The positive and collaborative culture, combined with the joy of working with animals and competitive benefits, makes it a truly rewarding place to work. If you’re looking for a place where your contributions matter and where you can grow both personally and professionally, Sploot Vets is the place to be.

Working at Sploot gives you the opportunity to experience a little bit of everything. Every day is different. we see wellness appointments, sick visits, urgent care cases, and everything in between. From vaccines and preventive care to hospitalizations and emergency surgeries, you quickly learn to appreciate the balance between general practice and urgent care. The variety of cases has helped me become a more confident and well-rounded veterinary professional, and I've learned how to approach almost any case that walks through the door while understanding the appropriate next steps for each patient.

One of the things that truly sets Sploot apart is its culture. The nurses and veterinarians treat one another with respect and foster a supportive, family-like environment. This is especially noticeable when helping at sister clinics or working at a different location—you are consistently welcomed as part of the team. That sense of collaboration makes a big difference and creates an environment where everyone wants to help each other succeed.

Like any veterinary practice, management has its challenges and quirks. However, I've never worked somewhere that genuinely takes the time to listen to employees' concerns and work alongside them to find solutions. Feeling heard and supported has made a meaningful impact on my experience.

The most challenging part of working at Sploot is the schedule, which can vary due to sister clinic coverage and changing hours. While the flexibility can take some adjustment, the positive culture and supportive team make those changes much easier to navigate.

The best part of working at Sploot is the level of medicine we provide and the people I get to work with every day. We are able to make a real difference for our patients while maintaining a fun, collaborative atmosphere. It's a fast-paced environment that encourages growth, teamwork, and compassionate patient care, making it a rewarding place to build a career in veterinary medicine.

Work was fun and stable during start business. Team was concise, cohesive, and unified. Management was clear and trusting of team. This changed over time and the need to get a body in to fill a role prioritized hiring qualified and appropriate staff. Management spent more time micro managing team the more we grew- easier to have supervisors triple check every staff member's work and responsibilities than train a team you trust to do their job. Management is often pushing for staff to pick up shifts or change locations with no notice. Staff often bribed to pick up ot shifts. Management will expect staff to solve manager concerns before addressing themselves. 

CEO is constantly preaching that Sploot is different and better than any other vet out there and that Sploot is going to change veterinary medicine, though, they quickly became the same as any other larger chain vet after 4+ locations. Front desk team has ever revolving door of staff- including manager, some locations lack a Medical Director. Company will mislead staff with role changes; I've seen management lie about what responsibilities a role has, promise promotions staff and frequently no follow through. I've seen Sploot have to pay staff significant bonuses to stay when employee wants to quit as they are desperate for competent staff. 

 It's good while you're on the good side of management. Popular staff become part of inner circle and get special treatment. This is not based on skill - but who inner administration likes, and that quickly changes when you're no longer performing at 150%.

Most doctors practice good medicine. There's some room for growth within company, though, limited to a small few positions. There is a glass ceiling for most hourly employees. Technology and facilities are new and in great condition. There is decent diversity and representation, still room for improvement. 

Schedule is a nightmare. There are weeks you will get it a week in advance and others you will get it 2 days prior to a scheduled shift, but it's constantly changing.

Only a few receptionists have a background in the field. They actually look for people who don't have background in this field which is a constant struggle. Not to mention training lasts maybe a week, if that, and you're always frustrated with incorrect scheduling, not having records, forgotten weights, missing signalments on pets, and just overall irritation for the medical staff.

If you have an issue managers will respond in maybe 5 business days, and they don't work weekends or holidays, but as medical staff you're there 7 days a week and required to work weekends/holidays. Also the managers ARE NEVER in clinic so they go off heresay which is extremely unprofessional.

If you work over time or holidays watch your paycheck. Many times my paycheck was wrong and I had to wait days to hear back from management. 

Skills don't matter. They only care if you fit into their culture. So if you're quiet, love,  doing the work of 3 people, and don't complain this is the place for you. 

Management will make you so many promises, but never follow through with anything. Also they advertise a fully stocked kitchen but they rarely send the money to get the snacks ordered and also threaten to take away snacks if the clinic is not spotless or you don't fill out their weekly survey. 

You can't trust having a conversation with anyone. If you are frustrated or upset keep it to yourself or you will be marked as a drama starter. 

As for pay, they do compensate well but ppx will make more than an assistant, and the only way you will ever get a raise is if you move up levels in their levels book or if you threaten to leave. 

Lastly, if you are a nursing mom you don't get privacy for pumping. Only 1 out of the 4 open hospitals has a room you can use, which is illegal, but patients come first so if that room is in use good luck finding elsewhere to pump. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
I feel incredibly fortunate to have found Sploot when I first moved to Denver. Finding a good work culture in vet med can be a daunting task but I felt immediately welcomed & valued at Sploot. It has the feel of a private practice but with organized structure & modern policy that the DVM's and support staff actually help shape. I appreciate the modern equipment & medicine. The clean aesthetic of the clinics makes it easier to come to work each day. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The only downside (which wasn't really a big deal for me but it did seem to have an impact on others) is that the clinic is open 7 days a week. Hours can vary from 8-6, 8-8, or 10-8. If you enjoy weekends off, this might not be the best fit - but it does make for a more flexible schedule as you can work any day of the week. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Genuine and certainly the most organized clinic I have ever worked for. The managers do monthly check in's with staff to see how things are going.  If there is interpersonal conflict in a clinic, it is taken seriously. Thoughtful training - you are not thrown in on day one. Your skills are actually evaluated to see what areas you can grow in. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Unless there is an absence these clinics are staffed at a ratio of 3:1 so it never feels overwhelming, which relative to most clinics I have worked at before, that is so generous. We have a pretty straightforward procedure for rooms and surgery days so they flow well, the team knows their roles going in each day and I've always found my team members (even DVM's) willing to jump in and help out any way they can.  It's still vet med so every day is unpredictable - but you have the support when you need it.

I applied thinking that they care about their employees, but beside good compensations and benefits, they do not. As someone who is new to the field, people there did not treat me with respect and think very lowly of me. They spoke to me like I was stupid, and also in a passive aggressive tone, without teaching me the right way to do so. They said I have room to learn, but did not give me room to do it. I was constantly being interrupted and micromanaged at every single thing I do, it was making me feel intimidated and scared to the point that it was affecting my usual performance. I also heard certain people would talk behind my back and telling others to keep a look out for me. After that, I come into work every day feeling isolated and like there was a target on my back. The only people that made me feel welcomed was fellow new hires of techs and doctors, not the people that’s been there for long. The new techs/assistants that just got hired are the ones that actually taught me and encouraged me to do well more than anybody there. The manager and shift lead should be the one to judge my performance but they were barely present. I cried almost every day from the pressure of working there. They didn’t care that even though they told me I took in criticisms and improved a lot, they ended up letting me go since they believed I should get more training elsewhere then come back with more experience. They don’t have a proper training system for someone that’s new to the field like me as they said, then I believe that they shouldn’t have hired me in the first place and wasted my time. I believe that it’s a great workplace if you already have prior experience and knowledge, it’s not a good place if you’re just starting out.

Another cooperation taking advantage of vet nurses. Highly toxic working culture. Lots of gossiping, and doctors are praised for treating their nurses horribly. Overworked most days and given the most un healthy of foods daily to keep you groggy and depressed throughout the day. Candy, highly processed foods and no actual snacks that are good for you. Every one will sit on their phone while one or 2 people clean when there is downtime and when these people take the time to sit down, they are reprimanded. Team morale is based off of passive aggressive remarks and a distrust of doctors in their nurses. Clients are allowed to yell and treat staff poorly while they are given free exams, comped services, and reason to keep treating the team poorly. Nurses and assistants are the least taken care of as some of the customer service representatives are paid more than the medical team without any prior knowledge of veterinary topics or protocols. Clients are constantly told the wrong prices, miscommunication  between the clients and doctors where several things have been missed or miscommunicated. They are also allowed to work you through your lunch. Overall, a very stressful environment that gives little to no support from management. Also employee parking is non existent at the LoDo location and cars are known to be stolen at the Highlands and RiNo location. The other locations also have no employee parking and you are expected to walk several blocks to expected location. Management doesn't care for your safety or overall well being.

I previously worked for a company that very blatantly didn’t care about the employees, clients, or pets. Working at Sploot has been a completely different experience. The pets are top priority and it shows in the care the doctors give. Our leadership does their best to make sure employees don’t get too burnt out, often reaching out and offering support. I’ve been able to easily get time off for family emergencies, or even just vacation. 

Ive been with Sploot since it was just the Highlands location in Denver, and have watched the growth since that point. While the growth does sometimes feel like it adds a lot of additional work, the management team is quick to hire people to alleviate that. They listen to feedback, and often implement new ways to help balance the workload. 

Benefits/compensation are great for the industry. The pay is fair for the work, and is often much higher than other clinics in the area. Pet benefits are generous, including free vaccines for dogs, many free blood work panels, free X-rays, etc. (We’re also offered bereavement time for the passing of our pets.)

The PPX team not only works well together, but we can have fun while doing it. We have a hard job, but we can lean on each other for support when needed. There’s always someone willing to help!

No job is perfect, but working for a company that cares about their people, with a team that cares about what they do, has been a much better experience. 

When I started here, I was so excited. Everyone was so nice and willing to help teach. I quickly became comfortable in my environment (no more new job jitters) and I raved about it to anyone who would listen. Stocked fridge, snacks for the clients, purely focused on patient care. Then management started making poor changes, like no more snacks for clients, less money for employee snacks. They are now basically having their employees begging for reviews so they can get lunch vouchers BUT your name has to be mentioned or tough luck. They have double standards for a lot of things as well, some people can get away with things, while others are called and fired over voicemail, VOICEMAIL. I have seen it happen to multiple coworkers who were let go. They tell you that you are doing a good job to your face, then go behind your back and give bad reviews or talk bad about you. It is just very sad that this place is going downhill because it really was an amazing place to work when I first started, not so much anymore. I used to recommend working here, not so much anymore. They are honestly making bad financial decisions, like opening up more clinics but cannot even properly stock the ones they already have, so there are clinics that stay closed half the week. They also do not tell you in the beginning that when you are hired at a clinic, they will still send you other clinics that can be up to over an hour from your home. Just beware if you go here, and if you do, I hope it goes well for you.
