BALDIVIS, ROCKINGHAM, SOUTHERN PERTH, WA - SMALL ANIMAL/EMERGENCY
Dial '000' we have an emergency!
Hi, I'm Dr Danae.
I am co-owner and Practice Manager of Baldivis Vet Hospital. It's a state of the art animal hospital providing 24/7 care for the pets of Baldivis and surrounding areas.
And we have an "emergency" of our own right now!
Two of our fantastic Vets have left us for new adventures.
We are disappointed (we thought they'd stay forever!)...
But equally excited for them and excited to welcome some new members to our team.
Now, if you have previous Emergency and Critical care experience you'll know how things go...
Although the major difference here is you won’t be a number on a corporate file...
You'll be an integral team member joining a family run clinic...!
But if you are a Vet looking to try something new we are keen to chat too!
We all know the word “emergency” can make vets a little nervous...
What if we told you that emergency medicine is the most fun...?
Yes, it does involve shifts outside the usual 9-5...
But you'll work fewer hours and make more money...!
We truly operate as a team...
We simply couldn't do what we do without the efforts of a great team...
You become part of a team that has...
Highly trained support staff you can trust with your patients...
As well as support from experienced Vets, we have a referral surgeon and ultrasonographer.
Help is always available for when things get tricky!
Why else will you will love us..?
A salary well above industry standards...
No on call... time away from work is your own...
3-4 day working week with the option of full-time or part-time hours...
Alternating weekends that can be rostered around your plans, so you don’t have to miss out...
Accommodation within walking distance of the hospital can be provided if required.
Please click here to see photos!
So, we reckon we are pretty good… But don't just believe us...!
Here is what one of our vets has to say...
"I’ve had the pleasure of working at Baldivis Emergency Vets for the past six years as an emergency vet, and it has been an absolutely fantastic experience. The team here is nothing short of amazing – incredibly supportive, dedicated, and always ready to help each other out.
One of the best parts of the job is the excitement and variety; every shift brings something new and interesting, so it's never boring. I was personally so sick of vaccines and skin consults in GP. Plus, with evening shifts, you get your days free, which is a huge bonus. And let's not forget the great pay. Vets would race to claim the overnight shifts as they were paid so well.
Baldivis Emergency Vets is a wonderful place to work, and I’ve enjoyed my time there immensely. Leaving was the hardest decision I’ve ever made, and I only chose to go so I could start my own business. If it weren't for that, I would have happily stayed.
If you’re considering a position here, I can’t recommend it highly enough. It’s a fantastic place to work, learn, and make a real difference, all while being part of an awesome team."

Requirements of the Role:
- Bachelor Veterinary Science or Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (or equivalent) with full practising rights in Australia
- Willingness to work nights and weekends – this is all we do!
- This position is ideal for a general practice veterinarian seeking to transition into an Emergency setting, but is nervous about being overwhelmed. It is also a great 'toe in' for those who are unsure if shift work would suit them.
