Toronto, ON | Full-time or Part-time | $150,000 – $170,000 + Signing Bonus + Growth Opportunities

About Us

At Village Gate Animal Hospital, we are not just a veterinary clinic, we are a small and mighty team tucked inside a charming three-floor house in one of Toronto’s most vibrant neighborhoods. We are a close-knit group of enthusiastic animal lovers, driven by collaboration, compassion, and a shared mission to deliver exceptional veterinary care with heart.

Our culture is built on support, trust, and growth. We laugh often, support each other through busy days, and celebrate every success, from a perfectly executed dental to a new puppy’s first vaccine visit. 

We believe great veterinary care happens when a team supports each other, communicates openly, and genuinely enjoys coming to work every day. Here, you will find a positive environment where new ideas are encouraged, mentorship is part of our daily routine, and your contributions truly matter.
