Petco Veterinary Services offers relief veterinarians shifts in two settings: Vetco Vaccination Clinics and Vetco Total Care full-service veterinary hospitals. Vaccination Clinics provide basic wellness checks, vaccinations, heartworm testing, and microchip placement; they do not provide surgery, emergency, or illness care. Most are located in Petco stores, with some operating from mobile van units. Vetco Total Care hospitals provide preventive care, diagnostic workups, outpatient surgeries, and dental procedures. Hospitals have digital dental X-rays, Butterfly IQ+ Vet ultrasound imaging, and equipped surgery suites. Licensed and trained hospital staff support care, and there are no overnight or emergency on-call shifts. Relief veterinarians can use flexible online scheduling, choose from weekday and weekend shifts, and set their own rate for each shift. There is no minimum or maximum number of shifts, veterinarians may continue practice activities outside Petco shifts, and no agency fees apply. An appointment-based model helps manage patient flow and support timely departures, while trained staff handle operations. Clinic updates are provided through a monthly newsletter. Veterinarians also receive a 15% discount on Petco products and services.
