ABOUT US

Built from real vet experience—to bring care back to what matters.

CoVet was built by dedicated veterinarians, engineers, and systems thinkers who deeply understood the cost of administrative overload in veterinary life—how it steals time, fuels burnout, and dims the joy that draws so many to this profession. So we designed a solution we knew could dramatically improve daily life in practice—and help protect the purpose and passion behind the work.

 

Now trusted by thousands of clinics worldwide, CoVet automates SOAPs, summarizes histories, and streamlines communication—helping you work smarter, care better, and reclaim your time.

Mission (What we do every day)

We empower veterinary professionals by eliminating administrative burden—so they can deliver better care, avoid burnout, and stay focused on their patients.
