Why Pharmacy2U is in pet healthcare

Giving pet owners peace of mind: it began with Walter

The drive to create Pharmacy2U Pet Health was born out of a simple, relatable frustration experienced by co-founder, Phil Younger, and his much-loved family dog, Walter.  

Like many pets, Walter needed veterinary care for a particularly itchy paw. After seeing the resulting bill, Phil was struck by the high costs and persistent stress that repeat medicine and ongoing treatment place on pet owners. Driven by this realisation, Phil, his brother Neil, and their father, Keith, decided to create The PharmPet Co (now Pharmacy2U Pet Health). Their goal: to give pet owners peace of mind by making vet-prescribed medicine simple, easy, and more affordable where possible.
