Job description

IndeVets is on a mission to bring balance, fulfillment, and joy to veterinary medicine. We believe veterinarian jobs in Little River shouldn't force you to choose between a fulfilling career and a fulfilling life outside of work. With a schedule that fits your life and a team behind you, you can be fully present for both—and truly clock out when the day ends.

First time hearing of us? IndeVets has been founded and led by veterinarians since 2017. This is a salaried W-2 job with full benefits, not relief gig work.

IndeVets is hiring part-time associate veterinarians in Little River

These part-time veterinarian jobs in Little River give you the freedom to shape work around your life, the support to thrive, and the ability to be fully present at work and in everything that matters outside of it.

When you have room to recharge, you can bring more energy, focus, and joy into the clinic.

How these Little River veterinarian jobs work

As a part-time IndeVet, you'll work shifts at vetted partner hospitals across our Little River network. You tell us how you want to work—from your preferred days and drive radius to your clinical interests and hospital preferences—and your dedicated Scheduling Coordinator uses those preferences to curate your schedule.

Through ongoing conversations and feedback, we keep learning what works best for you and refine your shifts over time, with the goal of finding hospitals where you feel welcomed, valued, and able to do your best work.

A whole team behind you.

Independence doesn't mean going it alone. From scheduling and clinical leadership to partner hospital relationships and day-to-day logistics, there's a whole support system behind you—and people to turn to when you need help or something doesn't go as planned.

And that support is personal. We take the time to know you as a whole person—what matters to you, how you like to work, and where you want to grow.

We handle the details so you can focus on what matters.

Focus on being the best doctor you can be.

• Medicine over metrics. No production targets or exam quotas.
• Veterinary leadership. Your manager and coach is a veterinarian—not a business person.
• Clinical autonomy. Make medical decisions with the freedom and support to practice great medicine.
• A veterinary community to lean on. Join colleagues who share your commitment to great medicine—for help with a tough case, a sounding board, or simply the camaraderie of people who understand the work.

Keep growing, on your terms.

Grow your skills and career in ways that make sense for you, without sacrificing the life you've built outside of work.

We want to know where you want to go—not just where you're working next—and support the career and life you're building over time.

• CE stipend + dedicated CE time off
• Free virtual CE at least twice each month
• Coaching, mentorship, and leadership opportunities
• A work schedule that can evolve as your life does

Compensation & benefits

Available to doctors working 3–5 days/week. Core benefits including 401(k), professional liability coverage, workers' compensation, Employee Assistance Program, and online therapy sessions are available to doctors working 1–5 days/week.

• Guaranteed, transparent salary
• Medical insurance, including two options fully paid by IndeVets*
• Dental + vision insurance*
• Guilt-free PTO and paid holidays*
• Paid parental leave*
• Pet insurance discount*
• 401(k) with employer match
• CE stipend + dedicated CE time off*

What we're looking for

Requirements

• DVM or VMD from an AVMA-accredited program (or equivalent)
• Active South Carolina license or ability to obtain one
• DEA + controlled substance licenses, as applicable
• 1+ year of clinical experience in a small animal setting
• Confidence practicing independently
• Strong communication and client relationship skills

Nice-to-haves

• GP, ER, or urgent care experience
• Internship training

About IndeVets

Founded in 2017 and built by veterinarians, IndeVets exists to bring balance, fulfillment, and joy to veterinary medicine. Today, 250+ IndeVets work with 5,000+ partner hospitals across 36 states.

We believe veterinarians do their best work when they have freedom in their careers, support behind them, and a life they have time to be fully present for. Veterinarians help shape decisions across the business—from scheduling and support programs to learning and career development opportunities. They don't just have a voice here—they have a seat at the table in shaping the company.

IndeVets is an Equal Employment Opportunity Employer. Applicants are considered for positions without discrimination on the basis of race, religion, sex, national origin, citizenship, age, disability, or any other consideration made unlawful by applicable federal, state, or local laws.

I can leave work and actually leave work. There isn’t an expectation that my personal time is secondary to work or that I’m available 24/7. I can come in, do my job as a veterinarian, and then go home and enjoy my personal time. I honestly didn’t believe that was possible. This is the least stressful—and probably the most fun—the job I’ve had in years.
