Negative keywords for veterinarians
Pet owners google symptoms and home remedies long before they book, and vet-tech careers are a search category of their own. This list blocks both, plus the free-clinic hunters a private practice can't serve.
Updated
Before you paste: what NOT to block
Urgent and local queries are the appointments — don't touch:
- emergency vet near me
- vet open now
- dog vaccinations near me
- spay cost
Every list on this page is a starting point, not a decree. Scan it against your own offer before applying — one business's junk click is another's best lead.

View listFrequently asked questions
"Can dogs eat..." — why block a whole question family?
"Can dogs eat grapes" is one of the highest-volume pet queries on earth and virtually none of it books an appointment. As a phrase-match negative, "can dogs eat" removes the entire family in one line.
Should a private clinic block "low cost" and "free" vet queries?
Unless you run a subsidized program, yes. Those searchers are looking for shelters and nonprofit clinics; a full-price practice can't convert them and the click still costs full price.
These are generic industry negatives - safe in most accounts of this kind, but not tuned to yours. Inside Keyword Ninja, the Smart Blocklist cross-checks this exact catalog against your real search terms and shows the wasted spend before you block a single word.
