Job description

Build your future with a hospital rooted in experience, community, and purpose at Marin Pet Hospital in beautiful San Rafael, CA!

We are seeking a Full-Time or Part-Time Veterinarian to join our well-established small animal practice in Marin County’s North Bay. For more than 50 years, Marin Pet Hospital has been a trusted partner to generations of pet families — and that legacy shows in the loyalty of our clients and the strength of our team.

A Team Defined by Experience & Collaboration

Our hospital is supported by a highly skilled, knowledgeable veterinary team that understands the value of teamwork and efficiency. Many of our team members have deep roots in the practice and the local community, creating a culture of stability, mentorship, and mutual respect.

You’ll practice alongside colleagues who:

• Value high-quality medicine and thoughtful case management
• Support one another in surgery, dentistry, and complex cases
• Collaborate with fully boarded ophthalmologists, dermatologists, and other specialists off-site to ensure comprehensive care

This is an ideal opportunity for an experienced veterinarian with strong surgical and dental skills who is interested in stepping into a leadership role within a respected, community-centered hospital.

Deep Community Connections

Our commitment extends beyond our hospital walls. We proudly work closely with local rescue organizations, including Marin Humane, Greyhound Friends for Life, and Marin Friends of Ferals.

If you’re looking for a practice where you can truly make an impact — not just treat cases — you’ll find it here.

A Practice Designed for Quality Care

• Three or Four-day work weeks (30-40 hours)
• No overnights or weekends
• Digital radiography
• Separate surgical and dental suites
• In-house laboratory
• Onsite pharmacy

We prioritize work-life balance so you can enjoy everything the North Bay has to offer.

I would highly recommend anyone to work for a Vetcor clinic because of all the available resources they offer to their employees! These resources vary from continuing education to the importance of mental health and not burning out. Stonebridge has been one of the best places I have worked and has done nothing but help me pursue my goal of becoming an LVT.

Why You’ll Love Vetcor

Join the BEST support network, with an emphasis on individuality

There is a career path for everybody and not a one size fits all approach.

• Vetcor Team: You are joining a team of hospitals that opens the door to collaboration with a stable corporation at your back.
• Local Practice: Join a unique practice that benefits from the larger family but thrives on their individuality. Practice medicine with full autonomy and the support of experienced DVM leaders when you need it.
