We are seeking a compassionate Wellness Veterinarian to join a mission-led community animal welfare organization in northern Delaware. This role focuses on making high-quality veterinary care more accessible for dogs, cats, and the people who love them.

You will have the chance to build a sustainable veterinary career with genuine schedule flexibility, no routine on-call expectation, and a supportive team that values practical, compassionate medicine over production pressure.

Key Responsibilities

• Provide wellness care for companion animals, primarily cats and dogs.
• Support community-facing preventive care and low-cost veterinary services.
• Participate in a walk-in wellness program that can be fast-paced and high-energy.
• Perform thorough examinations, preventive care, client education, treatment planning, and timely medical documentation.

• Work collaboratively with veterinarians, care staff, and a wider mission-driven team.
• Help clients access care through resources designed to reduce financial barriers when possible.

• Confidence providing independent wellness care for dogs and cats.
• Comfort with a walk-in, community-care setting and thoughtful client communication.
• Strong clinical documentation and technology skills.
• A practical, collaborative, and compassionate approach to care.
• Alignment with the belief that veterinary care should be accessible to families facing financial constraints.

• Spanish fluency.
• Experience in shelter medicine, nonprofit or community medicine, low-cost care, high-volume wellness, or vaccine clinics.
• Familiarity with shelter-management or veterinary records systems.
• Openness to occasional weekend shifts or periodic coverage at nearby locations.

Benefits

• Flexible schedule: We will work with the right candidate to build a schedule that fits their life.
• No routine on-call: This is not an overnight or emergency on-call role.
• Mission with clinical impact: Help families care for their pets when affordability is a barrier.
• No daily production quotas: Focus on excellent, sustainable care rather than corporate volume targets.
• Collaborative setting: Join a stable, inclusive organization with deep roots in the Delaware community.

• Compensation starting around $65 per hour, with consideration based on experience and fit.
• Medical, dental, vision, life insurance, and 401(k) match for employees working 30+ hours per week.
• Paid family leave.
• Licensure and continuing education support.
• Generous accrued PTO, plus paid holidays and a floating personal holiday.
• Potential signing support may be available for the right candidate.

The process is designed to move quickly:

1. Initial conversation.
2. In-person panel interview.
3. Paid four-to-six-hour shadow session with the veterinary team.
4. Offer decision.

If you are a veterinarian looking for more autonomy, more purpose, and a healthier pace without stepping away from meaningful clinical work, we would welcome the conversation.
