Built for in-home euthanasia & hospice vets

The practice software that understands the work you actually do

emberVet is practice management software made specifically for veterinarians who provide in-home pet euthanasia and hospice care. Unlike clinic-oriented systems that treat euthanasia as a single appointment type, emberVet runs your whole journey with families — from the first inquiry and quality-of-life assessment, through the farewell visit, into aftercare coordination and grief support — in one mobile-first place.

Why general vet software falls short

Most practice management systems were built for a brick-and-mortar clinic with exam rooms, walk-in traffic, and patients seen for fifteen years. In end-of-life care your practice is your vehicle, your relationship with a patient may span a single visit, and the critical information isn't a 2019 vaccine record — it's the family's emotional state, their aftercare preferences, and the clinical justification for timing.

Clinic software has two states for an encounter — scheduled and completed. Your work has a rich pipeline, and aftercare alone is a significant part of the service it has no concept of.

A case pipeline for the whole journey

Track every family from inquiry → quality-of-life assessment → hospice → scheduling → visit prep → procedure → aftercare → grief support → closed. See where every active case stands at a glance, with an append-only audit trail of who changed what and when.

Aftercare & cremation coordination, tracked

Record which aftercare option each family selected, whether the pet has been transferred, whether cremains have been returned, and whether memorial items like paw prints have been delivered — so a family never has to call wondering where their pet's urn is.

Compassionate, automatic family communication

Send pre-visit preparation guides, post-visit condolences, and thoughtfully timed grief check-ins (a few days after, one week, one month, the anniversary). You set the words; emberVet handles the timing — personalized with the pet's and family's names so they feel genuine, not automated.

Mobile-first, because you work in living rooms

Access records, update case notes, and process payments from a phone or tablet, on cellular data, in a family's home — with two-factor authentication and encryption so a lost device never exposes client data.

Frequently asked questions

What makes emberVet different from general practice management software?

emberVet is purpose-built for in-home pet euthanasia and hospice care. It models the full journey — inquiry through grief support — with a case pipeline, aftercare coordination, and automated grief follow-up that general PIMS tools, which treat euthanasia as one appointment type, do not provide.

Does emberVet work for solo and multi-vet practices?

Both. emberVet supports solo practitioners and team-based practices with shared case pipelines, role-based access, and clean handoffs between veterinarians, while owners keep a complete overview of every journey in progress.

Can I try emberVet before committing?

Yes — a 14-day free trial with full access to every feature, no credit card required. emberVet is $99/month after the trial.

Is my families’ data secure?

Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with row-level security so each practice can only access its own records. emberVet never shares or sells your information.
