Job Description

Build a Veterinary Schedule That Works for You!

Ridgetop Animal Hospital in Silverdale, Washington is looking for an experienced veterinarian to join our growing team, with a special focus on helping us expand our weekend urgent care availability.

Whether you're looking for a dedicated Saturday position, a few shifts each week, or a full-time opportunity that combines urgent care with general practice or surgery, we're open to building a schedule around the right veterinarian.

Your Schedule, Your Opportunity

Our biggest priority is adding Saturday urgent care, with a proposed schedule of:

Saturday: 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM

Interested in more hours? We'd love to talk!

Weekday urgent care shifts are typically:

8:00 AM - 4:00 PM or 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM

Additional weekday opportunities may include general practice appointments and, depending on your interests and experience, surgery.

We're open to part-time or full-time schedules and want to create an opportunity that works well for both you and our hospital.

What We're Looking For

We're especially interested in a veterinarian who is comfortable with urgent and same-day cases and enjoys the variety that comes with an unpredictable caseload.

ER or urgent care experience is a plus, but we're also happy to speak with an experienced GP veterinarian who is confident managing sick and urgent patients and is interested in expanding those skills.

Depending on your interests, your role can be focused primarily on urgent care or can incorporate general practice, dentistry, and/or surgery.

Most importantly, we're looking for someone who values collaborative medicine, communicates well with both clients and teammates, and wants to become part of a hospital that is continuing to grow.

Compensation & Benefits

Salary Range: $130,000-$160,000. Compensation will be competitive and based on experience, schedule, and the structure of the position.

For eligible positions, our benefits package may include:
  • Sign-On/relocation assistance
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) with employer match
  • Paid time off
  • Continuing education support
  • Professional dues and licensing support
  • Employee pet care discounts

Help Us Build What's Next at Ridgetop

We're intentionally taking a thoughtful approach to expanding our weekend availability. We're not simply trying to fill a shift - we're looking for the right veterinarian to help us grow this next chapter of Ridgetop.

If you've wanted the excitement and variety of urgent care without committing to a traditional emergency schedule - or you're looking for a flexible veterinary position that can be built around your strengths - we'd love to meet you.

Come practice great medicine, take on interesting cases, and help us bring expanded urgent care access to the Kitsap Peninsula.
