Telehealth Isn't Just for Humans: Telehealth Now to Help Pet Owners: BabelBark Offers Free 24/7 Veterinary Help Hotline

NEWTON, Mass., March 18, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- As communities across the globe are taking more precautions to reduce the spread of COVID-19, what are pet owners to do, if their pet needs medical care and they need to remain in quarantine? To help the more than 100 million pet owners in the United States and Canada, BabelBark, a pet-related software developer, has teamed up with whiskerDocs, the leading provider of telehealth support, to provide free 24/7 veterinary help hotline for all pet owners.

For the next 60 days, pet owners can use BabelBark's application, Alpha Pack, for free to communicate directly with their veterinarian or receive remote veterinary support to answer questions ranging from the most simplistic to those determining whether a pet needs urgent medical care.

"Each day, pet owners are faced with the challenges of caring for their pets while reducing in-person contact with other people and that includes their local veterinary hospital," says Roy Stein, CEO of BabelBark. "Pet owners can now determine remotely if their pet needs care."

BabelBark is also waiving fees for its consumer-facing Alpha Pack service to further streamline communications between a pet owner and their healthcare providers. This includes unlimited, 24/7 on-demand veterinary support for their pets.

To access 60 days of FREE and UNLIMITED use of Alpha Pack for triage services (enter code SAFE+SOUND at checkout), visit: https://pages.babelbark.com/alpha-pack-lp/.
