Prefer to watch instead of read? Check out “Inside Modern Animal” for a glimpse into what makes Modern Animal different.
With a technology-forward approach and a deep commitment to our people, Modern Animal is building the next generation of general practice veterinary care—one that balances the needs of practitioners just as much as pet owners and their animals. Our veterinarians are equipped with the tools, structure and support they need to practice the highest quality of medicine, without compromising on the boundaries between work and life.
At Modern Animal, we’re reimagining the veterinary experience — for animals, their humans, and the humans who care for them. We’re hiring a Virtual Care Veterinarian to join our incredible Virtual Care Team and provide high-quality care through our innovative digital platform. This role is a fully remote position.
Our veterinarians are empowered to do their best work with the right tools, strong clinical support, and a culture that prioritizes wellness and excellence in equal measure. If you’re passionate about client communication, flexible by nature, and eager to work at the forefront of veterinary medicine, this may be the perfect role for you.
Schedule requirements of this role include: 3 or 4 day work week 8am-6pm PST with a regularly scheduled Saturday or Sunday shift.
What you’ll be working on:
- Deliver empathetic, high-quality virtual care to pets and pet parents across Arizona, California, Colorado, and Texas in partnership with in-clinic veterinarians
- Provide client education and counseling for existing medical issues, leveraging strong communication skills to build trust and clarity
- Formulate and execute diagnostic and treatment plans and adjust them as new information becomes available
- Ensure medical continuity and quality by collaborating closely with other veterinarians and support staff as you report lab work, answer medical questions, and review medication requests.
- Navigate client escalations with professionalism and a sense of ownership
- When needed, consult with specialists and refer or transfer care appropriately
- Actively contribute to process improvements and provide feedback on product and software updates
What you’ll bring to the team:
- Be open to new ideas, new tools, and new ways of doing things. You seek feedback, learn quickly, and enjoy evolving your practice.
- Have exceptional written and verbal communication skills. You listen actively, respond with clarity, and show compassion in every interaction with our Members, and with the team — even over chat or video.
- Ability to prioritize, manage time effectively, and stay organized in a digital environment. You get the important stuff done, without sacrificing quality or care.
- Thrive in change, stay grounded when things shift, and can quickly recalibrate. You embrace uncertainty as an opportunity to grow.
To help you live well:
- Guaranteed salaries
- No non-competes
- Annual CE allowance and paid CE days
- Paid time off, paid sick time, paid parental leave, and paid holidays
- Stellar benefits package including health, dental, vision, and 401K with a company match
