Hospice Veterinarian | Your Set The Hours | No Non-Compete | Seattle, WA
About the role
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.

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 that families will remember for the rest of their lives. You’ll practice independently on the road but never be on your own—our team invests in your training, growth, and well‑being from day one.
