Description

Company Description

Pettable is a leading provider of mental health solutions, serving 350,000 clients across the United States with a team of 150 board-certified psychiatrists, physicians, and licensed mental health professionals. By leveraging modern technology and legislation, we are addressing America’s mental health crisis by expanding access to care and services on a national scale.



Recently, Pettable took a transformative step in its mission by acquiring an ADHD diagnosis and treatment company. This acquisition is part of an ambitious growth strategy to address the needs of a large, underserved population and introduce new services designed to maximize patient outcomes. With this expansion, Pettable is broadening its focus to offer comprehensive mental health care solutions and cementing its role as a trusted partner in mental health.



While we continue to provide support for emotional support animals (ESAs) and psychiatric service dogs (PSDs), helping individuals secure essential documentation and training, these services are part of our mission to meet our nation's diverse mental health needs.



Founded in 2020, Pettable is a profitable part of the Mechanism Ventures ecosystem, an early-stage venture firm with a proven track record of cofounding and investing in multiple companies with $100M+ in revenue. In addition to investment and strategic guidance, Mechanism provides extensive operational support in critical areas, including Growth Marketing, Product, Operations, People, Finance, and Legal, with in-house experts at the top of their fields.
