Original job description
Across Canada, VetStrategy is a network of veterinary practices united by a shared purpose: healthy animals, happy owners.
We Bring This To Life Through Three Promises
Our Commitment To You
Are you looking to take your RVT career beyond everyday general practice while still enjoying a healthy work-life balance?
At Petworks Veterinary Hospital, you'll join a close-knit, collaborative team delivering advanced surgical, diagnostic, and rehabilitation care in a unique referral and specialty setting. Here, you'll have the opportunity to expand your skills, learn from experienced professionals, and play a meaningful role in helping patients through complex cases and specialized procedures.
What's in it for You?
A Community of Excellence Awaits You
At Petworks Veterinary Hospital, our team is united by a shared commitment to exceptional patient care and genuine support for one another. With two DVMs, three RVTs, and a dedicated support team, we foster a collaborative environment where learning, mentorship, and teamwork are part of everyday practice.
As a referral and specialty hospital, you'll work alongside experienced veterinary professionals while gaining exposure to orthopedic surgeries, radioactive iodine therapy, rhinoscopy, otoscopy, laparoscopic procedures, complex dentals, biopsies, and advanced medical cases.
Outside the hospital, our team enjoys giving back through community initiatives, including our annual Santa Paws event and ongoing support of Misfit Manor.
Located in Dartmouth, you'll enjoy the best of Nova Scotia living, with beautiful beaches, lakes, trails, and ocean access just minutes away, along with a vibrant food, arts, and cultural scene.
What You Bring
If you're ready to grow your career in a specialty hospital that values collaboration, mentorship, and work-life balance, we'd love to hear from you.
