Every pet owner, answered.
An AI receptionist for veterinary clinics answers the clinic line, books wellness exams, vaccines and rechecks, and takes the details when a pet owner calls worried. The phone at a vet clinic rarely stops: vaccine reminders, refill requests, spay and neuter questions, a dog that ate something it should not have. Voxgard picks up in about 0.3 seconds at any hour. It books routine visits into Google Calendar or Calendly and texts the owner a confirmation. When an owner says their pet is sick or hurt, it takes the pet’s name, what happened and a callback number, and marks the call urgent in the summary; if the owner asks for the on-call vet, it rings them through. Refill requests become messages your team can act on, and owners can text a photo of a wound by MMS for your staff to see. It handles 32 languages, Spanish and Chinese among them. From $249 a month; the free five-day pilot uses your real calls and needs no credit card.

Annual exams, puppy shots and rabies boosters that need a date.
Sick or hurt pets
Vomiting, limping or something swallowed, and the owner wants to know who can see the pet.
Refill requests
Flea and tick, heartworm or a daily medication running low.
Surgery scheduling
Spay and neuter dates, drop-off times and what to bring, from what the clinic loaded.

VoxgardMaple Street Animal Hospital, how can I help?
CallerMy dog just ate half a bar of chocolate. I need to talk to the vet.
VoxgardI’ll get you to the on-call vet now. What’s your dog’s name and the best number if we get cut off?
CallerBiscuit. My number is 555-0163.
VoxgardThank you. I’m marking this urgent and ringing Dr. Okafor now.
CallerOkay, thanks.
VoxgardIf she doesn’t pick up, the team gets a text right away with your number and what happened.
What it does
for you.
Books routine care
Wellness exams, vaccines and rechecks go straight into Google Calendar or Calendly, read back to the owner and confirmed by text.
Urgent calls, on request
Takes the pet’s name, what happened and a callback number, marks it urgent, and rings the on-call vet when the owner asks for them.
Photos before the visit
Owners can text a photo by MMS, so your staff see the hot spot or the swollen paw before calling back.
It gives no veterinary advice and does not decide whether a pet needs emergency care; it takes the details, marks the call urgent and rings the on-call vet when the owner asks, and Voxgard has not completed HIPAA certification (details on the security page).

Veterinary Clinics:
questions and answers.
It takes the request as a message with the pet’s name, the medication and the owner’s number, so your team can approve it. It does not approve refills itself.
It answers every call. If an owner asks for the on-call vet, it rings that person; if you refer after-hours cases to another clinic, load its details and it will read them out.
Yes. MMS works on every plan at $0.15 per message, charged separately from call minutes.
One at a time on Basic, three on Standard and unlimited on Enterprise, so pick the plan that fits a busy Monday morning.
It does the job of both: it answers your business calls, takes messages and books appointments. A virtual receptionist is usually a person working remotely, and an answering service usually takes messages. Voxgard is AI: it picks up in about 0.3 seconds, day and night, and books straight into your calendar.
