Chewy Vet Care will open several locations across the country this year
Most pet owners know Chewy as a source for all things pet goods toys, treats, leashes, and even medication.
Now, Chewy is branching out to also provide veterinary services. The retailer announced it will launch vet clinics across the country known as Chewy Vet Care.
We partnered with hundreds of veterinarians and customers to design an in-practice and post-visit experience which we believe will be unlike anything in the market, and appreciated by both communities, said Mita Malhotra, president of Chewy Health. Our practices contain thoughtfully designed spaces for the comfort and privacy of our customers and our care team.
Chewy Vet Care will be powered by our proprietary, easy-to-use modern technology, to deliver a seamless and memorable experience, which we have delivered for over a decade in our core businesses.

Two Chewy Vet Care clinics have already opened one in Highlands Ranch, Colo., and one in Plantation, Fla. More locations are scheduled to open this year in Coral Gables, Fla.; Denver; Fountain Oaks, Ga.; and Perimeter, Ga.
This is one of the most significant moments in Chewys history as we open the doors to our Chewy Vet Care practices and physically become a part of our customers lives and in their neighborhoods, Malhotra said. Our team has worked relentlessly to create an experience that is extraordinary and memorable for pets, customers, and our veterinary teams.
