Veterinary reception team member greeting a visitor and dog

Answers grounded in your business

Branch hours, routine booking procedures and clinic-approved after-hours contact instructions. Clinical assessment stays with the veterinary team.

Load the approved sources your team uses. Sofie asks relevant follow-up questions, keeps the conversation focused and passes questions outside that information to the right person. Keep time-sensitive information up to date; a supplied document is not a live system connection.

Load the right information

Branch hours, routine booking procedures and clinic-approved after-hours contact instructions. Clinical assessment stays with the veterinary team.

Agree the routing

Choose who receives vaccination booking request enquiries and who handles after-hours call about a pet requests. Provide branch contacts, coverage hours and any approved escalation rules.

Test the fallback

Common questions

Can There247 confirm bookings, availability or account changes?

What if the caller needs a person?

Sofie can introduce the caller to the appropriate team member under your rules. Warm transfers are available on Premium and Business. If nobody answers, use your agreed fallback and notification route.

Can we use it only when the team is busy or closed?

Yes. Agree when calls should reach There247 and configure the routing for your existing number and phone provider. Test the arrangement before relying on it.

What should stay with our authorised team?
