VitusVet and Shipt offer same-day prescription delivery

A new service from VitusVet and Shipt offers same-day delivery of pet prescriptions and products to pet owners across the country.

Through the service, called VetShipRx, pet owners will be able to place an order directly through their local veterinarian and select their desired delivery speed, including same-day or next-day delivery. Once the practice fills the order, a Shipt representative retrieves it and delivers it in the timeframe requested by the customer.

“Now more than ever, veterinary practices need tech-forward solutions to keep their pharmacy competitive,” said Chris Lutz, senior vice president of revenue at VitusVet. “VetShipRx is designed to help veterinarians generate more value through direct client interactions and, in partnership with Shipt, delight pet owners with greater freedom of choice when purchasing those recommended products their pets need.”
