Smart scheduling that knows your clients as well as you do.
VetPlanner is free scheduling built for independent practices and small chains. Track client reliability, automate reminders, and give reception the tools they deserve.
The Standard
Modern tools for independent practices
Corporate chains have dedicated software and dedicated teams. We're leveling the playing field with tools built specifically for the way you work.
Protect your revenue
Smart tracking helps ensure every slot counts. Reduce no-shows without the chase and keep your day running smoothly.
Empower your front desk
Automate the busywork – reminders, confirmations, forms – so your team can focus on the client in front of them.
Tools built for you
Purpose-built for vets. Not a generic calendar, but a dedicated veterinary scheduler that understands your workflow.
The Solution
The new standard for scheduling
VetPlanner handles the busywork – reminders, confirmations, intake forms – so reception can focus on the clients in front of them. And it remembers everything about every client, across every location.
Client reliability tracking
Know your schedule's health at a glance. Every booking shows history and reliability scores, visible across all your sites.
Automated everything
Booking confirmations, 24h reminders, 1h reminders, intake forms – all automatic. See who's confirmed at a glance.
Multi-location ready
Seamlessly manage multiple sites. Client records are shared instantly, so your team always has the full picture.
Running in under 30 minutes
No IT project. No data migration. No consultants.
Set up your practice
Add your details, working hours, and cancellation policy. Invite your team if you have one.

The Pilot
Be one of the first practices on VetPlanner
We're launching a free pilot in January 2026 with independent practices and small chains across the UK. You'll get early access, direct input into the product, and free access that lasts.
- Free for independent practices – no trial, no catch
- Small chains (2-5 locations): extended free access for early adopters
- Direct line to the team – shape what we build
- Priority support and first access to new features
Pilot launch for UK practices
Questions
What does the pilot include?
Everything. Full scheduling, multi-location support, client tracking, automated reminders, intake forms – the complete product.
Is it really free?
Free for independent practices, yes. Small chains (2-5 sites) get extended free access as early adopters, with affordable flat-rate pricing coming later.
Do I need to connect my PIMS?
No. VetPlanner runs standalone. Keep your PIMS for clinical records; use VetPlanner for scheduling. No integration, no data migration.
How many practices are you accepting?
We're starting small – around 20-30 practices for the initial pilot. We want to give everyone proper support and actually listen to feedback.
What happens after the pilot?
Pilot practices keep free access to core features forever. We'll add optional paid features (SMS, online booking) but the scheduling and reliability tracking stays free for pilot members.
Is my data safe?
Yes. Industry-standard encryption, UK data hosting, no third-party sharing. Export or delete all your data anytime you want.
Why We're Building This
Independent practices deserve better tools
Independent practices and small chains are the backbone of UK veterinary care. But you're underserved by software companies chasing big corporate contracts.
We think that's wrong.
We're building VetPlanner to give you the tools that large chains take for granted – starting with scheduling, and growing from there.
Smart scheduling starts here
