About The Position
Petco Veterinary Services offers relief veterinarians shifts at Vetco Vaccination Clinics and Vetco Total Care full-service veterinary hospitals. Veterinarians can use flexible online scheduling to choose available shifts, with no minimum or maximum shift requirement, and set their own rate for each shift. They may continue practice activities outside Petco shifts, and no agency fees apply. The appointment-based model is designed to manage patient flow and help veterinarians leave on time.

Vetco Total Care hospitals provide preventive care, diagnostic workups, outpatient surgeries, and dental procedures. Their equipment includes digital dental X-rays, Butterfly IQ+ Vet ultrasound imaging, and surgery suites with heated hydraulic tables and full anesthesia monitoring. Hospital staff are licensed and trained, and relief shifts do not involve overnight or emergency on-call work. Washington state bid rates average $122.00–$153.00 per hour. Shift rates may vary based on clinic location and shift duration.
