Internal Relief Veterinarian

Job Description

Three Hospitals. One Culture. One Standard of Care.

• Covering for doctors on vacation or leave, stepping in seamlessly, and bringing your best every time you walk through the door.
• Canobie Lake Veterinary Hospital — Windham, NH | 2024 AAHA Practice of the Year
• All Pets Veterinary Hospital — Nashua, NH
• Greenland Veterinary Hospital — Greenland, NH

Qualifications

• Your Schedule: Flexible by Design
• Monday–Friday only, no weekend shifts ever
• You are not obligated to fill every open shift—your time off is protected
• 5 weeks of PTO annually
• 30 hours of CE per year, covered
• $2,500 CE allowance to invest in your continued growth
• Hospital closes 2 hrs/week for rounds and training—you’re always in the loop, never out of it

What Relief Actually Looks Like Here

• We know what bad relief work feels like. You show up to chaos. Nobody knows you’re coming. The team is frazzled, the systems are unclear, and you spend half the day figuring out where things are instead of practicing medicine.
• That is not what you’ll find here. Our hospitals are well-run, team-driven, and deeply collaborative. When you arrive, the staff knows who you are, what you need, and how to support you. You’ll be welcomed—not just tolerated.
• Each hospital is powered by three integrated teams—the Customer Experience Team (CET), Technicians (TT), and Veterinary Assistants (VA)—all working in sync to make sure every appointment runs smoothly and every patient gets top-notch care. You step in, you do the medicine, and the team handles the rest.

Who You Are

• DVM or equivalent, with an active New Hampshire veterinary license (or eligibility to obtain)
• Confident and adaptable—you walk into new environments and hit the ground running
• Proficient in general medicine, surgery, and dentistry (surgery and dental optional)
• Experience with avian and exotic species is a welcome bonus, not a requirement
• A clear communicator who works well with teams you’ve never met before
• Reliable and accountable—you show up, you do the work, and you do it well
• A great attitude, because culture matters and kindness travels with you from hospital to hospital

What We Offer

• Competitive compensation
• 5 weeks of PTO annually—real time off, not just a number on paper
• 30 hours of CE + $2,500 CE allowance
• Full benefits: medical, dental, vision, life, liability, 401(k), EAP, pet discounts
• No administrative tail—your after-shift hours are yours
• No weekends, ever
• Advanced equipment at all three hospitals: digital rads, dental rads, Class IV laser, ultrasound, full in-house lab
• Specialist access: boarded surgeon, cardiologist, two traveling internists
• The full support of a 28-year owner who understands the demands of a veterinary career and genuinely invests in her team
• A path forward: if a permanent role, mentorship, or future partnership ever interests you—the door is open

New Hampshire: The Best Place to Be

• 40 min to Boston • 45 min to the beaches • 45 min to ski mountains • No income or sales tax
• New Hampshire is consistently ranked among the top 3 best states to live in the U.S., frequently securing the #2 spot overall in U.S. News & World Report's annual rankings for 2024 and 2025. It is lauded for its high quality of life, often ranking #1 in safety (crime and corrections), top-tier education, and economic opportunity.
• Four seasons of beauty: summer lakes, peak foliage, ski slopes, and flowers in March.
