At Erie Animal Hospital, we’re proud to be a trusted name in companion animal care since the 1950s. Our recently renovated hospital offers a welcoming, modern environment with six spacious exam rooms — including a cat-only room and separate feline lobby — ensuring comfort for both pets and their people.

• Collaborative, Experienced Team: Work alongside 3 dedicated DVMs — Dr. Diane Ventrello, Dr. Brian Ulrich, and Dr. Raylene Hinley-Schroeck — supported by a tenured group of licensed technicians, assistants, and front-desk staff. Most team members have been with us for 5+ years, creating a drama-free, family-like culture.

• Supportive Environment: We value communication and growth through biweekly team meetings and lunch-and-learns. You’ll have access to structured mentorship, making this a new grad–friendly hospital where your career can truly flourish.

• Modern Equipment: Digital full-body and dental radiography, IDEXX in-house and reference labs, digital ultrasound, Cornerstone practice management software, and full anesthesia monitoring systems.

• Flexible Scheduling: Enjoy a four-day work week with only every third Saturday rotation. Our doctors support each other with flexibility and autonomy in scheduling.

Our structured mentorship program ensures new graduates receive hands-on support from experienced veterinarians in medicine, surgery, and client communication. You’ll have guided training, regular check-ins, and a gradual transition to independence — all within a supportive and encouraging environment designed to help you thrive.

Erie Animal Hospital isn’t just a workplace—it’s a team that truly cares. We believe in balancing excellent medical care with a people-first culture where your well-being and professional satisfaction come first. You’ll have the clientele base to stay busy (enough for five DVMs!) while maintaining strong compliance and client relationships.

We foster an atmosphere of respect, collaboration, and humor — where your voice matters, your skills are appreciated, and your growth is supported.
