Thanks for your interest in our job opening!
As you’ve probably already seen on Indeed, a lot of veterinary clinics in our area are hiring. So why consider applying with Northwoods Veterinary Clinic?

- (FT) Four-day work week with alternating Saturdays (half-day), no Sundays
- (PT) Two to three-day work week with alternating Saturdays (half-day), no Sundays
- Enrollment in Fear Free
