Job description

Who we are:

Calvert Animal Hospital is looking for an experienced Associate Veterinarian to join our close-knit team in Owings, MD! We’re a smaller, high-volume practice that takes pride in providing personalized care while maintaining a strong focus on work-life balance. If you’re looking for a team that feels like family, offers flexibility, and keeps things interesting, we’d love to meet you!

About the Practice Our hospital sees approximately 15-20 patients per doctor each day and has a diverse caseload consisting of 95% small animal and 5% exotic patients. We have three exam rooms, two surgical suites, a dedicated treatment area, and a paperless workflow. Appointment lengths typically range from 15-30 minutes and may vary based on each doctor’s discretion, comfort level, and the needs of the patient.

Our current equipment includes:

• Digital radiography and dental radiography
• Ultrasound
• Therapy laser
• Cautery pens

We’re also giving the hospital a fresh facelift, with updates underway to the flooring, paint, X-ray room, cabinetry, and front desk.

About the Team: Our team is truly family-oriented, and we believe work-life balance matters. On stressful days, you may find us grabbing lunch or heading out to dinner together after work. You’ll have a 2:1 doctor-to-technician/assistant ratio, one CVT, and three additional assistants currently attending tech school. We also enjoy giving our doctors opportunities to explore their interests. One of our current veterinarians performs fish and pond visits, and we’re open to supporting unique areas of interest.

Why Calvert Animal Hospital? Beyond the medicine, it’s the people who make our hospital special. We’re a supportive team that values collaboration, flexibility, and enjoying the people you work alongside. We’re also actively involved with organizations including Guiding Eyes for the Blind, Pets for Patriots, and Chesapeake Alliance Rescue.

What's in it for you:

We support our veterinarians with superior salary, benefits including health and dental, 401(k), CE days, vacation, EAP, and more.

Where we are:

Located in Calvert County, Owings is a scenic community in southern Maryland situated on a peninsula between the Chesapeake Bay and Patuxent River- offering a beautiful setting while still being within reach of the surrounding Maryland communities.
