Virtual Care Veterinarian (Remote)

Care when it counts — from wherever you practice. At Dutch, we’re on a mission to make high-quality veterinary care more accessible, affordable, and supportive — for both pets and the professionals who care for them. We believe care shouldn’t be limited by clinic hours or commute distance. With Dutch, veterinarians can connect with clients for real advice, real prescriptions, and real impact — all from the comfort of home, supported by tools like our in-house EMR and AI-assisted SOAP notes that help you focus on patient care. Backed by leading investors, Dutch has the stability and resources to support our doctors in delivering the highest standard of care in telemedicine. We're currently seeking experienced veterinarians to join our growing telemedicine team as independent contractors. This is a flexible, remote opportunity ideal for veterinarians looking to pick up additional work, explore virtual care, and shape the future of veterinary medicine while maintaining clinical autonomy.

What You’ll Do

Conduct virtual consultations with pet parents via video and asynchronous messaging

Review medical history, symptoms, and treatment concerns shared through Dutch’s digital platform

Establish a valid VCPR (when required) and determine whether telemedicine is appropriate for the case

Provide evidence-based treatment recommendations, including prescriptions when clinically appropriate

Communicate clearly, compassionately, and with care in every interaction

Document all encounters thoroughly using Dutch’s EMR

Collaborate with Dutch’s clinical leadership team as needed

What Makes This Role Unique

Flexible scheduling — Work from anywhere, with scheduling that fits your life

Remote-only — No commuting, no clinics, no shifts

Pay per consult — Average $64–$80 /hour depending on appointment volume

Vet-designed platform — Built to support clinical focus, not increase admin burden

You’d Thrive in This Role If You Have:

Graduated from an AVMA-accredited veterinary school or completed requirements to practice in the United States

An active license in one or more of the states where Dutch operates*

A license in good standing with no malpractice or disciplinary actions

5+ years post-graduate clinical experience

A quiet, professional space and reliable internet for video consults

Strong written and verbal communication skills

A collaborative, compassionate approach to care

Comfort using telehealth tools and managing consults independently

What to Expect This is a 1099 contractor role with no set hours — though vets who thrive here typically offer 10–15 hours/week with a preference for evening and/or weekend availability. You’ll be supported by our Clinical Director, Vet Support team, and a streamlined platform that helps you focus on what you do best: providing excellent care to pets and peace of mind to their people. ¹ To prescribe medication, Dutch vets must be licensed in one or more of the following states: AL, AR, AZ, CA, CO, DC, DE, FL, GA, ID, IL, IN, KS, LA, ME, MD, MA, MI, MN, MO, MS, NE, NH, NJ, NY, ND, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SD, TN, TX, VA, VT, WA, WV, WY.
