The two-way street

What you can expect from us

A workplace where you can bring your skills, your ideas, and your whole self — with owners who know your name, share what they earn above their target, and will never make you the first solution to a hard quarter.

Known Valued Supported Shared in the success Told the truth

What we ask of you

Live the PACK — with pets, clients, and each other, especially on the hard days.

Tell the truth fast — about mistakes, problems, and what you need. Honesty is the whole system.

Help each other grow — teach what you know, ask what you don't, and celebrate progress out loud.

Protect the hometown heart — you are the reason your community trusts this clinic. Guard that.

Our values, in practice

What the PACK looks like on a Tuesday

Values only work when everyone in the building can hold the rest of us to them — founders included. Here's what each one looks like, and what it never looks like.

P

Personal

Hometown heart, always — we show up for the towns that built us.

Knowing clients and pets by name, and their stories

Showing up — events, schools, shelters, hard moments

Treating a visit like a transaction

A

Advocate

Care without pressure — families decide with full information and zero guilt.

Presenting options with honest trade-offs

Respecting every family's budget without judgment

Recommending care to hit a number

C

Compassion

For every pet and every person — teammates included.

Meeting fear, grief, and hard days with gentleness

Extending the same grace to coworkers as to clients

Saving compassion for when it's convenient

K

Keep Growing

In medicine, in people, as a company — the three hold each other up.

Staying current so our medicine keeps pace with what's possible

Treating no role as a dead end

Defending a habit with “that's how we've always done it”

How the money works, honestly

The ownership promise

Most companies keep their finances a mystery to their teams. We'd rather tell you exactly how it works — because you're part of it.

The promise

Our target is 15% net profit. Everything above that threshold goes back to our team.

Not to outside investors. Not to a fund. To the people who earned it.

Where we've actually been

For most of our first ten years we've operated in the 6–12% net profit range. We share the real number because honesty means telling you the real one — we're building toward the target, not pretending we've hit it.

And what we did anyway

In 2025 — before reaching the target — we issued our first-ever profit-sharing contribution: 6.56% to eligible employees, into their 401(k)s. We didn't wait until sharing was easy. We started because it was right.

A benefits story that only moves one direction

The good stuff, in plain terms

Over the years we've been proud to add health insurance, short-term disability, long-term disability, and life insurance — and we're not done. Our goal is to keep growing how much of what we earn returns to the people who earn it.

No role here is a dead end

The doctor track

From extern to Associate DVM to Lead DVM to Medical Director — with a mentor beside you at every step, and gradual autonomy instead of the deep end.

The leadership track

Our Manager in Training pathway grows clinic leaders from within — real pathways from the front desk to leading a clinic, because leaders here are grown, not just hired.

In writing since 2023

You have permission to make honest mistakes without judgment or ridicule — and the right to refuse any act you believe is unethical, full stop. Both promises have been in our Code of Conduct & Culture since 2023. This page carries them forward.
