Job description

About Heartstrings Pet Hospice

Heartstrings Pet Hospice is a privately owned, growing in-home euthanasia and end-of-life care practice founded on our core values of Compassion, Dignity, and Respect. Unlike corporate or private-equity-backed organizations, our focus is on people-our families, our patients, and our medical team.

We are Hiring DVM Team Members in Colorado Springs and Surrounding Area's and we are seeking exceptional Associate Veterinarians who want to practice meaningful medicine in a supportive, values-driven environment.

At Heartstrings, you will never be asked to sign a non-compete agreement.
We believe great veterinarians stay because they're valued-not because they're restricted.

Position Overview

As an Associate Veterinarian with Heartstrings Pet Hospice, you will provide compassionate, gentle in-home euthanasia, hospice, and palliative care. You'll work independently in the field while being fully supported by a collaborative medical leadership team, dedicated Veterinary Care Specialists (VCS), and strong operational infrastructure.

This role offers Flexibility, Autonomy, Emotional Fulfillment, and a low-stress medical environment, allowing you to focus on what matters most-supporting pets and families during life's most meaningful moments.

Why Heartstrings?Private Family Owned - Not Corporate
  • Direct access to leadership and medical decision-makers
  • No private equity or volume-driven pressure

  • Support families through the end-of-life process with empathy, patience, and professionalism
  • Maintain accurate and timely medical documentation
  • Collaborate with Heartstrings' medical leadership and support teams
  • Participate in ongoing training, education, and clinical development
Ideal Candidate
  • Compassionate, emotionally intelligent, and client-focused
  • Comfortable working independently in the field
  • Strong communicator during emotionally sensitive situations
  • Seeking meaningful, purpose-driven veterinary work
  • Values autonomy, flexibility, and a supportive team environment
  • Interested in a long-term role with a privately owned practice

Experience in hospice, palliative care, or Fear Free certification is a plus but not required. Comprehensive training is provided.

Requirements

Veterinarian Core Responsibilities
  • Provide in-home euthanasia and hospice care for geriatric and terminally ill pets
  • Guide families in making end-of-life decisions for their pets
  • Build relationships with local veterinary clinics, serving as an extension of their excellent care

  • Active (or ability to obtain) veterinary license in the state of practice
  • Must possess a valid U.S. driver's license

  • Ability to lift up to 50 lbs unassisted and up to 100 lbs with assistance
