Veterinary urgent care, reimagined

The wait is overfor urgent pet care

PawQueue replaces the chaotic whiteboard with a real-time digital queue. Pet owners check in from their phone, watch their place in line live, and get notified the moment the vet is ready.

Built for Urgent Care

Six things PawQueue does differently.

01 / Severity-based queue
The sickest pet goes next — automatically.
PACS scoring (1–5) reorders the queue in real time. No manual bumping, no angry clients when a critical case arrives.
