About us
Locally owned by Johan and Brunhilda who split their time between Street Vets for Pets and their sister practices in Bridgewater and Weston Super Mare, you'll be joining a small and friendly team with most of the team having been with us for over 5 years!

As well as strong clinical skills, we're also looking for someone skilled in building strong relationships with patients and clients, as well as someone who thrives working as part of a great team.

The role is full time but with part time hours also considered and will include a 1 in 4 weekend rota.

Our aim is to reflect the diversity of the communities we operate in, and every colleague can help us achieve this. We encourage our people to be themselves so even if your skills and experience don't perfectly align, if you think you can make a unique contribution through your values and behaviours, we want to hear from you!
