Field Veterinarian - Tampa

The Farmer's Dog • Tampa, FL

3d • $120,000 - $140,000 • Remote

About The Position

At The Farmer’s Dog, we believe that dogs deserve better — better nutrition, better care, and a better life. Our mission is to revolutionize dog health through proper nutrition, education, and advocacy, because what we feed our dogs directly impacts how they feel, live, and thrive.
This mission goes far beyond food — it's about reshaping how we think about canine wellness, empowering veterinary professionals and the dogs and owners that they care for, to make informed, compassionate choices for dogs everywhere.
We’re looking for a Field Veterinarian to help bring this mission to life. This is a role for a veterinarian that is unlike any other - you'll be part educator, part advocate, and part strategic partner, working directly with veterinary teams to make a lasting impact and help them expand their use of nutrition.
This role requires an independent and strategic thinker. We want an individual who thrives on the idea of taking a larger initiative, building it from the ground up, and shaping how we engage with the veterinary community in a region.
If you’re a veterinarian who cares deeply about advancing canine nutrition, building relationships, and making a bigger impact on dog health — we want to meet you.

Requirements

• A Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM or equivalent) and an active veterinary license in good standing.
• 5+ years of clinical experience in companion animal general practice.
• A passion for nutrition, wellness, and advancing dog health.
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills — you love connecting with people and having real conversations.
• A working vehicle, a valid U.S. driver’s license and willingness to travel frequently, with local travel (approximately 60–70%) to veterinary practices, partners, and industry events within the Denver territory.
• Curiosity, positivity, and a mission-driven mindset — you’re here to make a difference for dogs.

Nice To Haves

• An excellent communicator — whether you’re chatting 1:1, speaking at a conference, or collaborating internally.
• Passionate about dog nutrition — you believe what dogs eat is foundational to their health and longevity, and you believe that fresh is an ideal way to get there.
• A connector and educator — approachable, motivating, and able to build trust and relationships inside and outside the company.
• A collaborator — curious, creative, and energized by working with others to solve tough challenges, even when they feel ambiguous and uncertain.
• A self-starter and leader — ready to take initiative and drive change, working independently to create something new.
• A trusted coach and mentor — you know how to uplift others, share knowledge, and develop meaningful partnerships.
• Confident yet humble and flexible — you bring expertise without ego and adapt as needed.
• Comfortable with change and ambiguity — knowing that making a meaningful impact means trying new things, navigating uncertainty, and challenging the status quo.
• A lifelong learner with a growth mindset — open to new ideas and always seeking to improve.
• Committed to best medicine — always learning, growing, and advocating for what’s right for dogs and their people.

Responsibilities

• Engage deeply in the veterinary and canine health community — becoming a trusted thought leader and a credible, compassionate advocate for dogs.
• Champion fresh canine nutrition — helping veterinary teams discover how fresh, personalized nutrition can revolutionize dog care—aiding in disease management, wellness, and improving quality of life.
• Educate and empower veterinarians and the hospital team through engaging conversations, lectures, roundtables, and direct collaboration — always focused on the real-world needs of dogs and the veterinary teams who serve them. You not only deliver high-quality education but also actively identify learners' needs and interests to shape the educational content we create.
• Bring the "voice of the veterinary professionals" to our internal teams — shaping product and marketing strategies, so that everything we create is grounded in what veterinarians, their teams, and the dogs they care for, truly need.
• Coach and collaborate with our internal teams, helping them connect meaningfully with veterinary partners and stay aligned with best medicine and nutritional science.
• Partner with leadership to develop innovative strategies that drive lasting change in how the veterinary community approaches nutrition.
• Invest in your own growth and knowledge — staying current on veterinary and nutrition science, practice management, and the evolving needs of pets and their people.
