Methodology
How we ranked the best vets in Adelaide
- We start with public OpenStreetMap business records (1,173 across AU).
- We attempt automated web verification using DuckDuckGo, canonical site detection and JSON-LD extraction.
- Status badges show what has been verified: Verified, Web-checked, Imported, Demo.
- Owner-claimed listings on Pet Pro Owner appear at the top of every ranking.
- We never accept payment to rank a business higher; owners pay for claim, not position.
These rankings are status-first directory rankings, not user-review awards. Where a rank is not derived from explicit user-validated data, the visible status badge shows the current verification level. If you run a vet in Adelaide and want to claim your listing, see /pricing/.
