AI Scribe for Veterinary Technicians & Nurses
Take the history and vitals the way you always do, out loud. PawfectNotes writes them up for the vet before they walk into the room, and support staff accounts are always free.
What PawfectNotes Does for Veterinary Technicians & Nurses
History and vitals, before the vet
Support Staff – History and Vitals is written for the technician who sees the patient first: the reason for the visit, history, vitals and the owner's concerns, ready for the vet.
Record for the vet you're with
Pick the vet and record. The note is saved as that vet's note and uses that vet's plan, so you don't need a paid plan of your own.
Triage and calls
Triage summarises an urgent patient for the attending vet. Call Summary and Communication – Phone / In-Person record client calls for the patient history.
Messages for owners
Communication – Visit / Discharge Summary and Discharge Note turn the visit into instructions the owner can follow at home.

Owner Concerns and Questions
- Wants to know whether the weight loss is "just her age".
- Would like an estimate before any bloodwork.
- Prefers to avoid sedation if possible.
For the Veterinarian
- Owner has agreed to bloodwork if you recommend it, once she has seen the estimate.
- No urine sample yet; owner can bring one from home if needed.
- The carrier top unscrews; Juniper is easier to examine in the bottom half.

Veterinary Technicians & Nurses FAQ
Do technicians need a paid plan?
No. Support staff accounts are always free. When you record for a veterinarian, the session uses that vet's plan.
How do I join my clinic's account?
The practice owner invites you by email from Team Members, and you sign up from the invite as Support Staff.
Does the vet still check the note?
Yes. The note is saved as the vet's note, so they review it before it goes in the record, as they would with anything you typed.
