Websites for veterinarians
A website for your veterinary practice, built for you
FreeWebGuy builds websites for veterinarians: $0 to build and $15 a month for hosting once you approve the site. The first version comes within 48 hours of your brief. It separates the emergency from the appointment, walks a new client through the first visit, lists the species and services you see, and sends appointment and refill requests to your inbox.
Pay nothing until you approve it.
About 3 minutes. No credit card.
What a veterinarian website has to do
-
Separate the emergency from the appointment
A share of your visitors are frightened and reading on a phone in the car. The site has to tell them, before anything else, whether you see emergencies and during what hours, and if not, which emergency hospital to go to. Everyone else gets the calmer path: services, the first visit and a request form.
-
Make the first visit less of a mystery
A new client worries about the pet and about the unknowns: what to bring, how long it takes, what it will cost. A first-visit page that says what happens in order, plus the new-client forms to fill in ahead, lowers the temperature before anyone arrives.
-
Answer the practical questions before the phone rings
Which animals you treat, which services you offer in house, your hours, how payment works, which pet insurance you accept and how refills are requested. Each one is a call your front desk takes today, and each belongs on a page a client can read without calling.
The pages we build for a veterinary practice
Your brief decides the final list. These are the pages most veterinarians need, and the job each one does.
| Page | Why it is there |
|---|---|
| Home | Who you treat, how to request a visit and where to go in an emergency, with the phone number on every page. |
| Services | Wellness, vaccines, dental, surgery and diagnostics, in the names clients use ("teeth cleaning", not "dental prophylaxis"). |
| New clients and your first visit | What to bring, how long to allow, the forms to complete ahead and what the visit looks like step by step. |
| Emergencies and after hours | Whether you take urgent cases, when, and the emergency hospital you refer to after hours. |
| Our doctors and team | Names, photos, degrees and any specialty certifications the doctors hold. |
| Pharmacy and refills | How to request a refill, how long it takes and whether you use an online pharmacy. |
| Payment, insurance and fees | Payment methods, pet insurance, financing, exam fee ranges if you publish them, and wellness plans. |
| Request an appointment | A form that collects the pet, the reason and preferred days, or a button into your practice software's online request. |

-
An emergency note under the headline
Directly under the main heading, a short boxed note tells anyone whose pet may be in immediate danger to contact the nearest emergency veterinary hospital. A panicked visitor reads it first.
-
A care selector instead of a service list
Three tabs sort visitors by situation: a new pet, everyday care, or a question before you arrive. Each panel describes that visit and ends with a link to bring the question to the clinic.
-
A first visit in three steps, then a request button
A numbered section explains the first visit (settle in, talk it through, leave with a plan), and the page ends with the phone number and a send-a-request button side by side.

What to have ready for your brief
The brief takes about 3 minutes. Send what you have now; photos, documents and anything else on this list can follow by email.
- The species you see: dogs and cats only, or also birds, exotics, horses or livestock
- Your services, grouped the way you think about them
- Your hours, whether you take urgent cases, and the emergency hospital you refer to after hours
- Each doctor's name, degree and any board certification they hold, with a photo
- New-client forms as PDFs or a link to your portal
- How appointment requests should arrive: a form that emails you, or your practice software's online request
- Payment methods, pet insurance you work with, financing and wellness plans if you offer them
- Your refill process and the online pharmacy you use, if any
- 10 to 15 photos of the clinic, exam rooms, the team and, with the owner's permission, patients
What customers check before they book
- Doctors' names, degrees and certifications, and any practice accreditation, stated if you hold them
- Photos of your own exam rooms, lobby and team
- An after-hours plan: who to call at 2 a.m. and where to drive
- Reviews a client can verify. In BrightLocal's 2026 Local Consumer Review Survey, 97% of consumers said they read reviews for local businesses and 71% use Google to do it (BrightLocal, 2026).
- The species you treat and the services you offer in house, so nobody drives a rabbit to a dogs-and-cats practice
- Payment and insurance answers before the visit, not at the counter

A veterinary site with services, new-client steps, after-hours guidance, refill requests and an appointment request fits the standard build. Portals, pharmacies and scheduling modules from your practice software keep their own vendor fees.
The pricing page lists what the $15 plan includes and what costs extra. To price your own situation, use the website cost calculator or compare FreeWebGuy with Wix, Squarespace and web designers.

-
Write a services page in the words clients use, and a separate page for new clients with your forms attached.
-
State your hours, your urgent-care policy and the after-hours hospital you refer to, with its address and number.
-
Add the doctors and team with photos, degrees and certifications they hold, plus a payment and insurance page.
-
Add the site link to your Google Business Profile, then send yourself a test appointment request.

Questions veterinarians ask

How much does a veterinary website cost?
A veterinary practice website from FreeWebGuy is $0 to build and $15 a month for hosting once you approve it: $180 for the first year, plus a domain if the practice needs one. No setup fee and no contract. Details are on the pricing page.
What should a veterinary clinic website include?
The species you treat, your services, hours and location, how to request an appointment, what to do in an emergency, a first-visit page with new-client forms, the doctors, and payment and insurance answers. For a general practice that comes to 7 to 9 pages.
How should a vet website handle emergencies?
Say at the top whether you take urgent cases and when. If you do not, name the emergency hospital you refer to, with its phone number and address, so a frightened owner is not reading your services page while the clock runs. Repeat it on the contact and appointment pages.
Can clients request appointments through the website?
Yes. If your practice software offers online requests, the Book button opens it and the request lands in the queue your front desk already works from. If it does not, the site's own form collects the pet, the reason, preferred days and contact details and emails it to the practice. The phone number stays beside the button.
Can clients request prescription refills through the website?
Yes, as a request. The form collects the pet, the medication and the pharmacy, and your team decides what to approve. Most states require a veterinarian-client-patient relationship before a prescription is written, and state veterinary boards set the rules (AVMA, prescriptions and pharmacies FAQ), so the page says a doctor reviews every request.
Should a veterinary website list prices?
List what you can state outright: exam fees, vaccine prices, wellness plan prices and whether you require payment at the time of service. For surgery and diagnostics, explain that you give a written estimate before treatment. A client who can see the exam fee is less likely to delay the visit.
Does a veterinary website need an online pet portal?
Not from us. Portals for records, reminders and refills come from your practice management software, and the website links to the one you have. If you have none, the site's request forms cover appointments and refills.
