Sploot Veterinary Care is a new kind of veterinary clinic, blending

Urgent Care and General Practice

to provide pets with high-quality care when they need it. We were founded by compassionate individuals who wanted to

rewrite the rules

of vet med - prioritizing our team's well-being as much as our patients'. Our Denver clinics are

tech-forward and innovative

(we use tools like _CoVET AI Scribe_ for medical notes and offer laparoscopic surgery as a modern, non-invasive surgery option), and our culture is all about

collaboration, learning, and fun

. We're building the future of vet care, and we want you to be a part of it!

Why You'll Love Working at Sploot :

Diverse Caseload (Urgent + Primary) :

_Boredom? Not here._ You'll handle everything from vaccines and puppy checks to stabilizing minor emergencies. One day it's a routine dental cleaning, the next you're assisting in surgery on a swallowed sock. You'll

learn every day

and

use the full range of your skills

, becoming the best tech you can be.
