Pet Care App Development Services

You know what your business needs. We help you build it. Let’s talk through your idea, your goals, and the best way to make it happen.

At Akveo, we understand that the pet and veterinary industries need more than just reliable technology. They need solutions that prioritize the health and happiness of animals while also improving the experience for their owners and the clinics serving them.

Pet tech & product companies

Types of companies:

  • Smart collar & GPS tracker manufacturers

  • Pet activity & health tracker providers

  • Pet safety device companies

  • Pet lifestyle & wellness device makers

  • Smart feeder & camera companies

  • Pet smart toy developers

Challenges:

Fragmented product ecosystems

Devices, apps, and services don’t connect well with each other, making it hard for pet owners to manage everything in one place.

Scaling & product updates

When it takes too long to add features, support new devices, or launch in new regions, growth slows down and competitors get ahead.

Complex device setup & support

If setting up a device feels hard, customers get frustrated fast. Complicated installation, tricky pairing, or hard-to-find troubleshooting can lead to returns – and bad reviews.

Data integration & sync issues

Device data doesn’t sync reliably with apps or partner platforms, leading to delays, gaps, or incorrect information.

Limited mobile & user experience

Apps or platforms feel outdated, are missing key features, or are difficult for customers to use.

Weak customer retention

Users try the product but stop using it due to limited updates, lack of engagement, or no added value over time.

Solutions

Wearable sync & tracking apps
Pet wellness & health dashboards
Smart feeder control & nutrition apps
Pet camera & home monitoring apps
Multi-pet management platforms
Environmental monitoring apps
Pet door companion apps
and more...

Vet care teams

Types of companies:

  • Veterinary clinics & hospitals

  • Emergency & specialty vet centers

  • Corporate vet groups

  • Livestock & agri-vets

  • Mobile vets

  • Veterinary telemedicine startups

Challenges:

Operational overload

Too many tasks, too many tools – your team spends more time managing work than doing it.

Disconnected pet health records

Pet info is spread across systems, making it hard to get a clear, complete medical history when you need it.

Poor client communication

Pet owners miss updates or feel left out, leading to more calls, more confusion, and less trust.

Compliance takes too much time

Staying compliant means hours of paperwork and manual tracking – on top of everything else.

Outdated or incomplete tools

Your current systems are slow, clunky, or missing features your team and clients actually need.

No support for mobile or rural work

When you're on the go or in the field, it's hard to access records or update info without the right tools.

Solutions

Animal health companies

Types of companies:

  • Veterinary diagnostic laboratories

  • Animal pharmaceutical & vaccine manufacturers

  • Veterinary biotech companies

  • Animal health device & monitoring providers

  • Veterinary equipment & instrument manufacturers

  • Animal nutrition & supplement producers

Challenges:

Disconnected data & systems

Your results, product data, and sales info live in different places. Pulling it all together takes time, and by the time you do, it’s already out of date.

Complex compliance & traceability

Every test, batch, and shipment needs to be tracked, logged, and ready for inspection. Doing it manually eats up hours you could spend on real work.

Inefficient inventory & supply chain management

You’re constantly chasing stock levels, expiry dates, and orders. One small slip can mean wasted products or missed deliveries.

Lack of centralized reporting & insights

It’s hard to see the full picture – what’s working, what’s not, and where you should act – when the data is spread across different tools and teams.

Limited product & device integration

Your devices, lab equipment, and monitoring tools don’t connect the way they should. That means more manual work and slower results.

Slow client & partner communication

Sharing updates, results, or instructions with clinics, distributors, or partners takes longer than it should – and slows everyone down.

Solutions

Digital compliance & traceability tools
Inventory & supply chain management systems
Advanced reporting & analytics dashboards
Device & equipment integration services
Client & partner communication portals
IoT-enabled monitoring & control apps
and more...

Pet products & services

Types of companies:

  • Pet product e-commerce stores

  • Grooming & boarding aggregators

  • Pet sitting & walking platforms

  • Pet health & wellness platforms

  • Pet insurance providers

  • Pet supply services

Challenges:

Poor user experience

Clients struggle to book, shop, or get the info they need – leading to drop-offs and lost sales.

Inefficient booking & order management

Scheduling services or managing orders is clunky, slow, and hard to keep accurate.

Limited customer retention

Customers don’t come back because there’s no loyalty program, follow-up, or personalized offers.

Disconnected systems

E-commerce, booking, payment, and inventory tools don’t talk to each other – creating more manual work.

Complex insurance & claims processes (* for insurance providers)

Filing and tracking claims is slow, confusing, and frustrating for clients.

Delivery & fulfillment gaps

Orders and services aren’t delivered on time because there’s no smooth link between ordering, inventory, and logistics.

Solutions

Custom e-commerce platforms
Online booking & scheduling systems
Integrated payment & billing solutions
CRM & customer data platforms
Insurance claims management tools
Delivery & logistics management systems
Multi-system integrations & APIs
and more...

Animal care nonprofits & public institutions

Types of companies:

  • Animal shelters

  • Animal rescues

  • Zoos & wildlife centers

  • Animal welfare NGOs

  • Government & public health agencies

  • Veterinary schools & educational institutions

Challenges:

Manual & outdated processes

Adoptions, volunteer work, donations, and event registrations are managed on paper or in basic spreadsheets – making it slow and error-prone.

Limited visibility & transparency

Donors, supporters, and the public can’t easily see impact metrics, reports, or where funds go – reducing trust and engagement.

Inefficient staff coordination

Scheduling, communication, and task management for large teams is messy and inconsistent.

Weak community engagement tools

Without a central place to connect, supporters, volunteers, and partners it's harder to share updates, learn from each other, or work together.

Limited funding for tech upgrades

Tight budgets make it tricky to invest in new tools, so solutions have to be affordable while still dependable and able to grow with your needs.

Lack of centralized education & training resources

When training materials are spread across different places, your staff waste time searching instead of learning.

Solutions

Adoption & foster management systems
Scheduling & coordination tools
Donation & fundraising platforms
Public impact dashboards
Community engagement portals
Online learning & training platforms

Case study
4 months to a seamless pet care experience for Sploot Veterinary Care

Sploot Veterinary Care, a fast-growing US clinic network, needed a mobile app to make vet visits easier – from booking appointments to managing medical records and medication reminders. We built the Sploot Vets Parent Portal from scratch in just 4 months, integrating with VetSpire, Stripe, and a custom reminder engine, while preparing the platform for future pet food and product delivery. The result: a 4.4★-rated app now used by hundreds of pet owners.
