Looking for team-minded vet to join us in Tucson, AZ. We practice excellent medicine without having to compromise care for lack of client resources. Our save rate exceeds 90%, and we've been recognized as one of the most progressive municipal shelters in the US. Pima Animal Care Center is Southern Arizona’s largest pet-adoption agency and the only shelter in our community that never turns away a pet in need. Our $22M facility was completed in 2018 with 6200sq ft clinic space.

Vet duties include HQHVSN, shelter rounds, community outreach. Days on surgery involve dental, ophthalmic, orthopedic procedures once trained. Shelter rounds entail ER triage, foster appointments, cruelty/forensic cases. Most recently, we launched a grant-funded veterinary outreach clinic to keep pets with families affected economically by COVID.

We prefer applicants interested in shelter, HQHVSN, or ER and will mentor new grads or applicants looking to shift career paths. Salary is $110K. Once surgically proficient, vets work 4x10hr shifts.
