PetPal Philippines 1st all-in-one Pet Care App

 

A Social Weather Stations survey in Q1 2023 showed that a staggering 64% of Filipino households own pets. However, according to Petpal data, there are only about 12,900 veterinarians and 329 clinics across the country – with the vet-pet ratio at 1:310, underlining a huge gap in pet care in the country.

 

PetPal recognized the stark contrast between supply and demand, and set out with a mission—to completely digitize the pet care experience. Emphasizing digital innovation, the app aims to democratize pet healthcare, breaking down barriers related to location, transportation, and vet availability.

 

Moving forward, PetPal plans to roll out additional online features such as a pet marketplace, pharmacy, insurance portal, and pet hotels. Already making an impact with more than 10,000 pets and 9,000 pet owners served, PetPal is committed to continuous innovation in the pet care sector.

 

Pet owners can now download the PetPal super app from the App Store or Google Play, register their pets, and embark on a seamless healthcare journey.
