Vaccine Vets
Part-Time | Primarily Remote | California
Compensation: $2,500-$3,500 per month, depending on experience and scope

Experienced, retired, and semi-retired veterinarians are encouraged to apply.

About Vaccine Vets

Vaxxinity Vets provides accessible preventive veterinary care through high-volume mobile vaccine clinics. Our RVT-led clinic model operates under veterinarian-approved protocols, written authorizations, standing orders, and clearly defined safety and emergency procedures.

We are seeking an experienced California-licensed veterinarian to serve as our Managing Veterinarian and provide clinical leadership, regulatory oversight, protocol review, and scheduled weekend phone coverage.

This position is well suited to an experienced veterinarian seeking a predictable and flexible way to remain professionally involved without returning to a traditional full-time hospital schedule.

Schedule and Work Structure

Regular weekend availability from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Coverage dates and clinic locations scheduled in advance
Primarily remote phone coverage for qualifying RVT-led mobile clinics
No overnight coverage
No routine surgery, general appointments, or client telemedicine
One scheduled virtual meeting each week
Occasional onsite participation when mutually scheduled or legally required
Administrative staff prepares protocols, records, and authorization documents for veterinarian review

Primary Responsibilities

Serve as Managing Veterinarian or managing licensee for designated Vaxxinity Vets locations.
Remain quickly and easily available by telephone during assigned RVT-led clinic shifts.
Provide prompt clinical direction for patient eligibility questions, adverse reactions, dosing concerns, treatment holds, medication errors, emergency transfers, and other matters requiring veterinarian input.
Direct clinic staff to delay treatment, decline treatment, transfer a patient, or stop clinic operations when clinically appropriate.
Conduct a weekly virtual meeting to review protocol updates, operational changes, clinical incidents, and quality-improvement opportunities.
Review, approve, and periodically update vaccine, parasite-control, emergency, patient-screening, and adverse-reaction protocols.
Review standing orders, formularies, client disclosures, medical-record procedures, and emergency plans.
Review RVT training materials, competency requirements, quizzes, and training documentation.
Review the organization’s RVT authorization program and execute required authorizations and assumption-of-risk documents for RVTs personally supervised by the veterinarian.
Review unusual cases, adverse reactions, medication errors, client complaints, and other clinical concerns.
Assist with Veterinary Medical Board compliance, inspections, premises permits, and corrective actions when applicable.
Provide practical guidance that supports a quick, professional, and legally compliant clinic flow.

Required Qualifications

Active California veterinarian license in good standing
At least five years of clinical veterinary practice
Strong knowledge of preventive medicine, vaccination protocols, parasite control, and emergency response
Experience supervising or collaborating with RVTs
Ability to remain reliably available during assigned weekend coverage hours
Strong clinical judgment and clear written and verbal communication
Comfortable reviewing electronic records and communicating by phone, text, email, and video meeting
Review clinical protocols, standing orders, and RVT authorization documents

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with high-volume vaccine clinics, mobile clinics, shelter medicine, community medicine, or preventive-care programs
Familiarity with California’s RVT-agent and VCPR requirements
Experience developing or reviewing clinical protocols and staff training programs
Previous experience as a managing licensee, medical director, practice owner, or supervising veterinarian
Interest in a stable, long-term, limited-scope leadership position

Compensation

Monthly compensation ranges from $2,500 to $3,500, depending on:

Veterinary and leadership experience
Number of managed locations
Number of scheduled weekend coverage shifts
Expected clinic volume
Final administrative and clinical responsibilities

The final agreement will clearly define the number of locations, coverage schedule, included meetings, response expectations, and scope of work.

Pay: $2,500.00 - $3,500.00 per month

Benefits:

Flexible schedule

Work Location: Hybrid remote in South Gate, CA 90280
