No weekends. A two-doctor team. And a day where a bearded dragon is just as likely to be on the schedule as a Labrador. We are working on behalf of a well-established, AAHA-accredited small animal and exotics hospital in Castro Valley, CA, that is looking to welcome an Associate Veterinarian to its team. The practice has been part of the local community for many years and has built a loyal, community-driven client base, backed by more than 400 five-star reviews. You would be joining two experienced veterinarians and a friendly, close-knit support team who genuinely see themselves as a work family, built on respect and a shared commitment to the pets and people they serve. The caseload is rooted in general practice, covering wellness and preventive care, vaccinations, dentistry, surgery, in-house diagnostics, imaging and ultrasound, and same-day urgent care appointments. Demand for exotic pet care is growing, and the team shares a real passion for exotics, especially reptiles. That makes this a great fit for a veterinarian who already enjoys exotics or wants to build that side of their caseload with a team that is excited about it. The hospital runs Monday to Friday and is closed on weekends, so you get a schedule that supports a life outside of work without compromising on the quality of medicine. Behind the practice sits the support of a wider hospital network, with shared clinical expertise, a strong benefits package, and consistent opportunities to grow your career over the long term.
