No at most vet facilities they do not have any staff staying overnight with the animals that stay their overnight.

The pets are mostly left alone after hours but usually the pets or animals are safe and in a quiet environment so there's usually no harm.

Most common vets do not have the staff nor budget to have someone present around the clock with your animal so when you leave your pet at a vet overnight it's very unlikely someone will be with the pet around the clock or overnight.

However some vets such as emergency animal hospitals usually have staff at the animal hospital around the clock if the animal hospital is open around the clock or 24/7.

Those animal hospitals that are open 24 hours and staffed around the clock would have someone there to watch the pet 24 hours per day but they will be more expensive.

Usually pet insurance will cover the cost of the stay at the animal hospital so it can be a good idea to have pet health insurance in place in the event your dog, cat or other pet gets sick or injured and needs emergency treatment.
