Our Story

Drs. Blake and Franz have known each other since veterinary school at WSU and had been tossing around the idea of opening a practice for several years. They met Dr. Dahl at her first job out of veterinary school and discovered that she, too, shared a passion for urgent care and had a goal of one day owning a practice.

Shortly after the COVID-19 pandemic, what used to be a dream started to take shape. It was troubling to see general practitioners so overwhelmed by appointment requests that pets had to wait weeks when sick. At the same time, emergency rooms were so inundated with critical cases that there just wasn't enough time to attend to anything that was non-emergent and stable.

Capital Pet Urgent Care was created to help ease the load on both sides. Our facility is designed to help clients and their pets get help quickly while freeing up the 24-hour facilities to continue assisting the sickest and most critical pets. We aim to provide high-quality medical care when you need it and then get you back to your trusted regular veterinarian.
