Choose when, where, and how you work.

Ask yourself, “What do I need right now?” Then do that.

At IndeVets, we’re bringing something new to the vet industry: not just employment, but empowerment. Here, you design your career around your life. Not the other way around. And that starts with choosing when, where, and how you work.

Choose when you’d like to work.

Life ebbs and flows. And careers should be able to go with that flow. As an IndeVet, you always choose your schedule that fits best with your life. For us, full-time means 34 hours per week (not the 50 that AVMA says is the average), and part-time requires our vets to clock 25 hours per week.

These hours are averaged quarterly so you can change them week to week as your life, priorities, or whims dictate! You can always work more if you want—your shifts as an IndeVet are entirely up to you. Even if you do choose to work 40+ hours a week, you can still take time off around a holiday or take that vacation.

We’re humans, not robots. Schedule accordingly.

Choose where you want to work.

You’ll have plenty of places to choose from, and they’re usually within a 45-minute drive. So, mix it up, try different clinics, keep it fresh. Or just stick to your favorites.

Our virtual hospital profiles give you the 411 on every clinic—the workflows, their procedures, dress code, even where to park. It’s less first-day jitters and more hit-the-ground running the second you get there.

You’ll walk into every hospital knowing it’s been vetted by our team and is up to our standards. But if for whatever reason, a clinic doesn’t feel like the right fit for you, just say the word. We’ll manage that clinic, and you can choose to move to another hospital, We got you.

Choose how you want to practice

If you like being a general practitioner, we’ve got GP opportunities for days. Or maybe you want to focus on specialty medicine: work in urgent care, ER, surgery, or dentistry. (BTW, specialty roles even come with a pay bump.) And you don’t have to commit to one type of work either, you can mix and match. It’s totally okay to be picky, and it’s also okay to try new things. It’s all about your choice and your career.

There’s more than one way to plan your schedule too!

Full Flex: Puts you in complete control of your schedule. Each month you create your own personal schedule choosing when, where, how and how long you work. This approach allows you to change it up from month-to-month to meet your needs.
Long-Term Placement (LTP): This program is a 13-week commitment (or longer if you want) to a hospital you love for at least one shift for one day per week – at the same clinic. Plus, you get a flat bonus at the end of the commitment. You can combine LTPs with your regular IndeVets shift work to create your ideal schedule or set up several LTPs.
Associate IndeVet in Residence: This is a six-month commitment to a practice of your choosing. You have a consistent schedule on days that work for you. Plus, you get a flat bonus from the practice at the end of the residency.
Schedule Design: For those of you who don’t want to be concerned with setting your schedule each month, this program is built for you. Your Strategic Support Manager will set a schedule for two months at a time ensuring you are set up at h highly rated clinics. And just for letting us do the work for you, we’ll pay you extra.

Get paid for every minute you work.

As an IndeVet, you’ll always be competitively compensated. We pay you hourly, because it’s the best way to make sure you get paid for every minute you spend in clinic. If your shift runs long, you’re paid for every minute of it. Those extra minutes when you’re working on records? You’re paid for it. Lunch break? Paid. And there’s no production or negative accruals. (Ever.)

It also means that when you’re off, you’re off. No on-call. You’ll never hear from us late at night or be asked to come in on your day off.

Make extra when you do extra.

Want to earn more? We’ve got lots of options for that, too. We offer highly competitive compensation to all our veterinarians. And you can easily dial that up whenever you choose by picking up promoted shifts or setting up a long-term placement at your favorite hospital. There is even an extra pay bump if you choose to let us build your shift schedule for you, we call it Schedule Design. And you can combine all of these if it works for you.
