What is Great Pet Care?
Great Pet Care started life as Pawprint, one of the earlier pet medical record apps. It rebranded to Great Pet Care and expanded beyond records into a broader pet care platform. Today it offers:
- Medical record storage — upload and manage your pet's records in one place
- Vet finder — search for local veterinarians
- Pet product recall alerts — get notified when your pet's food or products are recalled
- Reminders — set recurring reminders for medications, flea treatments, walks
- Weight tracking — log and track your pet's weight over time
It's a solid utility app for pet owners who want a single place to keep records and stay on top of basic care tasks. The recall alerts feature is genuinely useful — few other apps offer it.
What is Voocie?
Voocie is a pet health record app built around AI document understanding. You upload vet PDFs — visit summaries, lab results, vaccine records, invoices — and the AI extracts structured data: diagnoses, medications, lab values, vaccine dates. It builds a searchable, chronological health timeline automatically.
Beyond storage, Voocie explains lab results in plain language, helps you prepare questions for vet visits based on your pet's open health items, and exports claim-ready documentation for pet insurance.

Where Great Pet Care wins
- Recall alerts. This is a genuinely differentiating feature. If your pet eats a recalled food, Great Pet Care can notify you before you'd find out otherwise. Few pet apps offer this.
- Vet finder. Looking for a new vet? Great Pet Care includes a local vet search. Voocie doesn't — you'd need to search separately and then upload records from whoever you choose.
- Free forever. Great Pet Care doesn't charge pet owners. If cost is a concern, that matters.
- Established history. Pawprint/Great Pet Care has been around longer. It has a track record and a larger existing user base.
Where Voocie wins
- AI document understanding. The biggest difference. Upload a vet PDF to Great Pet Care and it's stored as a file. Upload the same PDF to Voocie and the AI extracts every diagnosis, medication, lab value, and vaccine date — building a structured, searchable record you can actually use.
- Lab-result explanations. Voocie reads your pet's bloodwork results and explains what each value means in the context of your pet's history. "Your dog's ALT is elevated compared to last year" is more useful than staring at a number you can't interpret.
- Vet visit prep. Before an appointment, Voocie surfaces what's open: medications due for review, abnormal lab trends, upcoming vaccines. It generates specific questions to ask your vet, tailored to your pet's situation.
- Insurance claims. Export a complete claim-ready packet — visit dates, diagnoses, invoices, treatment history — in one step. This alone can save hours per claim.
The real question: storage or intelligence?
Great Pet Care is a record locker — a central, reliable place to keep your pet's documents. That's valuable. Before apps like these existed, most people kept vet records in a kitchen drawer, if they kept them at all.
Voocie is a record brain — it doesn't just store documents, it reads them, understands them, and helps you act on them. The tradeoff is that Voocie costs money (after the 60-day free trial) and is newer.

Frequently asked questions
What is the main difference between Voocie and Great Pet Care?
Great Pet Care (formerly Pawprint) stores records you upload, with a vet finder, recall alerts, reminders, and weight tracking. Voocie is an AI-powered medical record system: every pet gets a private email address at pets.voocie.com, and the clinic's after-visit summary files itself automatically. Voocie also explains lab results and exports records for insurance claims.
Does Great Pet Care automatically file vet records from email?
No. Great Pet Care stores records you upload manually. Voocie's email mechanic removes that step: give your vet your pet's private Voocie address once and every subsequent visit summary arrives in the record automatically — no upload required.
Is Great Pet Care free?
Great Pet Care has a free tier. Voocie is $99 per year (about $10 per month) for all your pets. Great Pet Care covers record storage, recalls, and reminders; Voocie adds AI document parsing, lab result explanations, visit prep, and insurance claim export.
Can Great Pet Care explain my pet's lab results?
No. Great Pet Care stores lab documents but doesn't offer AI interpretation of clinical data. Voocie's AI reads vet PDFs and explains what each value means in the context of your pet's full history. Always discuss results with your veterinarian — AI explanations are informational, not diagnostic.
Which pet health app is better for pet insurance claims?
Voocie. It includes an insurance claim export feature that compiles the full vet-sourced health history in a format ready for insurance submission. Great Pet Care stores documents but doesn't include dedicated claim-export functionality.
