Join a Founder-Led Practice Redefining End-of-Life Care
Imagine a veterinary role that reconnects you with why you became a veterinarian. At EverPaw, you'll provide compassionate in-home euthanasia and end-of-life care to families across Naperville and Chicago's western suburbs. Meaningful work, without the clinic grind or the burnout.
We're a small, founder-led mobile practice building a new standard for end-of-life care, and we're hiring a veterinarian to help shape it from the ground up.
Compensation: Choose the Schedule That Fits Your Life
- 5-day (full-time): $160,000. Includes 2 alternating full weekends per month
- 4-day: $125,000. Includes weekend rotation
- 3-day: $95,000. Includes 2+ peak days (Mon/Fri/Sat/Sun)
Plus bonus opportunities. Our 3-day schedule pays more than many full-time in-home roles.
