Questions vets ask us first.

What states do you cover?

Our primary focus is California — especially San Diego, Los Angeles, and Orange County. We’re actively expanding nationwide, so if you’re licensed elsewhere it’s still worth submitting your info.

For most current openings, a California license is required. That said, we work with vets licensed in other states as our nationwide network grows — tell us where you’re licensed and we’ll match accordingly.

No — we place vets in both relief/per-diem and permanent roles. Let us know what you’re looking for and we’ll focus on the right kind of opportunities.

We typically respond within one business day. From there, timing depends on your availability and the openings that fit — some relief shifts move quickly, while permanent placements take a bit longer to get right.

Never. Our service is completely free for veterinarians. The hiring practice covers placement — you just focus on the work you want.

We guide you through what each placement requires and keep the process organized, so onboarding with a new clinic is as smooth as possible.
