About Us:

Smart.Vet is a provider of telehealth services in the veterinary industry, offering innovative solutions to pet care. Our mission is to deliver accessible, high-quality care to pets and their owners through a virtual environment. Over 70% of pet health concerns can be effectively addressed through virtual consultations, allowing us to provide timely and convenient care.

We are dedicated to collaborating with animal hospitals by enhancing their in-person services, extending care availability and easing the workload on brick-and-mortar practices. Our goal is to support overburdened hospitals by providing patient care when it's needed most, whether during regular hours or after. We're not here to compete—we're here to collaborate. While we've grown, we maintain a "mom and pop" culture and mentality, valuing personal relationships, and fostering a close-knit, supportive work environment.
