Doctor of Veterinary Medicine: 12-Month Maternity Leave Opportunity

Are you looking for a role where you can slow down, practice thoughtfully, and be part of a team that is both incredibly talented and a whole lot of fun?

At Cochrane Companion Vet, we have built a practice centered around high-quality medicine, meaningful client relationships, longer appointment times, and a highly collaborative culture that allows our team to do their best work.

The Opportunity:

We truly believe that exceptional veterinary care starts with giving our team the time, support, and resources they need to do their best work. Rather than rushing from appointment to appointment, our veterinarians enjoy longer appointment times that allow them to build meaningful relationships with clients, thoroughly work up cases, and provide the level of care they are proud of.

In addition to longer, unrushed appointments, our team is committed to delivering exceptional patient care through:

A collaborative, team-first environment
Fear Free handling and patient advocacy
Meaningful, long-term relationships with clients and patients

While this position is being posted as a 12-month maternity leave coverage opportunity, Mosaic PetCare continues to grow, and future opportunities may be available within our network for the right candidate.
