HUG A PET — HUG A PET is a first of a kind marketplace in the pet healthcare mobility sector in Germany. Our goal is to offer convenience, save time and eliminate stress of pet owners by bringing pet healthcare to their doorstep. It is an easy appointment booking platform for pet owners to book verified mobile vets who will visit your home. Why are we sopassionate about this ? We understand how terrifying it can be for your pets to visit a Veterinary. Plus there are always these fear of whether the Vet is competent enough, whether the people at the clinic are friendly enough, whether the problem your pet is facing can be easily diagnosed, whether you will have to hop around and visit different Vets for the same problem you are facing. Then there is the question of time. No-one likes to travel all the way to the vet clinic and then wait for hours to finally get the Vet’s attention. With HUG A PET, you book fixed appointment, the consultation is as long as your pet needs it in the comfort of your home or office and your pet gets a personalized attention. We are disrupting the current pet healthcare quality and bringing comfort, personalized experience and superior quality to the pet owners. Our Mission: Our mission for HUG A PET is simple : to attract, nurture and grow the world's best mobile health care providers for pets via our platform and compliment that with exceptional customer service. We are working hard to create a technology where we can support the Veterinarians to reach the pet owners faster, provide them with updated pet's medical and psychological history on their mobile device, and act as an operational ninja that constantly collaborates with latest status between the pet owner and the vet on-the-go. Our goal is to leapfrog and create substantial pet health care improvements, one customer at a time. We have a strict vetting process where we pick the most recommended mobile veterinarians and onboard them on our database.
