At Animal Emergency of Temple-Belton, we’re not just another ER clinic—we’re a team that shows up for each other. We’re proud of our tight‑knit, collaborative culture, where everyone—from doctors to support staff—pitches in, helps out, and makes each shift feel a little bit easier.

We’re currently looking for an Overnight Emergency Veterinarian to join our dedicated crew. If you’re passionate about emergency medicine, thrive in fast‑paced environments, and want to practice with autonomy, compassion, and purpose—we’d love to meet you.

As a veterinarian‑owned and operated clinic, we understand the demands of this profession. That’s why we’re building something different—a supportive, life‑first workplace that empowers you to grow, deliver exceptional care, and still have a life outside of the clinic.

Animal Emergency of Temple‑Belton was founded by a coalition of local veterinarians from Temple, Belton, Killeen, Harker Heights, Gatesville, and surrounding rural communities who shared a vision: to provide high‑quality, after‑hours emergency care to Central Texas pet owners when regular clinics are closed.

We are open evenings, weekends, and holidays to deliver the critical care our community depends on—and we do it with a team‑first mentality and shared commitment to doing right by pets, clients, and each other.

• Generous sign‑on bonus + relocation assistance
• Flexible overnight scheduling to support your work‑life integration
• Ample paid time off so you can truly rest and recharge
• Student loan assistance
• Tailored mentorship & leadership development programs
• Comprehensive health, dental, vision, and mental health coverage
• Wellness & lifestyle perks to support the whole you
