Pet Owner Questions, Answered Directly

MatchVet is Pakistan's first veterinary marketplace where pet owners post what their pet needs and their budget, and verified vets respond with competing offers. You compare offers by price, rating, and experience, book a home visit or clinic appointment, and pay cash on delivery. It launched in Lahore, with 50+ verified vets and partner clinics and a 4.9-star average rating from completed bookings.

Yes — posting a request and receiving offers is completely free for pet owners. You only pay the vet's offer price you accepted, in cash, after the service. There are no booking fees or hidden charges.

MatchVet currently serves Lahore, with 50+ verified vets and partner clinics across areas including DHA, Johar Town, Model Town, Gulberg, and Bahria Town. Gujranwala is next, with 13+ clinics already in the onboarding pipeline.

Offers usually arrive within the hour of posting a request. Each offer includes the vet's price, available time, and a note, plus their verified profile and rating, so you can decide quickly.

Every vet and clinic is credential-checked before they can send offers on the platform, and every completed visit is rated by the pet owner. Vets with poor ratings lose visibility — the incentive structure rewards good care, not just low prices.

Clinic consultations typically cost Rs 500–3,000 and home visits Rs 1,500–4,000 including the doorstep fee. Vaccines typically run Rs 1,000–3,500 per shot depending on species and vaccine. Full breakdown with tables: matchvet.com/vet-prices-lahore.

Ji haan — MatchVet per request post karein (service, area, budget) aur Lahore ke verified vets offers bhejenge. Doctor ghar aa kar checkup, vaccination, ya deworming karega. Home visit ka kharcha aam tor per Rs 1,500–4,000 hota hai, aur payment cash on delivery hai.

MatchVet per apni billi ki zaroorat post karein — Lahore ke cat-experienced verified vets aap ko offers bhejenge, aur doctor ghar bhi aa sakta hai. Cats ke liye home visit behtar hoti hai kyunke clinic ka safar unke liye stressful hota hai.

Kittens: core FVRCP-type vaccine at 6–8 weeks, boosters every 3–4 weeks until ~16 weeks (usually 2–3 shots), rabies at 12–16 weeks, then boosters as your vet advises (commonly yearly in Pakistan). Adult cats with unknown history get a primary shot, a booster after 3–4 weeks, and rabies. Your vet may adjust for your cat's health and exposure — MatchVet saves each shot and due date in your pet's record.

Puppies: core 5-in-1 (distemper, hepatitis, parvo, parainfluenza, lepto) at 6–8 weeks, boosters every 3–4 weeks until 14–16 weeks, rabies at 12–16 weeks, then boosters as advised (commonly yearly in Pakistan, especially for parvo/distemper risk). Adult dogs with unknown history: primary shot + booster + rabies. Ask the vet to quote the full puppy series, not just one shot.

Remove stress, offer strong-smelling wet food, and watch closely. If a cat eats nothing for 24 hours (12 for kittens), or refuses food alongside vomiting, lethargy, or hiding, it needs a vet the same day — prolonged fasting in cats can cause dangerous liver complications. A home visit avoids adding carrier stress to a sick cat.

Breathing difficulty, suspected poisoning, trauma (falls, road accidents), seizures, bloated or hard abdomen, straining without urinating, pale gums, or collapse. For these, go directly to a 24/7 animal hospital — do not wait for offers. For everything short of that, posting on MatchVet gets you a verified vet quickly.

Commonly: kittens and puppies every 2–4 weeks until 12 weeks, then monthly to 6 months, then every 3 months for adults — adjusted for outdoor access and parasite exposure, which are high in Pakistan. Your vet will weigh your pet and dose accordingly; MatchVet records each deworming and the next due date.
