Frequently asked
What can a vet help with online?+
Most non-emergency concerns: behaviour, diet, mild skin or digestive issues, prescription refills, second opinions, and triage. A vet may recommend an in-person visit if your pet's case needs hands-on examination.
When should I go in person instead?+
Emergencies — sudden collapse, severe trauma, difficulty breathing, suspected poisoning, ongoing seizures, or anything you'd describe as life-threatening. Petolina vets will tell you immediately if your case needs urgent in-clinic care.
Are the vets licensed?+
Yes. Every vet on Petolina is licensed in their province and has at least 3 years of clinical experience.
Can I get prescriptions?+
For routine, non-controlled medications and refills — yes, where provincially allowed. The vet will let you know during the consult.
How much does it cost?+
Pay per consult. No subscription required, no surprise fees. You'll see the exact price before you confirm the consult.
Is my pet's data private?+
Yes. Consult records are visible only to you and the vet who saw your pet. We never sell or share veterinary records.
