Hospice Veterinarian | Your Set The Hours | No Non-Compete | Milwaukee, WI
About the role
Practice Medicine the Way You Always Hoped You Would! Stay Because You Want, Not Because You Have To! We DO NOT believe in Non-Competes! Family Owned, NOT Backed by Private Equity! Some of the most important moments in a pet's life happen at the very end, and they deserve a veterinarian who has the time to be fully present. At Heartstrings Pet Hospice, we bring gentle hospice and in-home euthanasia care to families right where their pets feel safest: at home, on a favorite blanket, surrounded by the people who love them. We're looking for a Compassionate Veterinarian who wants to practice medicine that matters, without the pace and pressure of a traditional clinic. Here, you won't be watching the clock or rushing from room to room. You'll be sitting on living room floors, answering hard questions with kindness, and helping families say goodbye with dignity and peace. It's quiet, meaningful work, and the families you serve will remember you for the rest of their lives. You'll practice independently on the road, but you'll never be on your own. Our team is built on the belief that the people who care for grieving families need care too, so we invest in your training, your growth, and your well-being from day one.
