About The Position

The ASPCA is seeking Relief Veterinarians to pick up shifts at our Recovery & Rehabilitation Center (R&R) in Pawling, NY. Our Flex workforce plays an important role enabling the ASPCA to serve animals by rounding out schedules, providing surge capacity, covering leaves and other vacancies, and more. The work is flexible – you pick your shifts and locations. The work is meaningful – you get the opportunity to sharpen skillsets, engage in diverse work, and keep skills fresh that you may not use on a frequent basis, all while serving the most vulnerable animals in the country. Who We Are : At the ASPCA® (American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals), we’re proud to work with a broad and talented team of professionals who help drive our mission to prevent animal cruelty and promote animal well-being across the country. Since 1866, we’ve been at the forefront of animal welfare, and every member of our extended team contributes to our hands-on work, advocacy, and education efforts. By working with the ASPCA, you’re helping improve the lives of animals and the people who care about them. The R&R is a specialized facility designed to provide integrated sheltering, behavioral, and medical care for canines recovering from cruelty and neglect. The team works closely with ASPCA colleagues in NYC to support the continued recovery of dogs involved in NYPD animal cruelty cases. Treatment planning is resource-driven and incorporates both physical and mental well-being. Available diagnostics include in-house and send-out laboratory testing, as well as in-house digital radiology and point-of-care ultrasound. The department is also equipped with dental radiology, a robust pharmacy, and the capability to perform a variety of soft tissue surgical and dental procedures.
