Hospice Veterinarian | Your Set The Hours | No Non-Compete | Concord, NC
About The Position
Heartstrings Pet Hospice provides compassionate hospice and in-home euthanasia care for pets in the comfort of their homes. The veterinarian supports pets and families through end-of-life care, taking time to listen, answer questions, explain care, and help families say goodbye with dignity and peace.

The role offers self-managed scheduling, with options ranging from two to five days per week and full-time or part-time schedules. Workdays involve a few appointments rather than a rushed clinic pace. Veterinarians select four weekend days per month.
