Job Description

Veterinarian – In-Home Hospice & Euthanasia Care

Dundee, Bedford Township, Monroe, Michigan & Surrounding Areas | Full-Time & Part-Time

Family Owned. NO Non-Competes. You Matter. Practice Medicine the Way You Always Hoped You Would.

Your veterinary career should be built on purpose, freedom, and respect—not restrictions.

At Heartstrings Pet Hospice, we're doing veterinary medicine differently.

We're a privately and family-owned veterinary organization where veterinarians are valued as individuals, not production numbers. We believe in professional independence, meaningful medicine, and a workplace where you stay because you want to—not because a contract says you have to.

No corporate pressure. No veterinarian non-competes. No golden handcuffs.

Just compassionate veterinary medicine and a team that genuinely values you.

Family Owned. People First.

We're proudly independent and family owned—not private equity owned. Your voice matters, your professional judgment is respected, and you're more than just another employee.

No NON-Competes. Ever.

We believe loyalty is earned, not enforced. Your career belongs to you.

Enjoy flexible scheduling opportunities, meaningful appointments, and a fulfilling career without sacrificing your personal life.

Medicine with Meaning.
