Your pet loves work from home, so surely they’ll love televet visits, too.
They might be able to visit the vet virtually through Amazon in the future. Walmart already offers televet perks through Walmart Plus.

Patreon bought a service for ticketing online events.
The startup, Moment, has worked with Pod Save America, Roy Wood Jr., and others to sell digital access to live shows.
