Veterinarians or new graduates interested in taking 2 to 3 shifts a week, including one in four Saturdays, are encouraged to apply.

Meaningful work: We strive to provide training and facilitate caseloads in the areas where your passion exists – we want to help you develop a fulfilling veterinary career, doing more of what you enjoy every day.

Compensation: The base salary offered will depend on experience and part-time status, as well as other factors that we are open to negotiating. Performance and production-based compensation, in addition to base salary, is also available.

We are looking for veterinarians who enjoy preventative and urgent care for dogs and cats in small animal medicine. Those who get excited about helping people strengthen the bond they share with their pet through the art of veterinary medicine are encouraged to apply. Wanting to be a part of a culture of continuous improvement, strong teamwork skills and an ability to maintain positive interpersonal relationships will also be important.

Successful candidates will be able to provide services in small animal medicine, be open to working every 4th Saturday, and able to commit to at least 2 shifts weekly.

Advanced experience or specialized certification in areas such as behaviour, sport medicine/rehab, senior, geriatric, and palliative care, or integrative medicine such as acupuncture, laser therapy, nutrition, chiropractic, or herbal medicine is not required but would be considered an asset.

An ideal candidate will be excited by the idea of being part of something bigger!
