Fetcher! is the solution every pet owner has been waiting for. Modern advances in technology remove the need for faxes and lack of information.

Problem : Inaccessible pet medical records and history by the pet owner and lack of easy communication from veterinarian to veterinarian and pet owner to veterinarian.
Solution : All pet documents will be stored and accessible with Fetcher!. Pet information is just a click or tap away. By storing data in the cloud, Fetcher! can make information widely available while also restricting access to authorized users.
Problem : Veterinarians transmit pet documents either through fax or paper copies. Switching vets or the unfortunate trip to an emergency vet requires unnecessary paperwork and time.
Solution : Any vet clinic that a pet or pet owner visits will have pet information available on demand. Pet owners grant access to vets to see all relevant information about the pet and pet owner. If a vet clinic is not part of the Fetcher! network, pet owners can still provide a special access code which grants the clinic access through the browser, which can be exported or saved for easy transfer and integration.
Problem : Many pet breeds are subject to hereditary issues which may be unpredictable. This causes issues for breeders and pet owners when medical expenses or unexpected illness falls upon pets.
Solution : Fetcher LLC hopes to partner with a genetic analysis company to submit DNA samples. Fetcher! will store the results of the analysis to generate a database of pet genetics history. Machine learning can then be used to predict the medical issues and genetic defects of pets, saving pet owners medical expenses and heart break.
This solution will also provide breeders with a tool to breed defects out of blood lines. It is also a way for breeders to prove the medical history of their breeding lines.
Problem : Due to the sensitive nature of prescription medications, there is often a delay in ordering and renewing medications and supplies for pets.
Solution : Blockchain technology allows for the secure and verifiable transfer of prescription orders. This allows Fetcher! to streamline the process of filling prescriptions with online pharmacies, requesting refills from a veterinarian, and providing historical data of all medications issued to a pet.
The idea was created by Jeff Weber in 2016 through the frustration he had with his pet care. Larry and Jeff met in 2017 through their mutual EOD background. In 2022, Larry was telling Jeff the headaches of finding and transferring to a new veterinary clinic. Jeff mentioned his idea for a portal for pets and his plan for making the application. Larry was on board immediately! They spoke to friends and family who all shared the same frustrations around pet healthcare records and access of that information. This was a problem that needed solving!
1 Advances in technology have caused a boom in mobile device use and cloud technologies. Humans are on the move and in many cases, so are their pets. Humans have been provided improvements in their health systems while pet medicine still has room for improvement. Fetcher LLC wants to upend the pet health care process and innovate for the world’s pets!
2 The current crypto market has brought a lot of attention to NFTs and the blockchain. These emerging technologies are the perfect mechanism to help facilitate features in our application which will provide security and reliability on the information provided to our systems. Fetcher LLC plans to harness the power of the blockchain to bring pet medicine to the current capabilities of technology.
The idea and business model are completed, and this website and MVP are being developed. Our motivation has allowed the team to bootstrap everything so far, but as we grow we expect the trending interest from investors to grow as well.
Bootstrapping has allowed us to maintain creative control so we can develop a product that doesn’t focus on profit, but instead allows us to put our energy where it matters; on our users and their pets.
Every pet owner & every veterinarian
Veterinarians and vet clinics will benefit from the ease of use and a system built around their needs. We are speaking with vets and integrating what they want in an EMR system. They will have instant cloud based access to new patient historical documents.
Pet owners who are frustrated with the lack of access to their pet health information. They will have 24/7 access to all historical information and will be able to easily grant access to new vets in case an emergency visit arises or they transfer to a new vet.
