Beyond Advice: PetPace and TelmyVet Redefine Telemedicine for Pets with Launch of Groundbreaking Quality-of-Life Consultation
TelmyVet and PetPace jointly announced today the launch of a pioneering Quality-of-Life Consultation, a virtual care service designed to support pets and their families during the most vulnerable stage of life. By combining TelmyVet’s advanced telemedicine platform with the award-winning PetPace wearable AI and machine learning dog health monitor, this new service offers a compassionate, data-driven approach to end-of-life care.
“It’s critical that families feel supported through every step of end-of-life care,” said Emily Piché, TelmyVet program director. “This service creates space for meaningful conversations about hospice care, anticipatory grief, and caregiver burden.”
Redefining Hospice and Palliative Support for Pets
Caring for pets in their final life stage is emotionally complex. The Quality-of-Life Consultation provides a safe, virtual space for pet parents to connect with veterinary professionals, receive guidance, and make informed decisions—reducing the stress of in-clinic visits for pets with limited mobility or chronic illness.
“When evaluating Quality-of-Life, access to near real time health alerts and continuous vital sign tracking like HRV, sleep, pain, and wellness scores changes everything,” said Dr. Asaf Dagan, chief veterinary scientist at PetPace. “It provides a holistic view of the pet’s well-being.”
Objective, Real-Time Health Monitoring
At the core of this service is the PetPace smart dog collar—a clinically validated device that tracks vital signs, mobility, posture, behavior, and location. It is the only veterinarian-grade wearable that measures Heart Rate Variability (HRV), a critical indicator of pain and stress. Through advanced analytics, veterinary teams can monitor health trends over time rather than relying on isolated data points.
Empowering Veterinary Teams with Technology and Compassion
Designed by veterinary experts, the consultation equips practices with customizable pain scales, QOL assessment forms, and educational tools to guide clients with clarity and compassion.
“Veterinary care shouldn’t end when a client leaves the clinic,” said Dr. Chris Armstrong, veterinarian and industry advisor. “The Quality-of-Life consult empowers teams to extend care virtually, while streamlining workflow and maintaining high standards of care.”
Looking Ahead: Consult+ Series and Future Integrations
The Quality-of-Life Consultation is the first offering in TelmyVet's upcoming Consult+ series. Future services will include senior care, chronic disease management, epilepsy, reproduction, pain management, behavior, weight control, and more—all supported by the real-time health data provided by PetPace technology.
