Veterinary Route Service Specialist – Trusted Journey

Before You Apply — What This Role Requires

This is not a desk job and not a traditional driving role.

As a Veterinary Route Service Specialist at Gateway, you are the primary, face‑to‑face representative of our company to veterinary clinics and, at times, pet parents. You work independently, manage a demanding route, and handle pets in emotionally sensitive situations with precision, professionalism, and care.

This role is physically active, emotionally real, and operationally critical. From the moment a pet is entrusted to you, everything downstream depends on your accuracy, reliability, and judgment.

If you take pride in doing meaningful work, value professionalism, enjoy building relationships, and are comfortable with physical and emotional responsibility, this role can be deeply rewarding.

About Gateway Services

Gateway Services is North America’s leading pet aftercare provider, trusted by over 17,000 veterinary clinics. With more than 2,300 team members across 140+ locations, we support pet parents with dignity, compassion, and care — one pet at a time.

(Don’t worry if you haven’t worked in pet aftercare before — we’ll provide training!)

Job Overview

The Veterinary Route Service Specialist role sits at the very start of the pet aftercare process.

You are the link between Gateway and our veterinary partners, responsible for:

• Building and maintaining trusted clinic relationships
• Ensuring pets are handled and transported with dignity
• Executing pickups and deliveries accurately and on time
• Protecting trust through professionalism and attention to detail

This is a relationship-driven role with high accountability, requiring independence, organization, and composure in sensitive environments.

The Veterinary Route Service Specialist role reports to the Care Center Manager.

The Veterinary Route Service Specialist supports veterinary partners by providing professional, compassionate pickup and delivery services on an assigned route. This role requires exceptional accuracy, integrity, and sensitivity.

Key Responsibilities

• Review daily routes, load required equipment, and ensure all items are correct before departure
• Visit assigned veterinary clinics, maintain strong professional relationships, and follow clinic procedures
• Retrieve deceased pets respectfully, often from chest freezers, with awareness of public and clinic environments
• Use company technology to scan pets at pickup and delivery; double check names, IDs, and instructions
• Accurately document requests and complete all follow through
• Interact with pet parents occasionally, with compassion and professionalism
• Return to the Care Center to unload pets, place them correctly, and complete scanning and handoff to Operations
• Maintain full responsibility for each pet until properly received and documented
• Serve as the primary point of contact for clinics, building strong, respectful relationships and addressing questions or concerns promptly
• Deliver consistent, compassionate, high quality service while gathering feedback to improve the clinic experience
• Complete all route stops accurately and on time; anticipate clinic needs and follow all safety and company policies
• Maintain cleanliness and professionalism of vehicle, equipment, and uniform
• Support basic account related administrative tasks
• Provide clinics with information on available services and commemorative options; distribute approved materials
• Identify service opportunities and refer potential leads to Business Development
