Hospet is Now Completely Free

Update
Hi everyone,

I want to take a moment to share a big announcement. All of Hospet's features are now completely free for everyone.

When we first launched the platform, we asked for a small subscription fee for some of our features to help cover hosting and development costs. It was never about profit, only about keeping the project sustainable.

Over time, we realized that even a small cost could keep some pet families from getting the support they needed most. That was never the intention. Now, every feature in Hospet is open to all users, because no one should ever have to weigh their pet’s comfort against a subscription fee.

To everyone who has supported Hospet so far, thank you. Your encouragement, feedback, and kindness have helped shape this into something truly meaningful. You’ve made it possible to take this next step toward accessibility and compassion.

We also want to thank Healing Touch, which Dr. Kendra and I founded, for sponsoring Hospet’s development and helping cover ongoing operating costs. Healing Touch provides in-home euthanasia services and shares the same mission as Hospet: to bring comfort and clarity to families navigating end-of-life care for their beloved animals. Their support helps ensure Hospet can stay online, supported, and completely free for everyone who needs it.

If you’d like to help Hospet continue to grow, there are a few simple ways to make a difference:
  • Spread the word - Share Hospet with friends, veterinarians, doulas, and shelters who might find it helpful.
  • Rate us on the Apple/Google Play Stores - Taking a moment to leave a rating goes such a long way towards helping others find out about the tool.
  • Offer feedback - Your experiences guide future updates and improvements. You can always use the feature request link in the app, or email support@hospet.app.
  • Support hosting and outreach - We’re committed to keeping Hospet free and fully supported, and we are proud to cover its costs to make that possible. If you would like to help, optional contributions will go toward hosting, outreach, and helping Hospet grow into a self-sustaining community resource.
Hospet will always exist to bring clarity and comfort to the people who love their animals most. Thank you for being part of this mission, and for helping it reach more hearts and homes.

Sincerely, 

Michael & (Dr.) Kendra Hodge
