Employment Opportunities

We are always looking for enthusiastic, hard working, dedicated, and pro-active animal loving individuals to join our highly respected family here at Animals First + Veterinary Hospital, Urgent Care & Wellness Center, where we treat every pet like family.

We are currently hiring for:

Join a Team That Values You!

At Animals First Veterinary Hospital, we do things differently. We are a well-established, privately owned veterinary practice with a collaborative, growth-minded team that believes great medicine starts with great people. As we expand from a single-doctor to a two-doctor practice, we are seeking a part-time or full-time Associate DVM to join our growing team.

This is an excellent opportunity for a veterinarian who values personalized care, continuity with clients, and the ability to practice high-quality medicine in a welcoming, close-knit environment. For the right candidate, there is also potential for future practice ownership through a buy-in or partnership opportunity.

Qualified candidates must be graduates of an accredited veterinary school and hold an active New Jersey veterinary license. Both experienced veterinarians and motivated newer graduates are encouraged to apply.

What You’ll Do

  • Provide high-quality, compassionate medical, surgical, and dental care to patients
  • Build strong relationships with clients through clear, supportive communication
  • Collaborate with a skilled support team and fellow veterinarian in a positive, team-oriented environment
  • Contribute ideas, share cases, and help shape the medical direction of the practice
  • Enjoy autonomy in your medicine with mentorship and collaboration always available

Who We’re Looking For

  • A Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM or VMD) with an active New Jersey veterinary license
  • A positive, team-oriented doctor who values communication, integrity, and collaboration
  • Someone who enjoys teaching, learning, and sharing knowledge
  • Knowledge and experience in general veterinary medicine and soft tissue surgery
  • Strong communication skills to clearly explain diagnostic and treatment recommendations and support client follow-through
  • The ability to communicate effectively with clients and all levels of staff
  • Interest in a specific area—surgery, dentistry, internal medicine, rehabilitation, etc.—is a plus

Compensation & Benefits

We offer a competitive and flexible compensation package based on experience, schedule, and production. Full-time Associate DVM compensation typically ranges from $125,000–$150,000 under a ProSal compensation model, with additional earning potential based on experience and productivity. Compensation is negotiable, and we welcome open conversations to ensure the right fit.

Benefits may include:

  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Paid time off
  • Continuing education allowance
  • License reimbursement
  • 401(k)
  • Staff discounts
  • Uniform allowance
  • Structured mentorship and leadership development
  • Ownership or partnership potential

We are committed to supporting a healthy work-life balance and creating an environment where your input is valued and your career can grow. New graduates are encouraged to apply and will receive mentorship and collaborative case support tailored to their comfort level and goals.

Hours of Operation & Scheduling

Our hospital is open 7 days a week from 8:30 AM to 7:30 PM.

Full-time schedules are typically around 45 hours per week with rotating weekends. Part-time and flexible scheduling options are also available.

About the Clinic

At Animals First Veterinary Hospital, we’re more than just a veterinary hospital—we’re a team that supports one another, celebrates wins big and small, and believes in practicing medicine the right way. Our modern facility offers digital radiology, an in-house laboratory, and therapeutic laser services while serving the pets of South Jersey with compassion and integrity.

We believe excellent patient care starts with a supported team, so we invest in our people through continuing education, mentorship, and a culture that genuinely values balance and collaboration.
