Overview

Become an Urgent Care Doctor at Scout Veterinary Urgent Care. We have a clear vision on urgent care and how this specialty fits into our profession and communities. Our same-day and next-day appointment structure aims to truly partner with primary care and ER, allowing us to treat more sick and injured pets while creating a sustainable, fulfilling career for veterinary professionals.

Our clinics are designed to reduce friction for clients and teams, so that everyone can focus on what matters most—helping pets.

• Detail-oriented, collaborative, and thrive in fast-paced settings
• Strong communicator with a growth mindset
• Committed to medical excellence and psychological safety

• 40-hour average clinical week

We care a lot. Founded by 2 DVMs, we have an employee- and team-first philosophy. We are servant leaders who support our teams with structured onboarding, quarterly check-ins, and the flexibility to make the best decisions for patients and teams.

We’re building something meaningful—and we’re doing it together. If you’re here to focus on your craft or help shape the future of our growing network—or both—you’ll find purpose, support, and possibility here. We lean into innovation and embrace the future in ways that support the people needed to deliver care.
