Your vet said specialist.

From the founder

Why we built this

A friend's dog needed a specialist surgeon. Their vet didn't know who to refer them to. They spent three weeks reading forums in two languages, comparing surgeons across three countries, second-guessing every choice.

That shouldn't be how it works. Finding the right specialist for your pet shouldn't depend on your Google skills, your language, or which day of the week you happened to call.

PetCareReferral exists to do that work for you — quickly, honestly, and free.

Why this is free

You never pay us. Clinics do — and only when a case books.

  • No fee for submitting a case. No fee for getting matched.
  • Clinics pay a small placement fee only when your case converts to a booking.
  • We only succeed when you find care that actually works.
