginia Peninsula
The Virginia Peninsula stretches from Williamsburg and the Historic Triangle down through York County and Newport News, and CARE serves families across all of it. Our hospital on John Tyler Highway in Williamsburg is a regional resource for weekend emergencies and advanced care, drawing pet owners from across the Peninsula when local practices are closed or a case needs more than routine treatment. Whichever community you are coming from, call (757) 703-0199 before you arrive. Choose your specific area below for drive times and local detail.
