About Covetrus

We are the first tech-enabled veterinary-practice improvement company. Our mission is to drive better financial and clinical outcomes for veterinarians.

Our company

We deliver practice improvement by creating networks for veterinarians that empower them to run better, more profitable businesses. These networks are enhanced by our Covetrus® Platform, key solutions that streamline the complexities of running a practice.

When their practices are running productively, veterinarians can focus on the reason they became vets in the first place—the health and well-being of animals.
