SAVET is changing how pet owners find veterinary care in South Africa.
Launched in March 2026, the platform was built to solve a common problem. Many pet owners struggle to find reliable vet information during emergencies, often dealing with outdated listings and unclear credentials.
SAVET brings everything into one place, helping you find verified veterinary care quickly and with confidence.
Why the platform matters
For many South Africans, locating a vet nearby, especially in urgent situations, has been difficult.
Information online is often fragmented. Clinic hours are not always updated. Verifying whether a practice is properly registered takes time most pet owners do not have in an emergency.
SAVET simplifies this process by offering a central, easy-to-use directory designed for real-life situations.

Built for how you search today
The platform focuses on speed, accuracy and ease of use.
You can search by province, city or neighbourhood, helping you find nearby options without scrolling through irrelevant results.
The mobile-first design makes a clear difference. You can access listings on your phone, tap to call a clinic or get directions instantly. This matters when time is critical.
Verified and trustworthy listings
One of SAVET’s strongest features is its focus on credibility.
Each listed clinic includes a verified registration number from the South African Veterinary Council.
This gives you peace of mind that the vet you choose is qualified and properly registered.
More than a directory
SAVET also offers practical pet health advice tailored to South African conditions.
This includes preventative care tips to help you manage your pet’s health before issues become urgent.
A mission focused on access
The platform’s goal is clear. Improve access to veterinary care and reduce delays that can put animals at risk.
It is free to use, allowing pet owners across all nine provinces to search, browse and connect with veterinary practices without cost.
For pet parents, this means less stress, faster decisions and better outcomes when care is needed most.
