Employees are our priority. We offer competitive salary, incentive compensation, and an attractive benefits package, all intended to prevent burnout and enable you to focus on what you love: providing quality care to pets and their families.

We have 3 locations within the New Brunswick area (Moncton, Quispamsis, Fredericton) and 1 location in PEI (Charlottetown) which means our growing network of DVM’s, RVT’s, VA’s and CSR’s are readily available to help support each other with case discussions, questions, mentorship and training.

The urgent care model provides an engaging caseload, focusing on sick or urgent cases without the daily routine vaccines, spays, neuters and preventative medicine. See more of the cases you love with a flexible schedule and competitive compensation
