Job description

Feline-Only Associate Veterinarian

Location: A Cat Clinic – Boyds, Maryland

We’re seeking a compassionate Feline-Only Associate Veterinarian who shares our deep love for cats and commitment to exceptional feline care.

As an AAHA-accredited and Gold Level Cat Friendly Practice, our hospital is devoted solely to feline health. Since opening in 1986 (and relocating to our current facility in 2005), we’ve built a loyal clientele and a close-knit team of “cat people” who are proud to deliver gold‑standard veterinary care in a warm, stress‑free environment that keeps clients coming back.

Why You’ll Love Working With Us

Our modern facility features advanced technology including:

• Digital radiography (full-body and dental)
• Ultrasound
• Comprehensive in-house diagnostics

You’ll work alongside two ABVP board-certified feline doctors and a highly skilled team trained in feline-specific handling and care. If you’re interested in becoming board-certified yourself, we’re happy to support and mentor you along the way.

We also value work-life balance—our veterinarians are not required to handle after-hours emergencies.

• 401(k) retirement plan
• Paid vacation, sick leave, and holidays
• Continuing education support and in-house training
• Paid state licensing and DEA fees
