In-Home Euthanasia & Pet Hospice Veterinarian - No Non-Compete | Fresno, CA
About the role
Heartstrings Pet Hospice is hiring an In-Home Hospice and Euthanasia Veterinarian to serve pet families across Fresno, Herndon, Sunnyside, Clovis, and Rolling Hills, California. This role offers the opportunity to practice medicine without a waiting room, double-booked schedules, or corporate production dashboards—just you, a family who loves their pet, and the time to do it right.
We are a privately held, family-owned, and doctor-led veterinary practice that does not use non-compete contracts. Your career here is built on your own terms, and we aim to earn the right to be part of it.
Who thrives here
The veterinarians who excel in this role are those who are skilled at having difficult conversations and find deep meaning in end-of-life care. If you’ve ever finished a euthanasia appointment and wished you had more time to spend with the family, this role is designed for you.
This position is ideal for experienced doctors looking to step away from the fast pace of general or emergency practice without leaving medicine behind. It’s also a great fit for veterinarians returning from a break or building a schedule around family commitments.
