Your vet handles the big stuff.
We handle everything in between.

Sidekick Vet gives pet owners on-demand access to licensed veterinarians for triage and guidance — without the wait, the subscription, or the ER bill.

Why we built this

Pet emergencies don't happen during business hours. They happen at 11pm on a Tuesday, on a holiday weekend, or the one day your vet is booked solid. And when they do, pet owners are left with two options: panic-Google their way through conflicting advice, or drive to the emergency room and spend $400 to hear "they'll be fine."

We built Sidekick Vet because there should be a middle option. A real vet, available right now, who can tell you whether you need to worry — and what to do next.

What we believe

  • 1 Your vet is the hero. We're the sidekick. We never try to replace your primary vet — we help between visits.
  • 2 Real vets, not chatbots. Every consultation is with a licensed veterinarian with at least 5 years of clinical experience.
  • 3 No subscriptions. Pay when you need us. That's it. No monthly fees, no auto-renewals.
  • 4 Transparency first. Every visit generates a summary you can share with your regular vet.
