At Kindred Vet, we will help you practice to the top of your ability - think dentals, lab work, pharmacy, consulting, anaesthesia, x-rays and triage.

If you are interested in upskilling in behaviour, rehabilitation or nutrition, we are keen to support you.
And your opinion matters - if you have concerns about either an inpatient or outpatient at Kindred Vet who isn't doing as well as they could be, we want you to tell us.

About us
Kindred Vet is a new,



membership-based clinic opening in Dickson, ACT in mid-September ****.
While we still do pay-as-you-go, GP veterinary work like other clinics, we are also a little different.
Our unique membership models (Core and VIP - Very Important Pet) are designed to reduce barriers to care and encourage pet owners to address pet health concerns before they grow.
We are also co-located with the Walk In Clinic For Animals, which offers urgent after hours care to pets from 6pm every evening.
This means our patients can stay in hospital overnight with dedicated nurses caring for them 24/7, ensuring a high standard of care at all times.
Our clinic is purpose built, but housed inside a large building on the first floor.
This means there is a comfortable staff room, floor to ceiling windows that cover 2/3 of the hospital allowing natural light and views, a coffee machine, 6 consult rooms + family/grieving room built to emulate a living room at home, 2 surgical theatres + dirty procedures room + large three table treatment area, plus ultrasound room, x-ray room, wards etc.
We are also only open 8am-6pm Monday to Friday, so no weekend or public holiday work required.
Benefits
Permanent full-time or part-time roles
Good pay (well above award, happy to negotiate based on your skills and experience)
Ability to stream into your favoured area (medicine/surgery/consulting) with CPD and training to match
4-day week for full-time (no afterhours, no weekends, 1 weekday off per week)
Commitment to helping you achieve your maximum potential
Family-friendly workplace with a boss who gets the juggle and need for flexibility
