Join a team where your wellbeing matters as much as your clinical skills.
At Airdrie VetsforPets, we’re looking for a passionate Veterinary Surgeon with at least 1 year of experience to join our friendly and growing team—on a full-time or part-time basis.
About Our Practice
The practice opened in 2012, so we have a large loyal client base and see a wide variety of interesting cases. The previous owner decided to step down in 2022 and the practice was bought by Andrea, Jenny, & Jane in 2024. Between the 3 of us, we have over 50 years of experience working in the veterinary industry. We have worked in different types of practice and this has giving us insight into what it takes to have a healthy, enjoyable and productive work environment.

We also offer paid overtime or time off in lieu if you do stay late—because your time matters.
