About Us
Zoetis is the world’s leading animal health company. Our name comes from “Zoe,” the Greek word for life. The use of science to sustain life is at the foundation of everything we do. How can science create longer, more fulfilling lives for pets? Better life-saving treatments for veterinarians to use? More sustainable livelihoods for ranchers and livestock farmers, with safer food for the people they serve?
We answer all of these questions through a mixture of innovation and compassion, leaning on cutting-edge technologies and deep-seated connections to our communities to create advancements in animal health vaccines, medicines, diagnostics and technologies. We ensure science is always at the center of our journey forward.
