Pet Vomiting & Diarrhea Treatment in Lake Buena Vista, FL, From Your Local Vet

Petfolk Veterinary & Urgent Care - Lake Buena Vista is a vet in Lake Buena Vista, FL, that treats dogs and cats with vomiting or diarrhea, often the same day. Most upset stomachs pass with simple care. The goal of a visit is to find the ones that won't, and to get your pet eating and comfortable again.

Call (321) 621-6905, book online, or walk in. The clinic is open weekends.

When is vomiting or diarrhea a reason for the 24-hour hospital?

Skip the clinic and drive to a 24-hour emergency hospital if your pet:

• tries to vomit again and again but brings nothing up, with a swollen belly

• vomits blood or passes a lot of blood in the stool

• collapses, has pale gums, or can't stand

• may have eaten a toxin, a battery or a large object

• is a puppy or kitten that is limp and won't eat

The Veterinary Emergency Clinic of Central Florida keeps a 24-hour hospital on W Colonial Drive in Oakland. Call them as you leave so they can be ready.

Can my pet be seen today for an upset stomach?

Yes, in most cases. Same-day visits are often open at Petfolk Lake Buena Vista, and walk-ins are welcome. Book a visit if vomiting or diarrhea lasts more than a day, keeps coming back, or comes with low energy or a skipped meal.

I needed to get my pup in on a Sunday and our regular vet is closed.

Cats and very small dogs can dry out faster than big dogs, so don't wait as long with them.

Why stomach trouble is common on a trip

A lot of the pets we see in this part of southwest Orlando are on vacation. A new kibble, hotel treats, a long car ride and the stress of a strange room can all upset a stomach. Diet changes on the road are one of the most common triggers for loose stool in dogs.

Water is another one. Orange County health officials have flagged blue-green algae more than once this year. On Aug 14, 2026, DOH-Orange issued a health alert for algae toxins in Lake Formosa, and on Oct 21, 2026, it put out a caution for Willoughby Canal, east of Lake Conway. Its advice is to keep pets away from water with a bloom, which can look like scum, foam or spilled paint. If your dog drinks or swims in water like that and then vomits or has diarrhea, tell the vet right away.

What will the vet check?

1. A team member asks when it started, how often it happens, and what your pet ate.

2. The vet checks hydration, gums, temperature and the belly.

3. If needed, the vet suggests a stool test, blood work or x-rays to look for parasites, infection or a blockage.

4. You'll get an estimate before any test or treatment. The final bill can differ if the plan changes during the visit.

5. You leave with a plan, which may include anti-nausea medicine, a bland diet and the signs that mean "come back."

The in-house lab gives many results during the visit. To learn what those tests show, see pet blood work and lab testing in Lake Buena Vista. Fear Free handling keeps the visit calm for a pet that already feels sick.

Bring these to the visit

• A photo of the vomit or stool (it helps more than you'd think)

• The food bag or a photo of the label, plus any new treats

• A list of medicines and the date of the last dewormer

• Any wrapper or packaging if your pet chewed something

If you're staying at a hotel or a rental, a quick note on where your dog walked or swam is useful too.

A sick or urgent exam starts at $135. Tests and medicine are added only after you agree to them. PetfolkCare membership starts at $199 a year and includes a 24/7 care team by chat, so you can ask whether a loose stool needs a visit.
