Company mission

Our take
The veterinary industry is struggling to keep up with the number of pets owned in the US - veterinary practitioners are overworked and underpaid, and the result of this is long waits for appointments, shorter visits and a general decrease in veterinary care. Small Door provides a membership model that pairs clients with vets to give pet owners access to 24/7 communication and priority services, ensuring their animals reach the care they need.
There are other companies that are aiming to reduce wait times and costs for sufficient veterinary care. However, Small Door has found its niche in the market by guaranteeing annual examination and priority access to specialists that are trained to deal with specific animals.
While Small Door has launched physical veterinary services, its primary focus remains on connecting clients with the right veterinayr experts. The company emphasizes that this approach helps it stay true to its mission of providing esential care for pets while ensuring vets are neither overworked nor underpaids. Despite this, Small Door still plans to expand its physical presence, aiming to have 25 locations by the end of 2025.
