Job Description & How to Apply Below

Position: Telehealth Veterinarian (Remote)

Fetch Dx, from QSM Diagnostics, makes mail-in diagnostic kits that let pet parents collect samples at home — urine, ear and skin swabs, feces, wounds — and send them to our lab. Results for urinalysis, cytology, fecal testing, and culture & sensitivity come back in about 24–48 hours.

We're adding telehealth so every result reaches a veterinarian who can interpret it and act. Our goal: faster answers, fewer unnecessary antibiotics, and better follow-up on UTIs, ear infections, parasites, and chronic conditions like kidney disease and diabetes.

The Role

We're looking for licensed veterinarians to join our telehealth team as independent contractors. You'll consult with pet parents by video and messaging, interpret Fetch Dx lab results, and prescribe targeted treatment when it's clinically appropriate.

This role suits vets who want flexible extra work, an evidence-based practice built on real diagnostics, and a hand in shaping how at-home testing and virtual care work together.

What You'll Do
  • Hold virtual consults with pet parents over video and asynchronous messaging
  • Review history, symptoms, photos, and Fetch Dx results (urinalysis, cytology, fecal, culture & sensitivity) submitted through our platform
  • Establish a valid VCPR where state law requires it, and decide whether telehealth is right for the case or in-person care is needed
  • Recommend evidence-based treatment, including prescriptions guided by culture & sensitivity to support antimicrobial stewardship
  • Recommend follow-up or recheck kits so treatment can be confirmed without another clinic trip
  • Explain results in plain, compassionate language pet parents can act on
  • Document every encounter thoroughly in our EMR
  • Flag urgent findings and refer to emergency or primary care when needed
  • Work with Fetch Dx's clinical leadership and share feedback on protocols, kits, and the platform
You'll Thrive Here If You Have
  • A DVM/VMD from an AVMA-accredited school, or have completed the requirements to practice in the U.S. (ECFVG or PAVE)
  • An active veterinary license in at least one state where Fetch Dx offers telehealth*
  • A license in good standing, with no disciplinary or malpractice actions
  • 3+ years of post-graduate small animal clinical experience
  • An active DEA registration, or willingness to obtain one if required for prescribing in your state
  • A quiet, professional workspace and reliable high-speed internet for video calls
  • Clear, warm written and verbal communication
  • Comfort working independently with telehealth tools and an EMR
Bonus Points
  • Experience in telemedicine, urgent care, or emergency medicine
  • Strong background in clinical pathology, cytology, or microbiology
  • Special interest in dermatology, otitis, urinary disease, or antimicrobial stewardship
  • Licenses in multiple states
  • Evening and weekend availability
What Makes This Role Different
  • Results in hand — many consults start with lab data, not guesswork
  • Work from anywhere — fully remote, no commute, no clinic shifts
  • Set your own schedule — pick the hours that fit around your life or current job
  • Paid per consult — $50-$80 depending on case and experience
