Welcome to EVCC Holland

To animal lovers, our furry companions are more than just pets; they are part of our families. We at Emergency Veterinary Care Centers (EVCC) understand that when a pet is in distress, it can be an emotional and overwhelming experience for the entire household.

While larger cities like Grand Rapids have emergency veterinary services covered the smaller surrounding communities tend to get overlooked, making emergency care either hard to find or even completely inaccessible. We strive to bridge that gap by making high-quality, compassionate emergency veterinary care available closer to home.

Areas Served

At EVCC Holland, we provide dedicated, skilled emergency veterinary care for pets in Holland and across west Michigan, in areas such as: 

Whether you’re a resident or a vacationer, your pet deserves immediate, reliable medical help in an emergency. That’s why we’re here 24/7, 365 days a year to administer compassionate, trusted care and treatment. If your pet is experiencing an emergency, don’t wait—call us or come in immediately.
